Ok, I wasn’t gonna play that anyway, I prefer games that don’t incentivize cheating.

Since rust, the game, was launched one year after rust, the language, can we get the rust foundation to sue them for shits and giggles?

15 years ago, any developer who wanted to install low-level malware on your system would have been rightfully laughed out of the room.

It really shows how tech illiterate the modern user is.

The last “serious about anticheat” game was hacked on release day. On Windows. With kernel-level AC.

Fuck off with your lies.

If you can’t play a specific game on linux due to anti-cheat and you still have to encounter cheaters on windows - is this a linux problem somehow?

If I need spyware to ensure I’m playing a game right, that’s a game I don’t need.

I mean if you run on an operating system, you’re not really serious about anti cheat. You should require all of your players to buy your own hardware that is sealed in a titanium box. They should have to give a blood sample before each session, and they should have to be completely surrounded by webcams the entire time. Better yet, have them report to their nearest prison’s solitary confinement wing for a 100% monitored play session.

Let’s get actually serious about anti cheat.

If the game Rust is what is keeping you away from being on Linux it might be best you never go to Linux. Just save us all the future headache, thanks.

… Rust still exists? As in, the murder-hobo-survival game that was early access like, 10-15 years ago?

I thought they were talking about the programming language.

It is very different from the Early Access times. At some point they have rebuilt the whole game from ground up. Still is a murder-hobo-survival but is much more fun, nicer looking, better optimized and higher-skill-based game.

That is still absolutely loaded to the gills with cheaters. DNSL has a whole series of videos where he trolls people on the server using cheats. 😂

It’s been polished a lot since then (they update every month), but yeah, it’s still around and it’s fun. Sucks that Alistair has this take tho.

Dude should ask Linux players how they can actually play games with EAC and Battleye if that box is turned on, then they’ll realize that none of the cheaters use Linux (if any at all). Most, if not all of them, use Windows with specialized scripts.

Why hasn’t the amazing economy propelling AI industry fixed cheating yet?

My suspicion says that Valve use AI in VAC these days. I have no proof of anything but in my opinion it would be the smart thing to do. And something major happened in TF2 a few months ago where they finally managed to ban the rampant bot cheaters. Could be AI or it could just be Valve finally taking the problem seriously.
