Im so happy for the new game Delta Force which is in open beta right now and going to be a BF killer. EA and Dice can go to hell!

Have they stated that they're going to support Linux or at least Proton/Wine? I did a quick search on the game's Steam forum and it sounded like it doesn't work currently.

It sounds like they're using Anti-Cheat Expert, which is some Chinese AC. It doesn't support Linux and there isn't an existing wine module to support it, like there is for Battle Eye and EAC. So no, it won't work at least for the moment.

Weird for someone to bring that up in a linux community, then.

Anyways buy Ravenfield.
