Deadlock from Valve has an amusing new anti-cheat system turning cheaters into frogs
28 Sep 2024 at 6:36 am UTC

Quoting: hell0I'm wondering whether their cheat detection is server side. Some wording let me think it might be: "detection levels", "turn on the banning of users in a couple of days after the update".

I believe Valve would be the first big company to attempt it, and it could be huge if they do it properly.
VAC has always been server side and there are many other anticheat that are server side on some level

I'll have to try experimental, but my only real issue is the stutter when moving the mouse
Whelp stutter is largely fixed with experimental, but I still suffer from the "black void" issue, making it unplayable.

Team Fortress 2 gets a Summer Event Update, new comic on the way

Quoting: scaineHow are 100K people still playing this? Or are the numbers actually a true-er reflection of just bad the bot problem has actually become?
After Valve did their big bot purge earlier this month multiple people have been reporting playing for hours without a single bot in sight since then, so this seems like actual human numbers (probably with a bump from the summer event; I might hop back in myself). :smile:

As to how, well, it's a great game with staying power (so you've got the people who've been playing for a decade or more) and it's been around long enough to have new gamers get older and discover it for the first time.
Wow, so they've done something ? I might have to reinstall it then.
