    Valorant feels like the most inconsistent FPS I've ever played

    Posted: 13 Sep 2020 06:07 AM PDT

    I've played thousands of hours of FPS games. Sometimes I have bad days, bad games.

    But NEVER in all those thousands of hours have I had games were I have felt as inconsistent as Valorant.

    The main problem is not even with my performance or my aim.

    It's that some games the Peeker's advantage feels 100x worse than others, with the same ping differences. Some games I don't even have a fighting chance, I just get one-tapped every round.

    The weird thing is that this is MATCH specific. From round to round my performance is fairly consistent within each match. One match everything feels fine and I have a fighting chance, the next I literally die to what feels like 5 aimbots on the enemy team.

    It's like some games I'm being put in a server that just says "fuck your connection in particular" and I die before even being able to fight back.

    My main account is Immortal 2. I recently made a new one and am currently Plat. This inconsistency is so bad that some games I feed 5-20 on my Plat account, as an Immortal player. I have NEVER in my LIFE had such bad games on secondary accounts in thousands of hours of CS GO or Overwatch.

    I refuse to believe that for some magical reason I'm only turning into a complete bot in certain selected matches only in Valorant and in no other game I've ever played and then I'm 100% completely fine the next match I play 5 minutes later.

    Concept: If the Reaver Melee Had Color Variants

    This would honestly be an insta-buy for me. My favorite one out of these 4 is the top left that really looks like CSGO's "doppler sapphire". I know the skin team said they would be testing different colors for melees in an upcoming bundle, so I hope they bring back the reaver and do this!!

    Valorant Can Output Surround Sound Audio

    Posted: 13 Sep 2020 05:32 AM PDT

    Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCgq8T-GvWQ

    I haven't really found anybody going deep into Valorant's audio. Hopefully this gets more people looking into what's possible with this info while we wait for riot to implement HRTF.

    When your playback device in Window's setting is configured to something other than Stereo, Valorant will output to the other channels as well. So if your playback device is configured to "7.1 Surround", Valorant will output 8 channels of audio.

    Even though the game's setting only shows "Stereo" and the Q&A from riot says the game is only in Stereo, I can confirm there are sounds in all channels because I route my computer's audio through a DAW and am able to solo listen individual channels.

    What this means is people with surround sound actually have an advantage by being able to differentiate audio coming from the front and rear. This also validates claims from those who swears by virtual surround software because it is technically possible. I didn't believe it before I found this because it doesn't make sense to create surround sound from stereo (2 channels), but multichannel audio from Valorant exists.

    I recorded a video and all audio channels while I move around in the game and created multiple clips to isolate pair of audio channels so you can listen to it with regular stereo headphones. I also made 2 stereo downmix with the audio.

    Here's a playlist with all the videos I will individually link with description below

    https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVn4J-MjY0_OnsmGLz0Uu1Q2QIlJ-ak-3

    You listen to and download the audio here

    https://splice.com/daveewin/valorant-audio-test

    Videos of Isolated Pairs

    Front Pair: L/R https://youtu.be/hoRbt4FvFlQ

    Rear Pair: RL/RR https://youtu.be/z6EkjxKcvYU

    Side Pair: SL/SR https://youtu.be/qHoNMjHY5U0

    Center/Subs: C/LFE https://youtu.be/qiad_P8IjJs

    Stereo Downmixes

    LCR Panned

    To mimic Valorant's stereo downmix, I bus the channels together with LCR panning.

    Hard Left: L, RL, SL

    Hard Right: R, RR, SR

    Center: C, LFE

    The result sounds pretty normal.

    https://youtu.be/w_pwSyK2gAM

    3D Panned

    Here I tried 3D panning using AMBEO orbit.

    The results sounds weird at first because we're so used to the sound sounding a certain way, but there are differentiation between sounds in front of you vs sounds behind you.

    https://youtu.be/Lj0I8GAARtM

    AMBEO plugin I used can be found here https://en-us.sennheiser.com/ambeo-orbit

    The AMBEO setting on each channel are all the same

    - Elevation: 0

    - Reflections: off

    - Clarity: 0

    - Width: 0

    Azimuth were different for each channel

    L/R: -30/30

    RL/RR: -150/150

    SL/SR: -90/90

    I chose these Azimuth values based on quick ingame testing while soloing each channels.

    Each channel seems to produce audio in a 90 degrees cone. Each channel overlap a bit with their adjacent channels

    Finally got Immortal 1 on 180 ping

    Posted: 13 Sep 2020 01:08 PM PDT

    Hi, as the title says, I finally got to immortal 1. I play on 180ms of latency because I live in South Africa and we get routed to EU servers so grinding the game was very difficult even though we'll most probably never get servers, the experience was fun

    What's Your Valorant "Pet Peeves?"

    Posted: 13 Sep 2020 09:40 AM PDT

    As a Silver III, I've got two.

    1. Soft-locking a character for the entirety of the selection, only for someone, usually the last person, to choose them. Bonus points when they're not having a good game that day and under perform.

    2. Being in a spray 1v1, and they're missing all their shots until they hit a lucky headshot out of nowhere mid-spray. (Maybe I'm just bad, lol.)

    Just want to know if anyone else has these things that annoy you to living hell.

    just some valorant shenanigans

    Posted: 13 Sep 2020 12:56 PM PDT

    I flicked twice today

    Posted: 13 Sep 2020 08:23 AM PDT

    When I watch professional and saw them flick , just seemingly turn the gun and instantly headshot within a second or even less is just soooooo satisfying , I'm not that good at FPS games so I think not much of it , that I may never could do that , but today I flicked when I walk passed a door so fast that I literally fall of my chair when I headshot them in amazement , like I couldn't believe it , I can actually do it , muscle memory fk yeah , it's just been a long time since game make me feel this excited.

    most knives have a little hole on the end that you could clip something to, wouldnt it would be sweet if you could put buddies on them

    [Feature Request] Ability to add a "Clan Tag" for groups of friends

    Posted: 13 Sep 2020 11:22 AM PDT

    Similar to in league of legends, you can have a sort of "Clan Tag" for your team. I think this would be great to have in valorant!

    I have not used a aim trainer since when i got my Computer which was 7 months ago. Valorant has changed a lot and made me get use to cross hair placement and other important . It is also the game that made me get better at aiming. Here is my progress after playing valorant for about 5 months.

    Posted: 13 Sep 2020 01:10 PM PDT

    If you have wifi that you know is unstable and disconnects a lot, please dont play comp.

    Posted: 12 Sep 2020 11:08 PM PDT

    I'll probably get flamed for this but it needs to be said. I've had so many teammates that DC for half the game and come back and say they have shit wifi. So please for the love of god, if you have shit wifi or even any wired internet that disconnects a lot, please just stick to unrated. Its so infuriating knowing that a match could've been a lot closer if we had 5 players because most of the rounds we lost were when we had 4.

    I'm sick of crazy 1v5 clutches on this subreddit

    Posted: 12 Sep 2020 01:09 PM PDT

    Since day one of this subreddit, there have been always the same videos. A 1v5 clutch that goes for 1:30 minutes. And that was perfectly okay back then and is still okay every now and then. But 90% of the content of this subreddit are just the same video over and over again with different agent or a different map. And if something super hilarious happened just make the video like 20-30 seconds so I don't have to watch 1 minute of slow-walking until the funny thing happens.

    Also yes, there are funny videos and montages that probably took a lot of effort to make but I don't think it fits to upload a 7-10 minute video on a subreddit, aka just upload it on YouTube and then share the link.

    This was just my opinion, I don't think this sub is bad, I just think it could be way better than it is now.

    Anyone else here a “Good Cs Player” but just an okay/decent “valorant player” ?

    Posted: 13 Sep 2020 12:39 PM PDT

    Curious. I thought I was gonna own in this game coming from thousands of hours in counter strike, but I only peaked plat. I'm an Aimer with just ok game sense i suspect. Idk what it is because I see people with 0 counter strike experience completely owning with a better rank than me? Interesting
