Please explain why the devs care about cheating.
Seriously - what harm does it do to them?
It's a multiplayer game. Cheaters ruin other peoples' fun. Why is that difficult to infer on your own?
People don't buy games overflowing with cheaters.
You would think that but people keep buying tarkov...
rust is a game commonly overrun with hackers who hack to grief other players, as its inherently a pvp survival game that takes a while to build up
Not enough for them to ever come close to impimenting enough checks server-side, or take competitive or transactional multiplayer cloud-only, but also magically enough for them to demand the ability to install back-doors and malware on our PC's.
It's just magical like that yo, they ain't gotta explain shit. How dare you ask for answers or for them to respect your privacy, cheater?
