I’ve been no-lifing the game since launch and have yet to see any hackers…
It’s odd that I’ve only seen complaints about there being hackers in the game in the context of the anti-cheat. Nobody that I’ve played with or any of the people in my games have complained about hackers, yet every conversation involving the TPM/ secure boot bullshit (which I agree is ridiculous and invasive) involves multiple claims of hackers.
I almost begin to wonder if anecdotal experiences are being fabricated to push a narrative, but then I remember it’s impossible to lie on the internet.
Maybe anecdotal evidence from any single person isn’t enough to go on either way, but the topic at hand that video games need access to secure encryption hardware to run probably isn’t super cool should be the discussion
Why am I not surprised. More of Microsoft trying to enforce this bullshit now that they own CoD.
EA does the same thing with Battlefield 6. It’s for the anti-cheat.
Secure boot. TPM2.0. And a kernel level anticheat on top.
Yet, still hackers in game.

While I agree people’s experiences vary wildly, there’s plenty recorded gameplay video that shows it happening.
That aside, they can take their invasive measures and shove it up their cloud where it can and should operate, not on my goddamn machine.
Havent experienced a single hacker in BF6 and ive played since launch. Maybe you’re mistaking skilled players for cheaters?
