Since multiple comments and messages kept asking me if I was going to test it, I did. I tried #TheDivision2 on #SteamDeck and it continues the sad case of #EasyAntiCheat breaking support for Steam Deck and #Linux desktop gaming.

PROTON EAC RUNTIME="/home/deck/.steam/steam/ steamapps/common/Proton EasyAnticheat Runtime/" %.command% This used to work in fall guys time ago to skip EAC window, maybe in Div 2...

I used geproton7-12 it was i think, worked for me on fallguys

@gamingonlinux :( installing EAC from steam os maybe works idk

[ 2023-01-12 19:35:31Z ] 👍 2

EAC from EOS doesn't use the runtime, that's for older EAC.

They are doing everything wrong on Steam since they are back !

[ 2023-01-18 22:41:46Z ] 👍 0

They’re actually doing a great job, which you’d know if you had a deck.

@diazepamkit 🥳

Welp, they are not back. Its entire new team, amateur graduated college people that working in the division 2.

[ 2023-01-12 19:46:10Z ]👍 0

It still plagued with crashing issues and bugs, skip it

[ 2023-01-12 21:46:53Z ] 👍 0

Seriously, me and my friends played this last year. We had a good time, but we had a saying "There is always at least 1" In reference to the fact that 99% of our play sessions with the game, at least 1 of us would have the game crash. Usually have 2 people though. Not to mention other tech issues we had, I didn't crash much but had an issue where the game would randomly run at like 5 fps upon starting up, and I would need to reboot it over and over again until it just decided oh im gonna work now.

[ 2023-01-12 19:50:54Z ]👍 2

I tried Div1 and couldn't even get uconnect to connect to the servers so refunded that instantly.

[ 2023-01-12 21:49:03Z ] 👍 2

@xxThat90sGuyxx They aren't. You can find steam screenshots from this week that have clear MP activity.

[ 2023-01-12 20:37:40Z ] 👍 0

I think the Div1 servers were shut down a while back.

Damnit! I'm installing it right now :(

[ 2023-01-12 20:59:10Z ]👍 2

Div 1 works well on my deck, Div 2 will do for sure.

I want to play division 2 on my steam deck😥😥😢😢😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Works fine on a Windeck

Anti cheats is the achilles heel of the Steam Deck

[ 2023-01-15 00:49:59Z ] 👍 0

@lol1431-r1s To be honest, Michael is partly right. After all, most of those games aren't written with Linux in mind nor as a primary focus. Even SteamOS basically uses a translation layer to make games built for Windows to work. It's not that devs are 'too lazy', it's just that it is not a priority for them, and I honestly don't blame them.

[ 2023-01-14 17:31:03Z ] 👍 2

@michaelp.3485 how? all these anticheats have options to work on linux that devs refuse to enable or are too lazy

[ 2023-01-14 13:23:32Z ] 👍 0

@MK-vi2cm I blame Linux. It is shit for gaming.

[ 2023-01-13 03:34:10Z ] 👍 4

honestly yeah this is facts. i blame the devs of the games though

[ 2023-01-12 22:08:22Z ]👍 3

What an L from Ubisoft, no steam features whatsoever either, they literally want you to use steam as a shortcut to their launcher. 🤦‍♂

[ 2023-01-13 15:41:08Z ] 👍 1

Yeahh, besides steam - no one needs these other crap launchers. UPlay, Origin, Epic (fail), Battlenet, etc. can tank all I care for

[ 2023-01-12 22:08:55Z ]👍 1

I was looking to play this game on my HP Omen 15 (2021) runing on Linux Mint. Thanks for the review!

[ 2023-01-12 22:17:28Z ]👍 0

Div 2 runs great on Windows 10 at least when I tried that on the steam deck, good performance.

[ 2023-01-12 22:28:18Z ]👍 1

Personally, I am not too bothered about it, after al I don't play these types of games on my deck, but outside my deck it does limit the games I play on Linux a bit.

[ 2023-01-12 23:18:20Z ]👍 0

I know who won't be getting my money then.

[ 2023-01-12 23:33:52Z ]👍 0

Does EAC hook in to only PvP mode or does it bother the base game as well? I was just thinking, they could try doing something like Master Chief Collection did where they have a secondary launch option to play disabled. I wouldn't want to play any PvP from Steam Deck anyway.

[ 2023-01-13 18:34:51Z ] 👍 0

@jorismak You can disable that

[ 2023-01-13 07:28:48Z ] 👍 0

Division One didn't really have a non multiplayer mode . In safe houses and such there were other players , And even if you started alone , certain missions tarted matchmaking to get another player.

[ 2023-01-12 23:39:53Z ]👍 1

So annoyed since I just bought the game on steam, and it doesn't even work....

[ 2023-01-13 01:51:34Z ] 👍 0

You can just refund it if you've played less than two hours

[ 2023-01-13 00:00:10Z ]👍 0

This is kinda depressing sense all they have to do is flip on a switch it’s just sad

Crazy machines 3 doesn't work for me either with proton next, even though it was listed as playable. Also some none steam games that used to run fine don't even start up anymore. I feel like the best is yet to come software wise, but I am already thinking if I even need my desktop PC anymore.

[ 2023-01-13 01:29:21Z ]👍 0

Ubisoft garbage program Ubisoft connect and the EAC are trash. I wish we could run the games fine but alas. Maybe one day. I'd want to run R6 siege and Dead By Daylight.

[ 2023-01-13 03:06:09Z ]👍 5

Good piece of information, thank you. Always vote with your wallet. Don't buy games that actively get in the way.

[ 2023-01-18 19:17:10Z ] 👍 0

Get in the way of what? This game was never meant to be able to play on steamos.

[ 2023-01-13 03:16:41Z ]👍 0

Dude check out dead by daylight it worked for me looks like was updated to work on linux latest proton works great

[ 2023-01-13 07:29:55Z ]👍 0

No Linux x64 anti cheat file in the game folder , to symlink ? Like fall guys and a few others ?

[ 2023-01-13 10:08:36Z ]👍 3

I was looking forward to playing this game on my deck and got caught up in the loop too. If anything change with this game and our decks, I would love an update from you, PS Thank you for a great vid. Peace

It works on windows just dual-boot

Is it not loading because its trying to load the ubisoft app? Ive known that to be an issue too, for instance trying to play test drive unlimited 2 gets stuck like that because its trying to load its launcher but cant

[ 2023-01-13 20:37:35Z ] 👍 1

No, as mentioned it's Easy Anti Cheat

[ 2023-01-13 21:28:48Z ]👍 0

Wasn't division 2 on stadia? If it were why don't they just support Linux already? And bring the crew 2 to Linux as well

[ 2023-01-14 07:55:14Z ]👍 0

A friend uses geforce now to play the division 2 on steamdeck. I thought he said that it still needs the ubisoft connect to start the game even if it's on steam..

[ 2023-01-14 09:32:18Z ]👍 1

I can't even start up Ubisoft connect. The game won't work

[ 2023-01-14 13:22:43Z ]👍 0

Another game broken on Steam Deck? What a shocker. I am so sick of the Deck at this point.

[ 2023-01-14 13:26:48Z ]👍 0

What about 6800u?

[ 2023-01-14 13:27:47Z ]👍 1

Why even bother with steam OS? I'd wipe it and put windows on day one.

[ 2023-01-15 07:27:44Z ] 👍 0

Isit worth it tho?

It sucks the division 2 is on sale rn on steam ... Seems like Ubisoft doesn't really want the money🤷🏾‍♂️

Windows is just better valve should scrap everything and move to it pronton is just not reliable and a lot of issues happen with it if they moved to windows everything would be sorted but no they are just stubborn

[ 2023-01-15 17:54:44Z ]👍 0

Yep tested it on my Alienware and it didn't work for me either.

[ 2023-01-15 21:40:25Z ]👍 0

Crazy this was the first thing I thought of when I got my deck last year and extremely disappointed with ubisoft.

[ 2023-01-15 23:18:01Z ]👍 0

for me same pitfall. I run it under "lost"dows11 and it works. I have lostdows11 on an external M.2SSD, no problem at all, so to me Bills lostdows11 this time is a windows. Games for Linux should also be made by people domaining linux as well.

[ 2023-01-17 05:54:00Z ]👍 0

Try forcing compatibility with the latest version of proton, if a game does that sometimes that’ll help I use that with Jedi Fallen Order since I can’t boot into the old Origin launcher smh

[ 2023-01-17 09:09:17Z ] 👍 0

No. I explained the reasons in the video.

[ 2023-01-17 06:39:44Z ]👍 0

you can literally download easy anti cheat through desktop mode and it works.

[ 2023-01-17 10:10:17Z ] 👍 1

@rottentacocheese Easy Anti Cheat isn't something you just download in desktop mode. There is the Proton EasyAntiCheat Runtime, which is on Steam, but that doesn't change anything.

[ 2023-01-17 10:00:45Z ] 👍 0

@gamingonlinux don't know what to tell you bud. works on mine.

[ 2023-01-17 09:08:48Z ] 👍 0

That’s just not true.

[ 2023-01-17 12:35:38Z ]👍 0

I think is because of the anti cheat. Funny thing is the first one works, I tried on my steam deck. I was using the epic version of the game. They gave both version free a while ago.

[ 2023-01-18 15:48:06Z ]👍 1

Thanks for getting to the point quickly. :)

[ 2023-01-18 18:59:28Z ]👍 1

FYI there was just a patch for division 2 to fix this. It should now work.

Oh boy, someone is going to have to make an update video! Edit: oh boy, someone already did! :D

[ 2023-02-03 03:05:23Z ]👍 0

You should probably update the title and put in parenthesis "Now patched" or "updated"
