META VALORANT 13.01 Bug Megathread

2 Upvotes

Greetings Agents!

New patch, new Bug Megathread! To avoid bug reports cluttering the subreddit and/or going unnoticed, a Megathread is posted after every patch so users may submit reports in one place. This allows Riot to easily keep track of the bugs by providing a central hub and also allows other users to confirm that they might have encountered the issue as well.

Reporting a Bug

  1. A bug will ideally be accompanied with a screenshot or a video. This provides credibility to your report.
  2. Steps to recreate the bugs should be submitted if possible. This helps Rioters recreate the bug and helps them find the cause behind it.
  3. Unformatted, mematic, or joke reports are automatically indexed and may be removed by moderators to reduce the effort needed from Riot to view all reports.

META Reminder of our users breaking Riot TOS rule

0 Upvotes

Hey all!

We've noticed an uptick in posts of people calling out "cheaters" or people breaking TOS and we just want to remind everyone of our rules regarding this.

Posts calling out private individuals demonstrating toxicity and/or breaking Riot's Terms of Service are disallowed.

This includes, but is not limited to, directly naming people, linking to a player's profile or website, and posting screenshots or videos of users breaking VALORANT's Terms of Service. Censoring names and identifying content does not permit bypass of this rule. Some common examples that violate this rule are players cheating, exploiting, abusing text/voice chat, or griefing.

Private individuals are those who do not place themselves in public view by way of media presence or consented content creation. This could include methods such as videos, articles, humor, etc.

This includes suspected bot accounts as well.

Please note that we are not Riot games, we are not run by them. They don't use this subreddit to find and ban players. This is a community games sub to discuss the game. We do not have the ability to see the back end, know what information Riot has, what levels of punishment or if they're waiting on X to do Y.

In all cases you should be reporting these instances in game or to Riot Support to handle as they have the ability to see these accounts and judge them.

I must say it’s been about a month since I last worked on this, so some updates might have broken it. I haven’t checked, but nevertheless I wanted to share this Webapp I built that can read your Replay file and view it in 2D per round with utility.

Discussion Lost passion for playing

Upvotes

I just graduated from college and I felt that I lost my passion for playing this game. Way back before, I can't let a day go by without even playing a single game. But now I'm not even looking for it anymore. Tho there are still time when I see new skins, I buy it then use it for some time and then stop playing again.

Discussion Chamber's job sometimes gets stolen

16 Upvotes

Ok, so this is something I've noticed a lot in low elo (bronze, silver) as I've started to main Chamber.

Does it ever bug or annoy you when an initiator or Duelist takes a sniper and watches flank while on Attack? Especially when you're playing Chamber and that's something you're literally built to do.

I'm not saying it's wrong for the initiators or duelists to OP, but wouldn't it be better to help entry or initiate when the team keeps failing to enter site?

If my team dies while I was lurking or watching flank, I'd change things up and choose to entry with them.

Once, I had a Yoru taking an operator and telling the rest of the team to go to site while he holds them off. Like bro, you're the Duelist.

Even the last match I had a tejo playing operator with a light shield who had stopped using his utils to help get into site.

I still remember how funny it was when I asked for the operator from Fade who had picked it up the previous round. She ignored me only to die the very next second the barrier dropped.

But yeah, I'm definitely okay with an intitiator or Duelist playing an Operator as long as they do their job. Just don't take my job, bro 😭

As for me, whenever I play Chamber, I usually stop watching flank or stop lurking (which I do to cut off their rotations) after I've established my presence, to assist my team with entry.

Do y'all see this a lot in low elo too?

Question What’s the angriest yall have been in the game?

7 Upvotes

I mentioned this in a comment and I want to know other people’s most irritated/ “I gave up at that point” moments. I’ll go first-

I’m relatively low elo so if ykyk about how bad the smurfing really was. Ill set the scene, viper with an Odin I’m guessing qued with an omen on haven. You can probably just guess. Every smoke and every corner, absolutely MOWED down and somehow they knew every time where at least two or three of us would be and they’d camp there, even when we’d change up our strategies we couldn’t shake them. One person on my team was keeping us hostage too.

Pre nerf neon and peak Smurf season. Neon had a judge and she literally haunted us with it. Every corner. Every push. Every entry. Not a single person was safe from this Neon. It was SO bad that her team was apologizing to US in the chat. It was Ace Ace 4k Ace 3k. She would get some of us down with the judge then would one tap the rest of us.

I’ve only turned my pc off with rage one time and it was the neon game. I literally physically felt my blood pressure rise

I go through thought process between each kill/play and the aim is enough that I didn’t die. This is in low immortal on NA. I thought they were kinda good shots. Hope you enjoy.

I’m also working on xhair placement - it’s pretty bad still.

Discussion What's one ability of any agent you'd change?

10 Upvotes

I got curious about this as I was thinking about certain agents' abilities that I personally think can be quite limiting in their use or just not as fun to use (sova drone is boring lol). What do players think? Perhaps the ability was a certain kind or more enhanced in the early years of the game. It could be an ability that needs to be nerfed or buffed. Something you just dislike and there's no justifiable reason for it. Or just something wildly creative tweak you thought of. I just wanted to get a discussion going. I will get it started: I think Viper's orb should become retractable and last longer

Question just got queued with a peak Immortal Omen in my Gold 3 lobby. Is Valorant matchmaking okay?

i’m currently Gold 3 and just had a peak Immortal Omen in my actual game. I know hidden MMR is a thing, but a top-tier rank gap like this feels completely broken. They absolutely ran the lobby. Has anyone else experienced matchmaking this cooked lately?

Discussion Okay, so how are we actually feeling about Summit so far?

11 Upvotes

I've spent a decent amount of time playing Summit now, and honestly, it's a lot better than I expected. The map has some really fun ideas, but every match has felt like complete chaos so far. Maybe it's just because everyone is still learning the map, but rotations, timings, and fights seem all over the place right now.

Discussion How do u guys deal with tilt mid game?

5 Upvotes

I sometimes get tilted mid game, and lose motivation, focus, and my aim. I somtimes get tilted bc of a few whiffs or lag in the early rounds. It doesn't happen too often but it does happen occasionally. How do u guys deal with this kind of tilt? And don't say stuff like just don't queue when ur tilted cuz the tilt happens randomly mid game.
