Please run the command posted before connecting to an online game its required to have a plesent experience with this game.
curl -LO --output-dir ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/shadercache/1172470/DXVK_state_cache/ https://github.com/bcook254/apex-legends-cache/raw/main/r5apex.dxvk-cache Its almost mandatory to run this command first; itll download some cache files and makes the game actually playable.

For some reason i have issues with sharing an audio source with apex and discord canary
Had some minor issues when it comes to ping and fps dips; not sure if its something on my end or proton but is otherwise not noticeble.

Some bugs but only graphical issues i believe can be attributed to proton. Overall proton makes the game run near-perfect.
In all of the (Pre renderd) cinematic it returns a visual missing texture. Like those old channel stations on the tv. In engine cinematic work perfectly fine. Other then that i have not noticed any degradation.
Game is playable and fun but suffers from some very annoying bugs; including but not limited to. Falling out of the map, repeating an action until you reset the level. And not showing button prompts to do certain actions.
Proton makes the game run near perfect; with other bugs getting in the way. No real issues with proton other then missing textures.
Pre-renderd cinematics have an tv-like no signal/colour bars error. Other then that the occasional missing texture (see trough)
Tried the xbox one elite 2/ elite, and 360 controllers respectively.
A very short game with little issues; it didn't detect my controller but its playable with a keyboard and mouse.
My controllers would only work in the menu and not ingame
Overall runs pretty smooth no issues in regards to Linux compatibility but a bit buggy of a game.
At the shop you can see trough the wall and see your crypto mining station
1 crash so far but overall good.
Mild duplication bugs when reloading directly after saving
Runs perfect out of the box. I've ran the game for about an hour and a half now give or take and have not had a single issue; or frame dip
Should run perfectly fine on any system without issues
I had some major issues at first but trust me stick with it and itll clear up. After about your first hour you should have 0 issues at all.
Got some heavy crackling at certain points; not entirely sure what happend it only lasts about a minute tops.
Minor lighting issues; models having a glow effect and such. Most people probably wont notice it though.
Near the begining of the game i has SEVERE fps stutters issues to the point i thought it was unplayable. But i stuck with it and after about an hour it cleared up almost perfectly; whenever loading new regions i get some slowdown but nothing as severe as it happend at first.
The game ran fine for the first 2 hours; I tried connecting online. Instantly crashed and it would not even launch the game anymore.
Sounded like it was playing in a low bit-rate stream
My frames kept dipping to below 5 fps every 15-30 seconds. Other than that i was averaging 30 on low witch is way below my expected performance.
Runs perfectly out of the box and i've not had a single issue with it in the past 20 hours of playtime
Minor freezes every like 5 hours
No issues at all
Overall good game apart from mild stuttering i would have thought it was native. Runs almost perfectly!
When zooming all the way out it'd feel like i lost frames/stutter but the fps count on steam was a stable 144 (my monitors refresh rate)
Runs almost perfectly out of the box with little to 0 issues at all. Any linux gamer will be happy to know theres a 90% chance of it working
Very minor screen flickering to a greenish tint.
Runs as good as native
This game runs like a dream on my system i havent had a single issue and have beaten about half of the game so far with ease. Any linux or steam deck gamer should have an easy time with this one
Little buggy; though im not sure if thats to do with proton; the game etc. Overall a really fun experience i highly recommend it
If you look directly up there is a black void (missing skybox) witch causes some minor graphical issues, but most of the time you dont see it.
Every-time i received a notification (ie discord) my frames would drop to 0 for about 3 seconds. So mute your notifications when you play.
So far only 1 crash in my 10h play trough
I am able to see trough select parts of the map.
Ocassonal fps drops when going trough portals or intense scenes on high (should be able to run on epic)
Upon clicking start/continue or anything to launch the actual game it hands you a unity error report and closes itself.
Everything in the main menu works (settings options ect)
Game fails to boot
After about 30 mins of attempting to run it i either get a black screen and it crashes; or "couldnt switch to requested monitor resolution" its broken.
A game that doesn't work on Linux at all i tried a lot of proton versions. Attempted to run it in a vm. managed to get flagged for cheating.
i could not get past 15 fps. even with the lowest settings.
about 7 crashes in my limited time with it
I highly recommend lowering your display settings to 100-60 fps as the game will not work above that. You might also want to lower to 1080p
Legit after trying for almost 2 weeks to get it to work from custom protons and tricks etc all i had to do was go into my display settings and lower the refresh rate to 60 instead of 144... god damnit.
Without the aforementioned fix itll run at like 10fps max
