Hopefully we'll see the cheating decrease in the near future.

In case you haven't seen it, a number of sources are predicting the release of VAC2 in the next week or so.

My theory is, that it is already out. And they have been gathering information on the hacks out there, and those that use them. And we'll see a rash of bannings. :rockon:

Just my theory. :crazy: :D

Fozzy,

I think that would be pretty cool. I'd love to see a ton of steam IDs rendered useless due to cheating.

Your theory tends to mesh with the statement made a while back on the steam forums that:

"VAC2 will catch a lot of people off guard" (or something to that effect).

I can't wait. I wonder how many cheaters will actually buy another copy of CS:Source and play without hacks.

This should also take alot of stress off the admin's backs and hopefully get the complaints forum to slow down a bit. If Vac2 is half as good as it supposed to be it will rock. :rockon:

I'm just hoping VAC2 is actually a step above VAC1 from the days of 1.x and then on. Cheaters found their way around VAC in the past, but upon it's initial release it got rid of quite a few people.

ok heres a question, cus i dont really get how VAC is supposed to work so well. i can see how they can detect an aimbot or speedhack. but how would they detect a hack like antirecoil? or wallhacks? or esp? or the million other subtle hacks out there?
