This is so funny because rust has one of the worst cheating situations and majority of their players are windows users, and theres lots of games that have anticheat that allows linux and have notably less significant cheating problems like marvel rivals. in reality rust doesn’t take cheating very seriously because if they did they would have more server side software that detects illegitimate behaviour like tons of other games do successfully… even most popular Minecraft servers have better functioning anti cheat that is completely server side than rust has while getting kernel access to your pc. its pathetic and lazy development tbh and this entire post from them reads like such extreme cope…
I mean as a electrical engineering student who likes to program, building such a system seems like fun but playing with it not so much. If there was a game that was purly made for cheaters with the goal of beating the anticheat without detection i would love to try that. I feel like this could be something like the capture the flag competitions some groups make where you have to hack a website faster than others or break some encryption.
Desstroying other players without effirt is like playing a game in easy mode and i dont get that at all, where is the fun if there is no challenge?
