-far cry 5
-proton 9.0.4
-pop_os cosmic alpha 7
-intel i9-9900kf
-radeon rx 7800xt
-48gb ram
-installed on an ssd
this.. has been.. exhausting. For some reason, far cry 5 is an absolute nightmare to run on my setup and I'm not sure why. If you try switching proton version it'll inevitably kill the uplay installation, so i used wine tricks to reinstall uplay, no more issues from that. I play the game, it launches, no problem. I go to use my controller(8bitdo ultimate 2c bluetooth) and no inputs at all. no matter the configuration of proton version, steam input disable/enabled, steam overlay or anything will fix it. ok. fine. whatever. I go to use my steam controller(the og 2015 one) and huzzah! it responds! even the stick works for selecting things in the menu, not my preferred controller to play fps games with but i can suck it up.. go to play the game game portion of the game, no response to inputs other than the mouse inputs. go to check the steam input section, for some reason the steam controller input is disabled and refuses to enable and will not budge at all. fine. ok. whatever. im cool. im calm. i can just.. play on keyboard and mouse, whatever, i just want to play the damn game. go to launch, everything in the menu is responsive, ok cool, so far so good, go to load in the playable part of the game, move mouse, instantly shot up to the sky and rotating regardless of movement input.......................... go to try to find fixes, look everywhere online for hours on end, nothing, go look up adjacent problems in other titles, nothing, go into the official ubisoft discord server only to get shunned by support because "we only help windows and mac os" ggeeeooookkaaaaayyyyyyyyy fine, fuck them, go to official proton db discord for help, told to log the files, go to do it, "this product cannot be activated at this time, please try again later"... I know this isn't a place to vent.... but i think i'm gonna throw myself in front of a train.
