PC games are fighting a new surge of cheaters and hackers
New surge of bad programmers is a more apt title, or &quot;We gave game clients absolute control and you wont believe what happened next!!1&quot;. Pretty much all the games listed have ZERO server side validation. As I commented under previous Valorant anti cheat backdoor story:<p>&#x27;what is actually crazy are modern game servers lacking even the most basic server side assertion logic(1) letting players FLY around the map, teleport, summon items, kill other players on the server at the press of a button, etc. Seen in all massive FPS games, for example Apex Legends, PUBG, Escape from Tarkov.&#x27;
