That’s why they specified online, because the cancer that is Easy-Anti Cheat has a teeny tiny checkbox saying “allow linux users” that is rarely if ever checked.

dunno, if we’re talking about easy anti-cheat, i’ve played insurgency: sandstorm, war thunder and hunt: showdown. Not a lot of games, but none of them had any issues

Halo MCC was fixed too and now that works without issues online. It is good fun.

Plenty of games do check it! Which is why it’s excessively frustrating when other games consciously choose not to. There were a few hiccups initially but now as far as I’m aware it’s literally just the checkbox.

I really hate this "it’s just a checkbox* narrative. It’s bullshit. EAC functions very differently on Linux and it is ridiculous to assume that “it says EAC is on” = “game is secure”
