I too recall having issues with the anti-cheat last I tried (years ago at this point).

How did those issues get fixed? Did they abandon the anti cheat, or does the anti cheat now work under proton?





Rocket League never had issues with anti-cheat. I have been actively playing it since before they stopped shipping a native version.

What? They use Easy Anti Cheat, which is one of those nasty kernel level anti cheats. Even ignoring my personal experience with the issue, a kernel level anti cheat built for windows seems quite unlikely to not have any issues whatsoever on Linux...

Do you only play offline or something?


Rocket League literally has a platinum status on ProtonDB[0]. It works perfectly on Steam using Proton if you have it there, or Heroic[1] if you have it through EGL.

Rocket League has literally never been unable to run on GNU/Linux. The full game. Multiplayer, Steam workshop, everything.

I suspect you may be thinking of a different game honestly. Maybe League of Legends? I think they switched to an invasive anti cheat a few years ago that caused it to no longer work on GNU/Linux.
