Not that big of a deal for me. I refuse to buy EA games.
So Say We All!
Unexpected Battlestar Galactica.
So say we all.
If only their single player games were available without their shitty DRM.
Pirates of the Caribbean music intensifies
Oh no! What will I do without EA games?
Oh wait, the same thing I'm currently doing. Not even playing them when they're free on Gamepass.
how will I cope wothout playing the latest shit football game that's the same or. maybe even worse than the one from last year?
Reposting my other comment from another thread:
How invasive do you have to be to ask your users to install a Kernel driver just for a stupid anti cheat that will still get bypassed within a week.. like... I only see negative points with this. Cheaters still exist on Valorant and they won't go away any time soon. Even if one day they ask you to change your CPU to an anti cheat approved one, it will still get bypassed.
These Kernel anti cheats are useless because they run on the client side. As a developer, anything that doesn't run on your computers is out of your control.
Which raises the point, why don't they just improve their server side cheat detection? Something like sending the mouse movement data + accuracy etc. in between each round and scan it. If it comes out positive then have the community review the footage. CSGO does this very well IMO. Especially since now we have AI and people have made pretty good cheat analysis models for server side anti cheats

Because anti-cheat isn't the point. They're trying to get you used to installing invasive spyware on your machine in exchange for a little temporary Privelege.
From my point of view: Bad for EA. No run on Linux or Steam Deck? No purchase.
Bad news for EA.
They’re Evil Arseholes, what’d you expect.
I miss Maxis.
Nothing of value has been lost.
Never been so happy to not care about AAA
AAA just means the publisher is a mid sized or major publisher. Which means literally nothing in today's time.
Look at 90% of all 'AAA' games today and compare it with eg. Minecraft, which is basically an Indie game. Which is better? Of course, back in 2000 AAA games were good, look at HL and later HL 2, Portal etc. Could be just Valve tho.
Fuck EA, I already don't buy their games because of their bullshit launcher. This will keep me not buying their game even more.
They have a lot of broken crap in my library right now. Mass Effect: Andromeda being the most annoying one for right now as the multiplayer in that game seems to be region locked and it's almost impossible to find a match. That's if the ea desktop shit is even working that day.
Oh cool, another DRM on top of Origin to ruin my games
Why can't you be more like Blizzard, EA? (Can't believe I wrote that sentence)
Hahaha, you really think these scam artists are missed?
Oh no! Anyway...
I hope they don't bring it to Titanfall 2
Too much work, for so little gain. I’d expect it if they ever release a Tf3, though.

Is anybody still holding their breath waiting for that? I think Star Citizen will be released before Tf3.
Well, TF|2 just got a flurry of fixes and activity recently, so they seem to be eying the market for potential future titles
It's good that they're fixing stuff, but there might be other reasons for that.
or Apex Legends :/
Well, I never intend on paying for any EA title anyway, so I suppose I don't need to worry about it.
The only EA game I ever enjoyed was NHL 98 on snes. It didn't have anti cheat.
EA anti-cheat sucks and is useless. One look at the KDR or literally impossible hit % rates at the top of the stats board is proof enough. They just don’t care.
Oh yeah, I still have an EA account for whatever reason
This article is just bad bullshit. EE does not care about cheating more than sales, has never done. They literally let cheaters do what they want on official servers, then let players ruin their own servers to fix it. Had always been this. Every ea game.
What about the article is "bullshit"?
