yeah… good try… but no… EAC does not load any kind of drivers on your system… and if it piggy backs the OS kernel… I don’t see how the fuck it doesnt get flagged as a virus
About macros
You know what a kernel-based anti-cheat is right? That’s the whole reason behind the uproar about it, it’s invasive. EAC is installed alongside the game and does not operate at the user level. When you gave the game permission to install you did the same for anticheat’s kernel drivers.
Like a trainer.exe thing right? Basically you launch it prior or after the launch of the application and this modifies values of your game by editing values in your OS registry to give you infinite health or 999999 ammo. Or something,right?
The anti-cheat of old did not have the capabilities to detect cheats, scripts etc that operated at a higher privilege level than the anti-cheat had.
Since cheating became kernel-based, so did anti-cheats.
Cheats aren’t basic user executables anymore and haven’t been for awhile in any game that takes cheating seriously. And any game that takes cheating seriously tries to hire the cheaters because once they start developing hardware hacks and DMA scripts you’re screwed when it comes to detecting that.
Only other option is to give the client basically no privileges at all and run the whole game serverside but that impacts performance & doesn’t stop botting or manipulating/mimicking player inputs.

I already think PHG does a great job on curbing hardware based cheats. Kernal based cheats, Im beginning to think that most of that data is server side and like you said, this gives clients no privilidges. Which means all our user data including V,xp, loadout,etc, are on the server. This gives the devs a better way to diagnose hacking be seeing the data in detail.
I doesn’t matter whose doing it, what matters that they are developing limits in which it won’t be easy to do again.
I dont mind this so long as the company stays in business.
PHG is already limiting alot of what macros can do and they as developers have already acknowledged the use of it on the netgun and modified it.
I feel people using macros are just utilizing everything available to them on the hardware they buy. There is nothing wrong with that. What is wrong, is devs not making necessary changes to limit its effectiveness.
Because if they don’t it ruins peoples experiences if they play exclusive with someone who uses it, or uses it themselves.
No pardon me, not ruin, but spoils.
Probably the best post you’ve ever made but this is also the reason the networking in this game is buggy as hell, claims freeze, tree mounts fail at random, hit detection is absolutely garbage and you get shot through walls.
Serversiding is pretty bad for shooters at our current level of technology.
Limiting the effectiveness of macros is a valid concern for any game with semiautos (also ruins semi-autos for people that just enjoy clicky guns) yet in the same vein they have no method of reliably stopping botting or scripting to push buttons in sequence other than manual investigations. Hardware cheats and motion detectors you just plug into your PCIe port like peripherals are the new trendy thing and probably will be forever. If I buy a PCIe mod to give me aim assist on PC is that cheating? What if its not dialed all the way to a full on aimbot and just corrects my shots for me? Where do you draw the line? Cheaters innovate faster than anticheat can. Manipulation of player inputs is manipulation of player inputs.
PCIe is some sophisticated shit for a bunch of halfass mountain boys. LOL
I can neither confirm or deny this data affects game play like how you say.
Obviously they aren’t the same, today’s patch showed that Illfonic thought you were using an exploit by meleeing through the walls so they removed the exploit from the game.
Why use macros when you can do this?

also noticed each parry takes away 2 points of health aside from draining your stamina (I was running scout with iron lungs so my stamina regenerates pretty fast)
Bruh just cut cross play OFF tryna ride the PC wave and now u salty af?!
Can still melee through thin walls and shacks. More like they’d rather you caster through walls. By that logic you were exploiting by crouching because both collision and hitboxes ingame suck ass.
Oh yeah on the topic of discord.
“Will dead counselors be able to talk to the survivors?”
“No, not at all. You are cut off and that’s cheating.”
“Here’s looking at you, PC players. Stay off TS and shit, for serial”
Not that they can do shit about it but there you go, proximity chat in video games for dummies.
They must of forgot about psn parties.
This ones kinda stupid.
If in game chat didnt sound like shit in almost every game then ppl would use it.

Yeah the guy also asked about disabling xbox parties and such and got glossed over. Not new news at all though they can’t enforce it either way but you get the principal.
it makes absolutely no sense specially in military games where irl you have comm headsets that allow you to talk to your team miles apart. even more when there are character customization items that even reflect devices which allow you to do it.
the proximity chat is bullshit and adds no real life experience. you are not there out in the field screaming to each other… never… that is just hollywood stuff
I love this dismay, I wanna incite some violence!
LETTSS GOOOOOOOOO
izabela is the best! she grinds on the predator! add macro, ambiot, put hek in the game, otherwise BaBass will make dust.
