Isn’t this a co-op game? Why do they need anti-cheat that badly they couldn’t at least go for a usermode one?
Gotta protect their micro transactions. Can’t have players “cheating” with texture mods.
The anti cheat is a nightmare for all players
They should fix these headlines:
“Helldivers 2 installs rootkit malware”
Stop soft balling it. Literally every game that goes near the kernel should get this headline spread far and wide.
The anti-cheat is the key reason myself and local multiplayer group arnt buying it. Even though most of them are on windows.
I don’t even use a Steam Deck but I won’t get Helldivers 2 because of that kernel-level bullshit. I was so hyped for this game, and now it’s just a full no-go for me, and I’m pissed about it.
“Destiny 2 has entered the chat.”
The malware works better than the game in that case.
Oh no scarewee nightmare
The game must be inconsistent, as I had 1 crash when attempting to join a friends lobby through the in game menu and a steam invite at the same time, but nothing else after. I didn’t have to adjust settings in Steam. Game just worked with no questions. Running Pop OS with a 4080. Runs fantastically.
I was honestly surprised I didn’t have to adjust anything after reading some complaints online.
