Later, they basically said, "Look, we don't really have the knowledge to support this, so you can ask for a refund if you exclusively bought the game to play on Linux, and if you are using Proton/Wine/etc, you can play on non-EAC community servers" (since official servers use Linux incompatible EAC). They aren't hostile to the Linux community, but Gary and the team feel like they aren't up to the task, so they don't officially support things anymore. permalink fedilink source parent
