Found the first hacker.
Sudoki on the Stratagem game console with 999,999 points, second place is less than 10% of that. (34334)

Edit-
Well I look like an idiot now, see DoPeEffeCt's comment

Funnily enough, I'm wondering even about the 34k one, since that was already there about 7 minutes after the game launched, so that's either suspicious or a dev. But hey, if the cheating happens only on the minigame... *shrug*

The thing is, if there's cheating in the minigame, it means that the Anticheat has already been bypassed. Which means most values can be modified at that point. Aimbots, ESP, etc.

The 999,999 one appeared 5 minutes after the 340,000 one

All anticheat software is "kernel" or "ring o" thats the standart but its also true that cheat software can straith up bypass those.

That's just false. Not all anti-cheat software is kernel level.

VAC runs at the user level. You may have heard of it once or twice.

you missed the point, Vac is a server protection, not a DRM. educate yourself.

Valve Anti-Cheat (VAC) is not primarily a server protection system but rather an anti-cheat software developed by Valve Corporation to detect cheats installed on players' computers in multiplayer games, particularly those using the Steam platform. VAC operates by scanning the users' system for known cheats, modifications, or third-party software that could give players an unfair advantage in multiplayer games. When detected, VAC imposes penalties ranging from temporary bans to permanent bans on offending accounts.

Now, let's talk about DRM (Digital Rights Management). DRM refers to various methods used by content creators or distributors to control the access, distribution, and usage of digital content and devices. DRM systems are implemented to prevent unauthorized copying, sharing, or modification of digital content such as software, games, music, movies, and e-books.

The key difference between Valve Anti-Cheat (VAC) and DRM lies in their purposes and functionalities:

Purpose:
VAC focuses on preventing cheating and maintaining fair gameplay in multiplayer games by detecting and penalizing cheating behavior.
DRM primarily aims to protect digital content and control its distribution by restricting unauthorized access, copying, and sharing.

Functionality:
VAC operates within the context of multiplayer gaming environments, monitoring and detecting cheats installed on players' systems during gameplay.
DRM operates at the level of digital content itself, often requiring validation or authorization processes to access or use the content. It can involve measures like encryption, license keys, activation, or online authentication.

In summary, while both VAC and DRM involve software-based measures aimed at protecting digital content or gaming environments, they serve distinct purposes: VAC targets cheating in multiplayer games, while DRM focuses on controlling access and distribution of digital content.

doesnt matter waht you just wrote, the point is on his dumb comment, that Vac is not a DRM for other studios to buy and slap on their games.
