Edit 2: Finally found the solution, a user on GitHub got it https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/519#issuecomment-1569721291 It was due to my Intel ARC GPU apparently that is missing some support

Edit 1: I installed the Epic version too with Heroic and it starts without a hitch, so I think we can rule out hardware issues, still when it gets to the loading screen within the game it alternatively fails saying that it can’t connect to the net or isn’t able to instantiate EAC

I just got the game after looking on ProtonDB since it is supported apparently, but every time I launch it, it always just crashes like that.
The only info I could get was from running from the terminal, at some point it says for 11 times:

LogWindows: Warning: SymLoadModuleExW. Error: 6

And then:

LogWindows: Error: === Critical error: ===
LogWindows: Error:
LogWindows: Error: Fatal error!
LogWindows: Error:
LogWindows: Error: Unhandled Exception: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION reading address 0x0000000000000000

There’s a lot of other stuff too before and after, if that is important tell me and I’ll add that in, but I figured it wasn’t, I have no knowledge though.

    do you have proton eac runtime installed? you can find it in your library by searching.

      Yes, I’m pretty sure, since it should get installed automatically when a game running on Steam Play needs it.

      Also you can see the anticheat loading bar in the screenshot, after that closes, the Unreal crash reporting window pops up

      Edit: checked and it is installed

        is your mesa, vulkan-intel, vulkan-mesa-layers packages up to date? it should be at least 23.1

          Maybe? Those are the names of the packages on Arch, but I’m on fedora, I tried looking for relevant packages in my system and found these:

          $ rpm -qa | grep mesa
mesa-filesystem-23.1.2-1.fc38.x86_64
mesa-libxatracker-23.1.2-1.fc38.x86_64
mesa-va-drivers-23.1.2-1.fc38.x86_64
mesa-libgbm-23.1.2-1.fc38.x86_64
mesa-libEGL-23.1.2-1.fc38.x86_64
mesa-libglapi-23.1.2-1.fc38.x86_64
mesa-dri-drivers-23.1.2-1.fc38.x86_64
mesa-libGL-23.1.2-1.fc38.x86_64
mesa-vulkan-drivers-23.1.2-1.fc38.x86_64

          $ rpm -qa | grep vulkan
mesa-vulkan-drivers-23.1.2-1.fc38.x86_64
vulkan-loader-1.3.243.0-1.fc38.x86_64
vulkan-tools-1.3.243.0-1.fc38.x86_64

          Mesa is definitely at version 23.1 but I don’t know for sure if Intel specific stuff is there, maybe Fedora packages for all vendors in a single package?
