Guide: Installing WWII Online on Linux with Steam Proton

This guide describes how to use Steam Proton to play and run Windows games on your Linux computer. Some games may not work or may break because Steam Proton is still at a very early stage.


1. Activating Steam Proton for Linux:
Proton is integrated into the Steam Client with "Steam Play." To activate proton, go into your steam client and click on Steam in the upper right corner. Then click on settings to open a new window. From here, click on the Steam Play button at the bottom of the panel. Click "Enable Steam Play for Supported Titles."

Alternatively: Go to Steam > Settings > Steam Play and turn on the "Enable Steam Play for Supported Titles" option.

Valve has tested and fixed some Steam titles and you will now be able to play most of them. However, if you want to go further and play titles that even Valve hasn't tested, toggle the "Enable Steam Play for all titles" option.


2. Choose a version
You should use the Steam Proton version recommended by Steam: 3.7-8. This is the most stable version of Steam Proton at the moment.


3. Restart your Steam
After you have successfully activated Steam Proton, click "OK" and Steam will ask you to restart it for the changes to take effect. Restart it. Your computer will now play all of steam's whitelisted games seamlessly.


4. Launch Stardew Valley on Linux:
Before you can use Steam Proton, you must first download the Stardew Valley Windows game from Steam. When you download Stardew Valley for the first time, you will notice that the download size is slightly larger than the size of the game.
This happens because Steam will download your chosen Steam Proton version with this game as well. After the download is complete, simply click the "Play" button.

What is WWII Online? Features and Description

The ultimate grand-scale campaign and FPS simulation of WWII in Europe, with a huge zone-less 24/7 persistent game world and up to 5000 simultaneous players engaged in hours-long battles. A military-grade simulator with more than 200 play-able historically accurate weapons.

THE FIRST AND ONLY WWII MMO WARGAME SINCE 2001

Key Features:
  • Single permanent server (worldwide community with 24/7 interactions)
  • Combined Air/Ground/Sea battles
  • Server capacity for 5,000 concurrent players
  • Huge historical map to conquer (no zones)
  • Large set of WWII weapons from different axis/allied nations
  • Detailed infantry & vehicle simulation (controls, damages, performances...)
  • Required teamwork by fear of death
  • Freedom of a player-driven game play (no coded scenarios)
  • 99.99% PvP (with some AI defensive support)
  • WWII data & facts authenticity (orbat, models, timeline, table of equipment, load-out..)

THE VIRTUAL BATTLEFIELD DOES EXIST!

World War II Online is a Massively Multiplayer FPS, simulation game set in the Western Front of WWII and hosted on a huge single map. There is virtually no limit to the amount of players that can join the battlefield and fight as infantry, tanker, pilot or captain!

The game offers a strategic and persistent winnable Campaign that is completely player-driven, both in the strategic planning and players fighting to control territory, with more than 240 weapons and vehicles. Fly the Spitfire, drive the Tiger or the Sherman Firefly, shoot with the Flak36 88mm, sail a destroyer... WWII Online’s game play is unmatched in terms of scale, realism and replay ability.

ALL OUT WAR, ON A MASSIVE SCALE

Its scale is a massive 300,000 SQ KM that is an interconnected and zone-less game world offering total freedom for players. This scale allows for truly immersive combined arms pvp combat. Communication between the Army, Air Force, and Naval units that are engaged will help determine the outcome! There are no limitations to how many players can interact in a battle space.

SERIOUS HISTORICAL ACCURACY

All weapons, vehicles, munitions and ordinance perform according to realistic values. We have achieved this through direct access to historical archives, a network of military experts and our advanced proprietary game engine that goes in depth like never before. Armor on tanks and aircraft, as well as their internal components, are modeled down to the millimeter.

HIGHLY DETAILED DAMAGE MODELS

Our damage models go into extreme detail with each component being destroyable in vehicles including crew, weapon storage, gas tanks and more! You don’t just shoot a hitbox? NO! With every shot fired, multiple calculations take place that determine the round impact consequences. Some of these include; angle of obliquity, speed of round at impact, thickness of the armor, internal spall, armor penetration, parts of tank damaged, etc.

FAIR GAME PLAY FOR ALL

Just like in real life, the outcome of each engagement will be determined by strategy, tactics, teamwork, and your weapon handling skills! In WWII Online there are no special power ups or item buys giving someone a special advantage against other players.

CONTINUOUS DEVELOPMENT


Thousands of manhours have already been invested in this game since 2001. Become part of History, the World War II Online project is alive and growing!
Read our 2019-2020 development roadmap.

SQUAD-DRIVEN GAME


WWII Online is a serious game that requires time investment, a willingness to work as a team player. If you do not join a squad and voice comms, you will likely be lost and frustrated.

Each time you log in, a pop up window will show you the currently available squad recruiters. You can check the list of existing squads and their stats on the Squad Tools page.

For the best game play experience possible, you should first get on the Allied or Axis WWII Online Discord Server. Integrated voicomms are currently into development.

SUBSCRIPTION BASED GAME

WWII Online has always been and remain a subscription based game. This helps for operating costs like our game servers, bandwidth, power, staff, etc. and thus keep our single map up 24/7/365. (subscription comparison / breakdown here).

The STARTER subscription unlocks medium tanks, bombers, armored cars, all paratroopers, grenadiers and mortarmen. It is the best deal to start playing the game and gain your first ranks.
When campaigns reach higher tiers, however, you will need more teamwork and better tactics to face heavier weapons.

The PREMIUM subscription unlocks the complete game experience, within restrictions of your current in game rank and the ongoing campaign Tier. We recommend the premium subscription to players with rank 4 and above.

There are NO micro-transactions nor advertisements in game. Your rank only will unlock heavier equipment.

CURRENT CAMPAIGN IS NUMBER 168, STARTING ON 28 August 2019

IN-GAME UNITS CONTROLS

Controls in World War II Online are not the same as those setup in arcade FPS games. Vehicles require multiple controls to be played with a more realistic (but constraining) approach. Please take the time to study which controls are setup by default. You can customize these through our "KEYMAPPER":

More information about the game can be found on the official wiki.
Use the « help » chat channel whenever needed, in game (activate by pressing F6 once) or on DISCORD. Always ask for other players or for a squad to stick to.

User Reviews

“The battles that follow aren’t typical of most first-person action games.”
Warfare History Network

“an incredibly fun and long lasting game for any war gamer or history buff. ... you’ll still be playing this months, or even years, from now.”
8.4/10 – Game Chronicles

“it’s remarkably compulsive. The concept and the individual challenges are unique, and the sheer difficulty of it makes riding a tank for 20 miles peculiarly rewarding. ... there’s nothing else quite like it.”
4/5 – Games Radar
