EAC support not being easy lessened my excitement, but with BattlEye being effortless my excitement has been renewed. What makes Switch and Deck different? For Switch they have to develop natively, but with Deck their games already run with Proton. If Deck sells less than half of that, say 700K, devs will see a growing market for it. Nintendo Switch, according to a report, sold 2.4M worldwide in it's first month. Enabling EAC is probably not difficult, and devs and companies are simply waiting for sales. With devs who use EAC I think they need convincing, so they are probably waiting for Deck release. BattlEye being so easy to enable for devs will result in many games being it enabled. It seems clear the event is there to help and motivate devs to come on board, optimize their games and enable anti cheat. If we get any more info, we'll let you know. When sending over a message to Bohemia mentioning Linux, Proton and the Steam Deck while referencing the new information on how easy it should be to turn on BattlEye support, they replied to say: "Hi there, we're not able to confirm support for it yet, but it's something we're looking into." - which is much more positive than the previous answer. Given that, perhaps the situation might be different for games that use BattlEye and so we decided to find out. So recently a user asked Bohemia Interactive about DayZ ( Reddit), and the reply at the time was that it would be "unlikely".Īs we found out recently for BattlEye though, developers just need to send off a message to have Proton support for Linux and the Steam Deck just turned on which ARK and Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord have done already. With BattleEye previously mentioning what sounded like the same.
NONE BATTLEEYE ARMA 3 SERVERS UPGRADE
The problem there remains that with Easy Anti-Cheat developers need to upgrade their SDK, then of course it all needs ensuring it works correctly.
NONE BATTLEEYE ARMA 3 SERVERS WINDOWS
It's a little different to support native Linux builds of games, as developers would use the native Linux versions of anti-cheat but for games that don't support Linux like that, they will rely on the Steam Play Proton compatibility layer to run the Windows version. While there has been improvements, it's still not an ideal situation but at least one more developer is looking into it with Bohemia Interactive for DayZ.
