Runs like nativly, no tinkering needed
Multiplayer also works! 47 hours and pretty big battles, and not a single crash. Take that, Total War!

Alt-tabbing from full screen on KDE works, but you must click on another screen a second time to really switch.
None of the cinematic videos played with any Proton version that I tried.
None of the intro/ending videos played in any Proton version I tried. Everything else seems to work. I think there are only two videos, though.
Basic gameplay is good, good performance, although sadly it's CPU single-threaded. The GPU seems to be pretty well utilized.
On this hardware, in a typical skirmish game, I am getting average 70 FPS with a dip down to 37 FPS in the 1% low, and then down to 17 FPS in the 0.1% low, so 17 is about worst frame drop I get.
Multiplayer works, although it may take half an hour to even find a game... and that was when there were 2000 players online.
Out of the Box ... nice :)
Ran well considering this is Beta. I will hold off on any performance issues until this game is released.
Had to disable iGPU
echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:06\:00.0/remove
Otherwise game is unable to run on Nvidia chip and tries to run on Built in Radeon chip. Regular way with
__NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia %command%
Don't allow to force game to use nVidia.
Game is too slow on Nvidia 3070 on medium settings is normal GPS on hight FPS are too small. Not linux issue, just game is poorly optimized.
Looking at game logs it sees two videocards and choses one with more RAM which happens to be integrated one.
In case when I disable nvidia DRM it it causes bad performace. In case when NVIDIA is in DRM mode (nvidia_drm modeset=1
) and i can use HDMI -- game don't start.
Had to use nvidia_drm modeset=1
(reverse prime) to enable HDMI and then disable integrated AMD gpu.
