I know the EA app has been a huge pain in the ass for deckers, but I’m hoping this part is easier to deal with.

I currently have no problems running the app itself (for now). But I don’t think this issue is directly related.

I’m trying to play “A Way Out” with someone, and it launches fine (but does look squished like the resolution is wrong even after changing it - nevermind seeing it to “windowed” or “borderless windowed” fixed that as I was typing this). The issue is I can’t seem to get the friends past to work to invite or accept invites. The friends UI is just great rounded rectangles that I can’t click on or interact with. All I can do is press escape to go back to the main menu.

Any ideas? I don’t even have a guess what causes this. For what it’s worth, the EA app itself does the same thing on the right side. Looks very similar to how it does in game.

    Have you tried different version of proton, proton GE or even wine?

    I have only had good luck with using wine with the ea app on my desktop PC.

      I’ve only tried 2 so far, it was kind of a last minute thing last night. Tried the default first, kinda by accident, and I don’t think the game would even launch. Experimental at least gets me to the menu.

      I don’t know much about wine itself, didn’t have a ton of luck with it on desktop.
