My god, it's like a team of developers set out to make the most generic and safest FPS possible that does nothing bold, unique, or interesting. I couldn't play more than 2 matches before question what the fuck I'm doing with my life.
Yes it's been on the top of twitch for a week but we all know that's because the only way to get beta drops is by watching streams which is ingenious btw. I'll give riot credit for that but once all is said and done, I think everyone will drop this quickly. It's a jack of all trades and a master of none.
Like abilities? Go play overwwatch because they do it much better. Like the CS gun play? Go play CS because they do it much better.
And the smoke grenades, holy cow do they slow down the gamepaly to a slog. And the art style looks like a mobile game. This game is just so bland that it hurts. Anyone else noticing this or legit enjoying it?
>Like abilities? Go play overwwatch because they do it much better. Hard disagree. Abilities in Valorant are a supplement to the gunplay and add to the tactical decision-making without completely taking center stage. The problem in Overwatch is that it's ALL about the abilities. Your team goes in, uses abilities all at once, and the team with the most synergy takes it. Everyone waits for ults to be up, then runs in a group throwing them out to win. I like abilities, but I don't like the game being ONLY about abilities. >Like the CS gun play? Go play CS because they do it much better. Mild disagree. I think the Valorant guns all pretty much feel the same as their CS counterparts in terms of the shooting, but Valorant does have some differences in damage and how armor works which raises survivability a bit. It's really a preference of how lethal you want encounters to be, but I think the lower lethality is overall a benefit to the flow of the game and prevents those moments of "Where the fuck even was that guy who killed me?" because you can survive a lot of ambushes if their aim wasn't perfect.
Overall, I really like Valorant and find it more fun than CS. Overwatch is garbage, don't even fucking bring it up.

Yes, that is what Riot set out to do because they want to engage as many people as possible to bring in as much profit as possible.
Nathaniel Evans
But that's the point user. They went with the safest and blandest option because they knew it would make them a fortune just because of brand recognition.

>installs CCP rootkit on your system nothing to worry about bro, just consume new product
Guns don't feel varied enough Obvious Chinese pandering with safe character design You die way too quickly Have to pay to use abilities Fake eSports and fake hype bought by Riot No blood or gore Malicious Rootkit
Shouldnt of copied CSGO so much, that game sucks too. Should have made it more like TF2 or Overwatch.
Alexander Price
But the volvodrones clearly are triggered.
Zachary Miller
>TF2 or Overwatch nah, faggot shit.

And that's why you don't group up so tightly when you know the enemy has access to a rocket launcher. This is like entering a doorway single file when the enemy has an AWP.

Even if it killed only one person, it's too much. It's like, yeah, the Raze would get traded out immediately which is fine for the team, but for the player that died to the rocket launcher with no chance to do anything, it's not fun at all. Weapons should be both fun to shoot, and fun to be shot at.
Jose Rivera
Who cares incel
Landon Phillips
1. If they actually had someone in the window instead of all going through the same door then the window person could have killed Raze before the rocket launcher came out. 2. Why does this not apply to the AWP in CS? That's also a one-hit kill and can come from seemingly nowhere with no ability to react if someone is watching the right angles when you emerge.
I see no problem with either because both can be countered with appropriate tactics.
Bentley Robinson
community is already taking a hard stance against abilitys that can deal damage, there is only so many ways that you can make a hero that can deny sightlines and riots loves adding content and making chages. This game is doomed.

So it's like overwatch?
Oliver Robinson
The game is great you fucking retard
James Edwards
>2. Why does this not apply to the AWP in CS? the likelihood of a 5-man colat with the AWP is incredibly low and still has a chance to miss. The bazooka, on the other hand, has a huge radius where the splash damage is good enough that you don't need get a direct hit. It also kills 5 people with one ability without the chance for the team to respond.

>the likelihood of a 5-man colat with the AWP is incredibly low and still has a chance to miss. Yeah, I know, it was more a comment on "Even if it killed only one person, it's too much." If killing one person with no time to react is a problem to you then maybe CS-style games just aren't for you. >The bazooka, on the other hand, has a huge radius where the splash damage is good enough that you don't need get a direct hit. It's also an ability that you can only get a limited number of times per game due to how the charging works. And it takes time to pull out, too, so again if they had someone covering the window then she'd be dead before she pulled the thing out. >It also kills 5 people with one ability without the chance for the team to respond. Only if you all group up in a single entryway without covering your flanks like fucking dumbasses.
Nathaniel Flores
1. What about the clip right below it where there is no window and only one approach to site. 2. Okay, the AWP isn't great design either. But at least in CS, map design dictates that any angle held by an AWPer can be smoked or just not peeked. Because of the stupid abilities in Valorant however, Raze can just jump over utility that's supposed to wall enemies out. Which is really the crux of the issue.
David Gomez
I'm going to read your post, but for the record I'm 50% confident that you're not a real person
Ryan Martinez
>1. What about the clip right below it where there is no window and only one approach to site. You can get to the site through the middle of the map. There's even a tunnel to the left of that hallway that lets you double back and go a different way. Setting aside the fact that they never should have grouped up like that in the first place, as soon as that cluster bomb came out they should have split up and the spike carrier should have taken a different route. They had plenty of time to change tactics but they chose to just stand shoulder to shoulder in that hallway like dumbasses.
>bro this game sucks >yeah bro this game is dead >yeah you're right it's so shit >man I hate this game it's so bad then why are you so obsessed about it?
>only one approach to site. Uh, no. Pic related. Red scribble is the spawn, purple X is where they died. They had other options. One of them was literally a tunnel right next to where they were standing when they died. The team were dumbasses who didn't divert course when they knew that hallway was being not only watched, but actively attacked.
The saddest part is how you watched someone play the game, and then thought it looked fun enough to install a literal chink rootkit on your machine.
I could tell all this from 2 minutes of gameplay footage. Why are you so dumb?
Levi Collins
The rocket is AOE. You can't prefire with an AWP, you absolutely can with this rocket.
Evan Scott
The funniest part is how everyone who installed china anti cheat is now scratching their head why their computer has so many new issues like lower FPS in other games, crashing and blue screens.
John Anderson
Every game has more players now because of the virus, genius.
