I suspect you already know this, but for anyone curious: for many of the big live service games, Linux/Proton is usually no substitute for Windows - anti-cheat renders them unplayable. MW2, Fortnite, Tarkov, Hunt, PUBG, Day Z and Cycle are some examples. By contrast, Apex and Halo work fine.
I do quite a lot of my gaming on the Steam Deck these days, but have to keep a windows box around for this reason.
Sort of relatedly: does anyone know how well the Unreal Engine 5 editor works on Linux?
- ElegantBeef 4y agoHunt, Dayz(as does Arma3 and Reforger), and The Cycle all work on Linux.
- darkteflon 4y agoHa, had no idea. You’re right, they’re Silver, Gold and Gold respectively on ProtonDB. Don’t know if that’s a recent development or what, but it’s fantastic. Gonna install Hunt and Day Z on the Deck today so I can stare at them in the launcher and imagine how much fun I would have if I could find the time to play them.
- ElegantBeef 4y agoIf you care DayZ was BE enabled back in like October if my memory serves me correctly. The Cycle always supported it through Proton. Hunt recently enabled it like a month ago(finally, HMMMMing on linux is good).
