News Battlefield 6 open beta won't run if you have Valorant installed, thanks to Riot's anti-cheat — uninstall if you plan to joint the second open beta...

[Admin]

Battlefield 6 will refuse to load if you have Valorant installed on your computer because its anti-cheat software, Riot Vanguard, conflicts with Battlefield's own. The issue boils down to kernel-level anti-cheat software looking for control over the computer to prevent exploits on the deepest possible level, maybe a little too deep.

This is false and Eurogamer covered it already. You cannot run both at the same time, but both can be installed. The Valorant anti-cheat just cannot be active (it can be turned off at any time if it is running and requires a reboot before the game can be played if disabled).

Are you implying something, besides needing a proof reader?

If it requires that much access to my system then no thank you. Speak with your wallets people. Cheaters are always going to find another way to cheat. I won't be buying this game. Just another exploit waiting to happen.

Kernel level anti-cheat needs to die. Having them conflict is FANTASTIC news, as it brings awareness to how invasive these software programs are!

Valorant anti-cheat is basically an open door so riot can steal everything on your PC. I'm serious. Malware "drivebys" that the kernel level application allows etc etc.
All planned in advance....
