-
Marcus Walters (@marcus_walters) reported@ArsVampyre @riotgames You mean Sony BMG lost challenges to its DRM rootkits specially, but won the merits of DRM. The problem was they hid their software, not the DRM itself. The Sony BMG loss was actually a win, it is what solidified the legal strategy that Riot has relied on to foundationalize its practices with Vanguard. It was a win, you just missed it by being superficial.
-
Clocked (@Clocked0) reported@rtistSage @crash @riotgames The devices themselves, those $6000 "paperweights" ? Perfectly functional. Vanguard just stops you from using them. It blocks their access to the PC's memory. It's creepy that we are surrendering control over our PC's, but the solution is simple: Don't play Valorant or League.
-
Pleasant Night 🎩🌙 (@Pleasantnight1) reported@riotgames Actually vanguard does cause issues with the intel 14th gen i9 that will cause your computer to blue screen even when you are not playing riot games. I have had to deal with multiple support tickets with riot support with none of them being successful.
-
**** (@GtfoZ27) reported@riotgames Ok but can you fix Vanguard on AMD gpus? Whole reason I stopped playing other than burnout was my drivers hard crash and disable my gpu
-
Valerie (@violet_rancor) reported@GiftyCucumber @crash @riotgames It leverages Microsoft's DMA protection features built into Windows which will only hit devices that are directly accessing memory and is fully reversible, it just blocks the DMA card from loading until you disable DMA protection.
-
SEKO (@sekoidd) reported@NoLimits057 @Tevvy57 @riotgames i played competitive online games 20 years with so many different AC software i never had any problems and I don't care about false positives, even if there are its a very small number 👍
-
Steven Agullo (@StevenAgullo) reported@ngymod @riotgames I am not saying they should "delete it" They simply shouldn't have an anti-cheat that's so invasive. Yes there's other software that can cause issues to the software/hardware on ACCIDENT, this one does it on purpose, that's the actual issue.
-
Biscuit (@PaisleyBiscuit) reported@_Zizmir @crash @riotgames Typing buzz words without ever understanding how it actually works. why are people so confidently ignorant now man
-
Juha Kallio (@juhakall) reported@the_englebert @Maltyversee @riotgames 99% of "solutions" have these issues if you think about it. We would be a spacefaring species otherwise.
-
0xNihilo (@NovoNihilo) reported@riotgames It also caused my PC to error crash multiple times this week for Kernel Software error I have the minidump files to prove it
-
Ondřej (@gammaroneus) reported@JewishPowerMssd @riotgames They mean your computer may start going all wonky, maybe crash too, not that it will be permanently damaged
-
xenstudio (@xen_studio) reported@WinterCharmVT @eron_wolf @riotgames If all you do is sign in & play specific game or whatever, may be completely OK & valid for you; but if have a lot of other things going on not game related, becomes very heavy handed and really isn't the way to go here. I'm not against anti cheat, but they need a better way.
-
invs86 (@DeviousPL) reported@imSnowely @RiotSupport @RiotSupportFR Run Windows Memory Diagnostic. It looks more like you’re getting memory corruption and vgk.sys (Vanguard) is causing a fatal error from not getting the data back it expects
-
Chris Edwards (@ArsVampyre) reported@marcus_walters @neonghost @riotgames You really don't understand anything. Terms of Service cannot authorize illegal activity.
-
Klemči (@klemen_xd) reported@gonggavirgo @RiotSupport me and a friend got tired of waiting and figured it out ourselves yesterday. The real issue is that not everyone has the technical knowledge to do this, and Valorant support being completely unresponsive for weeks doesn't help. Do better @RiotSupport
-
jj (@luhfantasy) reported@_Zizmir @crash @riotgames it’s not actually bricked it just won’t work on valorant it throws up error codes it’s that simple just don’t use it
-
Clocked (@Clocked0) reported@crash @riotgames They weren't even doing that BTW. Those same devices that were supposedly "bricked" work perfectly fine on other PC's as long as Vanguard isn't present. They literally just blocked access. That's it. They didn't "brick" them and that wording is deliberately absurd.
-
Klausin (@Klaustrofobic00) reported@riotgames no ome would be saying anything if this just affected cheaters. non-cheating players are having problems with this terrible software. it crashes so much i can't play anymore bc of the low priority Q's timer that i got from vanguard crashing: by the time its over, it crashed again
-
Daaling (@Daaling_) reported@TheAitor568 @riotgames for me it would just freeze and give me kernel error if vanguard was installed. it would go away if vanguard wasnt installed. support just told me it was a known issue and to replace my processor.👍
-
ÕmegaÑasral 🐇 (@RedkRivetka) reported@eron_wolf @riotgames It’s their computer and they can access their memory as much as they want Just disconnect this cheating thingie while playing multiplayer games manually
-
• • Cactus • • (@vsmallcactus) reported@riotgames I will never understand all the "vanguard causes PC problems" Cause since vanguard rolled out, in cycled through 8 PCs (slowly upgrading to better ones) and never experienced any issues from it. Granted if I am not playing a riot game, I close out vanguard.
-
Dumb Durr's Goods (@Dumb_Durr) reported@riotgames the system may generate hardware faults or instability VGK suddenly triggered an IOMMU restart warning in-game, after which the DMA firmware becomes completely unusable, even without the game running or after uninstalling Vanguard. Only fix is a full OS reinstall.
-
Super Kong (@MonkeyFlorest35) reported@8wayFunz @riotgames They have buried all those problems....
-
Fractured Dawn (@FracDawn) reported@eron_wolf @riotgames If Vanguard depends on low level system features like IOMMU, then bugs or edge cases could cause failures that normal users don’t understand or can’t fix. Even people who have been using it for years mess up and brick their os (fixable but hard) simply to far for a "video game".
-
SNES_Mouse (@FHoeltl) reported@_BloxMaster3_ @riotgames Yo just said it makes hardware unusable.even if temporary a normal person with no tech knowledge wont be able to fix it
-
Fatigued (@mcr91bs) reported@crash @riotgames Even if this is only happening 100% to "cheaters" (which I GUARANTEE is false), they still have massive liability for causing damage to private property.
-
AbraxasAlpha (@AbraxasAlpha) reported@LazyGenGamers @riotgames Im not saying you’re wrong, im saying that it’s not as simple as you said…. You’re either paranoid or trying to cause paranoia. Why do you think they or other kernel level softwares haven’t had that problem lately?
-
Hakuhyo (@scyshw6492) reported@mogisome @hottboy22_ @riotgames And Idk “3p DMA” like it’s a malicious thing. DMA is perfectly normal h/w and having it on your device does not indicate you’re cheating. If Riot’s doesn’t like it, then it’s perfectly within their rights to deny the service when it detects it.
-
Chris Evans (@evans_cn) reported@xXBROKENXx1981 @dafr0g_ @riotgames Cheaters are a much smaller problem than allowing software kernel-level access.

JasonMDXLIV🇦🇺 (@JasonMDXLIV) reported@OdjnBluefire @riotgames signing the Eula / terms of service gives them authorization
