Well, that escalated quickly.
There’s been a wave of claims by cheaters about Vanguard “bricking” their PCs, so let’s clear that up: Vanguard does not damage hardware or disable your devices.
The photo we posted is a picture of cheat hardware devices that are sold explicitly for cheating in VALORANT (not normal PCs or PC components). Through our latest updates, Vanguard now makes those devices worthless for VAL, but does not in any way brick PCs or PC components or PC software.
Our latest update enforces standard platform security features, like the Input-Output Memory Management Unit (IOMMU), on accounts identified as using Direct Memory Access (DMA) cheating devices. These protections are already part of modern systems and when enabled, they block DMA cheat devices (such as those shown in the photo) from accessing memory in downstream applications, like our games.
If a cheat setup continues attempting to cheat after those protections are enabled, the system may generate hardware faults or instability. This is expected behavior under IOMMU when attempts are made to read protected memory.
Disabling IOMMU allows the cheat device to function again, but IOMMU will still be required to play our games. This means the cheat device won’t work with our games, but your PC isn’t “bricked.” We would not, and cannot, impact your PC’s functionality in any other fashion.
This functionality only applies to systems attempting to use DMA cheat devices, and players who are not using DMA-based cheat setups are not affected.
We’ll keep investing in anti-cheat to protect competitive integrity, and we’ll keep being as transparent as possible about how those systems work.
@mordoreku@deqextwt@speakluve@GrantH556692@baby__frog@riotgames HOLY FUCK BECAUSE DMA CARDS ARE USED TO READ THE MEMORY IN THE GAME, RIOT IS JUST MAKING SURE THAT YOU CANT READ THE MEMORY OF THE GAME USING THE CARD WHICH THEY LITERALLLY HAVE THE RIGHT TO DO SO, not letting the dma card read the games memory leads to no cheating
@Fortniterwoooo@deqextwt@speakluve@GrantH556692@baby__frog@riotgames You’re just a moron. You’re just a corporate trained, obedient goy. This isn’t about cheaters it’s about the abuse of power and the betrayal of users’ trust. There should be no tolerance for a system within the game that influences your equipment in any way.
@mordoreku@deqextwt@speakluve@GrantH556692@baby__frog@riotgames Lmfao what a retard you are cant comprehend simple rudimentary logic, this has nothing to do with glazing corporate whatever the fuck, im just merely explaining that theyree just disabling a card thats meant for cheating, you still havent explained how its abuse of power?
@mordoreku@deqextwt@speakluve@GrantH556692@baby__frog@riotgames What the fuck do u mean "It shouldnt happen at all" what the fuck is even your point here ive debunked whatever bullshit you spewd out, theres no bricking AND you can STILL use the card in other games is that so hard to comprehend?
@mordoreku@deqextwt@speakluve@GrantH556692@baby__frog@riotgames AND THE FACT THAT THIS PNLY AFFECTS CHEATERS WHO USES DMA WHICH BTW ARE BARELY EVEN 1% OF VALORANTS PLAYER COUNT, if youre this mad about a cheating card maybe you should just get better and stop cheating buddy
