        Counter strike is literally one of the single most cheated in fps on earth. Only tarkov has more cheaters… Lol

        You couldn’t have chosen a worse example even if you tried.

        Edit: The downvotes just show how disconnected the userbase here is. I’ll bet none of you have touched cs in a decade.

            VAC doesnt immediately ban when a cheat is detected, It delays the ban to make it harder for cheat makers to figure out what, when, how, and why it was detected.

              And? It still detects the cheats and bans the users. And it does it without kernel-level anti-cheat.

              The delay isn’t a limitation, it’s a design decision to prevent reverse engineering, as you’ve point out. Yet that didn’t stop you from falsely alluding that it’s not capable

                Why the fuck you going at me with both guns drawn when all I did was explain, factually and neutrally, about how VAC works and why you see bans happen in waves instead of in the moment?
