Quoting: omicron-bDo you wish to try Flatpak version of Steam?
Yes I think I can give it a try. Even just for having a full report with all the possible scenarios.
I will keep you posted here with the outcome.

Hello, I am on Debian Testing (Bullseye) and I have the exact same problem. It's now weeks that I have this issue and so far no solution, and it's look like it is really Debian specific.

I am trying to investigate myself the problem but so far no idea what is going on? One thing is sure, the game was working before, I played with it for some weeks and then one day I got this issue.

I managed however to get an idea when this problem appeared. My last saved games in Jedi Fallen Order is dated June the 6th, and I realized the game was not working anymore almost only a week after, the 14th. Here https://paste.debian.net/hidden/4a2567fd/ I saved a list of packages that got updated in Debian Testing during those days, I removed possibly non related stuffs from the list like games and office applications. Given that the problem might be network/certification related my current suspects are the ca-certificates and the gnutls packages. Doing a version cross check of these packages on other distros might help?

I understand. Few other people confirmed that this issue is quite recent.

Yes I have already checked gnutls and I haven't spot any apparent change, but I'll take a better look at it for sure.

Thank you for the hint. I'll keep you all posted if I find anything.

And it works successfully with Flatpak indeed. Could this be a lead for making some comparisons?

(Sorry for the second account, got issues with the previous one)

As posted also here https://www.reddit.com/r/SteamPlay/comments/hmjrm6/unable_to_connect_to_ea_servers_for_origin_games/ the list of packages that got updated between 6-14 June on my Debian Testing are here https://paste.debian.net/hidden/f20373e7/

I thought ca-certificates and gnutls packages might be the problem, those also got updated on Debian Stable during the same periods. I downgraded these packages:
  • libneon27-gnutls:amd64, 0.31.1-1 --> 0.30.2-4

  • gnutls-bin:amd64, 3.6.14-1 --> 3.6.13-4

  • libgnutls30:amd64, 3.6.14-1--> 3.6.13-4

  • libgnutls30:i386, 3.6.14-1 --> 3.6.13-4

  • libgnutls-dane0:amd64, 3.6.14-1 --> 3.6.13-4)

  • ca-certificates, 20200601 --> 20190110


restarted my pc and tried again but the problem is still there. So it must be something else!

Quoting: The_Aquabathi is Origin broken with Wine now?? with Proton it works but not with Wine. It gives an installation error, I can't install it.
Few installation errors are common and have a workaround. Have you already checked the Wine AppDB Page for Origin?

Quoting: The_Aquabatso I still couldn't figured out the origin not downloading error. But here is my take on this, with Mesa 20.2git performance is getting there, I think that I should wait some months, for final optimizations since mine is a weak card for this game, on more powerful hardware like a navi 5700xt/5600xt, nvidia 1080, the game should play excelent when mesa 20.2 is releasead.

What is your current Hw?

Quoting: LordDaveTheKindWhat is your current Hw?

it is on my profile/avatar, the game is playable, but there is some stuttering with sometimes frames going below 20fps, but I guess on average the frame are like 50ish, because there's lots of part on the game where I get 60fps. (this is on medium settings) the problem is when it dips below 20 fps because it's really noticeable

I see. Did you try to disable shadows?

QuoteI see. Did you try to disable shadows?

yes. Setting taskset -c 0-5 helped also and some tweaks on dxvk.conf also helped, now I'm going to test dxvk master there's some fixes for this game.

Funny thing is that it takes longer to configure it properly than actually playing it. I've already finished the main story.

Quoting: The_Aquabatok I found a tweak from windows forums add this to the game properties on origin, at advanced launch options

Quote-norc -nowrite -nodatabase -useallavailablecores -high -fullscreen

also the game works better if you set the graphics to fullscreen, not window fullscreen, and uncap the frames to 144, or 120.

also I use taskset to use the physical cores on wineserver and starwarsjedifallen executable also renice -2. I have the game on Origin, I suppose on steam is easier, because you can gamemoderun it, but if you launch it from origin you can't.
Wish I knew how to script this . something like

starwars='pidof starwars';
 do renice -2 $starwars; 
do taskset -cp 0-5 $starwars &&
 if wineserver='pidof wineserver', 
do renice -2 $wineserver, 
do taskset -cp 0-5 $wineserver
🤔🤔 not good at scripting

I used taskset as well, and it did improve the overall game performance.
