In 3 hours Cities: Skylines II will launch: is there any report on how it runs with Proton? (lemmy.world)

ProtonDB doesn't have any report yet but YouTube is full of videos of content creators that got early access to the game. I was curious to know if anyone tried it with Proton and how it works...

EDIT I just installed it and it seems to work out-of-the-box for me on Ubuntu 23.10 with a AMD 7900 XTX and AMD 5800X. I'm getting around 55 fps at 3440x1440 with almost everything high beside having disabled V-Sync, DoF and Motion blur. AA set to TAA 2x.

Runs like hot garbage on medium 4K on a 6900XT. 25fps with an empty city. On launch, it defaulted to ultimate settings, and had the menus chugging at 3fps.

Feels like they accidentally shipped a debug/non-optimized build to customers.

They flatout said the performance is not where they wanted it to be. This state was to be expected. Nonetheless glad it's on gamepads and hope that I'll be able to run it some day.

I meant what I said. 4fps on menus is officially “bug” category, not “urrrrr it’s not where we want it to be”.
