Rules:
This runs incredibly well on the SD. EAC works, smooth 60 fps with minimal drops on recommended settings. Game freezes on exit, but that's a non issue to me. Didn't expect that from Microsoft lol
That's amazing! Does multiplayer works too?
I wonder what's the Microsoft plan, first Halo now Gears it looks like they care about Steam Deck but why?
Good question about MP, I just tested it on the SD but no luck unfortunately: GoW services not available. At least EAC loads correctly on startup, so it shouldn't be too hard to fix.
I tried it on my Arch Linux machine and multiplayer did not work. I would assume its the same on the Steam Deck. Seems like they didn't get EAC working yet.
Great way to increase sales for old games with minimal effort.
