Hello, as per title I’m trying to play EFT through Lutris. I used the installer on the website and everything seem to be working (launcher starts and game launches) but I can’t join raids. Tried three times a scav raid but I always get disconnected when it’s actually time to join.

Anyone knows what could the problem be?

Thanks in advance!

edit: nevermind, found a guided installation video from last year and it looks like multiplayer isn’t supported at the moment

    Same thing I experience. The issue has to lie somewhere with BE implementation, since the offline raids work. Hopefully they’ll fix it someday

        Oh, I see, I haven’t checked that yet, I assumed things couldn’t have gotten worse than the video I watched, but I guess I was wrong lol

          Well, now since I followed I video tutorial, it had me install the proton Batteye runtime and add its path as a variable in the config settings, and now I can do the offline raids. That’s some progress.

          Still will have to wait for online, though. Unfortunate.

        Actually, just tried it now, I can get into offline raids without issues. Just much lower FPS compare to Windows (although I haven’t played in a long time, so I don’t know if an update tanked performances).

        I installed it with the Lutris script and modified nothing, so try again!

          Y’know, that is true- but its actually running substantially better than I anticipated. The lowest FPS I got on interchange was 60 which is still playable.

          Ground zero is a no-go, though. That was running at 20 FPS at best. I haven’t tried streets yet.

            I have a very outdated PC so even with the lowest settings possible I get less than 60 on Woods, with drops when I fire weapons. Haven’t tried other maps yet. Still, as I said, dom’t know how much of it is because of game updates/snow and how much is because of Wine. Not that it matters too much, since without multiplayer I won’t spend much time playing EFT lol

            Is there any way to have some semblance of progression in offline raids? Playing like this is kind of boring, especially since I can’t really make money and get better or more interesting kits besides the ones you start with. Guess I could study and learn the maps in hopes to have a fully working MP in future lol

              There are a couple projects ongoing for playing tarkov in a single-player fashion. I have not been paying attention to them for a while now, though. Those are SPTarkov and Tarkov AKI.
