For now on, the new standard is to include malware with your games.
Riot has been doing that for over 10 years
>>739367563Explain what any of this means to people who arent twitterfaggots like yourselfContext?
>>739367563>playing western garbage
Just stop cheating, bro.
>>739367563>For now on???
>>739367651His greed sickens me.
>>739367563We really can't murder companies fast enough
>>739367696vanguard is bricking cheaters pc... The lawsuit will be funny
>>739367820>vanguard is bricking cheaters pcLOLwhy is that a bad thing? Just dont cheat lmao
>>739367820baseddoes this mean less jeets in my games?
>>739367898way less chineses i hope
>playing ranked e sport shit in 2026Lol lmao
Small pp Chinese spent $5,000 - $6,000 each to buy hardware specifically to cheat. KWAB.
>>739367563Can't imagine most netcafes will keep riot games on their PCs.They can't guarantee someone won't run a cheat and won't want their hardware destroyed.The ironing will be delicious.
>>739367696people use external hardware for cheating. which can be costly. the anti-cheat can brick those devices.
Ban all twitter threads
>>739367696>install sketchy chinese cheating device to fuck with your computers memory>anticheat triggers on device>effects spill over from cheat device into rest of computer and fucks up the OS install
>>739368324people put this much effort and resources just to cheat in online videogames?do they get anything out of it?
>>739368165Kek and I thought arcade coomlectors were insane paying $1000 for a Chink bootleg
>>739368254Considering this is caused by >>739368165they could just not put those in their computers.
>>739368382Their idea of a victory is not incompatible with cheating if they can get away with it. Anything it takes to win. Bugs gotta bug
>>739368324that seems like a lot of effort just to cheat in a video game
>>739368782There are plenty of rich retards who pay thousands for high level accounts
And these niggers wonder why I dont play their multiplayer slop
>>739368382i'm sure there's ways to make money by cheating.also not sure if that picture is accurate. but anyway similar idea. not an expert on those dma devices. i guess the idea is that they're linked up. game installed and running on "clean" machine and another is basically running cheats
I just play single player sloppa, what were those devices doing? wallhack? aim assist? something else?
>>739368782PC players are that pathetic
>>739368165what are these? GPUs?
>>739368919>i'm sure there's ways to make money by cheating.Yes if the cheaters get to a tournament and manage to win
>the anti-anti-cheat movement finally gave up due to race warsSo we like Denuvo and kernel-level anti-cheat now? Because of what the other board tells us?
>>739369159yes
>>739369089It's for editing data while it travels from your CPU/RAM to your GPU. A crude application would be to delete wall textures.
>>739369159this is one of (many) cases where you hope both sides kill each other
>>739367884You can't destroy someone's private property because they didn't play their electronic toy the way you wanted them to.
>>739369471you can if they're doing it online chud
>>739368663given that most people dont even know what these are, there's only 1 country who caresand that's the same country that gets butthurt over region based servers or any sort of anti-cheat measures
>>739369387what are their legitimate uses? surely cheaters are a very tiny minority of the people who use these
>>739367563>multiplayer games>competitive games>E-sport bait games>Riotthose people aren't even human
>>739367563How about you just don't cheat?
>>739368782the chinese are pathetic lol
>>739369471Then dont cheat, Ying
FIrst they came for the cheatersAnd i did not speak outBecause I was not a cheater
>>739367563But what about the DRM?
>>739369159>the other boardwhich board? reddit or twitteralso I'll never listen to paid shills
>>739369681I am a cheater and I don't care for them
>>739369554These "men" must die
>>739368324I mean, you can just say you are retarded.Because you can bypass all anti cheat just by using Linux as it allows execution at -1 which is below kernel level
>>739369541Nope, it's what it is for. Cheating yourself to a high rank means you can offer boosting services and make that money easily back and more. Or try to become a streamer I guess.
>>739369541Not these, but hardware manufacturers use something similar during development and quality control.
>>739369525it's cultural for them... Something about the hero being smart and outsmarting everyone but they are too retard and equal it with cheating. They even had a massive scandal with companies selling used cooking oil back too people.
>>739369965I thought riot games don't even work on linux
>>739367563People are actually upset about this?
>>739369965>you can just say you are retardedFound the retarded linuxshill lmao, linux cant even start the riot launcher
>>739370069only if you class chinese cheaters as "people"
>>739368165>>739369387is this a modern day GameShark? I remember you plapped this bad boy between the cartridge and the console and could do all sorts of neat stuff
>>739370098my back and knees
>>739368324I don't think that's legal, at least in the U.S. I could be wrong.
>>739369159when a devil gets caught by a monster, I as a human being can only hope they both die
>>739370146it's only the chineses using this thing
>>739370069You shouldn't worry about cheaters. You should worry about devs.
>>739367884Because vanguard is known to flag random shit as cheating software eben when it isn't
>>739367820>y'yes your honor, I did break the ToS and I demand compensation
>>739368382cheating in games and ruining some sweaty tryhard's experience is really funimagine some fat incel who spends 9000 hours on a game, getting killed repeatedly by someone who just downloaded it a few hours ago and have no idea what a arena fps even isalso equipment like that is useful outside of gaming, in general computer science, hacking, disassembling data etc... you'd actually get more real world skills in how machines work by putting an effort into hacking computers
>>739370181Even so, I'm not sure that it is legal to be distributing software that is intended to destroy/disrupt a user's device in the U.S. Again, I could be wrong.
>>739369541It is the same as whales in F2P games where only a few percent of the userbase keeps up the entire game. The cost of these is nothing compared to what pumped up streamers / boosters and such can make. The harder is to cheat for the average the more impressive it looks if you are on the top.
>>739370365Imagine spending 6k $ to own da fat incel who is so beneath you.Must be real funny being this pathetic and not realizing it.
>>739370331you cant purposely damage someone hardware and claim it was in the ToS, the judge will completely ignore it. The contract only holds if it's not unreasonable.
>>739370189>You should worry about devs.Worry about devs trying to bypass Riot's anti-cheat?
>>739367563So the only people actually complaining about this and faking outrage are brown people who cheat? Good fucking riddance.
>>739370365No offence, but you sound like a faggot.
>>739370563Worry about Riot thinking they're entitled to brik your toaster whenever they please.
>>739370497>DamageIt isnt broken though you retard, if you read anything about it you'd know they just need to reset the firmware.
>>739370636How could anyone possibly worry about this? It's trivial to avoid this problem.
>>739370641Even that is not legal, under my understanding of the law in the U.S. Even just fucking over a user's operating system install would be a disruption of their device. >>739370497>The contract only holds if it's not unreasonable.ToS are garbage contracts anyway. They can't even know that you read the thing (and yes, that does matter).
>>739370786Cheaters get very upset when someone stops them from cheating in a way that actually stops them from cheating.
>>739367563>cheaters getting mad they get fuckedWhat's the problem? Are you nigger op?
>>739367563
>>739371008But this was posted by Riot themselves?
>>739367563No more cheating. Game honestly. Be honourable.
>>739369471They should cut off your hands if you cheat and sent you to die in Ukraine.
>>739367563i don't care because i am not a cück who play Riot games in 2026>>739367651Vanguard is only 3 or 4 years old retard
>>739370098I wish I had the patience to properly use this back then
>>739370469>>739370610It is actually based and you're too much of a low IQ white pig to do anything. Now go snort your meth whitey while your betters shit on you.
Based>BUT MUH CHINESE SPYWARE UUUUUH FALSE POSITIVES UUUUUUHHHHH THEY'RE TOTALLY GONNA GET SUEDRiot will face zero consequences, and if you care about opsec you should have separate computers on isolated vlans anyway
>van>guard
If you play these kind of games you deserve to get cheated AND Riot bricking your hardware.
>>739367563who the hell would pay $6k to cheat?
>>739371172>>739371159why do only shitskins defend cheating?
>>739371264Is dey kultcha
>>739370069There's always the chance of normal players getting harmed by DRM and anti-cheat. Nobody trusts this industry to do a good job on that front.But all that means is that you should have a PC exclusively for gaming if you care about multiplayer, and another machine for everything else.
>>739367651fpbppeople have been saying this since day 1 but apparently nobody listens
>Riottrannies now have to agree to the terms of service that say we can brick your pc whenever we feel like it
>>739371379TSMC was built by AMD
>>739367563I despise cheaters but this is too far. You can't trust a company like this.
>>739368324I don't support cheating, but do you mean riot can brick your hardware with their software? How is this legal?
>>739371769>Morris Chang Chung-mou is a Taiwanese billionaire business executive and electrical engineer. He is the founder of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC)Whitey meth head hallucinating again? Gonna snort another line?
>>739369126Are you saying streamers don't cheat?
>>739372010I'm not saying that and I'm well aware of the cases where someone was caught red handed in tournament setting
>>739371986yeah TSMC took over it
>>739372092they did not. you are a retarded white meth monkey who can't into computers, thats why when chinks and russians spend a month breaking open a game's anti cheat, you seethe because thats something you'll never be able to do.
>>739371857pretty sure it's just soft brick that can happen. just have to reset dma firmware or flash it
>>739372174I have better things to do yeah
>>739371379>Say something embarassing.>Get called out for saying something embarrassing.>Have a melty.You're losing face here.
>excusing a corporation blowing up peoples' computers because an anti-cheat coded and maintained in Hyderabad called them a cheater
>>739372202like overdosing on opioids? i hope you finally do it properly this time, whitey
>kernel level anticheat that can destroy your PC the moment Zhang Bang Duwang flips the switch is a good thing actually
>>739370283I used rewasd for controller remapping, its driver made me bluescreen after enabling vanguard. I simply stopped using rewasd, too many software consider it cheating and gave me trouble
>>739370497Riot is a chink company, why would they care?
>>739369541DMA/IOMMU is used for virtual machine purposes. most anticheats wont allow you to run in a VM.
>>739368382indian/chinese ELO farms.i wish i was kidding.
>>739367563Couldn't they get sued into the dirt for this?Nice little wake up call over kernel level cancer though. Shame nobody will do shit about it.
>>739368382you people ALWAYS underestimate just how far chinese and russian people will go to cheat
>>739370098the modern day gameshark is cheat engine.
>>739371986>TSMC (Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company) was founded in 1987 by Morris Chang, a Taiwanese-American engineer who previously worked at Texas Instruments. It was established as a joint venture involving the Taiwanese government (through the Industrial Technology Research Institute - ITRI), Philips (which provided technology and IP), and private investors. >AMD designed its own CPUs, GPUs, and other chips (like Ryzen, EPYC, and Radeon) and had them manufactured by TSMC (and previously GlobalFoundries or others). >AMD designs its own devices (Ryzen, EPYC, and Radeon) in-house through its engineering teams.>Jim Keller, Chad White and Mike Clark are commonly identified as lead CPU architects at the companyYou jeeties really need to be re-conquered by the British and have your little phones taken away.
>>739372453Thats different. I did boosting myself. Its just logging into some silvers account and getting them to gold or w/e for money.
>>739372487>muh taiwanese geniuses were just manufacturing slaves like the chinksKWAB
>>739368382>>people put this much effort and resources just to cheat in online videogames?people up to 100$ for cheats a month lmao
>>739372487>Born in China, Chang lived in Hong Kong and immigrated to the United Statesyes again white monkies cant create chips, they have to beg chinese to make them (to complex for white subhumans).>>739372539China can just invade taiwan and you white boys will regress back to the stone age :)keep seething methy
>>739372453Why would you even want this? You're just going to dropped into games that are way beyond your skill.
>>739372246>schizo babble about made up scenariosoh no!?
>>739372250heh ironic
Seems over the top. Age verification will solve this issue once and for all anyway.
>>739372657what comes around goes around. enjoy your century of humiliation and starvation

>>739372645whites and latino monkies need to satisfy their fragile ego. chinese will happily take their money for that.
>>739367563>they will never brake custom fork of qemu/kvm quad-pc design I am usingI am one of the top 100 players in the world and I've been using this design for last 10 years.Secret is not to share it once YOU make it.
>>739372527booster farms cheat so they can boost faster and therefore get more clients per hour. it's not rocket science
>>739372693don't really think being in commie china's much better though
>>739372693>Brag about being able to make computers>can't make commercial grade GPU's or RAM on their own>instead make cheat deviceswhy are Chink dog eaters like this?
>>739372645>i'm gold because my teammates suck i'm just unlucky
>>739372756don't you feel retarded for playing a video game with cheats?
>>739372621Chang (which is a hilarious name to have since it's now a slur) did not invent any of this technology thobeit, white guys at AMD did.
>>739371769Nope, that was GlobalFoundries. Which is currently doing the death spiral since they literally gave up trying to compete.
>>739372645egofunnily enough there's also a market for the exact opposite thing (accounts that have an extremely low elo for smurfing)
>mfw I needed the money from leveling accounts to pay my debtsthe triads are going to break my knees and your laughing
>>739372947which was spun out of AMD
Maybe now they'll learn to use those devices for good instead of evil
>>739367769
Based. Cheaters should be happy to still have their lives.
If you think it's okay for companies to destroy their customers' property for any reason you're licking the boot way too hard.
>>739371986The funny thing about that guy is that he wanted to do it in the US first with Texas Instruments but they told him no to continue making... calculators.
>>739371986you wish you had the option to do hardcore drugsyour under developed body would probably implode if a single grain of coke went up your nostril or a single particle of meth entered your lungs

>>739373113-6k changkeep seething
>>739372371they "work" outside of China no? To "work" in another countries you need to follow their laws anon.
>>739368382in some cultures cheating and lying for any amount of gain is seen as a sign of intelligence
>>739373113zoomers have never owned their computersif you grow up on an iphone this is normal

>>739368324What on earth compels people to go to such lengths just to cheat in recreational video games?
>>739367651I like animals that have cute little fingers and use their paws like hands
I never got how something like a computer part can be bricked by code.Shouldn't there be some way to reset or reinstall whatever makes it function? If not, then why not? it's all just digital code, right?
>>739373339being born in the third world
>>739371857Isn't there a terms of use you have to agree with before playing these kind of games, especially after a patch like this? You already clicked away your rights as a human being when you pressed "I agree to these terms."
>>739373339They have a higher IQ. Simple. You can mever make hacks. Keep coloring within the lines white mutt.
>>739373367>anal
>>739373365you can overwrite the code that is needed for the computer to boot>Shouldn't there be some way to reset or reinstall whatever makes it function?yes, you can always fix it with an external flasher, like a CH341A
>>739373018counter his argument, then
>>739367563Based rito, stay mad cheater scum
Alright if porn didnt make him stop spamming then he's not a kid on his phone at school, he is just a fag NEET.
>>739368324How would i go about making it do this to every computer that played this game? This is power companies shouldn’t have and they should be punished for it.
>>739371857they can't. zoomers have no idea how computers work. at worst it just means the investment you made in that stupid cheating hardware is now useless.
>>739367563Is this legal? Two rights don't make a wrong: if a thief steals your watch that doesn't justify you breaking the windows of his car. This looks like a lawsuit in the making
>>739367563honestly based, fuck cheaters.
>>739373654if you keep posting it over and over again i'm sure someone will sue them for you mr chang!
>>739367563>bricking PCs over a fucking VIDEO GAMEhow can you be more infantile than the manchildren you're selling your dogshit to, just ban them
>>739373339you have to understand the chinese mindset. They literally unironically believe that having more money than someone else means you're better than them, so spending $6000 to beat them in a game is completely normal and justifiable for them. Think of all the p2w chinkslop MMOs or gachas where whales spend that much money every single month. In that light a $6000 investment that lets you win at any game you want is just the smart thing to do, right?
>>739373365There are many theoretical ways to damage hardware via software, but it's so impractical that I doubt that these are actual bricks. Just retarded users and Riot propaganda.
>>739373251hopefully your mother gets beheaded by niggers, while your subhuman father has to watch.
>>739372723This will be solved with a $5 spi flasher
>>739373879So if that's the case, why not get rid of the glownigger-tier rootkit anticheat and give players server settings where they can choose which regions they want to connect with?
>>739367651bobr
>>739373654>if a thief steals your watch that doesn't justify you breaking the windows of his car.A more apt analogy would be if you broke his arm while he tried to rob you.
>>739372723>>739373952Yeah, flashing new firmware to your DMA device is not exactly a rare occurrence.
>>739368382Non-Christian cultures have no stigma against cheating, so long as you aren't caught.
>>739367563Pretty fucking based Anyone who plays "competitive" multiplayer shit should have their pcs bricked
>>739373339It's called jugaad
>>739373879Sounds like America desu
>>739374046I disagree, because breaking his arm is not equal to damaging property, that's bodily harm and not comparable to theft/vandalism
>>739367820Except that isn't isn't bricking them if the fix is as easy as reinstalling the os.
>>739367563Riot doing something based was not on my bingo card.
>>739367820pretty based if true
>>739374203Then the analogy only works if the thief has property that was used exclusively for robbery broken in the process of performing a robbery.
>reinstalling OS = bricking Zoomers were a mistake
>>739368382>people put this much effort and resources just to cheat in online videogames?Yes they do, some even pay monthly very expensive subscriptions to get custom made cheats. The lengths some people will go to cheat on a video game are insane and it's only gotten worse and worse with streamer/twitch culture. Ignorance is bliss as they say. I knew about the cheating scene from the CS 1.6 days so I was oblivious to all the new stuff and I decided to do a deep dive after apex legends got hacked mid tournament by someone who found a way to give himself admin rights and I checked forums, private discords, telegram channels and went down the rabbit hole to see the state of cheating 2 years ago or so.It is now a billion dollar industry and it is absolutely disgusting, I can't enjoy multiplayer slop the same anymore after all that.
>>739368165niggas spend $5k on DMA devices?
>>739374535yeah I had a similar experience after reading people bitching about Tarkov cheaters. It couldn't be that bad, right? No, no it really fucking is that bad. In fact it's worse than anyone could possibly understand.
>>739373347
>>739373879it's more like they think cheating/scamming is normal. combine that with an insecure ego that can't handle losing.
>>739372918i am gold and my teams do feed and int
Anons please help please, I used to play lol and uninstalled it. Would a factory reset clean my PC of that vanguard bullshit? Please I will appreciate any info I am anxious about that shit spying on me and bricking my PC for no reason, I only have 1 PC and too poor to get another
>>739375397You can't uninstall Vanguard. Better start saving for a new PC bud.
>>739375397Spray your PC with alcohol to remove malware
>>739375397Go in your C: drive and search for "riot" like pic related. Then do the same in your regedit. If you find nothing you're good, if you find something you'll have to delete it manually, you might have to start your computer in safe mode for that.In the future stay away from companies who install agressive rootkits on your machine like vanguard, ngameguard, javelin, etc etc. All their games are shit anyway.
>>739373879>having more money than someone else means you're better than themBut that's literally correct. Money is what governs everything in your life.
>>739367563The only anticheat/ban method I'll ever back is a service that requires your social security etc to sign up for, so if you get banned you're fucked.
>>739373224calm down bro
>>739375982Based pleb. More of you goy should think like this it would make the world a better place.
>>739375982I know some of these Chinese guys and some of them will literally go into debt to dunk on other people at some random trash mobile game. Asians also tend to have more gambling issues than whites.t. own 4 appartments and a house and would never spend a $ on cheating
>>739376154You did not prove me wrong, only insult me. That's because you know it's true.

Valorant is kind of a fun e sport to watch but I’m not putting that shit on my pc
>>739376324No I'm agreeing with you 100%. As a therapist I can tell you from experience that rich people problems are worth more to me than poor people problems despite being the same problems :^)
>>739372748It's the chinese boosting their own scores retard
>>739368165I really do not understand the mindset behind cheating. What is the purpose? What do you gain? Is it really all izzat?
>>739369471You can't waste everyone's time because you can't play the same electronic toy game as everyone else and need to cheat. After bricking their computer, they should be arrested and executed as well. Literally no one would care if that was the law btw.
>>739367651>>739373984bober, even
Whats even the point in spending thousands just to cheat on a game?At that point wouldnt it be better just to quit?Its not like theyre playing the championships or anything.
>>739370020Not just selling used oil back but also selling new oil from tanks they had previously filled with chemicals and never cleaned out.
first it's bricking your PC for cheatingthen it's bricking your PC for saying the nigger wordthen it's bricking your PC because you pissed off an autistic person who uses bots to mass report youthen it's bricking your PC for literally no reason, the detection software just making a mistake
>>739368324faggots will do all this shit and still lose games lmao
>>739370641So Riot's tweet about turning it into a paperweight is just a fucking lie? Great company surely supported by genetic dead ends.
>>739378779Its called a joke, my autistic friend
>>739367563Cheaters do nothing good in society and only steal money, or time from others. They should all be locked up.
>playing chink gamea
>>739377090They make money from it by boosting accounts. A $6k investment can be easily paid off with a dozen people.
>>739372246If you get banned for cheating in an online game with kernel level anti-cheat, you 100% cheated because they barely ban anyone and all the games are full of cheaters.
>>739377062
>>739378779If your cheating device can't be used for cheating then its a paperweight, whether it actually physically functions or not
>>739374212>just wipe your drive bro!
It is funny to watch two groups of people I cannot stand tear at each others throats, what a great Friday.
>>739370365Peak underage reddit post. Stay in school kiddo
>>739381438Don't be so dramatic. These arguments appear to be so fierce because there's nothing at stake. If these people were to have been put into a room and given weapons, not a single one of them would dare to make a peep, they would simply sit there and awkwardly stare at one another.
>>739377131companies should have unchecked power, as long as it's documented properly they should be allowed to straight up openly kill people. only commie troons disagree.
>>739376520Favelados arent the ones spending prime dosh on this stuff, at most they get is like 200 Lulas on a aimbotThe stuff the chinese get is almost the price of a car hereBut yeah only genuinely subhuman retards do that bullshit
>>739373427ToS has weak legal defense if it asks you to do illegal shit, at least according to courts in the US. There might be some lawsuits pending against Riot
>>739371075>china>honesty>complaining about a wall of text in a webpage that's a wall of text
>>739367820Would be a pretty clear case, at least in Europe. Breaking TOS doesn't give permission for property damage.

>>739376984Psychopaths with nothing going on in their lives and nothing better to do than ruin the internet for everyone else. There is double digit whole number percentages of these "people" on the internet now.

>>739369681The cheaters would not speak out for were the roles reveres anyway, because they are amoral people.The same applies to the original poem BTW, the author was a retarded cuck.
>>739384872Not really. You sell accounts to people who think they they're stuck in Elo hell and deserve a higher rank.
>>739367563The guy will win any lawsuit. This has gone to court before. Current legal precedent is this is a crime. A judge can order the company (and has ordered companies in the past) to reimburse people.
>>739388923You won't do shit
>>739376368>never happened once btwMicrosoft literally just lost multiple lawsuits for lost data during Windows 10 upgrades. Sony factually did the same thing this thread is about (distributing DRM that became dangerous). The Sony BMG settlements cost Sony about $10,000,000 in payouts to affected users, settling with Texas and California individually and then 40 other states together.Your ignorance teeters on delusion, zoomite.
>>73937342720 years ago, Sony also asked you to agree to having a rootkit installed on your PC to access their music services. The courts determined that clicking agree on a TOS page didn't change the illegal action of distributing malware into a legal action.
>>739389519And yet Vanguard exists right now, with Riot under no legal threat whatsoever.
>>739370863>They can't even know that you read the thingthey agreed to it though
>>739370365I’m sure someone of your status would need that.

just don't cheat.or better yet, don't play valorant.
It's amazing how slimy people are on here, jumping to the defense of cheaters
>>739383193>I got called retarded for posting this before>I'll post it again anyway and get defensive in advanceTL-fucking-DR retard
>>739393041It's a slippery slope like anons have previously stated. Punitive actions taken place within the context of the video game are completely fine and well within the rights of a developer to mete out. When you're dealing with the destruction of private property outside of the virtual is when it becomes a major issue - which is what non-griefers are arguing about.
>>739393041i agree, we must be better men
So if the devs mess up and cause a gamebreaking bug to happen, do I have the right to brick the Riot devs computers since they ruined my game?
>>739371008More and more I'm beginning to think that some of the biggest and most genuine shilling on this board is done by cheat devs and, as much as this board loves to cry shill, this is probably the only time I've seen other people actually notice any of it.
>>739374773So they actually eat wood for sustenance? I figured it was just a chew and spit situation with maybe some of it being consumed to help with fiber.
>>739395336Of course. It's a gorillion dollar industry. Their paypiggies do it for free too!
>>739393737>the destruction of private property okay but that didnt happen, too bad you dont know how computers work, or even read for that matter. rope now cheating faggot

>>739369541>surely cheaters are a very tiny minority of the people who use theseOther way around, you can even google it and almost all of the results are about cheating. Practically nobody is going to have one of them in their personal computer unless they're doing something like this. Fun fact too, companies like Lenovo who support it for enterprises recommend enabling the feature Riot used because DMAs are a security risk and it stops them from potentially doing what the cheat DMAs do which is intruding into secure memory. Basically all Vanguard does is tell Windows what the DMA card is doing and Windows flags it as malicious and blocks it.
>>739395774yes you are anon, now go back to "reading" your picture books
>>739389928its not backpedaling, you're just a retard who buys dma hardware without having an inkling of how computers work.
>>739383193Classic read.
>>739376950Chinese people don't have >$600 to burn on bullshit like that. Nor would they make an English interface for the site. Whites are the market.
>>739367563Technically it's the cheat device that's bricking your PC. If you've got a problem take it up with the manufacturer
>>739384495This is obviously a Chinese product and the Chinese speak English as good as the English speak Chinese.
>>739367563Cheaters lose gaming companies millions every year because no one buys games riddled with cheaters, so I don't see how this is not justified. Having said that, I doubt I'd ever in my entire life install a game that has rootkit anticheat.
if you play league of legends you deserve to have your computer bricked but also i wanna see riot raped over this.
>>739367820doing that to cheaters is hilarious, the only problem i see is the fact they could do that to anyone.I will refrain from purchasing any of their products in the future.
>>739368382>do they get anything out of it?They get to win.
>>739376984>I really do not understand the mindset behind cheating. What is the purpose? What do you gain?I'll explain. You're probably overthinking it. The entire mental process of the cheater is:>Fuck you, I want to win.That's it. That's the whole thing from beginning to end. There's nothing after that, no introspection, no self-awareness. Just>Fuck you, I want to win.
>>739369471Clearly they can, since they did exactly that.
it's funny and deserved because it's happening to cheaters, but when it starts being used against people who wrongthink on xitter while having valorant or LoL installed on their PC, it will still be funny and deserved
>>739376984White people have the idea of fair play, if you win you are the best.Other races only care about appearing to be the best, how they do it is irrelevant.
>>739389928Riot first got raped by Tencent for posting retarded shit against fans and some high level exec had to damage control. and now it's about to get raped again. Why do westerners never learn?
>>739367563>paying to cheatkekdeserved
>>739400634I hope all subhuman filth that play ASSFAGGOTS get their computer bricked.
>>739372371They want to do business in the west, yeah? They kind of have to care.
>>739367696Some lowlife scum are willing to pay other lowlife scum around $5,800 for a specialized piece of cheating hardware that you connect to a PCIe slot. This hardware has the ability to access the computer's memory in a way that can be difficult for anti-cheat to detect (DMA), so it can find and read that game data memory to feed into cheats like wallhacks, etc. However, the Windows kernel is obviously aware of this hardware since it runs when the computer boots the OS, and it can see these devices and block them. Vanguard essentially asks the kernel to detect this unauthorized memory access and block the hardware, and once Windows flags it, the computer won't boot until the hardware is removed. I would imagine this is because the cheat hardware designers configure it as an essential driver. Reinstalling Windows would only be necessary to "remove" the flag from the blacklisted hardware (until Vanguard/Windows block it again the next time a cheater is stupid enough to have the hardware connected). So it doesn't really "brick" the computer in any sense, it just blocks the hardware until you remove it, and because the cheat manufacturers designate it as an essential driver that runs at boot, Windows won't boot until it's gone.

>>739401837>paying 6k to cheat in one gamehow absolutely pathetic
>DON'T FUCKING BRICK MY $6000 CHEAT DEVICE !!!! I'LL SUCK YOU DICK!! I'LL EAT YOUR SHIT!!! DO YOU WANT ME TO SUCK YOUR COCK AND EAT YOUR SHIT BECAUSE I WILL!!!! JUST DON'T BRICK MY $6000 CHEAT DEVICE PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>if you play league of legends you deserve to have your computer bricked but>it's funny and deserved because it's happening to cheaters, but
>>739402625correcton both statements
>>739402625>>739401837The computer works fine when you remove the cheat card. You could also uninstall Valorant (or whatever riot game is doing this) and continue using the cheat card for something else.Nothing is bricked.
>>739402736don't carefuck cheaters and fuck you
>>739400634>>739402625>>739402706Oh wait lol, I didn't read to the end:>but when it starts being used against people who wrongthink on xitter while having valorant or LoL installed on their PC, it will still be funny and deserved
>>739402804Don't defend cheaters nigger
>>739379940>If you get banned for cheating in an online game with kernel level anti-cheat, you 100% cheated
>>739368254lmao you think netcafes are paying 6000 usd per computer? Every single computer in netcafes is budget to mid tier at best, there's a reason why the top played in cafes are all extremely low requirement games.

>>739405176Because the rest of the board, like you, is retarded and seething alongside cheaters at them over misinformation and shit that affects no legitimate player.

>>739381231>his os isnt on a separate drive
>>739369089A more advance version of Cronus zen. Plug into your pcie and it can start reading memory from your pc directly through DMA without going through your CPU and OS. They are thus called DMA cheat/device. They have their own data processing and software running inside them, and thus they leave no trace in the host PC making them impossible to detect using standard anti cheat.They can process 3D data, take the output of your GPU then feed a xray vision of it to your monitor. Some could also use this to emulate input like that of aimbot.I think about a year ago anti-cheat like vanguard started using IOMMU to detect them. It flags hardware that try to access data that they are not supposed to read like a soundcard reading graphic data(they used to identify themselves as soundcard). Cheaper and basic DMA become obsolete, more advance one get around by taking control of the driver before anti-cheat kick in. The latest drama seems to be that vanguard is prematurely patching driver to block this.
>>739368382All Asian societies have this mindset regarding competition of any kind, in general, is to win at any cost, no matter what. The two Koreas, Japan, etc. /v/ want the idea that is exclusive of China, but not.

>>739412593So they just like Americans but more competent.
cheating to make emotionally stunted strangers chimp out live is fun and no amount of moralfagging will convince me otherwise

>>739367563Just stop cheating, cheater.
forcibly projecting your nihilistic attitude is supposed to get old once you're 18 and realize why you have nobody you can trustcheaters get the rope
>>739367820you can unbrick it, they won't go as far as actually destroying hardware due to the illegality of doing that.
Erm, correct me if I'm but this only defeats DMA modules that are still slotted into the same pc, correct? If I using DMA directly from a modified ram stick to a 2nd pc, I legit do not understand how anyone is going to stop me. Not that I would do that, I only cheat for resources, not wallhacks.
>>739414894brrraaaaaaap

>>739367563>say words>hardware stolen
Developers used to turn a blind eye to this because people who use these cheats are wealthy whales or streamers who bring profit to the developer
>>739418220i know what he said, him asking how people are supposed to know what the media says is lies indicates he himself does not expect the media to lie. Anyone with an ounce of intelligence should know that the media solely exists to spread lies
