Anticheat? VAC?

[Mcburnie]

Hey I maybe want to get back into the game but Im still not sure and one of the things that keep it from me are the cheaters. Are there any? Is VAC still enabled an bans simple memory editors like cheat engine? Or is it useless-.

VAC does not work on DD. Memory editors like Cheat Engine wont get you banned by Valve, but if you get reported to Trendy you will be banned from Ranked nonetheless.

Ppl got banned via VAC in the game dungeon defenders, not sure if it would be wise to continue to use it for VAC secure servers / games online

That's because people were using CheatEngine in Dungeon Defenders. Dungeon Defenders is ALWAYS VAC ENABLED. "Open" meant "use our tools to make cool stuff" NOT "cheat as much as you like". They cheated in a VAC enabled multiplayer game. They were then VAC banned.

CheatEngine WILL trigger a VAC ban if used in a VAC enabled game.

My previous post was to illustrate that 'leaving it running in the background' doesn't by itself trigger the VAC ban.

But as Archduke pointed out, cheating in any form is dangerous and has risks. Especially if the 'cheat' you download is actually a keylogger or other such thing. If you cheat, in any game, in any way, you always risk getting VAC banned, even if it's indirectly via an account hijack. Unless the game has built-in cheats, you are always cheating at your own risk.

No clue how true it is, but it is known that VAC bans will be delayed.

And doublepost ftw ...

Dungeon Defenders

VAC is enabled in both Open and Ranked mode. Using cheats or trainers in either mode will result in a VAC ban.

vac is flaky on non valve games but do not take that as you wont get a vac ban
players have been vac banned on dd
most cheats are smart enough not to risk there main account

No cheaters if you play solo, just sayin'

Embrace the way of solitude!

You are the boss of yourself and nobody can tell you what to do, no cheaters.

SOLO FOR LIFE!
