We do not officially support Linux and we cannot commit to having support for launch. We are still working on Official Linux Proton compatibility.
This official stance has not changed since pre-release.
We admit there was a mistake in communication by our CM which was unfortunetly screenshotted in our Discord and then posted on the linux Reddit, when the official stance has always been ‘we are working on proton compatibility’.
Any previous Alpha/Beta test where Linux worked was by happen stance, which led to some users discuss the game as being Linux compatible. However, as previously stated - we do not yet officially support Linux and we are still working on our proton support for WARDOGS. We will update our stance once we have this confirmed. That is our goal.
We cannot commit to having Linux support for our Early Access launch. So please, refund the game if you mistakenly bought it thinking you would be able to run Linux via Proton on September 10th. We hope to have you back as soon as we can confirm official compatibility.
We know this is not what you want to hear… but the continued demand for Linux has been heard and it is still in our sights. Thankyou.
I’m finding the apologies and the “just refund the game” messaging from the devs becoming a little annoying at this point. I get they’re being transparent and accountable for their fuckups (which is good!), but it would be nice if they just got their shit together and stopped fucking up.
It’s like if I accidentally stepped on your toes, apologized, then I accidentally knocked over your coffee, apologized again, and finally I accidentally broke your mug, and apologized once more. And each time I apologized, I offered you the opportunity to breakup our friendship together.
