Wow, didn't really expect this so soon - public testing just widely opened (to those with ranks) not that long ago.

Any indication of Linux builds being available?

edit: Updated, looks to be the case!

Awesome, we get Linux on release - but not during testing.

It ran via proton during beta but VAC did not allow playing on Valve servers. Now there is also a proper Linux version. Though I am not getting any sound for some reason. I'm sure there will be a fix soon.

Yea, I skipped playing mostly due to that. Without VAC there's not much point. Bots or cheat-competition servers/lobbies, lol.

Same here, actually - no sound. I don't even see the application in pavucontrol; even though the game sees my devices, it doesn't claim them?
