Quoting: MayeulC

Quoting: pleasereadthemanualI've never managed to get multiplayer to work on the desktop, despite many attempts.

I had to completely uninstall it last week to finally make it work. Also, I think I had an old Proton version selected, prior to that.

I installed it from scratch, tried various Proton versions including GE, but EAC just doesn't work for me, I guess. I have similar issues with other EAC games like Back 4 Blood. The last time I tried was right after GOL announced MCC's EAC was finally working on GNU/Linux, but...

A short in the dark but, do you by any chance played Star Citizen at some point ? To make it work you have to add a line to your /etc/hosts to block an EAC server, doing so break any other games using EAC as it can't update, you might want to check that.

I hope that developers will keep moving to Godot or other open source engines. F*CK Unity, I lost trust in them years ago and they just showed again that they can't be trusted

They are a bit early for an Autumn sale, but I'm not gonna say no to some juicy deals :grin:

Will we see an apology from EA for their terrible work responding to the support tickets? Probably not.

They really showed how bad their support is, just a bot replying that they "Looked into it".

if $PLAYER_IS_BANNED
then
    echo "After thoroughly investigating your account and concern, we again found that we actioned your account correctly after..."
fi

Really show that they don't care about their players/customers. They are still one of the few launcher I see needing a fix every few proton updates.

The Steamdeck Verified program really need some improvement, as right now it seems performance are not really taken into account (despite having a checkmark for it).

So far my experience with BG3 is mixed. The controller experience is quite good, but the performance and battery life was not really good. I decided to lock the game at 20fps. It's not the best, but the game do not suffer from it gameplay wise, and at least I can get around 3 hours of playtime now.

I hope FSR 2.2 will help improve battery life and the general visual fidelity of the game, as on desktop it's stunning.

I haven't encountered bugs, but I don't have a lot of playtime so it might be why.

Quoting: TheRiddickGOLD is not for workarounds people!

But it is, from protondb, Gold means : "Runs perfectly after tweaks"

Quoting: WoodlandorI have fond memories of playing Baulders Gate when it first came out.
When I got it home and opened the box and saw it was 5 CDs :shock:
That was complete craziness at the time lol

Now you open the box and get a piece of paper with a Steam code :whistle:

Never looked into Baldur's Gate but the game look nice. I will wait to see how the games actually run on the SD (Because no overlay on the screenshot, and it's still a post from someone who want you to get the game :whistle: )

Tried it on the Steamdeck during lunch break :

Going to the lowest settings with FSR 2.1 at quality, I get around 40FPS and it doesn't look that bad. I'm so far happy with it, even if there is a few bugs, mainly on HUD elements stuck on the screen (For example, a few tips where stuck on screen and I had to go back to the main menu and back in game to fix it)

Will you be picking it up too?

Already pre-ordered it on Fanatical (I know, pre-order bad). I'm very hyped by this game. Never got to play the other one when they were still "recent", but gave a try to AC3 and I loved it (Even if the default controls are... specials :whistle:).

I have been craving for a good mech game, and I hope AC6 can scratch this itch! If they are trying to have an experience on the SD as smooth as Elden Ring, I really think it's gonna be great!

I was waiting for a long time for a R&C game to release on PC, and my dream finally come true! I hope it plays well on the Steamdeck, it would be a banger for the lunch breaks :grin:

But I will mostly be playing on my desktop anyway, even bought a DS5 just for it, I'm surprised how plug and play it was on my PC, even the tactile pad was working as a mouse out of the box!
