Was hoping he'd have more input on weapon handling/spray patterns etc as 1.6 was some of the best gunplay in a competitive fp and Valorant is off.

Ah, just because he works on map design doesn't mean that he has input into various gameplay elements. He most definitely has input! I don't work on that side of things, but I know that there's a ton of ways that the design team work together with each other, and with the broader dev team to make sure they are getting feedback and tweaking things accordingly.

Just want to use this as an opportunity to re-up our bug megathread.

Contrary to popular belief, these megathreads aren't used to hide away the bugs, but rather to make sure that the issues we all face as players are seen and (hopefully) resolved by the devs.

Thanks! As a QA person, I love that y'all do this. It's so helpful to have the information consolidated in one place with default format expectations, etc.

Back in my LoL days I regularly hunted through those megathreads for issues :D

Vonspacker

have tried updating/disabling my antivirus which did not work.

Have just updated windows and will try again, will then try playing with firewall settings. Will feed back once I've tried all these options, thank you!

Thanks for the help! I hope you figure it out :D

Maybe that was intended (but bad behavior) from the driver. Like it recognized that a certain process was hindering its behavior so it would close the game because it wanted to try again after the "troublesome process" was eliminated?

Hahaha, maybe? I'm really not sure, this was a very odd one.

That's awesome, thank you so much for letting us know!

Out of curiosity, do you have any idea when we could expect those fixes to go in?

Also, do you know if these window-mode improvements will also cover the issue of certain high-res/ultrawide fullscreen resolutions not functioning properly?

For example, I filed ticket #46890006 with support reporting that on my 5120x1440 display, the game launches in fullscreen at 3840x1080. Trying to change the resolution to any 1440p resolution (2560x1440, 3440x1440, or my native res of 5120x1440) just reverts back to 3840x1080 even after hitting Apply > Confirm.

Thanks <3

Yes, this includes superwide resolution fixes.

I can't say when the patch is scheduled

Are you saying that we should PM you for access instead?

If you PM me for access, I will tell my dog mean jokes about you and ignore your message.

What is defined as an exploit? Camera gun sure 100% not intended but what about edge of map sage boosts like that Long A haven to see heaven and corner of stairs? Is that defined as an exploit?

Getting entirely out of the map, getting into normally inaccessible areas where you can see opponents but they can't see you, things like that, I would consider exploits.

If you're able to boost and see opponents, but they can also see you, maybe it's just a cheap angle, I would not necessarily call it an exploit. We'll be patching these out and addressing them as we go. Some of these boosts might end up being 'intended', and others might get patched out.

For some reason when I started a game this afternoon my mini map disappeared. I finished the match and restarted my game and it came back again.

I forgot to mention that one! We're looking into this, but having a hard time reproducing it. If it happens to you, spamming the map key seems to bring it back.

You might want to double check that the account linked to your twitch is the one you're checking on the VALORANT website. Sounds like a wrong account issue.

Anyone had one where you have to aim your cursor to the right to click on what you actually want to click on, not in game, just the interface like when in agent select or viewing weapons or contracts etc.

This is a known issue, most commonly seen if you have your taskbar on the top of the monitor instead of the default bottom taskbar.

If you use the ability paranoia with Omen, it often happens that the opponent is not blinded even though you hit him 100%

The hitbox is tiny on that thing

What? Nonsense! How can it be possible? I've been spamming your discord feedback thread since 7th first hour of release. How am I not on the list

I've found 30+ people around with the same issue. I had a script sending mouse input to the game to confirm my theory. There really is a mouse inptut lag issue

And everyone who report about this input issue have another weird quirk:

When you look completely down or up at character camera limits, your left and right mouse input is choppy, instead of being smooth the camera does miss the input and jump suddenly

Everyone with this little quirk also experience noticeable and constant mouse input lag overall that ruins all experience. I've reached level 5 of beta challenge few days ago and it was unbearable pain to play all this time. The moment I change to any other game it feels like heaven, everything is so responsive

Tell me you saw this, I'm tired of bumping this issue twice everyday j_j

Hello! I'm not active on the discord community :(

We have a bug open for the issues around looking straight up and straight down, but haven't prioritized fixing it since there's not a lot of gameplay reason to look straight up or down, but it is on the list.

We're looking into mouse input lag issues, specifically most notable at low sensitivity while scoped, but I'm not sure what the progress is on that.

The vandal and some other gun reload animations drop multiple mags even though it should be just one

We have a bug open to fix this, but it's low priority.

I can't see the circle around my agent on the map, which indicates footsteps. I know it should only work when I'm running and it doesn't work most of the times.

We're working on a fix for this!

Graffioh

Are you working on AMD cpu LOW fps/stutters?

yes

Are you aware of anyone hearing ghost footsteps or audio in general being odd?

I was in bind-bathrooms during a 1v1 and heard footsteps through the wall to my left but the only opponent left was directly in front of me. Here is a diagram

It was a 1vs1 vs an Omen, so it's possible that he teleported but I did not hear any teleport. I'll watch the demo tonight if that's possible and make a video of it. My whole team heard them too.

We had an issue where you would sometimes not be able to hear "low priority" sounds, which was mostly cosmetic stuff, but notably ally footsteps. We put out a fix for that issue yesterday.

For audio, I think that might fall more into the audio readability feedback bucket - I don't think it's bugged.

Does the anti-cheat software ban you from taking screenshots?

I'm using Lightshot or an equivalent program that replaces the default print screen functionality on my computer. When I press print screen, my game force closes. I believe I got an anticheat message too. I was trying to get a screenshot of an arrow lineup for Sova.

We aren't specifically blocking screenshots (for example, you can use the Nvidia Shadowplay overlay to take screenshots), but 3rd party applications like that one might have issues if they have unsigned drivers.
