This worked for my Mac + Whisky (WINE) install of the game. and this seems like it's something new as the pre-patches version of the game on steam worked well, albeit wasn't able to connect to find multiplayer games and could not use the steam launcher to start the game in directX11 mode.
All in all the game works on Mac + Whisky and PS5 in offline mode today, sounds like there's a bug in a network portion of the code, from another post in this forum it seems like it could be tied to online presence... But curious to hear from support as to what the post-mortem of this will be.
