Two anti-cheat tools, TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot, will be required to play the new COD.
Saved you a click, if you didn’t already guess. I’m not sure how they’d be using the TPM, but there’s no reason you shouldn’t already have it enabled. Secureboot has debatable value, but if you’re on Windows having it enabled doesn’t hurt anything either.
But that enables their anti-cheat to run at kernel level, and that is a large vulnerability.
Secure Boot and TPM were always about DRM. This is worse than Denuvo and we should not be okay with it.
Yeah I’m not going to do that
How 'bout no, Scott.

Oh, yes, the famous anti-cheat Secure Boot it’s an hero in the community.
It’s all been downhill since Modern Warfare. COD 3 in 2006 was when it peaked for me back before screaming children and online unlocks.
Yeah. Maybe if it drops under $20 and has a positive Steam Customer rating, I would consider it.
But not if I have to change my Bios just to play it. Most gamers won’t even understand how to turn on those security features.

Secure Boot and TPM 2.0 are usually enabled by default. At least they have been in every build I’ve done or helped with in the last several years. I’m pretty sure Windows 11 requires both anyway, and that’s going to be the majority of users.
As much as people complain about these things on places like Lemmy, the reality is most people don’t care much if at all.
It’s not like this is going to stop hackers.
Nah no thanks.
I won’t turn on tpm, need to avoid the ninja update to windows 11, you know how they like to do even without consent. I’ll be going to Linux next month thanks.
