This is so funny because rust has one of the worst cheating situations and majority of their players are windows users, and theres lots of games that have anticheat that allows linux and have notably less significant cheating problems like marvel rivals. in reality rust doesn't take cheating very seriously because if they did they would have more server side software that detects illegitimate behaviour like tons of other games do successfully...... even most popular Minecraft servers have better functioning anti cheat that is completely server side than rust has while getting kernel access to your pc. its pathetic and lazy development tbh and this entire post from them reads like such extreme cope....

Every extra cheater is a bad thing.

Do you think a player would care they only make up x% of the playerbase when they get insta killed through walls and lose all their resources by someone in god mode?

No, they wouldn't care. It's a mild annoyance at worst. Nothing critical was lost. Maybe stop putting money into digital goods that have no tangible value and zero guarantee of property.

Of course any one cheater is bad. But this is a massively successful game studio complaining about cheating when they admit to not putting any resources towards creating a team to combat cheating.
