I work on one of the games mentioned in this article and you're underestimating cheaters and cheat developers. We're doing this already and we're one of the smaller studios, so the larger studios are for sure doing it on a larger scale. Cheaters are still managing.
Love the 'why don't devs just do x, its so simple' like all other devs are some monkeys just banging their keyboard.
To be fair, I did couch my post right in the first sentence. I wasn’t faulting other devs with it though, not keeping an anti-cheat team or if one exists, not keeping it flush with top notch talent and resources would be the fault of management and the suits at the top, not that of ICs in the trenches like devs.
