@riotgames Cheaters in the comments thinking if they spin this hard enough they’re roll it back

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.

@riotgames How I’m sleeping tonight after reading all the angry comments.

congrats to the owners of a brand new $6k paperweight

@AversionsCrown @DANNYonPC It’s not an issue. It was already explained to him on another post. He’s just farming yall. Or he has the reading comprehension of a third grader.

@DANNYonPC Probably just bricks the hardware level cheat device, if that's the case, I don't think it's as big of an issue

Wait so riot can brick your hardware via their anti cheat? Sounds illegal

@mixmastamike23 @ScottageeCheese Lucky. I have Xbox and PC. No avoiding the cheaters for me.

@GetDeadKid @ScottageeCheese I just loved DMZ. Still play it (crossplay off).

I just can’t get past what we dealt with for MW2…. Until Infinity Ward shows that they’ve learned from their mistakes, i’m expecting the worst with this CoD

@mixmastamike23 @ScottageeCheese Most people liked it. Ignore the loud 1% online that no one cares about. Was it a great game? No. But it was so damn fun. More fun than any other recent COD.

@ScottageeCheese I liked MW2

@CODWarfareForum We’ve known all week where they were going.

Inkslasher and Swagg both wearing the same yellow wrist band... Guess we know what that is

@CODWarfareForum @InfinityWard One thing I’ve always admired about IW is that they don’t pander to players or read feedback like the other studios. They make the game exactly how they want and allow you to play it. So it’s funny to see them lie to our face.

Not sure I believe this, you've never been like this and never cared what the players think before @InfinityWard Make me believe you and open coms.

@CODWarfareForum Maybe one day they’ll fix the damn PC gamepass cheaters from being in Xbox console only lobbies sometimes this decade.

Doesn't seem to be any thing to the MW19 update, in regards to MW4.

@PlayCODMobile Old Skins from MW2022 that only cost $20 while coming with 3 legendary weapons and a custom execution. Now being re released for $100+ on Mobile 😂😂😂

What is that in Special Ops 1’s glasses!?

@METAPCs The comments let you know exactly who doesn’t play competitive games.

Would you rather game at: A) 360 FPS, everything on low B) 75 FPS, every setting maxed

@BeaniesXO @JonReflex Ok you win. Now they’re actually saying there’s an overhaul. That first message didn’t say shit.

@GetDeadKid @JonReflex But the system now won’t be so skewed. It’ll have more ppl in their correct ranks so the hardstuck players will actually know they are hardstuck instead of the system fucking them over.

The hardstuck diamonds are gonna hate this but this is the best thing I’ve ever heard

@BeaniesXO @JonReflex I agree. But it’s not changing anything or making “hard stuck players hate this” it’s just stating more transparency, visibility and explaining SR gains/losses

@GetDeadKid @JonReflex The hidden mmr system was the biggest problem with ranked after cheaters. This is a HUGE change

@DETONATEDcom All that and forgets to say Carry Forward.

My Wishlist for Grand Theft Auto 6 😍 💥 Battle Royale Mode 💥 Shipment, Nuketown, or Stakeout 💥 Mastery Camo Grind 💥 Battle Pass + Blackcell 💥 Crossovers 💥 Bundle Store I believe I got everything!

@justblacksawss @brotherhoodcree @BattlefieldInte Yeah I see it now. I’m blind.

@GetDeadKid @brotherhoodcree @BattlefieldInte New battle pass skin sir. Check out the end of the pass to find it basically the lvl 100 skin for szn 3

Be honest… which one has the better tactical drip? 🎯 RT for Battlefield 🔁 | Like for BO6 ❤️ #Battlefield VS #CallOfDuty

@SnapBlastPLAY @cdj_83 Brother there’s no kids on Nintendo anymore. It’s all 40 year old white guys that look like they wait in line for limited time popcorn buckets at Disneyland. If you don’t believe me check YT. It’s all Disney Adult looking mfkrs.

@cdj_83 🟢 Xbox - Adults 🔵 PlayStation - Teenagers 🔴 Nintendo - Kids

What is the RIGHT placement of thumb sticks, symmetrical or offset? 🔵 PlayStation 🟢 Xbox

@SnapBlastPLAY There’s only one right answer if you’re a competitive fps player.

@brotherhoodcree @BattlefieldInte Is that even a bf6 skin? I haven’t seen it in game yet

@BattlefieldInte BF6 did it better. He actually have a vest on

@MelancholyyyAim The netcode is next level broken in this game. You don’t just die around corners.. You die like 10 feet around corners.

BF6 is at its worst state right now, if you thought about trying season 3 don’t lmao 🤣

@charlieINTEL If those aren’t full size thumbsticks don’t bother. Take it from someone who’s tried all the cloud gaming /handhelds etc. every time something doesn’t have a full-size thumbsticks your aim and everything will feel like shit

Xbox is working on a new controller specifically for Xbox Cloud Gaming Images of the controller have leaked via the Brazilian regulators [via Tecnoblog]
