It's a shame but an overall positive for the community I would say.
Sure, it's a big issue that it breaks compatibility with Linux, but unfortunately it's a quite small userbase that will be affected vs the userbase that will benefit from this.
The ideal world would see the anticheat software developers providing compatibility with Linux, but again, I doubt it's high on the priority list with such a smaller userbase in comparison.
I 100% agree. The game will likely run fine without anticheat and community servers will work that have AC requirements disabled. I definitely don't think we'll ever see a Linux port. They are also planning to move to FACEIT which will be even less Linux-capable.
Same here, I’m holding off on purchasing it until they have strong measures against hackers. Too many games ruined by that group
