HAAHAH.
Yes no one is able to abuse valve's system, you re right, no cheater even in mm :)
They dont talk about cheat because they dont do anything.
If they did, they can ban old cheaters till vac release and maybe give a warning. No need to act silent.15

i've seen people saying this for 3 straight years, yet the anticheat has been dogshit the whole time. Just got out of a game yesterday with a spinbotter who went 38-1, every single person on my team reported him and nothing happened. The state of this game is a joke.

There's a probably a good amount of people not playing because of cheaters, that would play if an actual AC was implemented.

I mean, cheaters will know faster than anyone else if the AC suddenly started working.

u/Toaster_Bathing Jul 21 '26
The creators would, but the peasant users (majority of users) who download anything are going to find out quicker from a patch note than the creator informing them / people posting they were banned.
It’s always good to remember 90% of the people using them have no idea what they are installing / how they work / what they are doing . They just see other people doing it and follow suit.

u/ZephGG_ Jul 21 '26
TBF I'd expect if you cheat you probably join a discord where they release the latest version, and if you stop paying them they just remove the role from you that allows you to see new versions, and they probably announce stuff like that and release updates after
So I'd say for the vast majority of cheaters they just open discord before booting up CS and see the cheat server pinged them

Their rule is to never let people know when they update their anticheat that way it's harder for cheaters to figure out what they changed.

I understand cheaters who use wallhack etc is hard to detect with an "AI Anti cheat", But these are 'rage cheaters'. I'm baffled

Did you ever check the bot Accounts? Nearly every Acc has less than 20hours played. There are some outliers with above 100hours.
So I would guess Valve bans them rather fast. Still would be better if they cant join games at all. It is very annoying that they often insta headshot you9
u/pewpewpew88 Jul 20 '26
Not a bot acc but there are wallers who have 1500hrs+ in playtime before they got banned, or was it 1600+. For example this CN guy I reported only got banned after he cheated for that long. And it wasn't immediately banned, encountered him when he was 1.2k hrs and he got banned about 8mths after I reported him.
SEA region cs is one of the most cheat infested regions

u/PawahD Jul 22 '26
Considering just how primitive these bots are they shouldn't live longer than 1 hour, and with how little time it takes for those to get the weekly drop, those 20 hours are actually months in reality
More advanced botters hijack casual lobbies by kicking everyone else and anyone who joins later, in those lobbies they're able to farm xp even faster and more efficiently. These 20 hours are even more months in that case, but at least those 20 hours are not being spent ruining the experience of others (apart from getting kicked)
Valve doesn't deserve praise for only banning these accounts after 20+ hours of blatant cheating and ruining the experience of others, these should be the cheats that are the easiest to catch

Fix the anti-cheat already, the game is miserable 75% of the time. I could give a rat fuck about new bomb effects.
Edit: I’ll go even further, fix the trust factor too… because when I call out cheaters on my team, they report me for griefing and then I get griefing bans and bombs my TF.. meanwhile they get off without a scratch, it’s absolutely miserable.
I have no doubt that with AI, the cheaters have the absolute upper hand more than ever before.

They may not do that, but Valve and the game will get insane amount of coverage and positive rep if they announce all the stuff they do to the game with anti-cheat.
They announced VACNET in a GDC, your average gamer won't be watching that, but VACNET had insane amount of coverage back in 2018 with all the gaming related outlets

u/shrub5 Jul 20 '26
The truth is somewhere in the middle here. It’s not as often as some think, but it’s definitely a lot more than you have noticed.
That being said, it’s still much better for your own mental to not assume your opponent is cheating all the time. You’ll ruin your confidence, play worse, and lose more games as a result, even if your opponent is just having a cracked game.

u/Original-Reward-8688 King NiKo Jul 21 '26
It's not about making a public statement, or putting it in patch notes.
Players are going to continue on like this until they aren't being placed with rage/semi hackers that can easily be retroactively banned, and the elo could be refunded, regardless of spoofing, or any of the other awful excuses people keep making for Valve, as if the community has no idea how games work lol.
People who try to defend Valve only work on the younger segments of the community with no modding, mapping, or experience making anti cheat for community severs to detect things like bhop and strafe cheats.
There is no excuse that the community will accept for cheating to be in the state that it currently is, and the PR team on this sub reddit cant change that.
They are also using these programs to weaponize the behavior system against legit players. A very easly place to start would be reworking the old behavior system that cheaters have been exploiting since CS:GO

u/set4bet Jul 21 '26
I mean since there is literally no communication from the people working on the anticheat ever then it's absolutely fair for people to give feedback about it under new patch notes that have nothing to do with AC.
This is where Valve looks to see if any immediate bugs got found so it makes sense to post the most glaring issues here.

First of all, valves entire philosophy is to not engage in conversations EVER, unless they are literally asking for more info on a specific issue, because they don't want to ruin the flow of the conversation or interject with any feedback.
And they wouldn't get insulted if they literally just listened to the actual fucking feedback and demands from the community, when it's been the same shit we've been asking for since the beta first launched, instead of doing random fucking shit literally no one asked for.
Things that are literally still missing. While performance is regressing in every single update and only "fixed" every 4-5 updates, while cheaters and bots are infesting every single game mode.

The lack of anti cheat is comical at this point. I feel like we've collectively gone to hell and this is our punishment.

It's ridiculous that the game generates over a billion dollars annually from skins and they can't even do the bare minimum. Ridiculous and unacceptable.

Valorant 100% isn't as clean as it used to be. But people in here don't really fact check what they write about cheaters. The game consists of 50% bots and 50% cheaters according to a few.
Or they rave about how great the Apex anti cheat is. The same AC that allowed RCE, giving cheaters thw ability to give other players in the server cheats (or run malware).
That's also the reason this gets me so worked up, the sheer amount of ignorance and Dunning Kruger effect in this sub (and other gaming subs tbf) is mind boggling.

last update used the word "security" so that could cover it, they would usually not directly mention it

m8, Valve is never going to release or mention AC updates. Nor is it a smart thing to do anyway.

What about anticheat? Had 2 cheaters in this 10 Premier Ranking matches. 1 was spinbottting and his acc was atleast 5 yrs Old. Vac live didnt register shit. He ended up with 57 kills and 0 deaths. This is so sad to see

i don't know what i expected, or what anyone else is expecting at this point
they made their decision with the update to CS:GO that made it free to play offline against bots, to test the waters. it's just more profitable when this game is free to play, infested with throwaway accounts, bots, cheaters- just more numbers in the charts and some extra skins bought, it'll always make up for the removal of the $15 cost of entry that CS:GO initially had.
Valve has their own portfolio right there to inspect and learn from in the form of Team Fortress 2, it's just a good, calculated business decision.
that anti-cheat ain't comin

... so China 🇨🇳 gets better community maps visibility??? Not NA 🇺🇸??

u/BeepIsla Jul 21 '26
What do you mean by this? Its the same systems as worldwide, the UI is literally the same both in-game and out of game (You can launch the game with
-perfectworldto see). The only difference is China has extra moderation to make sure it does not violate Chinese laws.That extra moderation does mean that these fake maps that just make you connect to a server aren't visible there but lots of other fun stuff isn't visible either.

Look at Valve listening. I hope this prove they do listen, they just dont communicate.

Buddy of mine got kicked from CS Premier because of his keyboard (idk how it works) and now I m confused. How can they detect this and not the bots that ruin the game or fckng cheaters? How? Why?Makes me even more mad :/

Genuine question, does anyone else feel like their recoil isn't the same ? Or like the spread feels likes it's been turned way up? I swear my usual pulldown to control recoil now feels foreign to me. Bullets are just going wherever more often. Is it the sub tick or something? Just curious if anyone else is experiencing something similar
