thanks

Also works fine for me on Steam Deck.
One or 2 crashes but can’t tell early days if that’s Steam Deck related or just because of early access.
Gameplay and everything runs fine though

Works very well on my Asus Rog Ally Z1 Extreme too. Very smooth.
Yes still working. Again I had a random crash here and there but I think that’s to be expected until it’s optimised for Steam Deck.
I haven’t tried playing offline actually I’ve always been connected to WiFi

I’m playing only on my Asus Rog Ally Z1 Extreme. The game runs very well.
SteamDeck runs well, but the game crashes when trying to access the Graphics settings menu specifically. I tested it 3 times, crashed each time.

A question relating to Steam Deck always online functionality. Is this something that is going to persist in the full game release? With Cricket 24 this wasn’t a requirement and I put a fair amount of hours in on flights etc. where no internet connection was available.
Just wanted to check if this was an early access restriction, or if it is a technical requirement that is going to persist in the full release.

I’m 90% certain it does. I definitely put a lot of hours into the Nintendo Switch version of Cricket 22, and I’m pretty sure a lot of my hours in Cricket 24 on the Steamdeck had been on flights in airplane mode, but there is a chance I’m getting a bit mixed on it.
Ah that’s really disappointing. Guess I must’ve gotten it confused with the Switch version. A bit annoying that it can work in offline mode on one portable console and not another. Not exactly sure what the need is to enforce an always online mode for everything rather than only enforcing it for downloading players/teams or playing online matches.

Just posted a comment in the main thread to say the game won’t seem to launch on Steam Deck anymore

It’s working fine on Steamdeck. However there is still the instant crash when going to Settings - Graphics @JNT_BA @Lachie_BA

Honestly looks like nothing is working, can’t even add players to a team
