Currently, Endzone 2 is not officially Steam Deck Verified or labeled as Playable, which is understandable given its Early Access status. However, as with many early access titles, the game can still run on the Deck if you’re willing to tweak a few settings. And of course, if you’re reading this, you’ve already gotten it to work on your device. Now, the next step is optimizing the in-game settings to make sure you get the best performance possible. So, let’s dive into the recommended adjustments to make your Endzone 2 experience on the Steam Deck as smooth as possible.
Best Endzone 2 Steam Deck Settings for high FPS & performance
To access and tweak these settings for the best performance on your Steam Deck, start by launching Endzone 2 and head out to the main menu. From there, click on the “Options” section, and then click on the “Graphics” tab to make the necessary adjustments. Here’s a breakdown of the optimal settings:
Best Settings!
- Display: Default
- Resolution: 1280x720p
- Display Mode: Fullscreen
- Maximum Frames per Second: Unlimited
- VSync: Off
Next, make the following changes under the Render Quality Options:
- Texture Quality: Medium
- Shadow Quality: Medium
- Bloom: Off
- Antialiasing: Off
- Sharpen: Off
- Ground Fog: Off
These settings should strike a balance between visual quality and smooth gameplay. You can count on it to get the highest possible FPS and performance while exploring the post-apocalyptic world of Endzone 2 on your Steam Deck.
Also, do note that these settings are not set in stone, and you’re absolutely free to tweak them further based on your personal preferences and performance needs. First of all, set an FPS limit of 30 FPS and a refresh rate limit of 60 Hz with no TDP limit from SteamOS settings. For starters, you can experiment with the resolution settings, but avoid pushing it too high. Anything between 720p and 1080p should work well for the Steam Deck’s display without significantly impacting performance. Additionally, you can try bumping up the Texture and Shadow Quality settings to High to see how it affects your FPS; just keep an eye on the performance to check it’s still smooth. As for post-processing effects like Bloom, Antialiasing, Sharpen, and Ground Fog, it’s generally best to keep them off if you prioritize high FPS on the Deck. However, feel free to toggle them on if you’re willing to sacrifice a few frames for improved visuals. By making these adjustments, you can find the perfect balance between performance and visual quality that suits your gameplay style!
