All the botnet anti-cheats are fighting each other lmao

based EA removing valorant

>>717778705 (OP)
kek
pretty based
its very grim

>>717778705 (OP)
Good because I won't be installing any of them.

>>717778705 (OP)
you haven't seen anything yet
it's gonna get worse before it gets better

>We have detected you have [competitors game] installed on your system

How optimistic of you.

>>717778705 (OP)
The gaming industry has been cutthroat for a long time. Why else do you think every game started becoming over 100gb? It is too make it so you have less room to install competitor's games. Either Activision or Microsoft started that. Now we have EA's anti-cheat calling competitor's games malware lmao

i'm waiting for games to require their own operating system at this point.

>>717779235
nintendo ahead of the industry with their console exclusives!!

Good
I hope future games come with memetic agents that instantly kill anyone who plays them

>>717778705 (OP)
Jej pretty based and good way to beat the competition

the funniest part is that they don't actually work at stopping cheating

>>717779174
Exactly my first thought haha oh dear we are so fucked

>>717779196
>Why else do you think every game started becoming over 100gb?
because audio and textures are uncompressed. don't be dumb.

>>717779180
people are gonna move on from these games once they become too restrictive and cumbersome for the average PC user

>>717778705 (OP)
That's actually fucking hilarious. I hope more multiplayer games do this and add more anti-cheat software so they all just overlap and make things worse.

>>717779585
Yes, on purpose. Lazy pajeet shit like that is encouraged and incompetence is the excuse. Expanding file sizes are publishers claiming territory and that is their weapon of choice.

>>717779196
>Why else do you think every game started becoming over 100gb
Humongous, uncompressed assets and "game designers" having no concept of how computers work.

>>717779235
not a bad idea actually, these games are getting to the size where they take up entire drives. may as well boot into a custom os, keep the spyware off your regular os and would reduce cheating further.

That's why I refuse to play any games with those "built-in" anticheats.
I'll never be a cheater but I refuse to put that shit on my PC.

>>717779585
I think he's saying that's why they don't bother to compress anymore.

>>717779327
well you're really paying them for the hardware.
what i mean is they want you to front your own hardware and THEN install their operating system on it.

>>717778705 (OP)
kernel level anticheat is the biggest cancer in the history of gaming. bigger than always online. bigger than horse armor. bigger than lootboxes.
the entire industry must be burned to the ground.

The absolute fucking state of online FPS.
>install malware to be allowed to play
>fuck with your BIOS settings to be allowed to play
>uninstall other games to be allowed to play
>cheaters still ruin the game anyway
>controller players get native dev-sanctioned cheats
>all this so you can run on a matchmaking treadmill designed by psychologists for minimum enjoyment but maximum addiction
>that'll be $80 + battlepass + DLC + microtransactions
What a sick fucking joke. Actual humiliation ritual to still be playing this dumpster fire genre.

>>717780198
it's not that bad because it really only affects competitive PvP games.
if you have any serious privacy concerns you just have a second operating system for these games or even a seperate PC entirely.
the people to blame here are the cheaters and cheat makers.

>>717778705 (OP)
>Destiny
Play a better game, asshole

>>717780198
It needs to become illegal

>>717778705 (OP)
You agree to be a footsoldier in the corporate wars when you accept the TOS on install.

>>717781853
no, the people to blame are the retard faggots that ask for these anticheats because see cheaters in every game instead of realizing they fucking suck nigger ass

>>717781537
don't buy them problem solved

>>717778705 (OP)
I don't care who wins as long as cheaters lose.

how about I just play something else

>>717781998
t. cheater

>>717782137
kill yourself nigger

>>717782090
cheaters can't lose

>>717782169
t. tiny dick haver

Consolechads we win again

SMM anticheats when

Why do people come on here and post screenshots of other sites? I am here to use 4chan, not Twitter.

>>717780084
The difference in download size (compressed) vs install size on most AAA games is 10-20%, compression isn't the problem.
Unless by compression you mean shittier assets then yeah I agree.
It should probably all be more modular anyway, let people download the graphical present they want and not the others etc.

>>717778705 (OP)
But anons(paid shills) insisted the DRM wasn't malware!

>>717783361
Apparently a big problem is that a lot of games will insist on including the voice files for every single language dub of the game. I appreciate the option of everyone being able to listen to a game in their native language but having to download every single one instead of choosing the ones you want is a bit ridiculous.

this is only an issue if you play goycattle garbage.

>>717780198
Fucking zoomers keep downloading them

>>717778705 (OP)
>or adjust it's settings
>adjust it is settings
indian ass anticheat lmao

>>717783520
steam doesn't facilitate it easily, youd need to have them as free DLC or something which wouldn't be the worst.
The main bulk of the file size is art assets (~70% in most AAA) which can't be compressed without just being worse art assets.

>>717784031
Art assets is another problem. Texture sizes, polygon counts, all that shit keeps going up and taking up space, and for diminishing returns too.

>>717779196
>Why else do you think every game started becoming over 100gb?
So that I won't ever buy or install said games because it would require me to uninstall 15 other games.

It goes both ways.

>>717778705 (OP)
kek i remember back in the day when idiots installed multiple anti-virus programs and they started fighting each other breaking windows in the process thanks to kernel level access

>>717783937
holy shit you are literally the dumb Indian here you fucking retard

it's =/= it is

>>717785081
That is what the "it's" spelling means, you want it to be possessive? THEN DROP THE APOSTROPHE YOU FUCKING IDIOT.

Unironically how does cheating even happen and why is it so hard to stop?

>>717785687
they sent info to server from their own pc. use your head stupid

>>717780198
nah, dumb cheaters are even worse and should be illegal.

>>717785081
noony I...

>>717782015
lel

>go to the original post
>every comment is just someone saying "good" or "wow I didnt expect bf6 to be this good"
why are people like this?

>>717784031
Neural textures are the future

>>717781853
Thanks to achievement faggots there is anticheat in single player these days as well. Can't even have fun with video games anymore.

I hope you kill each other.

Looks like someone is getting sued.
