HardAct Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 NEW FAVORITE on Ally, but it's an OLD GAME! I gave up on this game on Steam Deck as you have to jump through lots of hoops to get it to run. Installing Protontrixs, etc so I gave up about 6 months ago. I then remembered it and thought it should run at least as it's w11 so I installed it on the Ally. It runs perfectly as it should as its not very taxing I would imagine. This is a really fun game twin stick shooter and I'm glad I gave it another look on the ROG Ally. Check it out if you own it, or buy it maybe if you don't. It's a blast!

Keyser_Soze Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 I could have sworn this game was co-op. I know I played it with friends, but maybe I didn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XxEvil AshxX Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 I have this on Xbox 360. For whatever reason, it was never given the back compat treatment, which is a shame cuz it is a pretty fun game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbsolutSurgen Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 This is the one game that has been installed on my PC for every day of the last 6-7 years. It has no business being this good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I only skimmed the steam page, it doesn't say co-op on it yet it does if you read the description so yeah I played this game thank you!

stepee Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 It was $3.50 with the dlc and I like getting stuff to run that doesn’t normally so I got it, set it up, and played a bit on the deck! It does seem like a very good arcadey Mercs/Jungle Strike combo sorta thing with tons of destruction. I never played this before, good random shout out.

Xbob42 Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 Yeah, looks like it still requires protontricks, but apparently runs at a solid 60 on Deck once set up. According to the most recent ProtonDB post: Quote The game will not work at all without the Protontricks fix (black screen at launch). Tutorial for those who haven't used Protontricks before: In desktop mode, search for and install Protontricks from the Discover store, then launch it. Select Renegade Ops from the app list > OK. "Select the default wineprefix" > OK. "Install a Windows DLL or component > OK. Tick the checkboxes for d3dcompiler_43 and d3dcompiler_47 > OK. When the next window appears, you're finished. Click the 'X' in the top right corner to close out Protontricks, then return to gaming mode. Maybe I'll set it up. I got it when it came out and it seemed cool, but I dropped it very quickly for a reason I can't remember, and have totally forgotten about it until now.

It looks like the protontricks gui doesn’t launch by default from Discover so use this guide: I just did it all from Konsole. It said it didn’t have access to my sd card but gave a full command to run in Konsole so I copied that command then ran it after the script finished and then ran through the process again and it worked - forced Proton 7.0 in compatibility. And it was running a perfect 90fps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xbob42 Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 Hm? Protontricks has always launched for me. Takes about 30 seconds to pop up a window for some reason, but works every time. Just memorized those steps and did them while on the toilet, game runs flawlessly! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll admit I read that before I even tried it! Yeah it runs great and looks real nice on the oled (and is fun!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
