We do not officially support Linux and we cannot commit to having support for launch. We are still working on Official Linux Proton compatibility.

This official stance has not changed since pre-release.

We admit there was a mistake in communication by our CM which was unfortunetly screenshotted in our Discord and then posted on the linux Reddit, when the official stance has always been 'we are working on proton compatibility'.

Any previous Alpha/Beta test where Linux worked was by happen stance, which led to some users discuss the game as being Linux compatible. However, as previously stated - we do not yet officially support Linux and we are still working on our proton support for WARDOGS. We will update our stance once we have this confirmed. That is our goal.

We cannot commit to having Linux support for our Early Access launch. So please, refund the game if you mistakenly bought it thinking you would be able to run Linux via Proton on September 10th. We hope to have you back as soon as we can confirm official compatibility.

We know this is not what you want to hear... but the continued demand for Linux has been heard and it is still in our sights. Thankyou.

I played a few hours during the first closed beta. Something of a mix between Battlefield and Hell Let Loose IMO. More down-time (walking long distances, defending positions, lying on your back waiting for revive) than BF. More action than HLL and no enforced support roles. Though there are no in-game classes, some players still end up taking on roles such as continuously driving/flying players from the spawn to the combat area, or just hanging out in bases and upgrading them. Not sure what I think of the persistent economy.. In theory it could act as a soft balance for powerful vehicles, but it also allows a player to grind money one match, and then use it all in a different match.
