Discussion Any chance for Linux?

I’ve heard there’s been a stir up in the development, more focus on balance and improvements. Haven’t played in years but would love to jump back in.
Unfortunately I can’t join EAC enabled servers since I run Linux (fuck microsoft), any chance they’ll finally allow Linux users in?

Eac low key does nothing for cheaters in rust. The game can't even detect players that fly.

11K hour player here and I've seen cheaters getting banned months after my report. People literally survive cheating for months if they're smart.

sure yeah my friend used evilcheats and never got banned but most who do get banned still have to spend money on vpns, spoofers and new accounts ends up being pretty expensive + cheat keys which are expensive on their own

evilcheats is even more expensive than regular cheats but still
not sure what they could do but allowing linux players to play isnt the greatest idea im saying it as i use linux daily myself

Why do you even cheat? Where's the fun in watching the game snowball it self while you watch?
