Valve Anti-Cheat (VAC) is still running in user space.
- tapoxi 2y agoAnd is universally hated by CS2 and TF2 players. TF2 has been unplayable for years.
- yamazakiwi 2y agoI have 1000+ hrs in CS and I'm glad VAC exists. I've seen tons of hackers get vac banned, thank goodness. I'm confused...like I know VAC isn't perfect but how does it ruin TF2 specifically?
- Hikikomori 2y agoTF2 is overrun by bots farming hats. CS has always been completely infested at higher ranks like global elite. In both cases VAC is practically useless against any non-userspace hack.
- yamazakiwi 2y agoOh and VAC does nothing about it I see, thanks for your response
- episteme 2y agoIt's not right now, there was a huge banwave and it's been bot free for a couple of months now. If you have any nostalgia for TF2, now is the time to indulge.
- NekkoDroid 2y agoIIRC Overwatch's anti-cheat is also entirely user-space and server-side, and I encounter relativly few cheaters in Master to GM lobbies. Not to say there aren't any (there most certainly are), but there are so few that are noticable that it honestly is negligible IMO.
