Destiny 2 (F2P)

Post by CptJericho »

Hello everyone!
I'm extremely invested in getting Destiny 2 (through Steam) to run on Ubuntu 18.04. Personally, it is my favorite game and one of my therapeutic FPSs. Professionally, it poses a great academic challenge to port an amazing game to Linux.
What I know so far:
Wine (All Versions) will not run Destiny 2 as of 1-13-2020
- Listed as Garbage
- Posts in comments say installs but will not run (Attributed to Anti-Cheat)
- Reddit verifies claiming anti-cheat
Proton will not run Desting 2 as of 1-12-2020
- Listed as Borked.
- Many comments claiming it installs but will not run.

What I don't know so far:
What Anticheat Destiny 2 uses ( and what problems this poses)
How to port (any) game to Linux

So what is this post for?
I can't be the only Linux user wanting to play. Let's share some ideas, maybe get weird with some code and configs.


TLDR;
LFG to make Destiny 2 playable on Linux Ubuntu 18.04.

Destiny 2 uses its own custom anti-cheat. So chances are that it will never work in Wine. They (Bungie) even have been banning users for trying to run under Wine.

You an also join the petition to get Bungie to make it work in Linux.
