Hello sawyer22,
We can use the website protondb, managed by steam, for the community to report how to get games working with linux.
This is the page for counter strike 2...
https://www.protondb.com/app/730
When you use protondb you want to be very careful, some people spread misinformation there...usually they recommend vsync which is nonsensical. (source: gaming for over a decade now...)
There are people reporting lots of problems with that game, and others reporting that it is working fine.
Here's some quotes that are useful... Many people say it doesnt work with wayland. That's typical...we want to use X11 as the display server for gaming anyways. Make sure you're using x11 as the display server...
Proton is mainly a customized wine package that steam makes... and the latest proton 9 (beta) based on wine 9 is very good.
You might also try using the latest nvidia driver from nvidia's website which will install and run on your machine without issues, but on bookworm can have some conflicts with debians packaging scheme. So if you get the latest 550 driver, you'll find apt complaining that you have packages that conflict with what it wants to use...
It's also reported on github updating the graphics driver fixes the problem..

It's given the "native" status which means that is has native support for linux, but people are also reporting problems with it, since recent updates. We can also try playing the non-native client with wine-proton to get it to work....Native version can be started and played straight after being downloaded, no tweaks necessary.

Online components work without any issues.

Looks like this game has a lot of bad information surrounding it...it's going to take some testing to get the right settings/packages for good performance ; DEither the several patches released since yesterday, or the updated Nvidia driver fixed it for me as well.
Issue is fixed for me after upgrading to Nvidia driver 535
For Ubuntu:
sudo ubuntu-drivers install nvidia:535
