Helldivers has been on my radar for a while now and I was wondering what should I expect

Since I dropped planetside I’ve been looking for a “main game” to fill the void

All I really know is shoot bug and if you aren’t getting friendly fired to hell and back you’re playing wrong

    It’s a great game that respects player time and money, and since we’re on Lemmy (land of the FOSS folks) I’m also gonna throw it out there:

    It works on Linux under Proton. 🎉

        Haven’t had a problem with it with both amd proc and GPU.

        In fact, didn’t have to do anything to get it working in Mint Linux, just installed from steam and it worked.

        I can’t speak to all systems or configurations, but my desktop is Arch-based with the Nvidia 535 driver (a few versions old, I’m still waiting for the explicit sync driver support), I run the game through Xwayland (no gamescope), and I’ve been using protonge 9-2 as the compat tool. The game runs really smooth in my experience, and on protonge 9-2 I don’t have issues switching windows/workspaces.

        I do run the game in exclusive fullscreen— I recall the window having a single white pixel border in borderless fullscreen.
