To be honest, I had heard similar things about BattlEye in the past, but since I’m not an online player (and dislike the idea of third-party software scanning my PC for anything without my explicit guidance) I wasn’t ready to point fingers.

It’s also curious how BattlEye is used with stuff like PUBG and Fortnite, where there’s big money involved. So I guess they’re not hopeless, but its effectiveness depends on how the game being monitored is built. An uneducated guess would be that ease of modding also makes the game more vulnerable to cheating by file tampering.
