Hi all, just got GTA IV on Steam and wanted to fire it up on the Deck after reading plenty of excellent reviews here.
I got the launcher to install but after I put in a Rockstar Social Club account, I just see the button that is supposed to say ‘Next’ display a little loading circle for what seems like forever. Then I get an error saying there’s a CAPTCHA error (I didn’t click or play with anything that looks like a CAPTCHA…)
Have tried reinstalling, forcing Proton Experimental, to no avail. Any advice, peeps?
P.S. F*** DRM and F*** the money-grubbers over at what’s left of Rockstar that can’t even get the games they still sell to work right.
I recently (2 weeks ago) got it to work, I THINK I used Proton 7 or 8. Give that a shot. The later Proton builds seem borked for GTA IV somehow.
Thanks! It worked when I used 7 to install the launcher, then Experimental to actually run the game…
