Allow mods or remove EAC

[Crimzarkin]

Elden Ring has insane modding potential, maybe even more than SKYRIM. However, EAC keeps getting in the way of the modding scene by banning those who use mods such as fps unlock, Reshade, Mod Armor and weapons etc.

If from really wants this game to thrive they must allow mods to be used online and specially the upcoming seamless coop mod to work. These few mods alone motivate me to keep sticking with the game specially the seamless coop one. Now imagine parkour mods, monster hunter mods, anime character mods etc online with your friends. One of the main reasons I got this on PC was mod support.

However, if from continues using EAC and banning those who use mods online then this game's online might die at a similar pace to DS1.

Mainly because unlike previous games completing ER requires you to put in around 30 hours or more with few side activities involved compared to the 10 or so hours in previous games, which many including I find quite demotivating to go ng+ and access no new content at the cost of all my world progress.

What are your thoughts, should we start a petition or something? lol.

I mean the EaC literally does nothing and people are still cheating so why not. Give me my big titted Ranni mod online!

Based.

agreed. Pretty sure some of the kids i've invaded (for the finger/farm location) have been cheating. Like one had the wall shield and after i hit it for like 10 min he tapped me with it and i was ded....


Most the other invaders either i trolled by teabagginb ground an jumping off...or they was horse located and couldn't kill (after flying sword patch).

There is a solution for everyone.

Add an EAC disabled version, like every game using an anti-cheat except Elden Ring has. Why not just let us opt out?

EAC is trash, always has been. Ive been kicked from only games because EAC decided that Discord is cheating.

ER requires 30 hours. Really. Let's see, I've just gotten to the final boss after 440 hours because I've done EVERYTHING! A lot of mods would be cheating in online games. Online games that allow mods, like ESO, restrict them to minor things that don't affect anyone's game play and don't change any of the games files. I don't think Fromsoft want little twerps putting big tits on Ranni any more than Da Vinci would have appreciated the Mona Lisa being scribbled on by school children who are bored.

I meant ng+ and stuff as you would already know most things. Also 440 hours lol, I completed full game in 120 hours or somethin.

"If from really wants this game to thrive"

They already sold over 12 million copies for a single player focussed game without microtransactions.

The game's development costs are paid over several times. They could clone G.R. Martin with the amount of extra money and make Elden Ring 2. Also, Bamco might have profitted the most of those sales, but that's ok, they paid for development in the first time, and I hope Fromsoft got a nice bonus for such high sales numbers.

Skyrim thrives to this day thanks to mods. Thriving isn't always related to money, I meant community.

Elden Ring will be modded, as all Fromsoft games, but you won't be able to play online modded, like all fromsoft games. You could only use texture mods in previous titles to not get banned.

i would be fine with this EXCEPT there is online pvp so...... no. you allow mods then the game becomes a cheaters (for pvp) paradise. if this was a single player game with coop only then yeah go nuts. but the moment pvp was added that kills mods.

Banned for using ReShade? Has anyone actually been banned for using ReShade? I thought it was safe to use with this game.

It's a shame that the family share "trick" doesn't work anymore.
Like with Dark Souls III I have an alt steam account just to play co-op/pvp mods like Cinders, Convergeance or Champions Ashes, but with the new rules your main account gets banned once your alt gets banned so it completely kills the mood.

I understand it's to get rid of cheaters but this greatly annoys a part of the playerbase who are not willing to buy 2 copies of the same game for online modding...
