I remember when Proton launched it was like magic playing games like Doom and Nier Automata straight from the Linux Steam client with excellent performance. I do not miss the days of having the Windows version of Steam installed separately.

Unfortunately Easy Anti Cheat doesn't agree with your allegations.

[-] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago

At least they offer a Linux version

[-] binboupan@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

I have no issues playing games with Easy Anti Cheat or Battleye.

[-] Zapp@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

Can you demonstrate this claim? Which games and what setting adjustments did you make?

[-] bosnia@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Halo MCC, BattleBit, and Apex Legends all work from my library without any tweaks.

[-] binboupan@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

No tweaks, just install the runtimes for the anticheats first in Steam

[-] CeeBee@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Ark, and no adjustments made.

Rust doesn't run properly on Linux because of EAC

[-] csolisr@communities.azkware.net 3 points 1 year ago

Correction: Rust doesn't run properly on Linux because the developers fear an uptick on cheaters caused by EAC being less invasive on Linux than on Windows.

[-] BlackVenom@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I didn't know they did anything about cheaters.

[-] offspec@lemmy.nicknakin.com 3 points 1 year ago

But that's a choice made by Garry Newman, not a limitation of the platform

[-] lnee@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

what do you mean rust has run on linux for like ever and how does EAC have anything to do with a programming language

[-] CeeBee@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Rust doesn't run properly on Linux because of EAC

Nope. Rust on servers with EAC enabled doesn't work, because Face Punch refuses to support Linux.

I currently play on a server (without EAC) with a group of friends. They all use Windows and I run Linux. It plays as smooth as butter.

[-] chemicalwonka@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 year ago

Yes, you are correct, but EAC continues to be a problem on Linux.

[-] CeeBee@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

It's not EAC that's the problem.
