At least valve is tracking this issue and can reverse VAC bans. This isn’t as irreparable as it seems.
Ah… I still remember when they were adamant that VAC would never issue any false positives, even in the face of so many clear false positives reports due to a bug in one of the COD games.
To be fair, it seems that AMD is intercepting, modifying, and injecting code. That’s not a false positive, that VAC working as intended.
What’s wild is that AMD didn’t have a conversation with Valve before releasing this. You can’t go messing with someone else’s code, particularly in such a highly competitive game, and not expect to screw some things up for players.
If there’s one thing I’ve learned after years of using AMD stuff, is that they’re unbelievably incompetent, that or just straight up lazy. If Nvidia wasn’t so scummy and expensive I’d make the jump and never look back ever again.
