Quoting: EhvisNot entirely sure why people are so happy with Proton on this one. After the rename fix, it ran reasonably well but with some initial stutter. However, zooming weapons gives fairly major graphical glitches. Example:



Tried it with D9VK. Initial stutter seemed a bit less, but a different set of graphical glitches:

Patterns in darker areas/shadows:


These are really annoying as they give sort of a moiré effect when moving.

Then there is the character introduction cut scenes:



Which is broken beyond use.

Can't comment on performance as both options give > 100 fps for me.

I'm getting this when changing resolution; works well in 1920x1080 or in windowed mode for me.
You may try in windowed fullscreen.

Another way is to put d3d9.dll from D9VK next to the game executable, and then modify his launch options as follows:
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="d3d9=n" DXVK_HUD=fps %command%
(DXVK_HUD=fps is also to make sure it is using d9vk)
Each way has his pros and cons
See also here, because it doesn't start with proton without a little modification:

Got it today (july, 10) and playing via proton right now and d9vk, performance are ok.
GTX 750ti 2GB, 1600x1200 all maxed out, no AA, lowest fps i've seen is 45, but most of the time it is over 60fps.

What will happen in the days to come?

Well, since i don't like even the eventuality that a game can do anything nasty on my back, i just stop it doing any network traffic and i'm done.

Quoting: ThormackHi, should I put this "unshare -n" on Steam launch parameters? Or in the OS command line?

Not 100% sure what is the OS command line, but i put it in the steam launch options because i own that game on steam, so it is:
unshare -n %command%
If you start it by commandline, just replace %command% with the right executable.

For unshare to work for unprivileged users, however, you need it to have particular admin rights.
A superuser must give it this way (i run it at boot time)
# setcap cap_sys_admin+ep /usr/bin/unshare

Just got the base game, is on discount. 75% off on Steam.
I've read something about how it became a spyware as stated in the new EULA, and i don't understood well if they changed it.
Anyway, i'm running it through "unshare -n" to be sure it doesn't do any network traffic.

Quoting: g000hPersonally I have a massive backlog of RTS games (including previous Feral titles) which I haven't even touched yet, and it isn't a genre that really grabs me. I'm holding off making a purchase for now.

Same for me (different genre).

...that makes me think: too much games for not so many (Linux) users?
Is the Linux game market inflated?

That's weird results, as far as i heard, sotTR performed "incredibly well" under Proton.

Quoting: devnullWould be interesting if someone from Valve could comment on what it means but regarding the survey you can check when your last report was with

grep -i survey ~/.steam/steam/config/config.vdf

I get

"SurveyDateVersion" "-8455477975071795344"
"SurveyDate" "2018-06-10"
"SurveyDateType" "2"


Which looks quite odd not only because of the version but I don't get popups about it. Maybe 2 means opted out?

Nope...
                                "SurveyDate"            "2019-04-08"
                                "SurveyDateVersion"             "6397896252699296968"
                                "SurveyDateType"                "2"
                                "SurveyID"              ***HIDDEN***

I really like to enjoy them with my doughter (Ron Gilbert put his hand on them, right?), but it is not translated in italian, damn.
