Symptoms

• The game's launcher renders incorrectly
• The launcher's settings menu doesn't scale to my HiDPI display (3840 x 2160)
• The game launches with EAC support but the cross-platform invite codes don't work, in my experience. (I have an Open NAT type) and I usually don't have a problem with connecting to my friend for games at all (except this one)

Reproduction

1. Install the EAC runtime from the tools library
2. Install the game
3. Set Proton 7.0-4 as the used Proton version, if not already
4. Run the game and reach the main menu
5. Start a campaign or PvP multiplayer session
6. Use the game's invite code system to either share it with a player on Xbox (this was what I did) or have the other layer share it with you
7. Join or be joined by the other player
8. Receive an error code

Start with the attached steam-1029690.log and the Proton 7.0-4 reproduction steps. Reproduce the launcher rendering and HiDPI problems, then test the EAC invite-code failure in campaign or PvP sessions. Done means identifying a reproducible compatibility cause or confirming the affected behavior with focused evidence.
