This always screams of a person that thinks their views are the default views of reality. Really shows how self centered he is.

Then I have 'no plans' on ever giving them money for their shitty designed game
Oh, this is about that shitty survival game‽ I thought it was talking about the rust language. I was so very confused.
Games that have no plans for Linux are not serious about gamers.
Well, I for one am serious about anti-cheat: if the company making the game makes it more important than the game itself, I make game not important for me
It's interesting how gamers are supposed to have a problem with people cheating in a video game, but not with their computer being compromised by bad actors.
True and usually hackers find a workaround.
I remember previous outbursts from facepunch. This has nothing to do with anti-cheat, they have been staunchly anti linux for some time now. They have floated the idea of removing linux support for garrys mod for years.
I bet there's some kind of kickback from Microsoft involved here. Maybe indirectly. Because the only reason I still have a Windows PC (just one left) is to play Fortnite with my kiddo. Every other PC and tablet is running Linux since October.
Unsurprising, Facepunch were hostile in the past to the idea, temporarily played around with the idea, and always will be ambivalent. Given the direction that Windows is heading, it would be a time to consider cultivating fans on different operating systems. As Microsoft is messing up in a huge way these days.
Let me tell you, the average Rust player doesnt care and Facepunch know it.
Without a doubt, as long as these players get their Rust fix, they couldn't care less about Linux or the state of Windows.
If ring-0 access is the only way you can stop cheaters, your game must be poorly programmed.
Reminds me that DRM used to run Kernel Side until software side drm was the safest/less sketchy option.
The irony of it all is the best cheats of which I won't discuss bypass all anticheat including theirs. Their concern is only for the low hanging fruit for appearance only.
Can't have Rust on Linux? Just do it in C/C++!
Let's use SDL3 + Rust and make the game Rust in The programming language Rust.
;)
Oh no, where will I go now to have 12 year olds tell me to kill myself while shouting racial slurs at my base.
Oh no! Anyway.
Those who don't support them are not serious about software quality.
If they're so confident about that stance they should remove their games from Valve's services.
Thank you for your insight, Nude Bullying Simulator dev. Obviously you know about serious subjects.
Seems I correctly assessed that game as sketchy bullshit
Rust is a toxic shit hole. Wasn't going to bother anyways but now I'm REALLY not going to bother with it
Rust is still a thing?
I remember there was a script(server side) that disables EAC for Linux/proton and enables it for Windows, for some reason scripting is done in C# (native language). (BTW I never played rust but learned this from a friend)
Rust isn't serious about anti cheat though...
