Rockstar just rolled out a new security update for GTA Online, introducing Battleye anti-cheat software. This update tightens security on PC, making it harder for cheaters to thrive while still allowing single-player mods. With the 11th anniversary of GTA 5 and speculation about GTA 6’s development, this update has sparked debates about its effectiveness and the future of modding. Whether this marks the end of free mod menus or just a short pause, the GTA community is buzzing with reactions.

Battleye? Really, this means Steamdeck is shafted and won't be able to play online.
Edit, yeah GTA online is unavailable for SteamDeck, because Battle eyeblind won't run on linux and that is what Steamdeck is. Oh well, off to the refund claims all the SteamDeck GTAOnline players go. They could have chosen anything else. Yeah they better work on "fixing" linux fast or those refund claims will go through.
Escape from tarkov has battleye and its bad hackers everywhere
Yeah no putting this anti-cheat in is like putting a bandage over a big, gaping wound. Not gonna do a whole lot, people will find a way around it.
It's pretty useless. Public lobbies are still full of modders, and most of them seem to have something wrong with their heads. Just like before, I won't join public lobbies anymore. I'll only play in private sessions with friends, or I might choose to play on the PS5, or just stop playing this game and switch to other games. My interest in this game has reached its limit.
These bastards should be gone for good, not for a while!
Funny part …. its already bypassed 😂
I mean I got leveled up to the 50th level in the first day there still here
Great how MMI just failed to understand 2 words "for now" which means the creator of the menu doesn't know himself if he wants to continue or not…
3:25 yes sounds like cs:go "New anti cheat" got bypassed in 1 day and 3 hours after they put it in the game.
Also spoofing your HWID is 5 seconds to do with today tools available on the internet.
I believe they just put battle eye just to shut up people tbh, or they want to have battle eye because they want to program their own AC for gta 6? Wild guesses but we will see when gta 6 will be released for PC
After couple hours some people have found a way around BattleEye and they are now cheating in GTA Online. BattleEye is on of the worst anti cheats on the Market. Better than having non, but still the worst one.
In the last 7Days a have seen so many Modder.
So the Anticheat is still trash.
just scan the files if there's a cheat…..permenat BAD LOBBIES for that player.
Easy anti cheat is better
Even if gta online 2 releases, i'm playing both online 1 and 2, why not?
Players have gone overboard with mod menus and also hackers to make the game unplayable, so what had to happen happened. Rockstar installed Battleye in GTA5 online to make the game playable. On the internet I counted a minimum of 50 free and paid mod menus, real madness, so with the gigantic reports that Rockstar received because of these mod menus that were rotting the game, they decided to put an end to all this madness by installing Battleye anti-cheat. A lot of work to bypass this anti-cheat and if there are any who succeed, it will be a report on this person and a ban ensured by Rockstar.😃👋
Ah yes "anti cheat" that doesnt do much but becomes malware on your PC.
I still have the same old issues with loading and on top of that i get randomly kicktet from the game.I also couldnt play for to day because gta wouldnt want to start. Great update Rockstar.
this is actually a good change since most of the "bad" modders where people with free menus going around and griefing. most of the paid menu users are actually chill and mostly use it for the money options
This update freed up 112 GB on my system, Though i hope that the anti cheat isen't the only good thing coming to GTA5. Im not sure if battleye will do much in the long term. the Linux community as i know is the type of people who loves to tinker around and find bypasses to issues. ill wait and see but for me that is completly fed up by Microsoft, it is against my principle to use any windows version above 10. because if Windows were such a good platform why dosent it have better tools for more advanced users. Linux is that thing it has ways to install everything without the need for a GUI for the example. GTA5 is dead to me. I absolutely refuse having kernel level code running on my system(s) that isn't absolutely necessary for the system security, at least the kernel level i can control or comes as standard.
12:06 E&E on PC and Red Dead Redemption on PC are the missing points for GTA+ on PC – that's what I guess.
But release of GTA VI on consoles will change situation again so we will see what's the R* plan on PC.
Quick summary, the specific anti-cheat they are using is next to usless. It's going to make some mod menus especially free ones not work (There are already working free mod menus lmao)
sorry to say you aint safe from modders.
Bro easy anticheat would be better 😭
🤣🤣🤣 Im still modding
yeah, your trustable sources were very wrong lol
certainly an interesting choice after battle eye is the worst kernal anticheat you can have, literally any game that has battle eye as there anticheat has a cheating problem.
i cant play story mode wit mods, rockstar has done it, oh yeah and my rockstar games launcher conviniently doesn't work when battleye is out.
Don't forget that the PC version of GTA 6 is not coming out for another 12-18 months after the console version launches. Even if 6 launches end of next year, PC players won't see it until late 2026 to mid 2027.
I’ve heard some people speculate that GTA VI will be delayed. In my opinion, which is worth little to nothing, it’s likely that GTA VI will be delayed. Just look at their other games: according to Google, GTA IV was delayed once, GTA V was delayed as well, along with both Red Dead Redemption and Red Dead Redemption 2. In fact, RDR2 was delayed three times.

Its sad for me. i used to play online on steam deck.
PS. battleye works on linux but they intentionally made it to not work on deck / linux.
This will not slow down modders, they have a new fun task to do, I give it less than a week.
all this has done, is make the game unplayable for Linux/Steamdeck users.
I think cheating should be criminal, degradation of product, actively cheating makes the game no fun for normal players and ruins the experience, I think cheating can be stopped, but itll take RCW's and potential jail time, I also think developers should be suing the cheaters they find directly.
If modder get issue modding it won't be long when people will attack rockstar servers with rage
Finallllllllllllyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy I subscribe because you never said it’s bad battle eye delete modded players from my game ngl 😂
i find it funny that he says that a way to make money is that make the game good and playable on a platform but there is going to be so many steamdeck and linux users asking for refunds for a game that they have lost access to
@9:20 I tried Windows 11, hated it, reverted to Windows 10, you only have month to revert to Windows 10
i think they are preparing to let gta online go free, i would assume they are adding anti-cheats to have less moderation and prepairing to later have every platform on the same version so they can later focus souly on gta6. i dont think they are adding any cross-platform to gta online
The privacy problem with Kernel level ACs is only a small piece. The bigger piece is potentially broken, untested code bricking your computer, Crowdstrike was literally less than a year ago. I'm happy that there is a chance that Microsoft might ban Kernel level ACs in the future.
It bit to late when to add it and has messed up redm
They fucked over the entire Linux player base. BattleEye isn't gonna do shit, and you can just change your fucking HWID with a free program. HWID bans don’t do shit.
Matto you said your happy birthday tweet on my birthday
Bro stream deck players cant play GTA online now so I cant play with my friend now (I have a pc and he has a stream deck)
The problem when kernel level anticheat gets hacked/exploited is that an antivirus cant save you.
Now on next GEN Xbox at least if you disconnect a couple times now suddenly I get told I can’t connect to servers at this time but there are no issues. I tried everything. Sometimes changing from hardwired to Wi-Fi works, but I didn’t lately this last one. If anyone can Colombian what’s going on, please let me know.
my gta 5 online not opening and i'm not hacking or modding plz help me
From my experience battleye has done nothing for siege but then again Ubisoft did turn battleye off for multiple months
Hell i wouldn't be suprised if it's still off
