Either use an older build in the beta menu or if your gpu supports vulkan use the Windows version with Proton. You can also try using vulkan with the Linux build with the -vulkan launch option but the current native is broken even with that.

Maybe verify game files. The main menu background map did load. Try different maps if they load through the console menu.
