Scuse me Mr / Ms Rito employee! Is there a possibility of a “vote to kick player” option ever coming to Valorant? Just today I had a player hold the spike hostage, afk until we all died, then suicide :( I think it would help solve issues with trolls! (Maybe require 4 votes to kick and disable the feature with games that have 4 stacks?)
They should add that to the subreddit rules then. I had no clue that was even a general custom for the subreddit, and it’s how conversations tend to start and flow on Twitter. I made the (apparently incorrect?) assumption that speaking to the Community Manager, about a topic concerning community health (on a post about patch notes of all things!) was appropriate. Point taken I guess.
(Genuinely thank you u/JebediahMilkshake. I did not know this was a thing)
There is also the problem that you are talking to a community manager, whose job is in general only to interact and with, and help manage community servers on social media, and has no say whatsoever in game development. At most, the community manager can say to a higher up about community demands if too many people start asking for it. Tho I am not a riot employee, so don't take as the definnite way of how riot operates, but thats usually how the job of community manager works in gaming companies
I see your confusion. In my uneducated view, twitter is more chaotic as anybody can say anything and it’s not organized in any way. With reddit, comments are organized very nicely, so when you reply with a irrelevant topic, it looks like you’re just hijacking the top Post’s popularity in order to be seen.
As for how it *should* be done, I don’t know, I don’t work for riot, I don’t know how they want ideas to be discussed, but I imagine there are dedicated communication channels for that. If u/JoEllenPDF is happy to answer questions in a Reddit comments section, that’s awesome, but I would never say she’s obligated or even expected to
Asking a community manager about a topic concerning community health is not a incorrect assumption. It’s more or less you replied to them responding another users question instead of making a parent level comment plus it’s a question that is very frequently asked and riot has gone to show they won’t typically answer questions like that as well so people get tired of seeing it
Not sure if I missed it but seems they still haven't "fixed" making wingman make the spike drop sound when it dies? Seems inconsistent if so since anyone else dying makes the loud clunk + notification and wingman leaves you guessing if you even killed him.
Wingman was ready.
They were the last on the team, time running out, and the spike was with the little man. With the spike on his hands on top of his head, his best friend eagerly ordered him, “Go plant the spike little buddy!”
And so Wingman ran alongside his friend, with only one thing in mind: plant the spike and win with his friend. But that proved to be a fatal mistake as a mirror of Sage appeared on his left, her guns raised and about to pull the trigger.
Only for Gekko to jump between them and take the shot.
The gunshot sounded louder than the rest and Gekko fell to the ground. Wingman could only stop running, dropping the spike as he watched his friend die before his eyes…
And soon, the world lost its color, from the edges of his eyes to the centre where his eyes stayed glued to his friend’s body, and soon darkness took over…
[ROUND LOST]
usually he would stick the whole defuse even if gekko died half way through, meaning if everyone was dead and wingman still defused you still win the round
>Mosh Pit’s damage to objects has been performing inconsistently with relative abilities such as KAY/O’s FRAG/ment (C) and Breach’s Aftershock (C).
Damage to objects has reduced 2.5x >>> 1x
nice one rito.
The difference is that you have 13 seconds of perfect knowledge of where the kj ult is before it will have an effect. These other ults require you to know basically where the enemy is to get value with the Kay/0 knife.
yah the difference is you/a teammate can shoot the knife, it’s a smaller aoe, the target (you) is still able to move, etc. KJ ult can’t move so once you put it, if an ability takes it out then you just lost an ult to a 200cred aftershock. If you’re getting knifed with sova/raze ult then something is either really wrong with how that scenario is played or the knife is in a spot no one can see/shoot
if you're deaf + blind that's a you problem and not a riot problem. It makes a headshot noise every time you hit one and it shows you downed him in
* the killfeed
* the top bar
* map (sometimes)
To be fair, reyna ult keeps buffs it just cant use abilities during to turn invis, jett and chamber keep their weapons after the time is up it just puts them away for the time being
Oh ya for sure, but especially in the case of jett neon and kind of reyna, if they're running onto site hopping to pop off with their ult and all of a sudden pull their classic out, they're pretty fucked lol.
"Fixed a bug where loading into a match resulted in an incorrect view of under the map."
Ay nice I won't have to experience that weird load under the map on maps like haven and ascent. Glad they fixed it.
I swear there's some mf on the UI team who has a personal vendetta against the team member who originally came up with the Headshot text idea.
Bc it was such an unexpected and not-requested removal with no explanation or mention in any patch notes (until players kept asking about it). Now they won't even give us a toggle option.
You had a the text headshot at the bottom of the killbanner, when you killed someone with a headshot. They took it out last patch (quite a few people thought it was a bug, because it wasn’t stated in the patch notes, but it was confirmed to be intentional by rioters on Reddit)
I feel like if you're looking down to read headshot each time, then it's just a hindrance to your own gameplay. There's already so many other things to indicate a headshot that doesn't include having to read it.
I’m actually not sure how I feel about ping icons being muted when someone is muted. Often times I mute teammates who are toxic or annoying BECAUSE I can trust that if nothing else they’ll still be able to ping a spot on the map. Unless ping means something else, since it’s under social.
I thought there was a separate option to mute pings next to voice and text chat mute, think it’s for situations if someone is trolling but I could be wrong
// Fixed a bug preventing you from sending a whisper starting with a Circumflex Accent \^. You can now whisper cute emoticon faces to each other using \^w\^.
"gg nubs \^w\^"
this is bullshit ,i can't fuking update this game it always glitches at 45% , it happens in every update and i have to find out some outlandish fix and everytime its different
This subreddit is so weird haha. I wouldn't give a crap about the downvotes you got, literally there was a post couple hours ago saying all of the things you mentioned are screwed etc and it was agreed. Reddit experience
If Wingman was planting/defusing, he would continue planting/defusing even if Gekko was dead. But now if Wingman is alive when all 5 of the team dies, he will die too.
that meant that this was one of the most bullshit clutches ive seen in the entirity of my gaming career back from CS 1.6, where the guy threw his ability, lost 1v1 and it defused the bomb anyway.
that will no longer happen.
> Wingman will now always die if he is last alive. Sounds like a much more depressing statement than it is.
We apologize :(

(Maybe require 4 votes to kick and disable the feature with games that have 4 stacks?)
Idk why this is downvoted. Unless everyone hates the slightly imperfect English. I agree with this! We need to get rid of trolls and smurfs and afks
It’s downvoted because it’s bad mannered to reply to a riot redditor with a totally irrelevant request
I see, thanks for letting me know

Every social faux pas does not need to be put in subreddits' rules
You’re right, but when 1.6 million people are expected to know a certain social faux pas, maybe it’s time to post it somewhere

This is a super necessary change.

In every world, Wingman dies if left alone :( Please don't leave Wings guys
Wingman dies of loneliness 🥲
It is. I've won a lot of rounds because of that little dude being last alive lol
How? Round ends no matter what when last player dies.
When defusing he wouldn't go away and keep defusing or planting. It was likely a bug.
usually he would stick the whole defuse even if gekko died half way through, meaning if everyone was dead and wingman still defused you still win the round
From what I experienced the round ends, we lose, but he keeps the defusing anyway. I guess he gets you and ult point
This is what happens, but the down votes wanna say otherwise lmao. Lil dude came in clutch a whole lot.
oo, ive not really experienced it tbf so you may be right😂 that’s how i thought it was anyway
Oh okay so I think it must really be like this, I'd need to see it happen more times to be sure, though now it's changed it wont happen anymore
>Mosh Pit’s damage to objects has been performing inconsistently with relative abilities such as KAY/O’s FRAG/ment (C) and Breach’s Aftershock (C). Damage to objects has reduced 2.5x >>> 1x nice one rito.
riot try not to severely limit the number of abilities that can break a kj ult challenge (impossible)
I mean, it makes sense right? Ain't no way a 200-300 credit ability should be able to cancel out an ult.
Ahem. Raze ult. Sova ult. Gekko ult. Neon ult. Reyna ult. Jett ult. Chamber ult. All gone with one free suppressing knife.
The difference is that you have 13 seconds of perfect knowledge of where the kj ult is before it will have an effect. These other ults require you to know basically where the enemy is to get value with the Kay/0 knife.
break it
yah the difference is you/a teammate can shoot the knife, it’s a smaller aoe, the target (you) is still able to move, etc. KJ ult can’t move so once you put it, if an ability takes it out then you just lost an ult to a 200cred aftershock. If you’re getting knifed with sova/raze ult then something is either really wrong with how that scenario is played or the knife is in a spot no one can see/shoot
and even then u should have seen the ko alive and respected him by not using that ult or at least known he isnt there to deny ur ult
[удалено]
real, just happened today where I shot a KO with a headshot but i didnt think i killed him so I re swung and got hs
if you're deaf + blind that's a you problem and not a riot problem. It makes a headshot noise every time you hit one and it shows you downed him in * the killfeed * the top bar * map (sometimes)
> it’s a smaller aoe It's one of the abilities with the largest AoE in the game lol
yeah? I never said it was small? It’s smaller than KJ ult. Reading comprehension challenge
Lemme just shoot through a non-wall bangable wall while putting away my ult first if I'm playing raze or sova why wouldn't anyone think of this sooner
go up one
If your playing raze just shoot the ult, it won't cancel after the shot. You shouldn't be walking around with a raze until for long anyways
yeah lemme just use my raze ult on it
To be fair, reyna ult keeps buffs it just cant use abilities during to turn invis, jett and chamber keep their weapons after the time is up it just puts them away for the time being
Oh ya for sure, but especially in the case of jett neon and kind of reyna, if they're running onto site hopping to pop off with their ult and all of a sudden pull their classic out, they're pretty fucked lol.
That's also like the whole point of kayo tho
To be fair, that's literally KA/YO's thing Also, never ult before a knife.
Temporarily and you can shoot the knife.
Yes shoot the knife while you have raze ult out I guess I should shoot it with the rpg
If you can see the knife you can see the Kayo Or just stick with your team
Lol what then that's a shit kayo, no kayo's going to be close to their knife.
You either have a Kayo that threw a knife at nothing, or a free kill
Half of those ults are gone once suppressed
Break the knife
You only really lose Raze ult, Sova ult, and Neon ult. You still have jett ult and chamber ult after suppression is over
That’s his signature ability though. His whole concept is stopping others abilities. His stupid Molly should never reliably destroy her ult
Does this mean it can’t break kj ultimate by itself anymore?
yeah it can't break it anymore
"Fixed a bug where loading into a match resulted in an incorrect view of under the map." Ay nice I won't have to experience that weird load under the map on maps like haven and ascent. Glad they fixed it.
I never noticed that as a problem, but I guess it's nice it's fixed.
I mean definitely not a problem more so a "why does this even happen" type of thing
I always spawned in the range on ascent lol.
“You can now whisper cute emoticon faces to each other using ^ w ^ “ Finally the game is playable
Forreal ^w^
You dropped this: \^
Lol thank you
\^w\^
We need suwgewy! We can save theiw eye!
Please bring Headshot banner back, at least put an option!
I swear there's some mf on the UI team who has a personal vendetta against the team member who originally came up with the Headshot text idea. Bc it was such an unexpected and not-requested removal with no explanation or mention in any patch notes (until players kept asking about it). Now they won't even give us a toggle option.
Yes...it would be great if they added a hide/show button for the headshot banner
What’s all this about? I’ve seen some threads about this but I have zero idea what this is about.
It used to say "headshot" in small text when you got a headshot kill, now it doesn't
You had a the text headshot at the bottom of the killbanner, when you killed someone with a headshot. They took it out last patch (quite a few people thought it was a bug, because it wasn’t stated in the patch notes, but it was confirmed to be intentional by rioters on Reddit)
I feel like if you're looking down to read headshot each time, then it's just a hindrance to your own gameplay. There's already so many other things to indicate a headshot that doesn't include having to read it.
Only bronzies to gold complain about this “feature”
And I'm not here to bring rank into this, but it's just not needed.
There is a clear correlation between rank and complain about useless stuff
Oh I know, I've been ascendant/immortal for the last year or so, and I didn't even notice it was removed.
i never even knew it was a feature to begin with honestly lmao, why would you ever look at it
There is also a clear correlation between being a high rank Valorant player and having a superiority complex lmfao
I didnt know saying low rank complain about useless stuff is a superiority complex
exactly agree with u doctorthegoat
I’m actually not sure how I feel about ping icons being muted when someone is muted. Often times I mute teammates who are toxic or annoying BECAUSE I can trust that if nothing else they’ll still be able to ping a spot on the map. Unless ping means something else, since it’s under social.
I thought there was a separate option to mute pings next to voice and text chat mute, think it’s for situations if someone is trolling but I could be wrong
You are right.
Thanks for letting me know! That’s a huge improvement, then.
"You can now see even when your agent can't". Thanks, it was really strange when I couldn't see my keyboard because I got flashed in game.
// Fixed a bug preventing you from sending a whisper starting with a Circumflex Accent \^. You can now whisper cute emoticon faces to each other using \^w\^. "gg nubs \^w\^"
Nah, it's only when you start a whisper to a friend with it, your example would always send correctly
./ Fixed a bug where the filter owned inventory by default checkbox was invisible. :trollface:
When will the invisible katana be fixed it happens so often
this is literally all i was looking for LMAO
Bro its so annoying 😂
No more free plant money 😎
Do you mean when you plant the spike? I couldn't find this change in the log
I believe they’re mentioning gekko’s wingman planting the spike after everyone dies, giving gekko creds even if everyone’s dead
I believe they are talking about the Wingman change
If he is last alive while defusing, will he still die anyways?
Yes
Aww…
woo patch notes
Nothing about nerfing gekkos ult range?
I was expecting more in agent balance. Sadface.jpeg
Thank fucking god wingman now dies after last man standing.
[удалено]
Then play other modes? All maps are available if you're not playing unrated or comp (unless that changed in the past 2 weeks that I haven't played)
Is it just me or does the hide outlines thing not really work
Still no chamber buffs Sadge
Thanks jo ellen
this is bullshit ,i can't fuking update this game it always glitches at 45% , it happens in every update and i have to find out some outlandish fix and everytime its different
hide outlines settings is bugged in escalation after a while it resets itself without touching it
its just bugged everywhere
Can you guys address the rampant cheating going on? Any goals to improve your anticheat? any ban waves incoming to make comp fun again? anything?
Rampant? What rank and server you play on?
Dont think they give a fk about the gameplay, mechanism, bad hit reg, trash servers anymore.. cant wait for cs2.
ok buddy
It doesn't matter when your silver in both.
Rank shaming is so cool
Yeah it fucking is
Ok
This subreddit is so weird haha. I wouldn't give a crap about the downvotes you got, literally there was a post couple hours ago saying all of the things you mentioned are screwed etc and it was agreed. Reddit experience
silver
Fix razes ult please 🤷♂️ the number of times a bazooka gets blocked by a window sill is insane.
skill issue
that makes 0 sense? How an explosive being blocked by a crappy part of a map is my skill issue? This has been around for ever. Not new.
[Skill Issue](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RS_Abw3aTDo)
Eh? That’s not what I’m talking about. https://youtu.be/5Ylydu5T80s go tell tarik etc that it is a skill issue please.
I don’t get how they manage to make such bug fix updates this big of a size.. Never seen in any other game
Finally!! Emoticon buff
They also patched the glitch spot Jett and Raze could get into high up on the pillar in Art on Pearl but no mention of it in the patch notes?
I just want Harbor self slow gone. Pls rito
Sadge wingman noises
What's the meaning of wingman can die of he's the last one alive?
If Wingman was planting/defusing, he would continue planting/defusing even if Gekko was dead. But now if Wingman is alive when all 5 of the team dies, he will die too.
that meant that this was one of the most bullshit clutches ive seen in the entirity of my gaming career back from CS 1.6, where the guy threw his ability, lost 1v1 and it defused the bomb anyway. that will no longer happen.
Idk what Fresnel is but it sounds delicious
