I was previously SMFC. People love to call cheats way more often than people actually cheat im that game. People cannot fathom simply being worse, or they cannot emotionally handle it.
No, they should not add kernel level malware to the game.
I am certain of this because I climbed to global a few times, and I was tracking VAC bans in my game history. In the top ranks, every other game eventually had a player get VAC ban days or weeks later. In the middle ranks it was one or more players every game.
However the cheaters bothered me less than having to play the team's therapist in every game the moment we lost one round!
1. Cheating is not at all common.
2. Cheaters have low trust factor and you never see them if you don't have a low trust factor.
In either case I'm not very bothered. Don't put malware on my computer because some players haven't spent enough time in the game yet.
