VAC works perfectly fine for a mediocre non intrusive anti-cheat client.

Counter-Strike Go now free to play, adds Battle Royale mode
- Thread starter XSX
- Start date
Oh yeah for sure. And I'm sure that is intentional on Valve's part to drag in those that have worked that out
So you can pay yourself into Prime now? That's really stupid. It used to be so that you had to verify a phone number to become Prime to prevent cheaters from using alts.
Prepare for more cheaters.

It isn't finding any games for me.
The UI and UX of CSGO has been dramatically improved since last I played though, impressive.

This might be a Battle Royale I actually want to play (and I wasn't even that into CS to begin with). More functional than Plunkbat, more solid gun-play than Fortnite, smaller scale and quicker pace than either... All that sounds good to me! Gonna give it a shot tonight.
Watching streams and getting kind of hyped, this might be the short burst BR I've been waiting for.
You're joking right? You do understand the lengths their AC goes into scanning your PC, it's at most a lowlevel kernel anti-cheat. Nearly every cheat on the market for CS and VAC games, need to be ring0 which basically means get kernel access to bypass VAC. Sure you can cheat with VAC on but you're gonna get banned.
Prime status literally meant nothing.
Free users are only in matchmaking with other free users until they either pay $15 or hit rank 21 (and have a valid phone # attached to their Steam account). Valve is assuming that cheaters will be caught before then. Sure will suck for free players, though!
So VAC is good against shitty free cheats but anything that cost money will go undetected for months/years.
Not too many people out there using free cheats still man, it's 2018. CS MM has been unplayable at higher ranks pretty much since it came out, VAC doesn't do a fucking thing against most of the paid cheats. Anyone at LEM or above really ought to be using ESEA, but it's pretty sad that you need to pay a monthly fee to enjoy a game you already paid for.
Played a game, came second .... yeah its a small scale BR with CS GO mechanics ..... as expected really.
Valve map design + BR = oh my
It's not a trivial piece of work...

Almost every LoL and DOTA tournament gets them past Fortnite for the day.Not that CS:GO needed help on Twitch, but it's the first time in a while that I've seen something pass up Fornite recently, even if it's only temporary.
I'm a sucker for source engine games, but I'm no CS player so I doubt I'll hang around for long.
Can't they just attach the entire Half Life 2 areas together and use that for the map lol. That would be amazing.

I've only played a few solo games so far but the late game seems extremely unfun so far, I don't see a reason not to just hide until another player needs to buy ammo or health then get an extremely easy kill on them. I see they wanted to go risk reward on the supply drop thing but it's pretty much certain death, and with how sparse the map is with helpful shit you pretty much have to call one in at some point
I did get a cool axe kill though and it's' probably a lot better with 1 or 2 friends

The title kept me confused for a moment, I thought it was going to be a mobile CS port or something.
I mean, people always say Counter Strike Global Offensive, or CS:GO.
Never Counter Strike Go.

That says that if you pay into it, you don't need to add a phone number. Only the rank 21 method requires you to add a phone.
Yeah...that Paladins BR, Realm Royale got a huge number for a week or two. The game basically disappeared now.
