This is so funny because rust has one of the worst cheating situations and majority of their players are windows users, and theres lots of games that have anticheat that allows linux and have notably less significant cheating problems like marvel rivals. in reality rust doesn’t take cheating very seriously because if they did they would have more server side software that detects illegitimate behaviour like tons of other games do successfully… even most popular Minecraft servers have better functioning anti cheat that is completely server side than rust has while getting kernel access to your pc. its pathetic and lazy development tbh and this entire post from them reads like such extreme cope…
Yes they are willingly incompetent because kernel anti cheat costs nothing while ML pipelines would cost thousands if not millions usd in compute and engineering every year.
Luckily now with AI boom it brought down many machine learning costs significantly as well so we’ll see much more server side anti cheat.
