Yea Linux has been hit and miss for this game. When it works it's fine but I occasionally have issue, which I'm having now, where character models don't load the char select and entering game just loads into a skybox with default UI. Have to hard stop the game at that point.
Sometimes repairing from launcher a few time fixed it. Sometimes wiping character .ini files fixed it. I've had using a different install directory fix it too. I dunno, it's a weird one
Maybe I'll provide some feedback. This Linux launcher is seriously ass lol
I feel as a software engineer I could probably get some good ideas over to them because this is a horse shit design (it's just a wrapper for windows exes)
