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?
Hunt Showdown runs on Linux with Proton and it has EAC
Xonotic is always a good one.
Full agree on Xonotic! Has also a somewhat active online play.
Krunker is nice for a quick match. You can play it directly from your browser or download it from steam
Why not just CS:GO? But I’m only saying this because I have no real recommendation tbh. For offline I can recommend Ravenfield. It’s really fun even though the native Linux version is kind of broken when using mods which is kinda the point of the game. Works fine using Proton though
I play a lot of Apex Legends. It works very well on Linux.
Splitgate
Older game but red orchestra 2 is a classic ww2 shooter with a decent online community. Matches are around the 20 - 30 minute mark.
Shatterline and Caliber
Both free to play, on Steam, and work using Proton.
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.
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.
Oh wow, I used to play tons of Titanfall. I’ll check out Northstar. Thank you.
