Chloyster [she/her]BattleBit Remastered is dominating Steam because there's no catch: it's just a lot of game for $15
SyperStronkHeroIt's a great game but there IS a catch that wasn't mentioned.
The devs plan on implementing one of the more intrusive Anti-Cheats (Face It Anti Cheat) which doesn't work on Linux which also stops all Steam Deck users from playing. It also forces you to disable virtualization on windows. I can't recall the last time I had to go into bios to disable an option to turn off important windows features.
According to their stream, it's non-negotiable and will be added regardless of what the community wants. But they did mention that community servers would be able to pick which Anti Cheat they wanted to use?
They've backed down from faceit for now because of community concern.
They haven't backed down at all. They're still committed to implementing FaceIt according to the devs in their discord. The only reason it's not implemented now is because of privacy concerns so they're trying to rework it a bit.
