Installed out of box with Proton Experimental and I played about 20 minutes without absolutely no issue (did try only Outpost mode).
For a new and rather aspiring title, I was absolutely stunned finding out it runs practically out of box.
Rather rare graphical glitches, but nothing to be concerned about over 400+ hours of play on Linux exclusively.
Eventhough EAC is deployed on client side, I am still able to play since its deployment few months ago.
Kicked by Battleye
After installing Proton Battleye Runtime and using Proton Experimental (in Steam Beta), I am still getting kicked with error 'Unsupported Platform' after creating the avatar and trying to join server. I refunded.
Could not connect to server: Easy Anti-Cheat initialization failed!
Games look stunning and until you try to join servers I have not seen absolutely no artifact or stutter.
After November patch "Into the 'Void", game still doesn't let you join server with 'EAC Initialization failed' error.
New patch, still stalemate...
FPS dips likely when compiling shaders. Happens less and less frequently, usually when new animation/texture shows for the first time. Also slightly lower FPS than I'd expect with my HW, but overall very playable.
Crashed once (when trying to pull ty my inventory half of my bank).
I believe some work is to be done on Proton side to elevate slight performance issue, but so far I enjoyed OPR & Invasion (with quite some dips, but playable) and Mine/Myrk run (without any issues). All other gameplay is pretty much OK.
Steam authentification still not working after starting the game.
Game runs but complains about dotnet version - can be fixed
Installed game, downgraded proton to 5.x, used 'protontricks --gui' to install dotnet48 component (2nd screen, for some reason CLI installation didn't work), upgraded proton back to Experimental (game silent crashes on 6.14-GE2 for me). I had to lower all graphics settings to lowest (game hangs whole PC without this on AMD card systems). Since then I've played about 2 hours without crash.
Biggest issue is inability to alt-tab, game doesn't let you.
Broken on launch
