This really sucks. Hunt is my comfort food. I play at least one match pretty much every day when I want a change of pace. I now have to dual boot into windows to play and to be honest I can’t be bothered. I don’t like aborting everything I have going on completely. In fact, Hunt working on Linux was a big reason I made the switch to Linux recently. Almost everything worked great including hunt.

What pieces of shit.
What was the issue? Was it related to anti-cheat or something?
I would recommend in the future to people here that if they are not dealing with an anti-cheat problem they should just lie about playing on Steam Deck or Linux in general.
From what I understand the whole point of Proton/WINE is that they translate Windows syscalls to Linux ones. It translates the program being run with Proton/WINE into stuff that the Linux system understands. There is a good chance that issues that pop up when running a game in WINE are also popping up on Windows itself.
Example: I had an issue with the Halo Master Chief Collection. After an update there was some problem with a Win64.exe preventing EAC from working. I tried looking up the error message, didn’t get anywhere. I submit a ticket and say that I am using the Steam Deck. Support tells me they don’t officially support the Steam Deck and closes the ticket.
I ended up refining my search more and found that this Win64.exe issue also happens on Windows and that a full reinstall is the solution. I did that and everything started working again.
Just lie to them. Lie within reason but just lie. Say you are running Windows 10 (Proton/WINE creates a Windows filesystem for each prefix), and say you are running some variety of Ryzen mini-PC.
Hunt was my “have to give it up” game switching to Linux.
Nothing we can do or say about it. I’ll make sure to buy Crysis4 off G2A, but that’s as much of a protest we can really do.
