Linux users are no users if a game is brimming with cheaters. Who the fuck plays a competitive multiplayer game full of cheaters only because it runs on Linux?
Counterpoint: you could not have TPM and secure boot requirements that needlessly alienates a large player base of Linux users.

Every game has cheaters. If we could run our own servers, we could decide who we play with.

So you’re not asking for Linux support, but custom dedicated server support?

If we had private dedicated servers and the ability to play without anti-cheat, Linux support would be a non-issue. But because we don’t have that, anti-cheat is seen as a necessity, and we don’t have Linux support.

That’s true. My machine doesn’t have a TPM. I understand they are trying to make things easier for their team, but I agree I’d rather have wider support.

I don’t understand this point.
Linux does support TPM and secure boot: wiki.debian.org/SecureBoot#What_is_UEFI_Secure_Bo…
I thought the problem for Linux players was “just” the kernel anticheat ?
