I’m just curious I’d anyone here has successfully run arc raiders on Linux. If so what OS are you using and what was the setup if there was any?

    Can’t speak for myself as I haven’t played it, but a good place I like to check is Protondb. Their page for Arc Raiders says it should be fully compatible :)

    Obviously the folks posting at protondb can’t speak for anyone so hopefully some folks here have some helpful anecdotes!

    I’ve been playing it the past few weeks with no issue, I’m on Garuda Linux with Hyprland. I have a 7900 XTX. The have runs at a consistent 100fps for about 2 hours then I start to get frame hitches where I drop down to 40. Just restarting the game fixes that issue for me.

    I ran into a tiny problem while playing it in Linux Mint. The game would freeze after a certain ammount of time, but increasing the max_map_count to that oft the steamdeck fixed it. (Mint has a really low default one)

    Now its running without problems.

    I’m on CachyOS atm, and the setup just required hitting the install button. I’m gonna be honest, this game runs incredibly good, even on my laptop. I’m getting well over 100fps stable, and I’ve got it on High settings with DLSS on Quality, but framgen off. I’m gonna test it for a few more matches, then see if I can crank it to Ultra and turn DLSS off.

    it was also just Steam Deck verified.

    Been playing it since beta test on Bazzite. No tinkering just click install and play.

    I have been having crashes consistently on Linux that I don’t get on windows, personally. But seems more like a me issue as most people say it runs great.

        Yes I have been using Proton - I have tried Hotfix, Experimental and the default one. Haven’t heard of Ge-Before is that something separate?

          Ah.

          GloriousEggroll keeps a version of proton that uses all of steam updates plus additional updates made by the community (to fix odd issues) and protonfixes (a database of scripts to make the weird game-specific configurations you need to make sometimes). I use it exclusively because I’ve had issues with regular Proton. I think the default Proton versions are still version 9(or there’s an experimental Wine 10 version). GE-Proton10 is using Wine 10, so it has support for native Wayland and HDR.

          Your distro probably has protonup-qt in its repo. It’s a GUI to download and install various community proton versions. Just run it, click install new version and grab the latest GE-Proton10-(28?) and restart Steam and it’ll show up in the list of Proton versions that you can pick.

    It works fine.

    Arch

    The setup was install it and press play.

    I did add the ENVs for HDR.

    If anyone knows an easier way to manage all of my steam game’s wine versions and command line arguments, lmk

    I ran on Bazzite during the server slam right before release with few issues that I ended up sorting out. Their discord is very helpful and had a dedicated Linux support channel (I imagine there is a similar dedicated channel now that the game has fully released). Embark Studios has also stated that while they don’t officially support Linux, they do support it on a best-effort basis and partner with a testing company that tests the game on Linux via Proton, so I wouldn’t expect it to suddenly stop working any time soon.

    Runs amazing on Kubuntu for me. The only issue I had was the mouse leaving the game to my other monitor. A steam launcher command fixed it pretty easily though!
