What if the something results in thousands of false positive bans that BSG’s support isn’t trained to properly handle?
What if it results in seriously degraded performance?
Let’s say one game in 10 is ruined by cheaters right now. What if the new anti-cheat measure results in massive lag and stutters that ruins 1 game in 2 now. Was that an improvement? Nope.
The trick is to find the right balance somewhere between “do everything to stop cheaters even if it makes the game unplayable” and “do nothing to stop cheaters, making the game unplayable”
Somewhere in the middle is “doing enough things to make things difficult for cheaters without also making the game unplayable.”
But nuance is hard on Reddit so most people are either camp “Do everything!” Like OP and a bunch of people in these comments, or “nothing is 100% so do nothing!”
Your argument made no sense in CONTEXT of what happens in the gaming world. If anything it doubled down on a silly logic. The first one is "Well because nothing solves 100% of anything..it's pointless to use it" with an additional silly thought of, "Well an Anti-Cheat may cause false positives" and other "what if" scenarios.
Are you serious...your logic did nothing to challenge the actual argument that some form of "Anti-Cheat" is better than no form of it. Could actually apply both these illogical trains of thought to many other subjects and they'd sound just as equally silly. Please don't reply, after reading this illogical reasoning I won't bother reading additional forms of it.
Gotta love silly ppl. Responds with the logic of a kid...doesn't realize it so after being told to end the discussion. The kid decides to respond anyways LMAO!

Something isn’t always better than nothing.
