Biggest problems in Valorant

Beliasar

I´m playing since the beginning and notice that this Game have more and more problems and some good Player´s and Friends leave it. Biggest one is Cheaters! We have been active in Anticheat-Communitys for many years (e.g. Overwatch CS:GO). So there are some Player´s with a lot of experience in this Topic. In the beginning of Valorant we receive lot of Mails about postive detection of a cheater. But now we report them (because there is WH / AIM ...) and nothing happens. Does RIOT have no interest to do something? Maybe the cheater pay a lot for skins (lol) and they are securde for perm-ban? So please RIOT do something... It was your advertisement that you have best and newest technology to prevent us for cheater!

Next issue: Smurfs... There are some they hate them and there are some they do it! And also RIOT should mark them in a game. If i understand technology right we have a fixed system-id. Maybe RIOT can use this id to detect them and remove them from ranked-rating. EG: If you have Gold3 and IRON3 account the IRON3 can play ranked but it dosn´t have a affect on the rating for other Player´s. Other way is to show all Player´s before start a Ranked-Match who is a Multi-Account User (with higher Accounts then actually played) and who not. That´s maybe fair!

Operator: Hmm don´t know exactly what to say to that issue... After update: To cheap (5000 is not a problem) to Powerfull (Hit the leg and die) and on most Maps you doesn´t have a good chance to kill the Sniper. Idea to this: 6000, longer time for reload and reduce damage from chest down.

For me: I will watch and play this season and decide after that to leave and bring my $$ to other virtuell-skin-shit-producers... 😃

Best regards

Beliasar about the smurfs: imagine there are to brothers who have to share a pc, but both of them have their own account.
I‘m sorry, but I think that this isn’t the right way... but I dint even have a better idea.

Beliasar Sorry, but cheaters is not an issue. You might want to improve your level.
The problem with smurf accounts is simple, cap the number of accounts to 1 single riot username with 1 email.
Forget about the operator, learn to deal with it, I just read whimpering all over...

Beliasar the operator doesnt one shot someone when it hits their legs, it does 120 damage. any change you mentioned would practically make the op useless. the reload is already slow and 5000 is a huge investment considering its possible for you to die due to no fault of your own. and you have to buy shields. that makes the total 6000 and thats not counting abilities and a secondary if you want one

dolero these hypothetical brothers should just make different accounts...RIOT needs to do something about the smurfs. They ruin ranked games 100%.

dolero

Freyjadogs you didn’t even read the posts right... he was talking about hardware IDs. One of them would be the smurf forever, but he isn’t.

Biggest problem in Valorant is Shorty on Spike Rush.
Seriously, if you are in defense side, and play standard as 2/1/2, then if attackers push one site all together you see 5 guys rushing you, they can shoots 2 times in a row each, so 10 shoots. 2 defensers, even 3, you have 4 or 6 shoots for responding.... It's so dumb. I don't know if Riot has statistics on these rounds (because they show 0 statistics like HS % so they don't like it, and we need use other sites for that...), but its should be pretty fun, like 90% loosing for defenders. It's just mathematics. So, BAN shorty from Spike Rush PLEASE. Thanks.

Maybe they are just better than you and not cheaters?! I almost play since the game went public and there was 1 single game ironically unrated where the match was terminated with cheater detected. In other games I didn't notice much of cheating either and do some research before you talk so easy about cheating. Do you even have an idea how much a hack cost for valorant? hundreds of dollars per month and will get you banned for sure, cheating is for losers.

I've never seen an op/awp in a better position (although the last I played was CS:S ten years ago). 5k is a lot to spend on one round, and you have to keep in mind that when you buy one the opponent now has an opportunity to get one for free. a huge investment for a powerful tool. I mention tool due to the fact that op re-fire rate is really long, and all to often you will find yourself wishing you had anything else.

jellicoDace The problem is, people under Platinum have no idea how to deal with operators, 1 bullet 1 dead, if you're half decent you can snowball games just by positioning, and if you're defending you have the advantage usually in positioning.

jellicoDace

c4talan_p0wer you have to work from the bottom line, the reality. if the op is the absolute bronze meta, then that is the world you live in. you have to adapt, or you will die crying in spawn.

never forget your abilities, never forget what angles ops favor, and most of all, don't get stuck.

c4talan_p0wer

jellicoDace Agreed. Noobs need to realize something, balance team never works for low levels, always towards competitive gameplay. That happens in sc2, the only thing I hear constantly is how broken a specific raze is, when pros don't have any problems.
People peeking out a corner, when the other has the position pinged is the biggest mistake for low players, and they always complain how you killed them so fast, don't pick if you don't want do die.

I think a problem with operator is not in this weapon directly but with smurfs who likes to use op on low ranks. Then, iron-bronze players are barely can do smth against them.

Wolves

Game isn't worth playing until they deal with the smurfs in competitive. Game has potential but it is unplayable at the moment in lower ranks.
