No please, no kernel-level mode.

Anti-cheat kernel mode = instant uninstall = instant waste of my time and money investment.

Unfortunately EA has never done what the buyers of their games want -> for me this was 100% the last time that I've wasted my money for an EA product.

I'm one of the idiots who has paid full price, as I was really waiting for the new Codemasters Rally title.

BTW: It could be that they already rolled out the new EA Anticheat with the VR update but haven't it not activated.

Then we are two idiots who paid full price. But It's ok as I always have been a rally games fan.

I really like the game, but noway I will let EA do whatever they want in kernel mode on my system.

Always same story, why they prefer to 'punish' everyone instead of banning the cheaters ?

Anyway, the second I detect the AC process on my system => uninstall and back to DR2.0
