ABOUT THE NEW ANTI CHEAT SYSTEM [DEV HERE]

[edU.Verz [Brainwash Gang]]

Hey all!

We implemented an anti-cheat named Easy Anti-Cheat. We tried to be not very invasive but if you have any kind of problem or feedback about this set your thoughs here please!

This is a feature that players have been asking for since the launch and it took a bit so hopefully this will improve the whole experience.

Thanks for your patience and i hope nothing blows up!

I see players clearly locked onto other players in 2v2, is this the aim assist, or hacking?

It could be the aim assist, but if you see something weird just report the users please (pleaseeee)

just gonna try on linux see how it goes dev

Edit just tried game ran fine but anti cheat was not enabled hope this helps

FYI on linux if you try to launch a game with easy anti cheat it will simply not work but due to the guys at steam working their magic you can download a program within steam called easy anticheat runtime solving the problem :)

Friends vs Friends runs fine without the easy anti cheat runtime being installed so the anti cheat is not enabled on linux hope this makes sense

Good on you for trying, but Easy Anti-cheat is pretty trash... its what hunt showdown uses and that game is completely infested by cheaters... thats why its nickname is Easy-Cheat... since its like trying to block a bullet with crepe paper.

Yeah but there should be a balance between being super invasive and functional. So this is not set in stone and we will keep working on it for a while.

People have been claiming for this and also the reporting system is still there so until we get something that makes "everyone" happy we will be using these two things.

while its appreciated to take invasiveness into account, the truth is, the only way an anti-cheat has any hopes to be any sort of functional, is to be invasive... ones that aren't are just there to make people *feel* better... or to re-assure children. I'm not trying to be a jerk, just realistic.

i really wanted to try the game over the free weekend. easy anti cheat HATES my pc for some reason so any game that has it gives me the same error going on about some .dll that isnt actually broken. super disappointing i can play ;-;

[Voluptuous Yeet of Trash]

So far I've had no issues with EAC. Also great job with FvF, keep up the awesome work!

Easy anti cheat not installed troubleshooted and kept trying and trying to get it to work just to get an error message every time I try to run the game incredibly disappointing and frustrating

The game just doesn't start, no matter how much I tried, and when there was no EAC, everything was just fine

Maybe you could try what this video does:

You need to reconsider.
EAC is hard on weak systems in terms of loading times and is harsh on users that have unusual Windows setups where it will crash the game with vague error messages that are of no help.

this broke my game from launching please fix it!!!!

like at this point I should just refund the game because I can't play it through steam at all.
