Easy anticheat and linux/proton steamdeck support#806

As of right now deadside launches and runs reletivly stable on the steamdeck, but after playing for under a minute you get kicked from any server for anticheat violation.
When will we see officail deadside support for proton linux and when will we see deadside devs work with Easy anti cheat to recognize the steamdeck as ligitamate?

+1. The game runs great on Linux with Proton but I keep getting kicked out for “Easy Anticheat Violation”. It’s a relatively easy fix on the development side - looks like just a check a box in their EAC settings. Please fix so that non-windows users can enjoy the game

Adding for discussion, enabling Battleye for Linux and Steam Deck support would be a great move!

For the devs, here is the official documentation for enabling it, it’s quite easy and doesn’t require recompiling your game or even making a Linux build for it:

All the more relevant since Windows 10 is EOL and so many people are swapping to Linux like myself!

+1 on this commented on a similar ticket, it’s a pain trying to play having to make a kvm or dual boot just for this game

I’ve fully abandoned windows and really miss deadside. I’ve logged 1,773 hours in game to date but I cannot go back to windows. Please add native linux support.

They don’t even need to send an email from the official documentation that I linked.

Holy shit, no way. Planned? Or are you just fucking with us?
I’ll personally buy every dev a beer if this is real.
