gamemoderun %command%
Two config steps (launch command and run with proton) and this game works perfectly. Keep in mind I am on XORG due to Mint's Cinnamon desktop - I've played on Wayland and the launch settings were not necessary. With current config, I played 2 hours straight the other day with 0 hiccups, can easily launch, the game runs smoothly, had no issues seeing other people flip-reset on me in platinum!
Singleplayer works with no issues
No tinkering required. I did add some launch options (gamemoderun %command%) for vibes alone.
I played for 2 hours without launch options on medium graphics, animations had a lot of issues with artifacts which means lots for this game
PROTON_HIDE_NVIDIA_GPU=0 PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 VKD3D_CONFIG=dxr gamemoderun %command% -dx12
Lots of artifacts without the launch flags, gone and a lot smoother with.
Could only run at ~80fps without the launch flags but between 140-200 with them.
Really fun game, works well with Linux. Out-of-box experience was pretty good, and with launch flags I got from here it works amazing.
LD_PRELOAD="" unset SDL_VIDEODRIVER; %command%
You need to disable the launcher for this game to work, at least on my setup.
Got to Betas and in the dropdown, select temporary_launcher_workaround.
This caused me a lot of crashes which is super annoying, I also required my friends to join me so every crash meant an annoyed party of gamers having a go at my penguin system.
I found that on Windows I could play at extreme settings, had to switch off some things to play on Linux. Not sure if that was a me issue.
Alt tabbing crashed as often as it didn't, changing graphics caused a crash as well. I would say I didn't previously worry about crashing on Windows.
The game is unfortunately not even launch-able without the Beta option mentioned. However, this is easily remedied. I also read elsewhere that I had to host the game if I wanted to play due to an Anti-Cheat thing. I never tested this, however, I found that the launch options removed my Steam overlay and since alt-tabbing crashed the game sometimes so I found it easier to just tell people to join me rather than work out how to join someone else. Your mileage may vary here. I also only played coop and didn't try Versus.
