Doesn’t work on Steam Deck

I tried opening a new map and it seems that with all the DLC I have, it causes the whole steam deck to become unresponsive. Can’t even put down my first road.

Can anyone confirm this? I haven’t tried removing DLC yet.

Okay I figured out how to disable the DLC and it seems to work now. Looks like anyone interested in trying this on the steam deck will probably have to disable a few DLC to get it to run.

I think they will also need to reconfigure the controls, as the Steam deck seems to assume CS used a controller…which this version of the game does not, obviously.

Having the same problem, didn't try loading it without dlc but hopefully they will bring out a fully compatible version soon

Which DLC did you remove? I have most of the DLC packs and am running many mods.

I can't remember off the top of my head, but I remember removing basically all of them in order for the game to work. And even then, it was extremely laggy, it feels like the steam deck just can't handle even loading an empty city for some reason.

I tried to open any kind of map, including saves and editors, but it continuously shuts down, and shows the same screen as it would if it would download the newest steamOS version. I even deactivated all mods and DLC, but it still does not work. The stupidest thing is that it worked wonderful a few months ago.
