It's a funny response but it also makes me sad that this game is already being infested with cheaters.

That's sorta a given for games in alpha. It would be weird to code an extreme anti cheat when you don't have any of the gameplay systems even set in stone and tons of things can still change. A basic one works fine for now.

There is no functional anti cheat system. Its an inherently unsolveable problem as long as there are private computers that are not under full company/state surveillance. This is what consoles try to be but those suck ass.

There's no inexpensive functional anticheat system ftfy

Explain. Throwing money at an unfixable problem doesnt magically make it fixable. Any conceivable piece of anticheat software or hardware can be circumvented as long as it is running clientside.

Even if you fully controlled the computer running the game, there are already external cheat system that use the video output to give you aimlock by taking control over the input devices.

You don't run it clientside
