HolisticStorm Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 What is your opinion on anti-cheat programs like BattlEye or VAC? I think that they are a necessary evil, but it troubles me that they are becoming more invasive and seem to be detecting things that are not cheats (e.g. virtualization). The manufacturers also refuse to admit that there could be false positives because they want to sell their products. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrik Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 never had any issue with VAC so far to be honest and it seems like it's doing more than its job, BattlEye yeah since it's not included in the games store (like VAC in steam for example) which means, it can be unaccurate sometimes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 (edited) Is this only online gaming where this is an issue? Because I haven't encountered anything like this, and honestly until now, had never heard of VAC or BattlEye.

I don't know about others. I too had played Counter strike: global offensive, and I guess it also used VAC anti cheat system. I had no issues with it. I earlier played Tom Clancy's Ghost recon, which uses battleeye, I never had any issues with that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn, Counter Strike is a very interesting one, although I didn't get to play it much but the little time I had with it, I did enjoyed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I genuinely played it extensively on my PC. It was one of my favourite MMO games after my college days were over. But later, when PUBG was released in our country, I shifted to PUBG which is much more fun than CS:GO. Edited July 21, 2021 by Razor1911 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely, it's going to be PUGB first for anyone who played Counter Strike initially because PUGB is way more better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. The gaming features are much better and controls are very friendly in PUBG. And it's PUBG not PUGB, it's an abbreviation for PlayerUnknown's BattleGround. 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 people will bypass anti cheat even with a kernel based one, there was hacks made during the beta of valorant. There also a issues because of vanguard, can't play on vm, Linux and mac users can't play, cloud gaming can not be used and the backlash it got at the start. So i don't think they will have an anticheat like vanguard main reason being windows only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
