Runs without any issues. Crashed two times in over 50 hours of play, unclear if those crashes were related to Linux.
At highest settings, the game seems to run a bit slower than I'd expect. But even at second highest, 60FPS is reached.
Game doesn't run in fullscreen and necessitates log-out or restart. Runs completely fine once fullscreen is disabled.
Game doesn't run in fullscreen and can only be closed by logging out.
Hard to tell what issues are Linux specific. Generally, there are no issues that impact gameplay.
Performance drops whenever I get back into the driver seat. Problem can be fixed by switching between full screen and borderless window in the options. At full resolution, it won't make any functional difference but fixes the framerate.
Launches fine but runs at a completely unplayable framerate (approx. 10FPS or so?). Runs without issues on the same system under Windows so might be fixable with some tweaks?
Runs fine but will not launch reliably each time, requiring multiple attempts
Does not close properly, will just freeze and make the screen unresponsive. Best quit through a task manager.
Will technically launch but only once every two or three attempts and only after initiating .NET each time. Loading times are absolutely biblical, even from an SSD, although I don't know if that has anything to do with the OS.
Had to remove "StartupMovies = "Movies/loading.mp4" from cm3.ini
Mouse is slightly inaccurate but I have never played this game on Windows. I don't know if that's a game or a Linux issue.
Appears to crash occasionally but so far not frequently enough to be an issue. Works completely fine otherwise.
Textures appear to be slow to load sometimes but barely notable.
Crashed twice over the course of a bit over two hours. No cause or common denominator determined so far.
Works perfectly fine
FPS seems to hover around 25 or so, which is a bit low, considering my specs. Game was comfortably playable though.
Game seems to crash fairly frequently but I am not sure if that's due to the OS or the game itself. When it runs thought, it runs without any issues.
Mouse stopped working after alt-tabbing out (or activating the Steam overlay?). Seems to work well otherwise.
Mouse seems to malfunction after Alt-tabbing out of the game.
Crashed twice right after installation, no significant issues ever since. Vulkan experimental mode for large performance boost.
FPS seem to dip occasionally without apparent reason but never below 25.
Crashed once during 3DMark
3DMark would not run without Media Foundation DLL. Installing that fixed the issue.
Seems to be working fine, although it won't run videos. Might have something to do with an older Proton version or my older NVidia drivers.
Game doesn't seem to like it if you click out of the window, it causes the FPS to tank
Game runs relatively well aside from tile graphics loading slowly after every turn. However, be aware that the Community Patch does not work and can't be made to work because it relies on DLL.
IF you have an AMD card OR can deal with the texture flickering, the game doesn't have any issues.
Grass textures flicker frequently. Problem can be solved, but only for AMD cards (see "Performance Problems").
The texture errors can be solved by forcing the game to launch with Vulkan but if the system is running a NVidia card, the game becomes unplayably slow. Seems to work with AMD cards though.
Unable to launch campaign
I tried all of the tweeks and tricks described here but none of them work. I can launch the game but not neither the campaign nor any other gameplay.
Once Origin is installed and can be persuaded to behave, it seems to work just fine.
After screens were reactivated after some time afk, there were severe graphical glitches that persisted even after the game was closed. Reboot was required.
Getting Origin to install and run properly was a huge hassle and required several attempts. But once the game ran, it ran without any apparent issues for several hours. Just don't let your screen go into power saving mode while the game is open...
Game launches but can't play
Game appears to be working fine but freezes when I attempt to start the campaign. Might try and fail to load a cut scene?
