All of this anticheat bs is still making the baseline assumption that the problem needs to be solved at the expense of the players.
It’s illegal to steal someone else’s property. We don’t enforce that law by cutting off everyone’s hands preemptively so that there is less demand on police to solve a problem that hasn’t happened yet…
If people are assholes and go against the wishes of society, you police and moderate them. If they can’t moderate their platform, that isn’t the fault of the community - it’s a failing of the corporation. It’s such a ridiculous mindset. It’s a fucking video game…
You deserve an upvote from everyone and anyone whomst has ever played a video game online
Block EA on your steam page and avoid all this bullshit.
Can you fully block a publisher? I’m sick of seeing Activision and EA games up there so it’d be great if you can.
Steam allows you to
ignorepublishers.-
Go to the steam store page for publisher.

There was a time when my steam friend preasured me to get Apex Legends, but I refused because of piece of shit EA. Seems I made a right choice.
But then again nobody plays that anymore, so nothing gained, nothing lost.
EA fucked us out of a TitanFall 3. And a 3rd Alice from American McGee

What a shame, my kid plays this on our Linux pc, he’s gonna be devastated.
That sucks.
Apex was the game I played with my friends to keep in touch long distance. Guess I gotta find something new now. Sure as he’ll ain’t installing Win11 for it.
I guess it’s been a long time coming. The dev decisions and priorities the last few years have really made it feel like I’m the last person they want playing their game.
Deep Rock Galactic?
If you are looking for a semi competitive shooter, I’d highly recommend The Finals. Tons of fun and solid gun play. Game isn’t officially supported but runs great on linux.
Let me guess without reading: kernel-level anti-cheat?
Nope. They had anti cheat that supported it, but they experienced higher issues with cheating via linux than elsewhere. Which sucks. People who cheat suck.
I’m curious to see how Valve will respond to this seeing as they have CS. I imagine they’d be interested to build a solution but I’m not sure how plausible that even is.
I never understand why when this happens the solution is always “cut off everyone” instead of placing Linux players in a lower trust lobby
That would just cause legit Linux players to generate negativity by always being stuck with cheaters. It’s way easier to just remove support if it really is most of your cheating problems for such a small player base.
Linux users are starting to sound like a bunch of entitled dicks. /s
It’s EAC, which is kernel level on Windows but not on Linux. I guess they wanted to go full kernel-level anti-cheat.
It’s using EAC which supports Linux.
eh, i switched to the finals.
apex matchmaking is trash and i hope it dies.
W take, The Finals is the best!
Man I’ve not heard about the finals in a while. I remember I played it every day for two week straight and got everything for my class. Is it better now than at launch?
i believe so. they added stuff, the core gameplay is the same.
its fun
Oh no! Anyways…
Ok, we kinda don’t give a shit about that toxic dead game.
It is still a loss for linux gamers.
Technically yes but a rather insignificant one. Fuck them.
I think apex legends is still one of the highest concurrent player games on Steam. I think top is like csgo, apex legends, rust, maybe deadlock? I haven’t been online in a while but this is probably how it is based the last time I checked.
Wouldn’t put it on my deck if it printed me a 5 dollar bill every day.
Nor on my cell phone.
