Steam Deck10 Reports
You have to make sure something works as a mouse as the trackpad and changing trackpad press to mouse click does it fine. But you need mouse to change to "xbox 360" controller in game and then it works with deck controls.
The game itself isn't demanding so it didn't help much but just kept it from using a little more than it needed. TDP 10-12 GPU CLOCK 800-1000 This was more than enough for 60fps without extra power drain.
I get about 4+ hours from full charge (OLED)
As said before you have to turn on "xbox 360" (controller support)
I had to run protonGE as I think it needs it to use the directx version or something on the first boot
The game runs fine. The only proble is that the assets are not always loading... They take time (2-3 minutes), so for a big part of the stage, we are stuck with their simple low res versions.
It takes 1-2 minutes... (it varies, but its always a pause of more than 15-20 seconds) everytime I enter into a hack device screen, or a vending machine or even when I try to save.
Used above thing to turn on game's controller support, then switched to default layout.
You need to turn on controller support (Xbox 360 controller in Settings).
Game didn't launch at first.
change default configuration layout to use right touchpad as mouse and left click, enable xbox controller ingame and then revert to default if you want, change resolution to 1280*800 and restart the game
right trackpad click as left mouse click
40 fps
Game defaulted to a keyboard and mouse, so only trackpad and R2 worked. In the game I changed it to Xbox 360 controller and it worked fine.
Didn't try any tinkering, but the game closes before I can even see the menus. Just switch to the remastered one, that one play great so far. (Still testing it)
A couple of pop-ups on first install needed to be accepted.
Default resolution wasn't right. Change to 1280x800 windowed to display correctly.
Controller not recognised initially. Use trackpad as mouse to select "Xbox 360 Controller" from the options menu.
Controller support is more wonky compared to the remaster, graphics are worse (no AA at all), and it kept crashing after the first loading screen after the bathysphere intro sequence. I switched to the Bioshock Remastered and it's absolutely flawless.
To go to the menu and be able to mark "play with a controller": Change the right trackpad to "Mouse" and its click to "Left mouse click", after that change just enable and now you can play as a xbox 360
For default the game applies a 1024x768 resolution, change it to 800p resolution and mark the "play on window" then the game will be full screen already.
When new zones are loading the FPS go from 60 to 20
Besides the trackpad being the mouse and the slowdowns when new areas are loading, the game feels good and plays nice, 60 fps with no caps on TPD and GPU frequency it consumes around 12W = 3h10m~ of gameplay on high so a great choice to play on.
