Never ending loading screen.
For now the game is not working.
Game is not able to get past initial loading screen, it has stopped working for steam deck ever since their summer update
Tried many different versions and paunch options, none of them work.
Not able to load to main menu
Game no longer loads main menu
Also tried Proton Experimental. Not sure how long it's been unplayable. Can't seem to find it where others said it wasn't working.
Lag right before the start of races due to shader loading makes race starts unplayable. I've only observed this on this rig; it's fine on my Steam Deck
realizar um pequno ajuste.
At the start of every game there is a massive drop in fps, then it depends on the map.
The in-game videos are not working
Proton GE
Still only works with Proton 7, tried both Experimental and 8.0-4
RADV_PERFTEST=GPL %command%
You NEED to switch to Proton 7 to play this game. Or the anti cheat WON'T RUN
FPS : 40
Watts : 8
GPU Clock Freq : 1000
/// /// /// ///
FPS is mainly for longer playtimes, the games can run at 60fps no problem. Also, cranked up graphics from default.
The game's anti-cheat "Nexon Game Security" does not launch with Proton 8 as of now. Using Proton 7 or GE-Proton7 allows the anti-cheat to run when launching the game. This issue began with Season 2 launch.
RADV_PERFTEST=GPL
The game run smooth, but sometime stutters (shader compilation maybe?)
The game hangs on tutorial (movies/video cannot play) on original Proton. It just display color bars
gamemoderun mangohud obs-gamecapture RADV_PERFTEST=GPL %command%
The first match on a map causes stuttering due to shader loading. Adding RADV_PERFTEST=gpl fixes the issue on Radeon GPUs
Worked exactly as expected. Searched for friends username in game found it, added to party. repeat 3 more times, then queued for games with a full party and it worked no problem. It was great. In game voice chat worked out of the box.
Without GE-Proton7-43 the game won't let you connect to network and the game does not run without network connection unfortunately. Any other proton, including any earlier versions of GE don't work.
Proton 7.0-6: I was able to log in, and choose a username, then it froze. Proton Experimental, 7.0-5, GE-Proton7-43: game did not launch.
Got furthest on Proton 7.0-6. Doesn't work so far, but i will keep trying
The first 5 or so races had stuttering problems. Seemed like shader compilation stutters. After those races it got better and has mostly stuck to 60fps
The first few races stutter. But it runs great online after the first few races.
Requires proton ge. You get a network error if you launch the game without switching to ge.
Multiplayer works fine, may stutter a bit in the beggining due to shaders
DXVK_ASYNC=1 %COMMAND%
Launching using official Proton versions will give you "Terminate network connection" when login.
To fix that:
- Install and assign GE-Proton7-43 using a program called ProtonUp-Qt
- In LAUNCH OPTIONS under Properties -> GENERAL enter "DXVK_ASYNC=1 %COMMAND%". You should now be able to login and play the game.
Notes:
- Steam Overlay does not work.
- Steam screenshot key only works once per session. After one screenshot you can't take more unless restart the game.
- Pictures taken in Studio View are not saved on Steam, they are instead located in /home//.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/1184140/pfx/dosdevices/c:/users/steamuser/AppData/Local/KartDrift/Saved/Screenshots/
Some videos were a bit jittery, but graphics overall worked fine, as did the rest of the game. PTL!
On occasion when playing startup video and I think also cutscenes, there were jitters.
Game does start up and lets you go to the title screen. However, you'd need to switch to GE-Proton before the game can let you log in.
DXVK_ASYNC=1 %COMMAND%
Lobby UI can be a little hard to read on the Deck's screen. Most of the more important UI elements are big enough, however. In-game UI is perfectly fine.
Game hitches a lot, using the above-mentioned launch command seemed to have solved SOME of the hitching issues. Though I'm uncertain how much of that was placebo.
Hitching may be an issue as it could make other players seem choppy. Again, the above-mentioned command seemed to take the edge off.
With GE-Proton7-43, the game boots up, lets you log in, and can be played, which is a huge change from the Global Racing Test where it wouldn't even let you in at all.
The game's menus are completely navigatable with controller, fortunately, so there's no need for a keyboard control layout, at least, as far as I can see atm.
While it does seem to hold 60 FPS fairly well, I do recommend at least allowing tearing to ensure it maintains that mark (as well as reducing input latency, if any).
The launch command did help with the odd hitching issues I had upon inital testing but, again, I don't know if it does anything to help. That said, it's at least worth a try if you're also running into issues.
Seems to work just fine, despite the custom anti-cheat. Experienced a few crashes, I am still not sure what the cause might be.
Might crash before joining an online match
The game works great even online. Other version of proton works as well like proton next and glorious eggrolls ( except the actual proton 7.0-5 ). Given that proton next 7.0-6 launch the game with eac no problem, the game will soon be able to launch straight from steam tinker free
This game is region locked. nexon game security antichat passed. game runs well.
因为游戏锁区所以没法登陆，ngs与proton兼容性良好。可以放心玩兄弟萌。
Have issues creating a Nexon account.
Lag, but unknown if it's steam deck or their servers at the moment.
Definitely playable out of the box.
Noticed a few stutters during first lap of a new track but cleared up after that.
Had to use the latest gloriousegg roll proton to get pass the login but worked after that
Trava na tela de carregamento do tutorial obrigatório.
É possível loggar, porém após isso, o jogo em tese nos jogaria para um tutorial obrigatório, porém simplesmente durante a fase de carregamento o jogo trava e fica com o som repetindo, e se eu fechar o jogo, o som do jogo destrava o som por 3 segundos e é possível ouvir o barulho do motor.
Can't login to play
Failed to log in to KartRider: Drift. - Network connection failure
Does NOT launch at all
Tested with: Proton 7.0-4
Tested with: Proton Experimental
Tested with: Proton-GE 7-31-1
Using: KartRider: Drift PlayTest
Title card movies play fine. Title screen shows. Cannot log in, possibly due to the anti-cheat.
As of the opening of the Global Racing Test, it is impossible to get past the title screen. According to the official Discord, Linux is currently unsupported, which means that this title is unplayable on an unmodified Steam Deck (read: using only SteamOS) for the time being.
