@cleka010 Did you rollback to 9.0-3 after getting 9.0-4 or are you going by prior experiences? I tried the game on 9.0-4 and 9.0-3 and in my case both were affected by lower performance in online matches, checked on windows as well and there I saw the same issue

[cleka010]

the 9.0-3 it's best solution by far , I mean works a lot of better than windows 11 where the game is unplayable and crash constanly
in LInux above 9.0-3 is stuttering a lot, below 9.0-3 the EAC support not works for me.
the only problem with 9.0-3 is that steam in-game-overlay not works whereas in the experimental it does but keeps the stuttering

with 9.0-3 I get 60fps/60hz to avoid stuttering online mode, that game is a piece of programing-trash in general and locked at 60hz in online mode and there lies the main source of problems in that mode, plus shaders, plus 2k servers...bla, bla
you need at least 60fps in online modes to play fine but that I said 2k25 is a trash piece of code that is always in beta status

@cleka010 I think you misunderstood my question. Have you played with proton 9.0-3 after proton 9.0-4 released? Are you using 9.0-3 right now?

[cleka010]

ah , yes yes I am playing with 9.0-3 now I rolledback
