ProtonDB doesn’t have any report yet but YouTube is full of videos of content creators that got early access to the game. I was curious to know if anyone tried it with Proton and how it works…
EDIT I just installed it and it seems to work out-of-the-box for me on Ubuntu 23.10 with a AMD 7900 XTX and AMD 5800X. I’m getting around 55 fps at 3440x1440 with almost everything high beside having disabled V-Sync, DoF and Motion blur. AA set to TAA 2x.
Not really.
Even with the miniscule amount of overhead Proton adds, if it performs like pure shit on Windows, it will very likely perform like pure shit on Linux too. This isn’t the platform or Proton’s fault, the devs just made a badly optimised game.
The cases where Proton outperforms Windows are edge cases and have more to do with the lightweight-ness of the Linux distro compared to Windows than any magic Proton is doing. Such a jump will make CSII perform a little less shit, not go from dogshit to acceptable
