Is BattleEye supported on linux? Id like to switch but remember people saying support for BE is not that great, and im mostly arma and dayz player...

the ones I've tried yes, it depends on the developers, for example Fortnite is not supported on Linux because they deliberately made it incompatible.

Doesn't Fortnite use EAC instead?

Also apex legends and Rust use it, EAC it's not the reason.

P1: "They are using malware anti-cheat that does not support Linux"

P2: "No, they choose to not support Linux"

Me: "Aren't they use anti-cheat that do support Linux?"

P2: "It's not the reason"
