So does this game actually have anticheat?

[The Monkey]

I only just started playing PvP and I've already encountered a cheater, this anticheat is a joke.

[Maou]

Yes, it has Easy Anti Cheat, and yes, it is a joke.

Easy anticheat, so called because it's super easy to bypass.

I hear tell that the game uses the free version of it too.

It no longer makes any difference which anticheat is used. The battle against hackers and cheaters is lost. Before, a few nerds did it in the basement to troll. But now cheating is a multi-million business.

games with EAC:

elden ring - cheaters within week 1
sniper elite 5 - cheaters within 3 days, problem got so severe the devs added votekicking
spacemarine 2 - cheaters before the game officially launched (around 2 days after early access launch)

conclusion: EAC stands for Everyone's Allowed Cheats

[Todokoro]

why is nobody talking about this?

[FlynnTheFearless]

Because devs feel they can get away with doing nothing by saying there's an 'anti cheat' already in game.

EAC isnt there to prevent cheating. It's there to prevent players the use of mods that enhance the experience since a lot of devs suck at their jobs.

I call it the nintendo syndrome. "Our code, our rules, dont dare to think about having a better experience with our game"

Its too late, people are already using bypasses to use things like trainers and memory editors. starting to look like spacehulk deathwing all over again.

Yes and the average joe just wanting some more fov gets banned in the instant they use the tool.

I think they're already working on ultrawide, but it would be nice to have a native fov slider.

anyway, I'm just going to keep bumping this thread until either more people see it or a community manager/moderator chimes in. I really hope Saber Interactive sees the thread and does something about the game

Game has been out officially for less than 1 week and the game is already plagued by cheaters. (the topic needs more bumps)

[CptnSpandex]

Yeah commonly known as Easily Bypassed Anti-Cheat or Easy Anti Garbage because it is client side not server so cheaters just delete it and cheat to high hell.

Cheaters existed before the game even officially released. I remember people with infinte grenades and such in the early access period.
