Counter-Strike: Global Offensive will now launch in ‘Trusted Mode’ according to the latest announcement. Valve has already announced that it was testing the beta version of this in its previous announcement. Through the ‘Trusted launch’, Valve plans to take its fight against the hackers to the next level.
‘Trusted Mode’ will not allow 3-party files to run with the game. It will detect an unauthorized file and display a warning. Furthermore, the player will be banned from VAC-enabled servers. This will also temporarily affect the player’s trust score.

Counter-Strike is a game that has been forever plagued by cheaters and hackers. It is extremely easy for anyone to download a 3 party software that allows them to use wallhacks, spin bots, aim hacks, etc. There have been numerous instances where pros were caught using hacks in official tournaments and were banned. Not only does it look bad on the part of that particular player but also on the game and its makers.
Valve’s decision to launch ‘trusted mode’ is to ensure that the game bans such cheaters/hackers to maintain the standard of gameplay.
