BF4 is a classic, runs well and multiplayer works fine, but you may struggle to find a full server depending on the time.
You can play a game in its entirety, but once the match ends and you are auto connecting to the new lobby, you will get kicked by Punkbuster AC. You can reconnect with no problem.

The game runs incredibly bad, with my specs I should be getting far more FPS than I am. It has gotten better over time but sits at a measly 160 or so.
This is the only game where I get such terrible packet loss. Every 1-2 minutes, I get 50% packet loss up and down, lasting around 5 seconds.
My frametimes can randomly skyrocket to around 500ms, and freeze my game for a second or two.
The game runs absolutely fine, outside of the freezing that occurs (mainly when opening doors, but occasional) and doesn't run unexpectedly.
One weird moment where my mouse acted like it was moving in perfectly straight lines, pausing did not fix the issue, but as I was backtracking to a save station, it went back to normal.
Sometimes, the game freezes for around 3 seconds when opening doors, but recovers fine.
Stable 120fps on Ultra w/o RT.
Had to change the renderer from DirectX 12 back to DirectX 11. I changed it inside the game settings, and attempted to relaunch but the game would not open.
Hakon's pathfinding in the beginning seemed to be buggy/broken, I had to push him to get him to move, or stand around behind him for him to start running again.
Overall, the game runs just as well as it did/would on Windows. Ray tracing won't work, as DX12 breaks your game. Overall a great playthrough.
If you switched your renderer to DX12, and your game doesn't open, go to your steam compatdata and find your game folder, in which you'll find the "video.src" config file, and change the renderer back to DX11.
The game is fantastic, runs fine and works well with no hiccups or anything, just that one problem with finding the key.
Feels like a frametime issue, I didn't install MangoHUD to check, but it's feels exactly like it.
Ubisoft Connect works fine, but requests a key. Normally, you have to right click on the game, go to manage and then view CD key. This is not possible on Linux, and you need to find your key on a Windows machine. Oops. Not a Proton issue, just a Steam issue.
