People are getting false perm bans

[XvJormungandrxV]

Just an FYI to anyone reading this the Anti-Cheat for MW2 is picking up software such as Razer synapse 3, Corsair iCue, MSI afterburner, and Logitech G-Hub as "unauthorized software" this also affects several other softwares that act as RGB controllers some of which are preinstalled on the PC by the company that built it.

While not confirmed at this time there is a chance that the preinstalled control software for systems like the Alienware Command Center and the HP Omen Command Center and other PC branded control centers for your computer could also trigger false bans as the also act as RGB controllers.

This is an ongoing situation that Activision/Blizzard has not properly addressed and has led to potentially tens of thousands of bans since the beta released with some people still fighting bans from Activision/Blizzard and Steam to get the bans reversed and to get refunds so I would avoid purchasing/playing this game and possibly other games from Activision/Blizzard until this is resolved as they may start using similar code in the other Anti-Cheats and could lead to further bans.

Thanks, I have Razer synapse and while it's bloatware, it does come in handy occasionally for keybinds or macros. Will avoid until I remove it.

I personally use Razer synapse 3 because i use the Razer Tartarus Pro and unlike my mouse and keyboard it doesnt save profiles and i dont feel like having to change all the controls for every game i play and i agree its mostly bloatware just like iCue and some of the others but there is always 1-2 little features that are useful

I have msi afterburner, logitech hub and corsair icue, no ban.

Seems more excuses of some cheaters.

thats what i tough haha i have asus armoury crate and icue in the background no problems still playing that laggy/crashing game

Using MSI Afterburner several years now, played many games this year who had EAC )Elden Ring, Lost Ark, Vermintide etc.).
Never had a single problem. Never. In any game.

Nontheless, EAC is the worst Anticheat Tool. AAA Devs just want to save €€€.

SAME

I use msi afterburner to overclock my graphics card, logitech ghub for my webcam, mouse (fps mouse), speakers, corsair icue for keyboard, razer synapse for my mmo mouse and guess what no bans here.

Cheaters make so many excuses.

This is maybe the cause for the "disconnected from Steam" crash?

Yeah people there is 0.001% chance you will get “false” banned so don’t turn on your computer because it can explode.

You have paranoia or activision/blizzard lives rent free in your head

Something is really wrong hardware config software if it's too big to fit on a DVD.

Played 4 matches yesterday, 2 hours of gameplay total, turned off the PC and when i opened up the game today i got a network error box with the CASERMA-RHINO message saying that i was permanently banned... Did a quick research on the internet and it says it has something to do with my Router (?????), that`s ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥... Also i have Razer Synapse installed and MSI Afterburner, but it does not look like they were the problem, cause it says ``Network error``. Don`t know what to do...
