I never see many talk about planetside 2, so i thought i'd make an account and ask if there are any planetside 2 players out there on lemmy. What faction do you play? whats your favorite class? Vehicle? What do you enjoy most about the game?

I'm also looking for people to play with possibly. But im mostly curious what other linux users play in planetside 2.

Hi folks, title essentially. I'm using Open Razer and Polychromatic on PopOS right now for my keyboard, but I have a few other peripherals that are also RGB. A corsair cooler, my EVGA card, and my Gigabyte mobo lighting. I was wondering if there's a single pane I can organize them all with. I don't have super high expectations, but maybe there's something out there. Thanks!

My transition to full on Linux gaming mostly went okay, but recently I've started running into some issues with more demanding games. In games like Cyberpunk 2077, Stalker 2, and inZOI I sometimes get KDE and/or Wayland crashes when the VRAM runs out. In Cyberpunk I can avoid it by not enabling RTX, which is fine. But Stalker 2 and inZOI are basically all-in on raytracing and therefore seem to also fully eat up my 8GB of VRAM.

Is there any way of constraining the games to like 7.5 GB or something? Because they seem to actively work to stay below 8GB, so clearly there is still stuff they can clean up. And even if they'd go over the limit, I'd prefer the game to crash rather than basically having Wayland restart, losing everything I had open. I'm curious for you experiences

Play as Elroy and Peggie as you solve intriguing puzzles, uncover archaeological secrets, meet peculiar alien cultures, and enjoy wholesome emotional moments—all wrapped in a humorous tone in this modern point-and-click adventure.

Elroy is an ingenious rocket engineer whose father disappeared 18 years ago under suspicious circumstances. Peggie is a passionate investigative reporter with a knack for languages, history, and research.

Their quest begins with the discovery of a secret crystal and an enigmatic message, launching them from their hometown of Slope City on a journey through the cosmos to find Elroy’s long-lost father, all while unraveling a lurking threat to the very existence of the universe.

Comes with native GNU/Linux support

Using Mint cinnamon

I can launch the game easily enough. When I start playing in a match everything works fine initially. Anywhere from 30 seconds to 5 minutes into a match my fans will ramp up to full before my PC hangs and turns itself off.

Launching from steam with "-windowed -noborders" in the launch options, without this the game refuses to launch at all. Adding "-vulcan" to this causes no change to the above situation. I've tried running with a steam compatibility tool but it also refuses to launch. Happens when launching with the legacy opengl option too.

Don't know what to do from here, haven't seen anything similar looking online

Update with solution at the end

Hi all! If there's a better community for these questions I can post over there instead.

I'm not new to linux in general, but I am new to gaming on linux. I finally ditched Windows and installed Debian 12. I've got propriety Nvidia drivers installed, Steam's installed and I've only checked one other game so far (Palworld, working flawlessly).

Monster Hunter Wilds is just giving me a headache and I'm not quite sure how to troubleshoot it, whether it's something on my side (most likely) or something else. I can get the game to start using Proton Experimental (bleeding edge), it does it's graphics/shader thing, gets past the branding, and then freezes on the "Initializing Network" screen.

I've looked through through the ProtonDB and tried various launch options that were recommended, but still with no luck. I'm actually locked out for 24 hours because Denuvo sees switching Proton versions as trying to reinstall on multiple machines, so any potential solutions will have to be tested once that lock resets.

Happy to provide anything needed, logs or whatnot. Might just need to be pointed in the right direction to find those.

System Info:

• Debian 12 (bookworm)
• Kernel: 6.1.0-32-amd64
• CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5900X
• RAM: 32GB
• GPU: RTX 3060 Ti
• GPU Driver: 535.216.01

Edit: Finally got things working! Turns out that the Debian repositories don't have up to date drivers, didn't realize that going in. Fully removing Nvidia drivers and manually installing the latest version from Nvidia (Following this guide) has me playing again! There's a few visual glitches that I need to see if I can get fixed with some mods, but if anyone is having similar issues then it may be a driver error!

Hi! I recently moved to linux mint and I am fairly new into linux gaming. I play cs2 and it runs pretty well, but i used to play 4:3 stretched, and now when i put it my mouse just stop workin in cs2, it works out of cs2 but within the game i cannot click anything, have anyone experienced this before?
