Unable to play on Linux/Refund
I understand that because of the anti-cheat they use (BattlEye) the game isn't supported on Linux. I also know that there BattlEye natively supports Linux, but it's an opt-in feature. Looking it up myself on how to activate BattlEye on Linux, it really is just a few lines of code, if even that.
SO WHY NOT ON LINUX?!
There I was, freshly installed CachyOS. Downloading all my favorite games to play tomorrow. Hell I've heard that there was a sale for EVERY expansion on Destiny 2, immediately bought that so I can play it when it finishes downloading.... hmm, why did it only briefly flash the start screen? Maybe wrong proton or wine version? That's when I found out about BattlEye.
If it's to prevent cheating, it wasn't working back when I was on windows. Saw at least a cheater every 2-3 PvP matches. And if Bungie has time for someone to make an announcement, then they have time to switch BattlEye: Linux support on!
I went to refund both destiny 2 and the dlcs because I LITERALLY could not play it! I love the game, especially the gunplay, but they aren't getting my money if I, again, literally could not play it.

3 Replies1. The anti-cheat isn’t the only reason it’s not on linux. 2. It may just be a few lines of code and/or button presses to activate battleye on linux, but there’s a helluva lot more that bungie would have to do. 3. Do you not read the system reqs before buying something on pc?

Hello there[url=https://tuxydoh.com/images/hi.gif],[/url] All refund requests would need to go through the retailer that sold you the game and would be subject to their refund policies. The Windows os is listed as a requirement and no plans have been announced to change that have been made.
