That's disgusting! Where do those criminals gather, so I could go an express my utter disappointment to them directly?

Sounds like it's working

I'm not going to condone this, but also.... haha.

The most confusing part about this is that people are still playing GTA Online. Why...?

Good.

I really hope they don't find a way to blame the linux community for this. Even if we hate kernel level anti cheat, I think most of us were happy with the refund from Valve lol

I'm conflicted here

On one hand, I play GTA Online, and the amount of hackers is getting out of hand. Most are chill, some are extremely annoying and blow up everyone in the lobby with 800 million explosions a second. In this case, I'm annoyed that I can't play it and glad there's anti cheat.

On the other hand, I didn't realize that BattlEye would prevent Linux users from playing entirely. I'm not a Linux user (yet) myself, but that really sucks. Also, rockstar is extremely predatory with the shark cards (it was worse with Red Dead Online!) so they do kinda deserve it as some form of karma for being terrible

Edit: EAC -> BattlEye

I don't play these games or really any game that needs anti cheat. What's the controversy? I assume the anti cheat is awful?

Iam out of the loop. What kind of cheats are available in gta online? Edit: or what was available.

At least you can turn it off in singleplayer and still use your mods there. That's a pretty important consideration imho.

How do those community servers for RP work? Do they require mods? Do they still work?

As it should be. Rockstar Games deserves nothing less.
