      still showing you as ingame, because you have the launcher open should be an option.
      Or it should at least show, that your just in the launcher or something.
      I believe showing it as a separate game (like listing it as forged alliance forever in steam) is not possible i guess?

        I don't mind it affecting the Steam status, but it tries to open the Steam overlay ingame, and that seems to cause crashes on alt-tab for me (turning off steam before launching FAF fixes this).

        The crash specifically is due to the dx9 device being "lost".

        I've updated all my drivers, which I thought fixed the issue, yesterday, but it's now reoccurred.

          I kicked my brother off a competitive CS match because I launched FAF with Steam open. We share a Steam account so now I have to make sure Steam is closed before I launch FAF

          put the xbox units in the game pls u_u

            @auroraraven I disabled the entire steam overlay for all games because of this new FAF feature

              @Sheikah can you make it optional?

                  I would also like it if this was an optional feature.

                  In the meantime you can revert back to the previous client version here https://github.com/FAForever/downlords-faf-client/releases/tag/v2022.5.0

                  Proper feedback should go here. https://forum.faforever.com/topic/4244/client-2022-6-0-features

                    Optional as a whole, or optional as only be shown as playing supcom when actually playing supcom?

                      As a whole. I've detailed some reasons why in the proper feedback thread.

                        @zeldafanboy said in Steam shows i am ingame in Supcom when FAF is open:

                        That will teach him. Great time to introduce him to FAF 😉
