I’m not entirely which patch caused this issue as the last time I played online was at launch. Since then I’ve been playing full offline.
Today I tried to start the game but it fails. The Loading screen appears and locks the PC until it finally crashes the game back to Steam.
From the Player.log I see:

The game still works without issue in full offline mode.
Curiously, there seems to be many errors in the log when attempting to enter online that just don’t exist with full offline.

Edit: I should add:
Native Linux edition
openSUSE Tumbleweed
Edit 2:
Looking at this more closely, it seems to be Steam related. Unfortunately, the dump files created are obfuscated so useless to me.
I’ve checked some other games I have on steam but I haven’t found any issues. However, the only other online games I have use Proton as they’re not native.
It’s odd to me that the game runs correctly when in full offline mode but crashes hard otherwise.
Edit 3:
I’ve just found someone else with the same issue on Ubuntu, so it’s not distro specific
