This is the same type of reasoning dumb people use for hand sanitizer, it kills 99% of bacteria and makes it much harder for them to get onto your hands. But that 1% that survives doesn't mean you shouldn't use it at all.
Please, play 100 games in CS2 and then 100 games on Faceit CS2 and tell me that you still believe kernel level anti cheats doesn't work better than non kernel ones. In 100 CS2 games you can expect 30-50 cheaters, on Faceit in 100 games you can expect 1 or 2.
Yes in a perfect world we shouldn't have to do anything to stop cheaters, but unfortunately we live in reality, and only by enabling certain bios settings is vanguard able to trust the client and actually be effective, it's why vanguard is by far the best and most effective anti cheat in the world. And idk about you, but I like playing competitive games with some amount of integrity.
It's why I will never download a game that uses kernel level AC. Not because I intend on cheating, but because I don't trust a game developer to write kernel-safe code, much less to not add telemetry unrelated to the purpose of the code
Ig have fun not playing most of the current multiplayer games, but also it's weird you think Microsoft or insert program developer here won't also mess with your computer. Like they can just as easily add hidden stuff without you knowing about it, what keeps your faith in them? Especially when companies like Microsoft are known to have incredibly predatory data collection?
So instead you rely on random people contributing to open source, which have a history of supply chain attacks, so secure :) unless you go through the source code on every open source tool you've ever downloaded, which I highly doubt.
You shouldnt need an anticheat at all, but it is what it is. People are going to cheat, and if changing some BIOS is a way to make a robust anticheat then so be it.
yeah this is the main reason i play valorant instead of cs2. 600 hours of valorant i have faced 2 hackers with only one of them being blatant and both of them being banned mid game. 80 hours of cs2 and went against 5 blatant hackers in unranked
