USB mouse input occasionally hitches, or feels like playing at a lower sensitivity/DPI
Use the launch options listed in other ProtonDB reports and on the PCGamingWiki to get into non-Punkbuster, v1.5 multiplayer games.
On Deck, use the following launch options:
+set r_customwidth 1280 +set r_customheight 800 +set r_customaspect 1.6
Adjust FOV and maximum FPS accordingly.
In the Settings, turn off 'Sync Every Frame', and set 'World Dynamic Light Quality' to Fastest.

Used Low settings and Adaptive Resolution when playing on a docked Deck
Install Far Cry 2 Multi Fixer to the bin/ directory, add FarCry2MFLauncher.exe as a non-Steam game.
After configuring, add the -play launch option.
Performance on DirectX9 is abysmal. Use DirectX10 instead, and accept the bugs (such as phone calls not working).
As noted in other reports, quick saving and/or enabling VSync during the first hotel scene will enable the following scene to function as intended. Neither workaround is needed when using the Far Cry 2 Multi Fixer.

Install missing fonts:
flatpak run com.github.Matoking.protontricks 1284210 corefonts tahoma
Switch to GloriousEggroll; increase RAM and/or swap size.
The Steam Deck suffers from crashes that I haven't seen even on PCs with less, equal, or greater RAM.
Use GloriousEggroll, then using CryoUtilities:
- Increase the swap size to 16GB
- Increase the VRAM size to 4GB
This will virtually eliminate OOM crashes.
Attempting to run the game under WINE presents mouse input and resolution issues.
Playing with a Steam Linux Runtime (i.e. native) works fine on Steam Deck's Desktop Mode (KDE X11), but not on Gaming Mode (GameScope Wayland).
As the game uses an embedded version of Chromium, it may be possible to set some flags which will allow Chromium to function under a Wayland environment.
