There has been some controversy in the BattleBit community over the fact that they will implement an anti-cheat that may stop Linux users from playing the game.

Luckily, the developers have confirmed that they will use a new version of the FaceIT anticheat that will still allow Linux/Steam Deck users to keep playing. They will be the first game to implement this feature.

Not a fan of kernel level anti cheat

That's fair, I sometimes enjoy valorant but despise their anti-cheat.

Yeah I'm kinda bummed because this is the most fun I've had in matchmaking since Halo 3

As long as its in user space, sb fine. Does this need admin privileges to run?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I'm on windows. It is kernel level on windows. I guess I could run it in a Linux vm though considering how light weight the game is

Think this is the most important question on this issue I don't think it will be just user space.
