#CallOfDuty Has New Security Measures, Adding Secure-Boot Requirement
Ich bin bei #battlefield 6 schon raus, weil ich nicht einsehe, mir extra #Windows zu installieren, nur um es spielen zu können. Dann sollen die den #AntiCheat gut mit den vom #Kernel bereitgestellten Sicherheitsfeatures integrieren und dann gibt es auch keine Probleme. Eine Zusammenarbeit mit #Valve wäre hier immer möglich gewesen.
At least EA is being honest about it.
"Sicherer Start ermöglicht es, von EA Javelin Anticheat unterstützte Spiele zu erkennen und zu entfernen..."
Translation: "Secure Boot makes it possible to detect and remove games supporting EA Javelin Anticheat."

Edit: Added screenshot for posterity.
#EA has confirmed that #Battlefield 6 will be completely unplayable on #Linux systems, including #SteamDeck, due to its new kernel-level anti-cheat system, “EA Javelin,” which explicitly blocks Linux. This move is a slap in the face to the growing #Linuxgaming community, especially considering how far compatibility has come with #Proton and #SteamOS.
Worse yet, EA is using open-source tech like the #GodotEngine in parts of the game, while denying access to the very platforms that champion #opensource. It’s hypocritical and #anticonsumer.
There’s no option to disable #anticheat for #singleplayer or #privateservers, meaning users who value #privacy or #freedom of platform are locked out entirely.
It's a hostile decision rooted in control, not security.
