Steam VAC and Panzer Corps

Fans of the old Panzer General series rejoice for the release of Panzer Corps. Following in the footsteps of the popular SSI masterpiece and sharing with the General series the same level of engagement and strategic depth, Panzer Corps will keep an unmistakable "PG feeling" whilst improving and refining the gameplay and balance. Panzer Corps will feature 26 scenarios on 21 unique maps, covering most major battles of the European Theatre of World War II and including a few hypothetical 'what if' scenarios based on your actions. Now expanded with a full-war mega-campaign and the Afrika Corps and Allied Corps releases!

Steam VAC and Panzer Corps

Post by wings7 »

I think I know the answer to this question but I will ask anyway:
When playing Panzer Corps on or through Steam...when you use the in game cheats (Ctrl+Alt+Shift+C to enter a cheat code) will that trigger a Steam VAC (Valve Anti-Cheat System) ban? [&:]

Anti cheat only applies in MP, not in single player

Thanks Zak! What is annoying is no mention of Multi Player in the Steam VAC article...or did I miss it?

my info is just from the forums, and i also cheat in single player and have done since steam came out, i alter anything i wish to in most of my games, as once bought i play them like i want, not how they were programmed or designed, and as i don't play online, it's never bothered me, mind you, using them you also don't get achievements in most games if it's a inbuilt game cheat

Yes, I'm much the same way...I did not realize the "no achievements in most games if it's a inbuilt game cheat"...I guess I did not pay much attention.

only some, not all, but as they also don't appeal to me (achievements), i don't care that much about them either, steam levels also mean little to me, as it seems some still buy there where to the top, while others work hard for it, and some just plain cheat to get better stats with underhand or clever means, i'm useless at most games, so as long as i enjoy the lower levels myself, i just give myself a helping hand when stuck, after i've failed for a few days or weeks and almost given up, so for me it keeps a game alive and used where as without i'd have uninstalled it ages ago, saying all this, i don't finish many games as if i have to cheat too often, then i get fed up anyway and tend to leave it[:(]
