i have no issues playing the game, with eac + proton enabled the game is quite fun and i like the guns, movement is nice also, if your looking for a battlefield game this could be it for you

gamescope -w 1920 -h 1080 --force-grab-cursor --backend=sdl --fullscreen -- %command%
None of the window modes properly capture the cursor on multi monitor setup. Used gamescope to fix it
Mouse capture doesn't work on multi monitor setups

He probado, Experimental, Proton 9, 8, fix, y con el que parece funcionar muy bien es con GE-Proton9-20
gamemoderun %command%
Algún tiron leve, pero mejora mucho con GE-Pronton9-20
Con la version de GE-Proton9-20 es con la que mejor funciona de todas las pruebas que he realizado
Works out of box. After latest update game use again EAC and works on Linux. Make sure have you installed BattlEye & EAC Runtime in Steam.

With most of the game you have to tinker youll either love it or hate it. I dont mind if I have to tinker with a game. You may not.
had to read some tex near chat or with in but i was playing at a lower resolution and forgot to turn on scaling options on the steam deck its self
some community made controls didn't work.
When using the right bumper on controler it displays a menu and when its closed sometimes the games stops for a few seconds. The same menu if not mapped correctlly by default displays pc inputs and will not allow you to use your controler( depending on your controler mapping)
Graphics is smooth on Presets MAX FPS and Balanced; Resolution tested on 1280 x 800/ 1280 x 720 and 1024 x 768. NOT Docked

Does Voicechat even exist in this Game? I tried to make it function. But nothing worked out.
Only 60-80 FPS are reached. Very rare stuttering lowring to a second of 5 FPS dropdown.
To low Player count.
Dynamic Resolution: 50 Sharpen: 50 Textures: Medium Meshes:Medium Postprocessing :High View-distance:High Anti-Aliasing: High

The game itself has issues but nothing game breaking. The playerbase is small but when you get a match it is fun. I had 300+ hours on windows no i get to play it again after 2 years so im hyped.

Since the change of development team and game launcher, the game finally launches! However, there are still optimization issues.
Like on windows, the game optimisation is pretty bad but on linux the game have big stutter issues.
Depending on your version of Proton, you will experience more or less server kicks (no crashes). I recommend using Proton Experimental or GE-Proton to limit server kicks.
Be attentive to the version of Proton you are using, as it can resolve the kick issues when starting a game.

After the recent update and move to SteamCDN and new launcher the game runs out of the box including multiplayer

I just added gamemode and but it also runs without it.

Instalando desde Steam, pero lanzandolo desde Heroic logra iniciar pero queda en la pantalla de autorizacion.
Error on startup. Mail.ru Anti-Cheat can't run game on Linux.
No arranca
Se descarga el instalador y se abre. Cuando se termina de descargar todo y le das a jugar, no hace nada.
Mail.ru Anti-Cheat won't allow for the game to open or work on Linux.
If you really want to play this, best bet is a Windows VM or dual boot.
Game would not launch.
Game does not launch
Installs without issue, Does not launch.
The failure to launch is related to the switch from EAC to MRAC, currently Mail.ru hasn't released any info on a Proton/Wine compatable binary for their anti-cheat. Until that is released, this game is DOA on Proton.

Game sucessfully installs through the launcher, but does not launch.
Game Start Error after you download the game from the launcher and try to join (start). It list the path to the exe

You can install the launcher and the game itself, but when you press the PLAY button it shows you some general error.
It's a shame because WW3 looks like a super fun game, and I really wanted to play it. Also I found out that you can launch the game on Bottles with GE-Proton, however the furthest you will get is a loading screen because (I think) the game is not able to connect to your Steam and my.games launcher.
Inoperable
I have attempted to play WW3, but the game does not launch. I can get into the launcher, but that is as far as it will go. Upon clicking "PLAY" I was presented a general error.
I tinkered with the game a bit in Lutris, trying to get it to launch with different runners such as "Steam" and "WINE" but was not successful. I will attempt to install and run it again when the game goes FTP.

Does not run, even with steam proton.
Game sadly doesn't even launch for me.

CBT Beta. MY.GAMES launcher. Unable to launch the game due to a generic error with the game executable. No support about it.
In addition, confirmation of use of MRAC anticheat. No Linux support then, unplayable :c

It starts the My.Games launcher but when pressing Play button it will have an General failure: WW3-Win64-Shipping.exe
Sad because it worked in Veteran Alpha test.
bummer the last reports where probably with disabled anticheat
low FPS (my eyes are burning)
It's like constant low FPS and some actions in game make the FPS drop even more
FPS drops at some actions (e. g. firing gun or get hit)
Game was stuttering a decent bit
Game used to have EAC. Im not sure if EAC is currently disabled or if they actually enabled it for proton.
[This is for PTE test relaunch version] EAC seems to be gone now, runs quite well given how in-work it is.
This could be due to test version
Some Stuttering
Could be due to early version of the game
Game will only run on PTE version for now, not base game. If devs add EAC, game might not work.
Veteran Closed Beta. Install the MY.GAMES launcher correctly, and works perfectly. Everything works perfectly in-game.
Error: anti cheat error. Make sure game was started with EAC launcher.

Was at least able to launch into the menu, and managed to even load into a map and play alone during the waiting times, but now, you are directly stuck into the menu, with an EAC error, due to apparently, not launching the game with the launcher. Still blocked by the Anti-cheat.

It's even start up! Even showing 60 fps in menu, but cause of AntiCheat you can't go forward from start screen.


Game uses Easy Anti Cheat. Does not pass error screen.


Has previously stated, the game is able to launch without any issues, you can do everything you want in the menus, but once you launch a game, it lost the connection to the host everytime. The first time, it has been able to load to the map screen while loading the game sounds in the background (meaning that it did load the current game, atleast partially), but before i can select any thing, it redirect me back to the menu with a host connection lost error message. If you aren´t that lucky, it might even just redirect you back without even seeing the map screen. Tested aswell to connect using the server browser, exact same issue.

The game starts and you can customize your loadouts, change settings, etc. but when I try to join a match the game either loses connection to the server and tries to reconnect or crashes

Unplayable because of Easy Anti Cheat


Does not launch. It starts with 20-30 seconds of a black screen and then it goes to the title screen with: Connecting to servers before crashing to desktop. It could be related to the Easy Anti-Cheat. Requested a Steam refund.



Game starts, but crashes at connecting to servers. It uses EASY ANTI-CHEAT
