Preach. I got a free EA game from the epic store once. Even at that price point, it was not worth what I paid. Literally, there’s so much better shit I can fit in 100GB that even at 0$ that’s a bad investment
How invasive do you have to be to ask your users to install a Kernel driver just for a stupid anti cheat that will still get bypassed within a week.. like... I only see negative points with this. Cheaters still exist on Valorant and they won't go away any time soon. Even if one day they ask you to change your CPU to an anti cheat approved one, it will still get bypassed.
These Kernel anti cheats are useless because they run on the client side. As a developer, anything that doesn't run on your computers is out of your control.
Which raises the point, why don't they just improve their server side cheat detection? Something like sending the mouse movement data + accuracy etc. in between each round and scan it. If it comes out positive then have the community review the footage. CSGO does this very well IMO. Especially since now we have AI and people have made pretty good cheat analysis models for server side anti cheats

Because anti-cheat isn't the point. They're trying to get you used to installing invasive spyware on your machine in exchange for a little temporary Privelege.
AAA just means the publisher is a mid sized or major publisher. Which means literally nothing in today's time.
Look at 90% of all 'AAA' games today and compare it with eg. Minecraft, which is basically an Indie game. Which is better? Of course, back in 2000 AAA games were good, look at HL and later HL 2, Portal etc. Could be just Valve tho.
They have a lot of broken crap in my library right now. Mass Effect: Andromeda being the most annoying one for right now as the multiplayer in that game seems to be region locked and it's almost impossible to find a match. That's if the ea desktop shit is even working that day.
EA anti-cheat sucks and is useless. One look at the KDR or literally impossible hit % rates at the top of the stats board is proof enough. They just don’t care.
This article is just bad bullshit. EE does not care about cheating more than sales, has never done. They literally let cheaters do what they want on official servers, then let players ruin their own servers to fix it. Had always been this. Every ea game.
