#DENUVO ANTI CHEAT PATCH#
The notes for Patch 1.0.4.0 only mention some minor content changes: It remains remains to be seen whether id Software's decision to remove Denuvo Anti-Cheat again in Doom Eternal is permanent.įinal Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age has received a patch today which removes Denuvo, the infamous DRM on this PC port and remaster.

As always, thank you for your passion and commitment to DOOM Eternal. Please stay tuned to the official DOOM Eternal community channels for more on the roll-out of this update. We have reverted this change in our next update and expect the game to perform as it did at launch. I’d like to note that some of these issues were very difficult to reproduce and we want to thank a number of our community members who worked directly with our engineers to identify and help reproduce these issues.įinally, we believe the performance issues some players have experienced on PC are based on a code change we made around VRAM allocation. All of these fixes will be in our next PC update. We were also able to identify and fix a number of other memory-related crashes that should improve overall stability for players. Through our investigation, we discovered and have fixed several crashes in our code related to customizable skins. Many have unfortunately related the performance and stability issues introduced in Update 1 to the introduction of anti-cheat. It’s also worth noting that our decision to remove the anti-cheat software is not based on the quality of the Denuvo Anti-Cheat solution. I have seen speculation online that Bethesda (our parent company and publisher) is forcing these or other decisions on us, and it’s simply untrue. It is important to note that our decision to include anti-cheat was guided by nothing other than the factors and goals I’ve outlined above – all driven by our team at id Software. As we examine any future of anti-cheat in DOOM Eternal, at a minimum we must consider giving campaign-only players the ability to play without anti-cheat software installed, as well as ensure the overall timing of any anti-cheat integration better aligns with player expectations around clear initiatives – like ranked or competitive play – where demand for anti-cheat is far greater. With that, we will be removing the anti-cheat technology from the game in our next PC update. Despite our best intentions, feedback from players has made it clear that we must re-evaluate our approach to anti-cheat integration.
