AMD Anti-Lag+ in Counter-Strike 2 Leads to VAC Bans, Valve and Devs Warn

Counter-Strike 2 developers have warned players using AMD's Anti-Lag+ feature to turn it off or risk receiving VAC bans. The feature, introduced with a driver update in September 2023, aims to reduce latency for gamers. However, tampering with the game's code by enabling Anti-Lag+ can result in a VAC ban. Valve plans to reverse any bans caused by the feature, but this incident is not the first time an AMD graphics card update has caused issues for Counter-Strike 2 players. AMD has yet to comment on the VAC bans.
