Today the error appeared in which I got kicked out of a match when trying to load in to character selection screen, the error showed "This client is not running anti-cheat, or has failed the anti-cheat authentication", which resulted in me being put into the lobby and kicked out of the party, upon restarting to game I have also received an abandon penalty. My teammate has informed me that the whole match had less than 50 players in total, so this error must have happened server-wide.
