Well, if the check is server side, they could just enable a flag server side for specific Square Enix Accounts that says "yeah, this character is allowed run underneath the map at 500% speed, this is gucci."
And if that flag is set on an account basis, any account that does the same thing without that flag could get tagged for investigation. Automatically. Its a much more elegant solution than trashing customer computers with a useless anticheat application.
