Tinker Steps:Custom Proton: GE-Proton9-23, Set launch options
unset LD_PRELOAD; SteamDeck=1 gamemoderun %command%
Instability:Occasionally
Occassionally, the game will crash and take the entire desktop environment with it.
Performance has been random between patches (solid 150fps+ some patches, ~60fps with heavy stutters some patches). When it works, it runs better than Windows (aside from the crashes).

Tinker Steps:Custom Proton: GE-Proton9-23, Set launch options
unset LD_PRELOAD; gamescope -W 3440 -H 1440 -r 144 -e --fullscreen --borderless --force-grab-cursor -- gamemoderun %command%
Instability:Frequently
Realistic (Ground, Air, and Naval)
- Crashes during the match ~90% of the time
- Freezes for ~10 seconds at the start of every battle (https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/Gzuh9IYe7yLp)
Other
- Crashes on the scoreboard/rewards screen of every mode (after the match) ~90% of the time
- Crashes on boot ~10% of the time (Gamescope seems to fix this)
Enjoyable (if annoying) if you only play Arcade. Unplayable if you want to play Realistic.

Feb 2025 Update - Broken
Tinker Steps:Set launch options
unset LD_PRELOAD; gamescope -W 3440 -H 1440 -r 144 -e --fullscreen --borderless --force-grab-cursor -- gamemoderun %command%
Installs:Yes
Opens:Yes
Starts Play:No
The Feb 27th update broke both Native Linux and Proton game modes.
- Crashes when loading into a match on Proton, crashes ~5 minutes into a match on Native.
- In the previous update, the game was crash-happy, but not (usually) during matches. It was playable, if annoying.
I believe the current crashes will be fixed in future updates, but this level of update-to-update instability seems to be the norm for this game on Linux.
