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?

It just got Steam Deck verified.
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 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.
Works fine for me on gnome/ubuntu/nvidia, altho it crashes if I tab out while a map is loading
Arc raiders is steam deck verifiied, so it should run great on Linux.
The game is listed as ‘Platinum’ on ProtonDB: https://www.protondb.com/app/1808500
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 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.
EndeavourOS. Zero configuration, zero issues, solid 120 FPS on my rig and about to hit 50 hours. My default is Proton Experimental.
Same here but 80fps. It’s been a great time.
Some people report crashes but it works for me on GE Proton 10-24. On Arch btw.
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.
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, ProtonGE.
Zero issues since server slam.
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 arch and it works great
