Even if I’d ever switched back to Windows, no kernel anti-cheat would ever be allowed without some kind of isolation. It is just another data theft tool that happens to also include half-broken anti-cheat. I’m sure gaming companies have already started selling data for profit.
Oh, something about a game that doesn’t work on Linux. What are the most direct competitors to Valorant that work on Linux? I’m gonna go play those out of spite.
This is why kernel level anti cheat and every variant of it include the tpm ones should be discouraged. Performance Hits are huge too in case of denuvo
Send it to me, I consider a processor incapable of playing Valorant to be a free upgrade
valorant is the facebook of games. only boomers blithly ok with human right violations linked to the socials they use would think it is a good idea to stick with it
Ah classic Riot games, investing all the money in anti-cheat while their launcher lacks basic functions like “download throttling”.
No idea how Steam keeps winning…
This is so dumb. as if there was no reasonable way to detect cheating without these super invasive anti-cheat monstrocities.
not a big cookie eater so no thx
That’s a whole lot of bullshit just to start a game. Pass.
Meanwhile I play(ed) on a VM and would frequently have to fight with support over: no, fuck you - unban me. Virtual hardware isn’t a valid reason to ban every few months. It worked. It was bothersome - so I quit playing. Ample free time for games that weren’t user hostile.
I’m surprised the kernel anticheat didn’t autoban you right away starting the game
Slightly different time and I was using some methods that made it more difficult to determine it waa a VM. Purely guessing - but based on timing it seemed like I wasnt over a threshold - so manual review was used and that wasn’t as fast or frequent.
Wow, that sucks. I don’t even know if you could get your money back for the CPU in that case, as the seller could just claim it wasn’t him. Doesn’t sound like Riot is being that cooperative in such cases either.
The odds of this happening are so low, but at the same inevitable.
Funny. Sucks for the buyer.
I just quit gaming. I refuse to be a beta. I don’t give a fuck no more. After Holocaust 2.0 these types of things bring me no joy. Grow up
