At this rate, no EA game would be playable on Linux. They are adding kernel anticheat and blocking Linux players to most multiplayer EA titles, even old ones. They are literally robbing us money.

But thanks for the tool recommendation.

Microsoft is gonna close off access to their NT kernel, eventually. When that happenes all anticheat will have to be in userspace. I'd imagine at that point all of those games become Linux compatible.

My guess is that Microsoft will provide their own kernel level anticheat to game developers, using a secure API which will be impossible to emulate with Wine etc.
