Epics anti cheat doesn't even work. flocks of kids get actual aim bots that epic can't deal with. CSGO anti cheat is yet to be matched in quality because it relies on players and statistics. It turns out that you can't control client software and hardware. Good competitive cheaters use hardware aim assist. Any software you make will be modified. The only way to stop cheaters is math, and people.

- raydev 5y agoIn competitive Fortnite it seems like Epic is quick to permaban cheaters. Personally, in the last year of playing, I'm not sure I've run into more than a couple obvious aimbotters. But I guess Epic has games besides Fortnite.
- devwastaken 5y agoAimbots are a form of obvious cheat. If anti cheat worked, they wouldn't be possible. The movement of the player input and accuracy is mathematically obvious. The problem is anti cheats aren't designed to prevent cheating, they're designed to sell a product that non programmers want to buy. Same as DRM. Somewhere down the list is actually having the anti cheat work, it's not the main goal.
- anonymousab 5y ago> The only way to stop cheaters is math, and people. People are plenty enough. Let them run their own servers with robust moderation tools and custom software and then the community can deal with cheaters effectively. And false positives can simply find another server, since availability in a popular game will be higher than developer provided servers. Over a decade of locking online gameplay even further behind developer and publisher control has been one of the greatest boons for cheaters.
