Same here on linux mint, I tried a couple of versions of proton, but I get a black screen at launch. After 1 to 2 minutes of waiting it crashes.
The game log ends at the line :
Failed to take a screen shot even before starting!

i think they will solve this problem soon

I guess some Crytek employee thought they were being real clever to check whenever the game can actually take screenshots periodically of all the windows (which they do and upload to find cheaters), instead of just letting EAC check for it with the unix implementation. On the upside, this can be fixed with one line of code.

Lets hope they fix it quickly

You think thats the reason it crashes? Would be an easy fix indeed.
If anyone needs some further information heres the game.log and crycrash_error.log

Have been looking forward to this moment for months. Such a letdown.

Anyone got Hunt devs on speed dial? we need this fixed asap.

Hunt Devs are not known for patching quickly!

yeah...same here,fresh update crashes!

[Hobo]

Oh, guess that'd explain why I can't play right now as well. Well, fingers crossed they fix it a bit more quickly than last time this happened, considering it's a very easy fix.
