If you still play Riot games past 2014, especially Valorant, you are so retarded you deserve this
only beautiful based people play assfagots
>>739413090Expect to have a bunch of shit eating redditors in this thread. The concept of false positives will be completely ignored because they worship corporate authority and will forever label anyone affected by this, or anyone that doesn't want literal malware on their system as a cheater.
>>739413183Thanks cheeseposter
>>739413090you just got attacked by GeorgeFloyd.exe
>false positives!two weeks
>1 of the 3 threads pushing the same psyop bullshit to tech illiterate retards dies>immediately make another onekill yourself dumb faggot, nobody cares that you cant use your $6k dma card in valorant anymore
>>739413315Or you can stop trying to fucking cheat and just actually play the game like a real human being for once.
>>739413410You seem to have forgotten when everyone who used AMD Anti-Lag+ got banned from CS because the fucking morons at Valve weren't respecting that a hardware device driver should have authority over a user mode video game. False positives absolutely happen.
>>739413456>noo you cant cheat nooo its da ruuuuls!lollmao
>>739413456I don't even play assfaggots or riotslop, let alone bother to cheat in them. What I don't want is and industry standard where chink or jeet vibecoded anticheat bugging out and uninstalling my PCI drivers and making me reinstall my entire OS or reflashing BIOS.
>Celebrating breaking a single DMA card when others are still working flawlesslylmao
>>739413541You're why drm exist btw hope you know that
>>739413534at least get a Riot example
>>739413456>everyone who disagrees is a cheeder!riotjeet detected
>>739413315care to explain what is malware about the anticheat software? dont tell me you actually fell for the blatantly fake op image lmfao
>>739413090All it takes is one false positive. Just one and this argument catastrophicly break's
>>739413571Ok. Vanguard was falsely blocking Deadlock from being run a few weeks back.
>>739413610Software that has authority to uninstall random parts of your kernel or drivers just because lol lmao.
>>739413637and I guess now it's not? what a tragedy.
>>739413553good thing that's not how it works or we'd have a real problem
>>739413647okay and that didnt happen so thanks for embarrassing yourself even further
>>739413183>Linking r3ddit RetardLink x post or fuck off
>>739413657>try to play other videogame>ALERT: CHINA HAS DETECTED YOU ARE CHEATING>uninstalls your PCI drivers and bricks your PC because your GPU doesn't work anymore.
Remember when all Linux accounts got banned from... I think it was Apex Legends... for having a supposedly high number of cheaters?This kind of shit is why I will never trust any corporation with kernel level shit (That and the era of curry smelling vibe coded slop).
>>739413704>anti-lag got people VAC banned>rolled back>vanguard prevented launching deadlock>fixedany other exciting revelations?
>>739413637>>739413704you realize that you could have just, uh, closed vanguard? it really is zoomer who dont understand anything about computers pushing this shit
>>739413090if corporations remotely deactivate the game or console I purchased that is THEFT.They have take my private property. I no longer have the thing I purchased because of their thieving actions.So if it's ok for corpos to steal from people, then it's ok for me to steal from them.and i wish piracy WAS theft. I wish every time I pirated something, it physically removed money/property from the company.I would pirate non stop until they had nothing left. I would put the CEOs into poverty and then stab them to death in their homeless box on the street.
>>739413657>Yes we bricked the firmware on your PCIe devices and rendered your PC unbootable, but we aren't doing it anymore!That's the problem and if you can't see it you deserve it to happen to you
>>739413759You can't close vanguard silly. It always runs in the background, even after you "close" it.
>>739413090>Cope level has been logged for troubleshooting
>they just killed millions of people but they arent doing it anymore what a tragedy next !
>>739413779Any proof of this actually happening?
>>739413747Holy jeetcope. I hope they are at least paying you.
PSA: These threads are part of a campaign by seething cheaters upset their 6000 dollar cheating devices have been turned into paperweights, do not engage if you value your time
>>739413779>Yes we bricked the firmware on your PCIe devices and rendered your PC unbootablenever happened, but too bad you cant wall in valorant anymore. dont worry you can still use your dma card to cheat in cod or something, hopefully you finish the payment plan soon!
All PCfags had to do was not cheat and this shit wouldn't happen
>>739413814It's not the when it's the threat. It shouldn't EVER happen and preventing that means gutting kernel anticheat at the source. They don't need to be fucking around in kernel mode for a video game, period.
>>739413874>leave the smol dma card alone
>>739413090I don't download chink junk
>>739413848I'm genuinely baffled people spend $6000 FUCKING DOLLARS to cheatThat is beyond mental illness
>>739413902>everyone who opposes ridiculous overreach for a video game is a dma cheaterkys
>>739413657Those goal posts are moving faster than a somali migrant with your TV.
>>739413315Like clockwork>>739413456>>739413610>>739413848>>739413849
>>739413920It's like gacha games, first they start paying small fees, then medium subscriptions, then suddenly they're paying big for hardware cheats to keep getting their dopamine
>>739413848>almost 6000$ monopoly moneylmao there is equal ones at 180$
Maybe games should go back to the community server model where the community can ban cheaters instead of stuffing everyone into the matchmaking queue forcing more and more invasive anti-cheat.
>You're cheater if you think billions dollar companies shouldn't remote brick pcswild
>>739413970But then how could you ban hatespeech and wrongthink?
>>739413930the only shit I've seen of the deadlock instance was a powershell script of another exe launching itliterally minimum effort
>>739413996are the remote bricked pcs in the room with us now?
>>739413970Oy vey how are we going to sell premium cosmetics if you do that?
>>739413183if you unironically play league of fucking legends in 2026 you deserve much worse than this desu
I don't understanding cheating in a video game.I'm playing Forza Horizon 6 right now and unlocking things at a steady pace feels more rewarding and fun.But guess what everyone is doing instead:GUIDE: HOW TO UNLOCK EVERY CAR IN 5 MINUTES 999,999,999 CREDITS, UNLIMITED SPINS, XP GLITCH CLICK HERE.Its just sad.

>>739413090>HV bypass is completely saf-ACK!
Kek, this Riot shill works as fast as those israeli drones
>>739413939I mean I bet they also support switch 2 bricking shit.
>>739414049ok? i dont understand quantum mechanics?
>>739414052no response obviously. didnt ask about false positives, just for a single instance of a pc being bricked, cheater or not. btw rope wont run you 6k and its far more effective for your skill issues
>people are ACTUALLY defending a company who releases $500 skins
>>739414121Shut up riot shil.
>>739414121If it wasn't happening, people wouldn't be talking about it everywhere retard. If it wasn't happening to such a degree, Riot wouldn't have to cope out a PR statement.
>>739413090If you're stupid enough to install something like this you deserve it
>>739414154>If it wasn't happening, people wouldn't be talking about it everywherehaha
>>739413249Dumbass, if we let Riot get away with it then other companies might start following suit. You shouldn't give companies an inch.
>>739413848the funny part is that this has happened multiple times before, but the outrage only happened on THIS specific cardwho owns the fucking company
>>739413090I literally have 0 games with anti-cheat or denuvo installed
Unironically the biggest tourist tell next to whining about straight sexualization is defending this kind of shit.
Thank god i only play Goatnendo games so this shit doesn't affect me.
>>739414213This so much this!!
>>739414154then it should be easy to find it happening. but you havent because you cant. of course someone dumb enough to spend thousands to cheat in a free video game would also be dum enough to think this is a real argument>>739414145so mad you cant even argue lmfao, enjoy being shit and videogames and poor
>>739414204whoever it is they should be spending money on something better than trying to influence opinions on /v/ of all places
>>739414184>If you let riot ban DMA cards, other companies might as well!
how about we just kill all the so-called "human beings" still playing games made by riot? problem solved, and probably a lot of other problems solved too.
>>739414154>If it wasn't happening, people wouldn't be talking about it everywhere retarduh huh just like the holocaust bud
>>739414298>If you let [company] put denuvo on their games, other companies might as well!
we've yet to see the ultimate contrarian who defends both sides
>>739414298Why is it that redditors can only argue by intentionally misunderstanding things?
>>739414154yeah just like the VAC astroturf by cheaters 10 years ago on how it was scanning your browsing history for porn and how Valve should be sued (from 1 day old reddit acounts)
>>739414313>40% of western countries, almost entirely liberal democrats>80-85% of asian countries>95% of chinayou know what im okay with this lets do it
>>739414247Case in point.Die you massive faggot.
it's a competitive game so it's important to stop cheatersif you don't want to play the game, don't install itliterally not a problem
>>739414360as opposed to you unintentionally misunderstanding things because you are retarded and cant read what actually happened?
>>739414298geg it's really funny how the 3rd world cheating niggers are trying to poison the well by pretending that their DMA hardware getting blacklisted is equivalent to their computer getting brickedfucking hate social engineering
a false positive just flew over my head
>>739414441i know shills and paid campaigns get thrown around a lot on /v/ but there is genuinely a lot of money behind anti anticheat propaganda online because of how important cheating is to crypto spot betters
>>739414441How do 3rd worlders even afford $6000 cheating cards?
The correct stance for /v/ poster is to agree with riot. Reason :1. It hurts their company brand2. It hurts cheater3. It hurts non cheater who still play riot games4. It doesn't affect you
>>739413090Vanguard blue screened my shit once and I did a completely fresh install to get rid of that shit. No game is worth kernel level anticheat. I feel subhuman for ever having installed it.
>>739414508its extremely obvious seeing as how there are never any threads about rito slop besides the occasional league cooming thread. and yet there are 3 on the catalog right now about a fake story
I honestly do not understand why people bother cheating in online video games. Its not like a single player game where you might be stuck on a boss or something and you just want the game to proceed so you can continue the story or whatever. What's even the point of cheating in an online game as you are just getting a fake victory for no real reason.
>no see it's not your computer you're just borrowing it from riot>don't you care about X gameNah, go die in a fire
>>739414515Selling high rank good standing boosted valorant accounts is like $400~600 per account.>sell 10 accounts>buy DMA card + cheat because you'll be able to climb faster and sell more accounts without having to climb the shit pits on your own skill
>>739414515It's easy to hustle from other poor 3rd worlders
>>739414184I completely agree. Valorant fags STILL deserve it because they're that retarded
this has been tested on tens of millions of players for days already. any reports of false positives that have been substantiated and arent false flags? this is the bare minimum standard of evidence, btw
>>739413761>if corporations remotely deactivate the game or console I purchased that is THEFT.but the company owns the software, you just own the shitbox
>>739414621cheating is big in china, if you win by any means necessary, its concidered a win even if you cheated. As long as you dont get caught everything is ok
>>739414754>any reports of false positives that have been substantiated and arent false flags?nosome reporters may fuck themselves and their reports over by listening to random posts about diving into their bios
>the "forced to re-install" part comes from some retard using the DMA as his fucking NVME on unknowncheats (was called a retard by the locals)>the "bricked hardware" comes from green reddit confusing the DMA hardware with a fucking GPU on twitter (was called a retard by twittoids)i love misinformation
>>739413315>false positives for a dma deviceLmao.
Only people who dislike this are cheaters!
>>739415452trvke
>>739415215incoherent Indian post
>>739415215Please speak English saar
>>739415215Saaar I don't understand
>>739413090Honestly the worst part of this is the riot dickriding cumguzzlers that portray themselves as technology literate because they can repost PR posts from riot or literal lies from gamerdoc.Vanguard has been well known to be malware that has intentionally damaged hardware in the past, half the dev team is ex-malware and game cheat devs.For context, I work for a team that develops anti rootkit software, I have also been reversing and claiming bounties from Vanguard, EAC, and Ricochet for the past 5 years.In 2024 if you exposed a pcie device in your VM they didn't recognize and you launched valorant they would intentionally push malicous payloads designed to permanently brick devices, they would also push code to motherboards that were vulnerable to EFI hijacking which had a significant chance at bricking mobos.There is also the fact they dump and send a ton of information from multiple development programs (Better hope you don't have IDA or visual studio installed or at a minimum all your project paths are being sent) along with chat programs (Discord token snatching was just the start)
>>739415584>larping as a whitehat on /v/For what purpose
>>739415584The sad part is people will just poopoo this post and call you a cheater because that's easier than arguing against super invasive software.The fact people let that jeetcode have authority over their pcie firmware and constantly run until you reboot is insane. It'll fuck over actual cheaters sure, but when ramdeep, or ling-xiao pushes a bad update, and someone gets his board friend he'll complain about it online as a false positive only for 1000 riot dickriders to call him a cheater.
>>739415584>>739415767>samefaqging this hardat least change up the fucking reddit spacing lmfao. good thing these malicious payloads were totally real so you can provide some source right? oh wait you can't, go plug your dma card in and hop in the bathtub faggot
>>739415820Cope
>>739415584The sad part is people might believe you
>>739415846jk you caught me
>>739415846>dma'd the yous
>>739415970Yeah I photoshopped it in a minute lol. Took you 4.I accept your concession.
>>739415584Nice try Riot shill, your false flag larp won't work on me.
>>739413701>link vomit, not shit!How about linking neither, cockwaffle?
>>739416016>being this mad that someone isnt autistically replying immediately to your shitpostlmao makes sense that you would cheat when you are this desperate for attention. Cope and rope faggot
Solution: Play other games.Don't give companies like that your money.t. hasn't played ASSFAGGOTS in like a decade
>>739413701even worse and indian sub, absolutely disgusting
The punishment absolutely does not fit the crime, but as someone who will never cheat, I don't care. If bricking your shit is what needs to be done to stop you from engaging in such an embarrassing act, do it. False positives are the only concern. That is why such a thing shouldn't be implemented.
>>739413848>pc niggers spend 10k on a pc to play a game from 2009>6k of it is to out-cheat the cheatersdamn, pc niggers are some crazy niggers.
>DUDE THEY FREAKING BRICKED PEOPLES PCS OMG!!!>look up what actually happened>all they did was disable peoples dma cards>not even actually bricking it, it's a software thing that's easily fixed>third worlders who spent an entire years worth of salary in their country ($6000) to cheat in video games are now screeching about how riot fried their computer in a desperate attempt to convince gullible retards to put pressure on riot to let them cheat
>>739416215>False positives are the only concern. That is why such a thing shouldn't be implemented.Can't make an omelette without breaking a few eggs.
>>739416328yes and now you see how this board is completely infested with thirdies, shills, and room temperature iq fools
>only impacts cheaters>people are mad at itHMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
Cheaters and pirates always run to law abiding citizens with all sorts of ridiculous FUD bullshit anytime anything even trips them up for just half a second demanding the normal morally upright citizens take protest action on their behalf. Do not believe their lies. These people are complete scum. Don't fight for their "right" to ruin your gaming experience.
>>739413135>>739413156riot is chinese>>739413183>r/IndiaTechlmao
>>739414756No I own the software. I purchased it for full price. it's stored and running on my machine.just like I purchased Flash 8 in 2004 and still have it.
Noone forces you to install chinese software on your PC. Also, I have learned that people literally pay to cheat in LoL. I didn't even realise people still play this game
>>739416089that's only you though seriously, kill yourself
>>739416328Correct.Never listen to 3rd worlders. They are all liars.
people who play these competitive online games are goycattle and deserve anything that happens to them
So which one is it?>actual, irreversible hardware bricking>'bricking' in the sense of making a $6000 DMA card effectively useless (for the time being)>only warranting a reinstall of Windows
>>739413920Money is relative. That's absolute pennies to some people.
>>739414049I mean forza horizon isn't a videogame. Its car gacha and nobody gives a shit about the "gameplay" or "racing". Which is at best mediocre.Are you really surprised the people who enjoy skinnerboxes are doing that?
>>739414621Short answer is retardation
why didn't they just ban them normally?
>>739413090feels like this should be illegal
>>739416759>no uyoure right that it makes me happy to see a cheating bitch like you get so worked up lmao
>>739416938that is pretty much what they did. The problem is that the cheaters then spam every website telling people that riot broke their computer because they think that they can trick people into reversing the bans.
i'm so glad i don't play MMOs, MOBAs, or anything ran by the communist chinese
>>739416891retard
>>739413848>it actually is $6000Holy shit. Riot did nothing wrong, installing Valorant right fucking now
>>739415641No need to larp, it's not exactly a difficult field to get into especially if you're the kind of autistic that finds computer logic comforting. All this info is relatively public if you look into it.>>739415820Sorry man, not the same dude.These payloads were reported a while ago, you can have a look on UC in the reversing thread if you want. Alternatively you can check the method they use for screenshotting (It isn't cleaned or restricted to the game as they suggest)I know one of the mobo vulns was fixed back in bios F7 on the Gigabyte X670 gaming X AX.If you really need I can post an image of my test board.If you know anyone in the EAC team you can message them, I recently cleared a bounty using an EFI loader as a POC using Squad and Hell Let Loose as examples.
what is the point of spending money to cheat in league of legends
>>739416780>>only warranting a reinstall of Windowsnot even. just don't boot from the SSD you're using to cheat
I hope all you faggots get your PCs bricked for playing this piece of shit in the first place.
>>739413848>SIX FUCKING GRAND cheating deviceexplain why would people do this? sell the "boosted" account later? a fucking ego?
>>739418007>sell the "boosted" account laterthischeating up account ranks and selling them to westerners is an enormous actual industry in korea and china
I don't even know what game this is about.People keep saying riotgames like that is supposed to mean anything.
>play on Windows>get fuckedDont act as if you dont enjoy big Microsoft dick up your ass
>>739418007>>739418046also crypto betting on tier 2 esports
>>739413090Oh, it's just Riot Games.
>>739418184No anon, its Microsoft banning hardware because Riot asked them too.
They just gotta reinstall their OS. Think of it as mandated wait period until they are able to install and play the game again on another account for a few minutes for getting that one banned too-- far from a paper weight. Dramatic children.
>>739413090this is based
>>739413586>everyone who disagrees is a cheeder!yes unironically
>>739418279I saw people claiming the device itself gets added to a blacklist so no computer with that hardware can ever run the game again.
>>739418279I don't think a mere video game should have this kind of ability over a PC but also I would never install said game in the first place. At least it's a good reminder to some what 'kernel level access' means.
>>739413183can you not go in safe mode and uninstall it?
>>739418251Oh, it's just Microsoft.
>>739413090>if our anti-cheat thinks you cheat it will brick your PCwhat the fuckthis can't be legalwhat's next, anti-cheat that overheats your graphics card until it explodes?
>>739418520>At least it's a good reminder to some what 'kernel level access' means.To be fair, you don't need kernel level access to brick a computer.The kernel level access is enabling the detection, not the destruction.
>>739413759>it really is zoomersaar
>>739418583anti-cheat that overheals my graphics card?!
>>739418712>AHHHH he forgot to put an s at the end of the word he must be a pajeet!!! Ill just ignore everything he said that makes me look like the absolute retard that I am and point this out insteadk
>>739418734>Anon has dyslexia
>>739418592I feel like you're omitting the part where it can diddle your computer wherever it wants. And this was company-endorsed hack.Part of me wishes bad actors would breach Riot's security and then go mess with their user account's computers. Because that is what could happen with their level of anti-cheat software.
I just hope everyone loses bigly from this retardationfuck cheaters, fuck riot and fuck kernal anti-cheatsnext 20 years spent on lawyer hell for everyone involved
>>739418861its not omitted because there was no "company-endorsed hack". stop larping when you aren't just tech illiterate, but so full on illiterate you cant even read what actually happened
>>739418827saar
>>739419147I feel like you're choking on sloppy semantic dick and that your level of autism makes you allergic to interacting with grass outside
>>739418861>Part of me wishes bad actors would breach Riot's security and then go mess with their user account's computers. Because that is what could happen with their level of anti-cheat software.They could do this without kernel level access too. Kernel level does open up a few more doors but you can do all sorts of damage with just admin level.You've just fallen for the FUD bullshit. Mostly the concern of kernel level shit is is it unstable and going to crash your OS as opposed to just a single program. Microsoft doesn't just let any old shit run at kernel level. Not for a while now.
>>739419283>raging so hard at being called out for lying he cant formulate a real responseok buddy, would you like to explain in your own words what exactly happened that makes this a "hack" that "diddled your computer"?
>>739413090PC gaymingnot even once
>install malware on pc>surprised it fucks your pc up
>cheating is bad and should be stoppe->NOT LIKE THAT ACKWhy are you like that?
>>739413090>Riotcucks and cheaters flaying each otherPretty good day so far.
Fuck cheaters but anyone who cheers on this is 100% a vaxxie
>>739419438I feel like it's ironic that you accuse me of doing of what you did initially. They have a word for that. Have a good one and have fun knowing that your computer can get fucked any moment if Riot has a brainfart. You seem like the type to have this game installed. "Buddy."
>>739419836right got it, no response other than "no u". time for you to go make a sixth thread on the subject where you havent been clowned for lying yet so you can rage about wasting 6k. as a friendly favor ill let you know theres a way out of the payment plan for your brick, its called rope.
>>739413090I don't play games with kernel level chink spyware.
>>739419684So what happens if this kernel level anticheat is ever compromised?
>>739413848PSA: These posts are part of a campaign by tech illiterate corp bootlickers upset that people beside himself don't submit to corporate overreach, do not engage if you value your time
>>739419836Anon, you have multiple third party software with kernel level access installed on your machine right now. Your graphics drivers, for example, have kernel level access. For all of this you are just hoping the developers of it are not interested in doing anything nefarious with it and they're competent enough to prevent any third party bad actors from doing anything nefarious with it.So why are you hyper focused on just this one piece of software? The way I see it there are only two possible explanations. First is you're a degenerate loser cheater yourself pissed off you can't be a degenerate loser cheater is this shitty game anymore. Second is you're a gullible retard who has been tricked into joining the degenerate loser cheater campaign against the thing preventing them from being degenerate loser cheaters.
>>739413090kill yourself cheating cunt
>>739420120I thought this has already happened with cod or something, can't remember.Not even playing singleplayer protected you iirc.
>>739420120The certificate is revoked and it can no longer run. It's happened before.
Cheaters, botters, scammers, and spammers should be executed in their homes, in front of their families, and their families should also be executed if they object.
>>739413183>>739413242>Check postHuh sounds grave>Check riot response >It only bricks specialized $6k cheating HW if it keeps accessing protected memory after a warning and it's reversible if you disconnect it Yawn. Come back with a spicy story about false positives or smoking HW.No, I don't play games with kernel lvl anticheat to start with, this just doesn't seem like it changes anything. It's both just Potential Threat.
>>739419438>>739419147>>739419963>actually wiping device firmware is a completely normal operation that all "GAMING SOFTWARE" are capable of doing>>739420383>hardware that cannot function without hardware code to link to OS's visual pipeline is actually the same thing as a corpo-jewish anticheat that doesn't work half the time operated by a malicious "GAMING" company that brags about having kernel access to fuck with your hw

>>739413848Don't care, still not installing your malware game.

>>739421051>terminally-online faggotsJust like cheaters

>>739421127Actually it's just me replying to myself over and over :)
>playing Riot games>paying for cheats
>>739421072>Noooo let's instead give billionaires the ability to wipe my device firmwareIf all that matters is they're billionaires then again, why aren't concerned about that regarding all the other third party software with kernel level access you have installed? Why do you only have a problem with the one that is designed to stop cheating in video games? I think we both know why.
>>739421156ECK ZACK LEEBonus: You've to be a complete retard to play any multiplayer games.A... COMPLETE... RETARD
>>739413541Enjoy your bricklollmao
>>739421072ok no source lol stay forever mad cheating bitch
>>739421168>i got suckered into installing MULTIPLE kernel-level AC software on my PC, that means everyone else must have, as well... right? wait you all did install kernel-level anticheats from "western" AAA "Gaming" companies funded by saudi billionaires, right?
>>739413090I’ll never install anything that requires kernel level access to play.
>>739421263>no sourcethe source is the story itself you fucking dumb bitch.how do you do a device becomes a "paperweight" if not without wiping hardware code.
>>739420569You're thinking of Genshin. The driver had a vulnerability but was signed so malware brought it, told windows to load it, and then jumped in through the hole it had created
>>739421312Based.
>>739421280I haven't installed it. I don't play shit games. You're the one freaking out he can't play the shitty game because the anti-cheat software is too effective.
>>739413970People say they want this, but it wouldn't work today.Look at how Discord servers/admins are.You would have to kneel and recite some anti-racist creed over the microphone before you could play on the server.
>playing Riot games AND cheatingit doesn't get any more chink/shitskin than that, holy fuck
>>739421326you can't wipe hardware code, what the fuck are you talking aboutnowadays you can even recover your BIOS after a failed update
>>739421326ok so you really cant read, yeah Im thinking suicide might be the way for you. Its a paper weight because iommu wont let you run your system with your dma card plugged in. Hope this helped. Next time actually read the story faggot.
>>739421357tell me what other "3rd party kernel level" devices you have besides the graphics drivers (which are a 2nd party kernel access, considering the integration of nvidia's hw code at OS levell)cant do that? oh, you just made it up like the tech illiterate you are? oh man, i am so surpirsed>>739421445damn, you sound like you have your opsec figured out then. @Grok btw what is a rootkit?>>739421463> wont let you run your systemidk, sounds a lot like it's a paperweight then doesn't it dumb nigger. or do you presume a video card is meant to not be able to operate unless it gets permission from a "GAMING SOFTWARE" you daft fucking knuckle dragging retard bitch

>>739422056I'd give kernel access to a gaming company if the games were good enough, but why would I do that for riotgames

>>739423039You replied to the wrong post? I play the shit out of games with community servers even these days.Having a single point of failure for a game's online ecosystem is a disaster.
>EVERYONE WHO DOESN'T LIKE SPYWARE IS A CHEATER!!>JUST BUY THE $500 SKIN OK?
>>739413848Holy shit why are cheaters such niggers? They were explicitly told that they get banned, that there is anti cheat going on and instead of playing the game properly they rather spend 6 grand on a cheat deviceThey belong in prison
>>739420687I hope they get suedand that all live-service games get shut down
I unironically believe you should need a government issued license to play video games. Before any computer allows you to play a video game you have to scan your license. If you get caught cheating your license is revoked for a period of time. Repeated offenses result in longer and longer revocation periods up to and including life. This license is for ALL video games including single player. Other offenses that may result in revocation of the license include things like installing mods containing illegal content, e.g. cp shit. Circumventing the system results in a prison sentence.
>>739421364community servers always had gay rules and drama but they were rarely enforced on visitors. it was only if you were regularly being annoying that people would start to recognize you and bother to ban you.
>>739420383>Anon, you have multiple third party software with kernel level access installed on your machine right now. Your graphics drivers, for exampleI don't remember my graphics drivers deciding to wipe my BIOS firmware or alter my boot order because it felt like itdie in a fire zhang
>>739423643>I don't remember my graphics drivers deciding to wipe my BIOS firmware or alter my boot order because it felt like itSo far no anti-cheat software has done that either so what's your point?

cheaters been posting a lot since this dropped, i enjoy it but i still hope they all get terminal ass cancer.
>>739413090I do not play games with kernel anticheats for any reason but I have to admit that this whole situation is fucking hilarious.Also it's not bricking anything lol, you just can't use your cheat device in Valorant anymore. Watching cheaters bitch about needing to reinstall windows because they're too stupid to understand how the $6000 cheat devices they bought work or what setting they need to change to make them work again is just the cherry on top.
>>739425689No they didn't they just require iommu now
>>739425902then why would the devs brag they made peoples hardware devices "paperweights"?
>>739425985Holy fuck you're retarded
>>739425985because the device they spend $6000 on to cheat in Valorant no longer works for cheating in Valorant anon, this isn't really all that hard to grasp
>>739426026answer the question>>739426040>for cheating in Valorantso why call it a "paperweight"? why not just say "access to game via XXYYZZ device no longer possible"

>>739426478The root kit isn't new but the cheaters complaining itt show why they are necessary
>this whole threadIf you don't have a separate computer for gaming by now, you're an idiot.
>>739413694Vanguard literally modified the firmware of the device to softlock the system. That is a malicious act and thus makes it malware.
>>739426616>people complaining about a "gaming" company overstepping are all... umm... they're all... ah thank you kikebrain, they're cheaters. simple as.amazing, life must be easy .
>>739426478I'm really sorry your $6000 DMA kit doesn't work anymore anon, you should try asking the manufacturer for a refund,>>739426741All Vanguard did was force an IOMMU check. If the DMA device can't operate with IOMMU enabled that isn't their problem. Not to mention the device isn't even broken anyway, just disable IOMMU again and reboot, it's that easy. The fact that the average mouthbreathing wallhacker doesn't understand how to do that isn't Riot's problem. Go disable IOMMU and cheat in other games anon, that's fine, but please stop making shit up and bitching about it
>>739426760There were no threads complaining about kernel level anti cheat until riot made it incompatible with the 6k cheating device, curious...
>>739426895>I'm really sorry your $6000 DMAsee >>739426760>All Vanguard did was force an IOMMU checkso why are they bragging about making peoples hw devices "paperweights"> If the DMA device can't operate with IOMMU enabled that isn't their problemokay, why does a game company have the means and the authority to adjust kernel level hardware checks
>>739426895I read that it was both IOMMU being enabled and the firmware having some bits flipped.
>>739427002>correlation equals causationamazing, life is so simple for people who willingly install rootkits on their PCs

>>739427031Because the only reason those people bought those devices is to cheat on valorant, its a joke at your expense
>>739427038Given how seemingly retarded every normie PC gamer is these days I'd hazard a guess they fucked up the firmware themselves in a panic.

>>739413456This. The kernal level shit is dodgy as fuck but fuck subhumans who cheat in online games.
Spending $6000 to cheat in a video game should earn you a castration and lobotomy.Distributing malware through your video game should also earn you a castration and lobotomy.Thank you for listening to my TED talk.
>>739413183>indianTechI want them to fucking leave already, the internet is full of them.
>>739427196It's not malware, it just requires you to activate a security feature on your device that also happens to make it incapable to use for cheating in their games
>>739427196That's pretty much how I feel about this whole situation, but it's incredibly funny to watch people get mad about this. I don't touch kernel anticheat games on principle but watching cheaters get absolutely assfucked by said kernel anticheat after they knowingly downloaded and installed it does feel just a little special.
>>739427085>>739427128the only way you can justify holding on to your stance involving defending 3rd party mandated kernel access for a gaming software to operate is flawed to begin wtih because cheaters just find another way and then you are fucked while also being rootkitted you fucking mongoloids. the correct approach is to just have phone number verification for accounts created and an actual fucking appeal process that works in case you do trip up the anti abuse systems running on LLM CS that bans you for saying "ez" but you niggers are happier installing malware on your PC and leaving the policing up to AI oversight
>>739427403No i stopped gaming on PC. im just saying these specific recent threads are made by butthurt thirdies upset their cheating card is now useless
>>739427582if i was you i would stop thinking of the world as a binary "my assumption A equals outcome B therefore me smart" system but then again i'm not a retard who thinks like that.1. no third worlder is buying a 6k USD game toy so they can play with their virtual toy in a different manner 2. people who take issue with tech corporation overreach aren't all made up of a single category like you assume with your retarded thinking, instead people don't want tech companies fucking with your PCs on hardware level on principle for obvious reasons
>>739413183I do that all the time with cheaters. As soon i find one i go to their home and burn it down after i raped everyone in there. Absolutley normal. Destroying peoples life because of unmoralic behavor in a video game.
>>739420687>>It only bricks specialized $6k cheating HWor so they claim, but do you want to gamble your hardware on their system working 100% as intended?
>>739427825Yes but these threads are crying because riot successfully made those cheating cards incompatible kek
>>739427917Yes because it doesn't actually brick anything, just requires you to activate a security feature that makes it impossible to cheat with a $6k pci card

>>739413183The only problem with this is that it doesn't ban all niggers dumb enough to install assfaggots, especially ones with kernel spyware.
>>739428360Not retarded enough to spend 6k to cheat in a video game lmao
>>739414621They want the fake victory, it's retarded, it's stupid, it ruins it for everyone.Only time I'll cheat in a singleplayer vidya is if I don't care or beat it a million times over.Only cheat in MP vidya is friendslop with the boys to help us out or impress them with glitches.
>>739427135PC gaymen have been on some kind of mental decline since at least 2017 IMO, the short of it is that Concord and the ruination of Sony was their monkey paw wish.It's not just the games they begged for that got wiped out from their spending preference for clown casino shooters, the Steam machine will become the next victim.Ignore the obvious irony that they want to by a digital only console for a minute but it won't be supported by any of their most played games because of anti-cheat,cheating that only exists because of their open platform that disproportionately effects they games they play the most. They've made their own feedback loop hellthat'll resist all attempt too shake up the PC market unless they all just abandon Windows and their most profitable genre at once and crash their entire market.
>>739428393redditors are some of the biggest cases of "self-aggrandizing goycattle" you can find. they actually clap like seals for stuff like blizzard suing TWoW and then winning the settlement. they are just the people that float to the top once you stir the pot of all the different categories of progressives that vehemently believe and support everything the elite says or does.>>739428504you still don't get what this is even about. life must be so entertaining for you, basically being a retarded toddler that laughs at keys being jangled.
>>739413183I remember trying to get back into league a few years ago and being told I had to give full access of my PC to their anti-cheat that would monitor it 24/7 and if I opened anything close to Cheat Engine I'd have to restart my whole PC to even be able to launch the game and fucked right off.
This is such fake outrage. Get fucked faggot cheaters. Riot was already using their kernel level anti cheat for as long as Valoshit has been out. Half of CS community is on Faceit anyway which uses kernel level anti cheat and everyone is fine with it. Other games have their own kernel level anti cheat systems.
>>739428653it's about thirdies crying because they wasted 6k to cheat on a video game

Is there another company that has made more money without ever producing a single fun game than Riot?
>>739420687>>It only bricks specialized $6k cheating HW if it keeps accessing protected memory after a warning and it's reversible if you disconnect itThis is technical bullshit. There's not "protected memory" for a DMA device, either it can read stuff or it can't. It hardly causes some crazy glitches because you don't need to write jack to the game's memory for a cheat to operate, just read the memory. The whole point of a DMA device is that it can do it without interfering with the rest of the system's function.
>>739421994That doesn't help them at all because no other pci device wants to sniff dma calls
>>739414621Because i have to fucking win always.
Does this mean I can actually play against real people now and not cheaters?

>>739430514Technically it acts as malicious software and does direct damage to the system, which is illegal in both EU and US. Banning cheaters from your company services is allowed, doing any damage to their hardware is not.

People complain that Valve doesn't add rootkit to your PC but this is the biggest reason they don't.Not only it doesn't help catch cheaters that well, it's an immediate ticking timebomb you've installed on millions of PCs. If a fault in it is discovered, you can be found liable. Class action lawsuit is the worst thing a compnay can face.
haha maybe dont cheat? ;)
>>739430505Riot has a lot more money on it lmao

>>739430876How? Everyone's discussing whether it's moral to brick someone's PC just because they cheated, as usual on /v/ where no one plays video games.
>>739413952>gacha games out of nowhereyou wanna talk about it bro? im here to listen
>>739430752>Valve doesn't add rootkit to your PCBut they did. They install a service that is always running and always has admin access. The reason why they use a service is because that allows privilege escalation without a UAC prompt so you're unaware of it. This is why, for example, Steam is able to scan your entire hard drive without you ever knowing that's happened. Only after the scan has happened do they ask for your consent to send the data. There's been security vulnerabilities discovered in this backdoor Valve has installed.
>>739430802yes but it's relative, for the basement dwellers who produce the cheats it is their entire livelihood, the one thing making them rich, so they will do anything they can to protect itfor Riot it's just one of many million dollar projects
>>739413090I'm not against cheating because i hate games that don't allow you to host your own servers and i want to see em burn.However paying $6000 in a fucking cheating device that sits in the computer is ridiculous, and you deserve to get banned for that.By half that cost you probably can make a machine that literally looks at the screen and change the inputs to make you perfect.
>>739430934No, cheaters and illiterate morons are pushing a narrative that things are getting bricked though.
>>739425420>cleared of trackershuh?
if you're dumb enough to install a game with kernel level malware you deserve it keksorry i'm siding with the billion dollar corporation on this one
>>739430947Is VAC kernel level?
>>739431041>kernel levelMUH KERNEL!!!!!! NOOO MASSA NOT MY KERNEL!!
>>739430947It's interesting how easy it is to spread misinformation just by stating it confidently.
I knew Riot used a lot of astroturfing but I never knew it was this bad as this thread provesThey're literally trying theird hardest to obfuscate exactly why you shouldn't be installing chinese rootkits on your PC because one mistake in them and both cheaters and legit players will suffer the consequences.
>>739431091Yeah but we've known this for ages already. These threads are fueled by outrage from valiant successfully blocking these $6k cheaters tools to which i say: get fucked lol.
>>739431068Anything that runs at admin level has the ability to load kernel level shit for execution.
>pay2cheat on a slop>gets ass fucked for accepting ass fucking termsFaggots deserve that and I will never ever install RIOTslop.
>>739430947>>Valve doesn't add rootkit to your PC>But they did.No they don't lmaoWhy is this whole literal Riot projection? If a security vulnerability was discovered in their anticheat it'd be the worst kind of problem exactly because it's a ring 0 anticheat. It's exactly why most anticheat softwares won't do that.
>>739425842>Also it's not bricking anything lol, you just can't use your cheat device in Valorant anymore.Yeah, it's just Valorant mandating that you have IOMMU active in order to play.
>>739413315I don't think that in this case there could be false positives.It's a literal hardware hacking the memory, and even if you're hit by a cosmic ray or something retarded like this, you get a warning.
>>739431082More like it's easy to make it seem like misinformation is being spread when you're posting anonymously on the internet. You think a person who's willing to spend six grand on a device for cheating at video games won't also cheat at arguments by samefagging?
>>739431208>Anything that runs at admin level has the ability to load kernel level shit for execution.Peak indian tech education shit right there lmaoNo
>>739431261>If a security vulnerability was discovered in their anticheat it'd be the worst kind of problem exactly because it's a ring 0 anticheat. It's exactly why most anticheat softwares won't do that.This is crap.Security vulnerabilities are discovered in ring 0 shit all the time and it's not the end of the world because normally being able to exploit it is not practical.Anti-cheat software does not avoid ring 0 because it's too dangerous for the user. That's complete and utter horseshit. They avoid ring 0 because Microsoft makes you jump through so many hoops to get your software signed. They are very strict about it.
>>739431485Exploiting the ring 0 is a bit hard. but fucking up there and crashing the whole computer and even causing damage there is pretty easy.All the stability gains from 95 to XP to 7 were by banning more and more software from ring 0Not even video drivers are allowed there anymore due that.
>>739413090cant wait to see these retards thrown in prison, butt rape prison for breaking people's things like this
>>739431620>Not even video drivers are allowed there anymore due that.Video drivers still run at kernel level. There's just also a layer above operating at user level. Microsoft basically made a special little eco-system for them because they just really need kernel level but can't have everything about them work at kernel level.
>>739431485Valve has a literal hotline to Microsoft. The fact that if the pajeetsoftware they're peddling blows up in their face will ruin their finances weighs a lot, lot more than the inconvenience of creating and maintaining (which you constantly have to do with anticheat) kernel level software.>Security vulnerabilities are discovered in ring 0 shit all the time and it's not the end of the worldCrowdstrike wasn't even a security vulnerability but just plain old buggy code and it basically paused the banks for a day. Imagine same in end user software and how much expensive lawsuits you're gonna get even if it's not a security vulnerability.
Since the cheat device is canned, I wonder if the same company will make a new cheating device that will cost more than 6k USD.
rioturd mental castration simulators are why all games are heavily moderated locked down troon indoctrination propaganda instead of fun free bants like back in the xbox daysi wish the cheaters the utmost success in ruining as many cancerous games of league of nigger epstein worshippers as possibleif marc merrill was on fire i may piss on him but only on his face (if its not on fire)

>>739431736>Imagine same in end user software and how much expensive lawsuits you're gonna getEULA's include disclaimers limiting liability and they are always upheld by the courts. In your own example Crowdstrike only faced a lawsuit from its shareholders, not the users, and that was dismissed.
>>739431891most based and legendary post of all time
>>739432008>only faced a lawsuit from its shareholders, not the users, and that was dismissed>onlyYou don't understand how bad those are for companies, or you pretend not to. Look at what happened to them after.
>>739431891This. Bring back dedicated servers where some admin has enough time to look at the game to kick the cheaters out. It's that simple.
>>739432113>Look at what happened to them after.They're bigger than ever and their shareprice is double what it was before the outage? Yeah, that was real bad for them. Almost destroyed them.
>>739431716Reading about it seems like it's kinda of a half and half.You write a "miniport driver" with standardized inputs and such, and the whole rest of the video driver must stay on user mode.
>>739413675That's how it works.
>>739432387Then don't play riotslop simple.
>>739413970this post is a truthlear bomb aimed at tel aviv
I hope this is true and becomes standard practice. Either cheaters die or these games die, it's a win either way.
>>739430505Laugh at the cheaters but don't defend the corporation. This is malware
>>739413673are those glitches or regular in game effects
>>739425404neurons go brrrrit's the only way to compete with tiktok
>>739433065So just let cheaters continue getting away with ruining the games for everyone else?
>>739413090I find this hilarious even thought I dont like Riot. People that cheap competative games are all Chinese and Russian so I dont fucking care.Seriously, there are people who spend money to cheat at a free to play game, I put this in the same category of people who pay for OnlyFans when porn is free.
>>739433610No just continue to ban cheaters from the service. They're supposed to already have a sophisticated report/ban system because Riot already record all inputs and audio from players.
>>739433913Which is evidently ineffective against this type of cheater, or this whole thing wouldn't be an issue in the first place.
>>739434091It's not ineffective at all
>>739434091If they managed to kill firmware on cheaters cards then they could as well hardware ban them with the same effect, except they wouldn't get a bad publicity and valid concerns over slippery slop.
>>739413761But you still have the physical medium. You still have the console or the disk So where is the theft? You dont own the 1's and 0's on the medium.
>>739424220See>>739413761The will and drive is there
>>739434212>>739434262Then why would they do it at all if that was the case? It's either necessary, or not true and people just taking a twitter joke at face value.
this has to be the most retarded "controversy"all riot did was make it so those DMA devices won't work specifically in their game, and they gloated "look at all those useless cards"and somehow gamers picked this up as "riot is bricking people's PCs" ??? how?
>>739434212>>739430505
>>739414621have you ever met a cheater? They're usually retarded manchildren or russians/chinks (same thing)They're the type of people who failed at life so now they have compensate it by feeling that hollow thrill of "victory" in videogame form.Isn't it funny how cheating became a much bigger issue once third worldies took over the west in terms of internet users?
>>739434757It's seething cheaters and an online compaign to try and generate enough controversy that Riot will be forced to stop banning cheaters.It's not genuine.
>>739434757>>739434878>>739434882these posts are chinese riot shills
>>739434757riot banned home grown, hard working, authentic, american cheatersit's not right
Riot is based too bad they don't make any good games
>>739434964You are a cheating Turkroach
>>739434964i'm a gamedev, strictly speaking i'd be a competitoryou only need to look into this thing for like 2 seconds to find out all it does is require IOMMU, that is, zoning memory so a random PCIe device cannot access all memory. riot isn't even first to do this: https://support.faceit.com/hc/en-us/articles/19590307650588-Enabling-IOMMU-DMA-Protection
>>739431701It's a literal:>he bought a $6000 cheating device to be able to beat a bunch of 12 year olds, and riot bricked it
>>739413183based
>Spending $6000 to cheat in a video gameSurely this is some form of mental illness?
couple of points to consider>private cheats were historically developed almost exclusively in the Benelux area + Germany, if you came across a good 1.6 or Source private cheat it would most likely be Dutch or German, this is for context as zoomies are clueless>Apex Legends, Valorant, League, PUBG, CS2 and all other similar goyslop are brownoid games (even though League and CS used to be NA / EU games early on)>if you are 25 or older and still play this sort of goyslop you are a failure>the usual line "lol thirdies pirate cause they can't afford games" falls flat when you go "whoa mama they spent $6k to cheat??" make up your mind>Vanguard dashboard tracks all your opened windows, processes, your HWID, your location, email address, screenshots your desktop when the game is tabbed and so on - the amount of unrelated data it gathers is staggering and should not be legalsomeone else made a point that this sets a bad precedent and it is entirely correct, think back to 2010 and you would not believe that you could get perm b& for saying "gg ez" ever, this goes a substantial step further and actually interferes with your hardware, acquiescing and normalizing this will make other ACs follow suit, which in and of itself points towards chink-type control that zoomies seem to be against in these threads
>>739435528Coping third worlder spotted. Don't worry, all you have to do is get a new computer and stop cheating
>>739435368It's a cry for help.
>>739435528>if you are 25 or older and still play this sort of goyslop you are a failureAnd yet you seem unusually invested in what's going with said goyslop. Very curious.
>>739435727>i gonna do some lame poorfag joke instead of reading the thing and realizing that people being affected by this are as mentally sick as CWC
>>739421051news flash, anti cheat devs are just cheaters getting hired.

>>739413090>play predatory MTX riddled slop>cheat like a third worlder>your hardware level cheats get brickedlol, I have no sympathy for you faggots. Fuck riot games for making games that attract these type of degenerates and fuck you third worlders for complaining about the consequences of your own actions
>>739433440theyre abilities. got hit by a bunch of different kind of flashbangs in a row essentially
>>739413970People will just ban you for being better than the admin
>>739413315nah no company should be allowed to do this and putting chinese spyware that gets kernel-level access just for shitty assfaggots or Valorant is the world's easiest "why the fuck would I do that"however that doesn't mean it's not incredibly funny seeing cheaters seethe about their specialized cheating machines get fucked
>>739436381Cheating is needed to force companies into making hosting servers by yourself a thing again, but paying $6000 on a fucking hardware device is mental sickness.You can make an aimbot that look at the screen and move the mouse in a way that can't be detected by a fraction of this price.
>>739413090>Dont cheat>No problems>Cheat>Get fucked, -$6k>Cope by scaremongering the company that banned your ass, making it seem like they are banning people at random and everyone's suddenly in huge danger when in actuality the system has been in place for years now and has worked adequately
>>739414621because their parents failed in raising them properlythe mindset is genuinely "fuck everyone else I deserve to feel good playing my game that I got for me," they genuinely do not give a shit about anyone else they only care about dunking on the enemy and getting their 'wins' because they cannot cope with even the possibility of losing
>>739436762I feel it
>>739413315There are no false positives. It's all cheating chinks and jeets seething. That's what everyone who plays Riot shit deserves anyway, so false positives would be a bonus, if they even existed
>>739436762>playing live-service online multiplayer slop in the first placeyou've already fucked up
>>739435727Are you a burger? if so you aren't human, also I'm whiter than you (could be a weak burn since high chances are you are a mutt a la James Ramirez "but I am 15% Irish">>739435830It's logical error since you cannot go "haha they are poor they can't afford the latest AI blotware GPU" or "haha you pirate because you are poor" and then go "lmaooo $6k to pirate".>>739435798I'm interested in the wider trend of anti-consumer practices. Look at Denuvo where you pay the full price (for unoptimized UE5 garbage with ~8 hours of content) with DRM that tanks your FPS. Game launchers that cannot be sidelined with Steam being the main perpetrator, at least with Epic you can use Legendary to log in, download games and play them online without the client at all, but who in their right minds uses Epic? There's also Early Access games that can stay in dev hell forever or just go straight to abandonware where you already paid the full price. We used to have demo versions, and now? And then you have the ACs like Vanguard.The only way to play online FPS games are dedicated servers and vetted circles of people (which happens at high level play, for casuals server sided AC clients are enough, remember SMAC)?If you played scrims VAC (useless unless you download a spinbot from the first google hit) would be enough. Sure you could also use paid services like ESEA but already back then you had bad actors, see when one dev put a bitcoin miner in the AC client. Now compare this to my initial point about Vanguard - a million times more invasive AC client and you don't see this as a concern?Off on a tangent here but the main point is that this is a part of a wider issue, see a guy above referencing predatory MTX slop, he's absolutely right - now couple this with dark patterns such as gaming ELO to keep you hooked and finally the intrusive AC.
>>739436762>they are banning people at random they are using software, which can have false positivesand this is not just a riot thing, it will soon spread to all multiplayer gamesanyone who defends this is a retard
I'm sure glad Riot is the only anti-cheat company innovating in this space
>>739436762I don't care for riot's shit games and vanguard is in fact actual spyware but watching cheaters piss themselves over this is hilarious, you didn't need any other reasons to not install their shit before none of this is new
>>739437172THIS specific time it sounds reasonable, you get a warning first, and it's detecting very specific memory corruption coming from the DMA.But i personally wouln't ban the person, i would just display pic related and:>he paid $6000 to be able beat with 14 year olds
>>739437362can't afford $6000? poorfag cope
>>739437420can't beat 12 year olds?
>>739437172You are misrepresenting "false positives" as a higher chance than it is.>Bro it totally can false positiveIt's something like 0.01% of detections. Lets put it another way: 99.99% of the time the system works. That's pretty standard uptime for most network backbone network infrastructure. It's not like 30% or by chance it sees a program and it bans you even though you were actually doing legitimate work.
>>739437325The best thing about this debacle is that it shows that ALL kernel level anti-cheats can do the same thing as Vanguard and probably do. EasyAntiCheat? BattleEye? They all have greasy nerds on a computer miles away watching your browser windows, your emails, everything you do while the game runs.

Reminder that the companies that develop cheats also socially engineer pressure on game developers to weaken their anti-cheat systems. Usually by pretending to be non-cheaters caught out unjustly.Just something to consider when you read these threads.

>>739435727>>739435798Patiently waiting for your replies, let me know if you need more time to digest.
>>739437153>you don't see this as a concern?No. If the game is that important to people, they'll accept the small risk, trust the anti-cheat, and get a cleaner game for it. If not they'll just play something else. Everyone gets what they want or feel comfortable with. Unlike Denuvo there is actual benefit for the customers, not just intrusive shit forced upon you exclusively for the sake of the publisher. Slippery slope is not much of an issue either since no one is ever going to care enough about cheating in singleplayer games.

>>739437836Both Capcom and SE would drool over ability to fuck over anyone who mod their games, and a lot of other devs do too, you are thinking way too small if you are only considering slippery slop implications of running cheat engine to give yourself 1b money or something. If you let it slide it can be used to punish anything that goes against corpo will. From single player cheating and mods and bad words in chat.
Riot sold out to China and their games are dogshit, but this is based.Imagine wasting $6k to cheat against kids in Valorant pubs lmfao.
>>739432771thisI just want everyone involved to suffer
>>739437836I tried to explain that the risk isn't small, it hasn't been this large ever. Have you seen the Vanguard dashboard screenshots? It's Stasi level surveillance.I see your point about everyone gets what they want or feel comfortable with but we are talking about games that are mainly marketed towards and actually played by kids, how are they supposed to be aware of anything we have discussed and are discussing? I don't think you can make a volenti non fit iniuria point where the consumer is not notified beforehand about the predatory patterns in MTX and matchmaking and that the AC can see your windows when the game is not even launched. Also, look at proportionality. We are talking about a $6000 device. What's the likely number of cheaters using this, 700? Then ask yourself if 700 retards on the Asian server justifies how far Vanguard is going, nevermind the precedent it sets if this is accepted. You say there is an actual benefit, for how long? There's already proof of concept projects for AI cheats. Once that's rolled out where do you draw the line? From a consumer POV it is getting worse and worse on every front. Yes, if you are a normal person you won't play Valorant or League so this does not concern you. Except it does since the message is clear that they could for example push similar practices to single player games, harvest your data and sell it. See what happened to the GPS data off Pokemon Go.>>739438335Good post brah, upvoted :^) SMAC was very good and would weed out public cheats just fine. No one with private cheats would waste their time clowning on a 24/7 Dust2 32/32 server when there were online tourneys to make some buck off of. I don't expect you to know this since you are a zoomer but maybe something sticks.
