Helldivers 2 swaps GameGuard for Easy Anti-Cheat

Arrowhead is replacing GameGuard with Easy Anti-Cheat in Helldivers 2, admitting the previous solution "wasn't as effective as it could have been." The studio is cracking down on cheat mods, so some cosmetic mods may stop working until their creators update them.

• GameGuard called ineffective; EAC switch happens on October 20
• EAC is used in over 200 games, including Fortnite and Rust
• Mods affecting other players may stop functioning
• Some cosmetic mods may need updates from their creators
