    Kernel Level Anti-Cheat For Windows Only. Embark specifically publishes a build for Proton Users validated by Codeweavers. We don’t have to worry about it :)

    This is the same story for The Finals by the way.

      It’s a little funny that all my multiplayer games work fine, and the only ones broken on Proton are mainstream ones I hate.

      It’s like an invisible filter telling me “These devs are jackasses and the playerbase is toxic. Don’t play this.”

          I never suspected it has kernel level anticheat since I’m rocking it for the last 2 days on Bazzite Linux without any hiccups. Great work, Embark!

      Yep. Honestly if someone still uses Windows but complains about kernel level anti-cheat they’re hypocrites and only have themselves to blame. If you want sovereignty as a PC user you have to put in the minimum effort and not just sit on your ass and wait until big corp is spoon feeding it to you. That day won‘t come.

        Its soooo good. I was pleasantly surprised to see he anti cheat work during the server play test. I’ve barely been able to put it down.

        Even if you’re a solo player, it tries to priorize you being with other solos, and generally players are friendly if you express that you are as well.

        Just be careful for the 3 player squads who will say friendly then turn on you when your back is to them.
