Graphics:Heavy Artifacts

Heavy artifacting when enabling bloom on Radeon 5600xt.

Performance:Significant Performance Problems

Stuttering, i.e. frametime instability.

Significant Bugs:

Servers are occassionally down and won't let you play since game is online only.

Stuttering is present even on lowest settings. Game can't hold a constant 60fps to save the life of its developers. It's even worse with VSYNC disabled.

The game still performs just like on windows, all microstutters included, just that now you will see a SARD launcher and icon in the app tray.

ProtonDB calls this a tinkering report when all I did was change to Proton Experimental. 9.0-3 works sometimes, doesn't most of the time. GE9-15 works just as well as Proton Experimental.

Everything that isnt UI is in negative color and really bright. (turning your contrast and brightness down in setting lets you atleast see where you are going)

Give it another week or 2 for new proton versions to come out if your game looks like a nuke just went off.

With the latest patch 30th Sept, I've been able to just fire up the game and play online.

6 months ago

Simply downloaded from Steam and played. The graphics defaulted to low, and DLSS is not available (even though I have an RTX card), but FSR is available, it seems. With a 4070 Ti I am getting around 60FPS on High Settings. Ultra brings it down to aboute 40FPS so I am sticking with High. I see people are online but never encountered any in races. I've heard that's a thing regardless of OS.
