The only reason I boot up Windows at this point is to play shooters with EAC. What do you guys play if you’re looking for a quick 20-minute firefight?
Xonotic is always a good one.
Full agree on Xonotic! Has also a somewhat active online play.
Shatterline and Caliber
Both free to play, on Steam, and work using Proton.
I play a lot of Apex Legends. It works very well on Linux.
Hunt Showdown runs on Linux with Proton and it has EAC
It does!? Since when, this is news to me.
Splitgate
CS:GO, Halo MCC, Overwatch 2
though I don’t know if OW2 counts as good anymore, certainly not a fan of the changes, but it still works on Linux
Some EAC games support linux like halo. I played MCC and the performance was fine, but I found the game to be unstable when interacting with the menu/UI.
Krunker is nice for a quick match. You can play it directly from your browser or download it from steam
Older game but red orchestra 2 is a classic ww2 shooter with a decent online community. Matches are around the 20 - 30 minute mark.
I didn’t know it was still active. I have it in my Steam library. Thanks!
My go-tos are tf2 and tf2 - that is Team Fortress 2 and Titanfall 2. Both work great on Linux and have really dedicated communities. Titanfall 2 even has the Northstar client.
Insurgency Sandstorm is pretty good and CS:GO is always a classic go-to.
