Looks like The Division 2 is not Steam Deck playable. Easy Anti Cheat gets stuck in a loading loop.

@gamingonlinux Anti Cheat isn't the answer, Community-run servers is the answer

Damn, the metal plate on the JSAUX clear back Steam Deck case sounds like quite a fire hazard if the reviewer could only take a few seconds touching it before "i feel like my skin is going to burn"

Not something I can check, as JSAUX have not reached out about it.

@gamingonlinux yeah I would buy one in a heartbeat if it didn't have that metal plate. I don't understand who thinks it's a good idea. Even if the stock thermals weren't enough (which they are), having an externally exposed heat sink is just bad product design.

@gamingonlinux assuming APU power is cut at 105 C it's just bad user experience. Doubtful it will cause any fires, just a dumb idea! Very doubtful that small of a surface area could even achieve any noticeable cooling.

@gamingonlinux oh look, just like the Pentium 4 daysโ€ฆ Intel is chasing after the GHz againโ€ฆ

I wonder how underwhelming this โ€œThermal Velocity Boostโ€ will be.

I meanโ€ฆ what kind of ridiculous name is that! Only thing with any kind of thermal velocity will be your CPU cooler screaming fast velocity towards overheating.

@gamingonlinux oh boy i can't wait to be hitting those 300+ watts on average during heavy workloads

@gamingonlinux this game looks really nice and very complete game but the really really tiny pixelish game design make really difficult for eyes to follow ... ๐Ÿ˜•

Steam be like: "game releasing in less than an hour"

*time passes*

Steam also be like:

@gamingonlinux have you tried restarting steam to apply its pending patches?

Maybe the game you want needs the next hours version of the steam client?

(I don't know if this is a serious or joking idea. I am just baffled at how often steam and steam games need updates on linux)

@gamingonlinux Are you sure? The last update to Coromon was November 3rd according to steam, and it was still broken in that update.

Boxman

@gamingonlinux wait it came out? Remember seeing it on twatter years ago donโ€™t think Iโ€™d be into those games anymore Iโ€™ll have to take a look at it

The Division 2 launches on Steam today, and we already know it uses Easy Anti-Cheat. Sadly not many developers have enabled it for Linux / Steam Deck but I'll take a look.

@gamingonlinux

I don't think Ubisoft even cares about how much good favour they could attain with a surprise Proton-compatible launch.

Unfortunate. Plenty more to play though, and plenty of devs to support.

DELETED

@gamingonlinux I wonder if the steam deck will slowly change that.

@gamingonlinux Valve probably remindS people to be careful?

Sami

@gamingonlinux if only I could buy it officially in Norway, but since I couldn't resellers get my money instead.

@gamingonlinux Ended up paying ยฃ400 second-hand for the 256GB model here. Haven't seen anything in the way of fake decks here, just scalper prices. (ยฃ650 for the 256GB model... Yeah nope.)

@gamingonlinux
We should choose like a yearly day where everybody donates like 100โ‚ฌ or something to the projects we use.
Like a "FOSS donation day". So to make it like a tradition. That would probably motivate people to donate if enough people are doing it. Then on the day we can share which projects we have donated to. It would be fun to see what people are using ๐Ÿ˜Š

@gamingonlinux did you give 3 praise gabens for your hard work?

Alanna

@gamingonlinux Does it solve the bizarre issues with some controllers? I have had weird trouble with both a Steam Controller and Switch Pro Controller. Very frustrating, we couldn't use our dock at all as a result.
