How good is the performance/controls for playing on Steam Deck?

[–] Sage_the_Lawyer 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Oh that's my bad. I missed what community this was in. I don't have any steam deck specific knowledge.

I've heard about some performance issues on multiplayer servers for console users, but iirc most people don't have issues for single player. Wish I could say more but I've only played on PC, sorry.

That's fine, I was just curious because Your previous answer sounded like you had a lot of experience in the game.

I guess I probably have more experience than the average player, about 25 hours so far. But I also learned my 3rd point the hard way, by doing ~10 hours of research outside of playing to try to optimize. It mostly just drove me crazy, but I did pick up a lot of little helpful tidbits. So if anyone has any general gameplay questions I'm happy to do my best to answer!

Just know I definitely don't consider myself an expert by any means. I'm not even at the level cap yet.
