CSGO anti cheat download like esea and faceit

[VectoR]

Once you download the anti cheat you can only play with people with the anti cheat this will be great for new players!

So you think it would be great for new players to be forced to play with cheaters until they either download optional protection or decide the game is just another worthless piece of garbage like 95% of multiplayer games that have been taken over by cheats and hacks.

You might want to consider how your idea could do anything apart from hurt the game before going public with it.

First off, post in the CSGO discussion area, this is for the steam program and website which have nothing to do with the anti-cheat in CSGO

Second, CSGO has anti cheat built in and you can't play without it. If you are found to be cheating you are no longer allowed to play on VAC protected servers.

So here is my regular copy and paste about anti-cheat software....
While below is mainly aimed at VAC, it can be said about any anti-cheat software.

Do you really think that they just sit there saying, "oh we have the perfect way to stop all hackers/cheaters once and for all, but we're just not going to do it cause we're lazy, ohh look at that, more money just rolled in, time to sit back doing nothing again"....

You have no idea how hard it is to stop hackers/cheater.

First Valve has to know about the hack and has to get their hands on it.
Then they have to figure out how it does its thing.
Then they have to figure out how to detect someone using it.
Then they have to figure out how to make sure they don't get any false positives.
Then they make it go active for a few weeks before actually hitting the kill switch.

Even before hitting the waiting time, this could be a few weeks work or more.

Why do they wait a few weeks to hit the kill switch? To get as many cheaters as they can in the net so that once they turn it on, the roaches don't go screaming to people "don't turn on the hack, its been detected".

Now, do you know how easy it is for a cheat maker to change the cheat to make it undetectable? Sometimes its as simple as changing a few lines of code and thats it. Basically a few minutes work, then compile the program, test it, and upload it somewhere.

So if you want to help Valve, stop making posts like this. Look for people spreading urls to websites with hacks and send those urls (for the hacks and hack sites) to steam support. Don't post them in public, just send it to steam support.
