Major Update Speculation V31: Gamechanging Edition
5,003 replies, posted
Wait, does the VAC Wave system vac bans people who use Steam Achievement Manager too? Just wondering.
Can't help but laugh as they get abused by people and laughed at whilst their fun gets spoiled.
Karma and irony at its best.
CS:GO also got an update to VAC today.
From the patch notes:
CS:GO VAC Bans and CS:GO Game Bans will be applied to all accounts that share the same phone number. See VAC FAQ ([url]https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=7849-RADZ-6869[/url]) for more details.
Counter-Strike: Global Offensive has a beta feature where accounts with a phone number attached will get matched against other people with a phone number attached. They're testing to see if it'll improve the experience.
I thought it was supposed to be "impossible to detect" lmao box according to the creator :V (Guess someone was wrong)

Get fucking shit on, cunts.[/QUOTE]
"It's a sad day for lmaobox" Now they know how we felt when they would mess with us
I can't believe how many cheaters there were/are. Staggering that so many people revel in spoiling other people's fun.
I'm always zero tolerance. Their existence winds me up more than when they kill me.
This is a nice birthday gift for Archonet :)

The only thing ill miss about the cheaters being gone is never getting to see Sniper aimbot in MvM.
More hackers should have helped people on MvM just to change it up.
I wonder if the steam forums are going to be like Facepunch's Rust section with a bunch of little shits going "Pls Gabe I didn't hack wy did I get vac Banned?????"
Wait does this mean they'll go easy on sv_pure?
With Lmaobox out of the way they'll probably find someway to prevent Exploit Packs

I don't even agree with him but I don't want to argue and ruin the moment.

Max Box had a special developer version of the LMAOBOX loader with debug tools and gave it to Valve. That's how they detected it.

Today was a bitersweet day. On the bright side, lmaobox got discontinued.
On the other hand, I got banned after i tested lmaobox on a listen comp server with bots.
Oh well. Just deserts.
Now all we need is Valve to release a witty blog post with some quickly made SFM picture about what they've done to the pesky hackers and the moment will be complete.
Here's a spreadsheet of all the roster drops that occured due to the ban wave:

never imagined there were cheaters in comp. guess my respect for leagues blinded me.

cheating in CSGO is pretty huge

It's not uncommon. We actually had a guy tryout for our team last season that had a history with cheating, and the only reason we didn't say anything about it when he was trying out was because he was trying out for Demoman and his history was with aimbots.

That sucks man. As the saying goes curiosity killed the cat.
At least its done for good now.

Projectile aimbots actually do exist. Instead of just calculating if you are in a line of sight, it takes physics to calculate where you will end up so that it nails the projectile where you will be rather than where you are.
Oh god, this makes me so happy. The main reason I stopped playing with competitive was because of this one shithead who was probably the most horrible person I've ever met was hacking in a game and even specifically selling his hacks to parties so that they could rank up quicker. Glad the see that the fuck is gonna finally get shit on, maybe I'll even come back into testing out competitive.
This is actually amazing. Perhaps when the next major update comes out I might get back into tf2

yeah though at this point you might aswell get better results with heavy or sniper
so much justice
this is just incredible
[QUOTE=Hell-met;50228561]yeah though at this point you might aswell get better results with heavy or sniper[/QUOTE]
My point was more that just because aimbots work better with hitscan, does not mean that an aimbotter going demoman is suddenly not capable of aimbotting even while lacking hitscan.
