As fairly new player I didn't even notice these except maybe the "protected bullet" one - yesterday I felt that more people are shooting HS on me WHILE moving.
Yet with Valorant I still can't get it - is my setup wrong or is there such a huge peeker advantage "lag". Meaning I regularly get 170 ms reaction speed test, on my "on point" days I get it below 150, on the day's I feel off it creeps up to 190 ms, yet in game it feels that I am always like half second if not "behind"...
Improving protected bullets seems like dumbing down the game 🙁 hope Valorant is not following Apex Legends path = make game easy for weekend gamers with controller to increase revenue stream while making game totally noncompetitive (no competitive mindset, motivation to work on mechanics).
But clearly I see some similarities = improving aggressive legends vs slowing down defensive ones, which is not ideal 🙁
