Steam Deck Compatibility

[Qpr]

Hi all,

Does steam release changed anything regarding steam deck compatibility on steam os ?

Or this still does not work ? I'm not seeing steam deck compatibility text on steam app so I don't know and I really want to play this

ProtonDB mentions one report of game not booting, which sounds like they did not give a f to allow WIne AC on Linux.

They refused to do it for the crew 2 as well, so i doubt anything will change here.

Play Forza Horizon instead, really. I confirm they work great on Deck and they're less likely to be stolen from you.

I played all horizons, a lot of hours there. Also played 4 on deck, it is better but I wanted to play something else ;)

it uses Ubisoft Connect launcher and an anti-cheat so it would probably not run on steam deck currently

Maybe wait for TDU Solar Crown then. It's the same always-online racing MMO like Forza and The Crew, but at least it's not a Ubisoft game.

I'm even in beta for TDU ;)

Demo throws some Ubisoft Launcher error

No it don’t launch you just get a black screen. I asked Ubisoft if they were planning to fix it they said they have no one working on it which I found bizzare because it could be fixed in a few minutes with a very small patch. I know this because I used a small downloaded patch in desktop mode through Ubisoft connect to get it working on the deck in the past.

They work pretty crappy on the deck, actually, often breaking when an update arrives and requires a lot of fiddling with proton. But at least it does work for the most part

Weirdly enough, when the game initially released people to the UbiConnect version running on Steam Deck.
And I am sure that the Deck ran its original software (as in, SteamOS) back then.

I never had any such issue with either of the Horizon games on my Deck.

Guess I will be skipping on the game even if it’s for free

Noooooooo.
I wanted to play that one, at least the demo, because I heard it has good Dualsense features.

Can you tell me please, where you found the patch? I don't get it working and I cannot find any working fixes on SteamOS
