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?

    I’m running it on Bazzite, and it mostly runs great.

    I’ve been dealing with a bug that has apparently been around since the beta, but it’s not Linux-specific. Sometimes, the game crashes due to a corrupted file. Verifying the install from Steam fixes the issue, but it seems to pop up randomly. I’ve had days without issues, and days where it happens 2-3 raids in a row.

    I have 82 hours and crashed once during a match early on. Otherwise flawless performance and experience.

    Oh there is a small stutter when quest cutscenes begin to play for the first time but that’s not bad.

    Running perfectly on Bazzite with a 4090.

    The only issue I encountered is that the game really doesn’t like being installed to a second drive. The anti cheat throws a hissy fit about paths.

    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.

      Iv only been hearing people having issues if they are on mint, pop or other out of date distros. Fedora and arch based distros seem to never have issues with arc.

    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.

    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!

    EndeavourOS. Zero configuration, zero issues, solid 120 FPS on my rig and about to hit 50 hours. My default is Proton Experimental.
