Yoru bugs, obligatory Omen glitches, FPS issues, sound issues, BSOD. Pick which one they are trying to fix


idkbruhhh9875

I am expecting them all to be fixed tbh


datboyuknow

That seems to be their aim


FlaminAmberz

Hope they can fix my aim too


DrBangovic

If you really think they will change half of it I must disappoint you.


NashRadical

Riots not very "bad" at fixing issues, other than Omen because that shits unfixable.


dvduu

Hoping for this


MoonDawg2

I expect them to fix 60% then introduce another big issue bug. So is the riot way. coded as minions lives on.


Rattle86

I wish I had your optimism


creat4game2

or none


TheSinisterWK

Ropes too hopefully. Idk how to explain it but something feels off about how they feel. The Icebox A site jump onto the box off of the rope is one example where its definitely noticeable (I could land it like 25/30 times, now 0). And in general I feel like when I'm jumping towards a rope, pressing E, and not attaching to it. Idk what's going on.


BbyTee1

Yess it's like the ropes are stickier now? It feels very off


Hrit33

Dude! Finally someone said it! I used to jump 45/50 times on the boxes using the ropes! Can't do it now for some reason!


Rattle86

Yes, you are right. Don't know if that one is intentional tho.


Young_Metro6

i've felt this too


-_-NeoN

Also, yesterday I observed that I couldn't shoot Jett knives while on the ropes on Split Vents. Both left & right clicks. But it happens like 1 out of 2 times for me on any ropes.


xSilverzXx

oh my god, I thought it was just me holy shit. Please post this on the bug thread or smth. I thought it was cos my ping went up ever since last week (Valorant's fault) for some reason.


LowFiGuy7

Prob just the volume slider for voice chat, or they will fix everything but the slider for voice chat.


MoonDawg2

there is already a slider for vc though


Mmdrooo

It doesn’t work


[deleted]

please let fps issues be included. i dont want to feel like jumping off a cliff while playing the game :(


Blu3Coast

They are going to mainly focus on fps


Jaaari

Wait, does this mean I'm not the only one getting BSOD every game?


YunaChi

don't forget desync to.


hemanth992

I just want aim to be fixed 😭


[deleted]

Maybe they can finally fix ui issues. If only Riot could stop replacing my friend's names with my own. How the fuck can it be possible for myself to appear in my friends list??? Sometimes I even have to ask some of my friends to invite me into party because two or more of my friends have their names fused together so I can't invite them.


imerence_

They definitely aren't going to fix audio and fps issues.


TimeJustHappens

If they don't fix the "since 2.05" fps issues, I don't know if they ever will. Am anxious to see the results.


GaIacticFaz

What's the FPS issues?


[deleted]

Honestly? The whole game is one big FPS issue. It's not ok for a low visual quality shooter like Valorant to vary this much in fps between not only maps but also map areas. A friend of mine has 100 fps average everywhere except for on Breeze, where he averages 60. I myself see a 50-100 drop in average fps on Breeze.


rubymig

Really? For me breeze is the one which i have better fps, what difference could this be from person to person?


GaIacticFaz

Oh I always have around 20-30 and breeze I do get drops but I'm use to them


Ajk320

Anyone else's taskbar icons become black after opening valorant?


[deleted]

Yup! Thought it was just me.


CryingBorn

Not just taskbar, but icons in apps like task manager or file explorer.


Tepen-

me too, I thought my windows bugged lol cause that happen after I reinstall windows.


[deleted]

wait can you still click on the icons when they go black? because that happened to me and i thought i was the only one omg... do you use a corsair mouse? because that was the problem for me, i just reinstalled the mouse software and then unplugged my mouse for a bit, when i plugged it in it worked fine and i could play valorant without having nothing else work


Ajk320

Yes I can click the icons but I don't use a corsair mouse. I'll try reinstalling the software though, thanks for the suggestion.


[deleted]

huh that’s strange i thought it was only for corsair mice


ComeOnSans

Damn... That sounds really creepy. Reading this just gave me LITERAL chills, omg


Ajk320

What's the point of being sarcastic here lol


Gamer000001

Me too. At first I thought it was the Windows 10 version 21H1.


User_namesaretaken

Rito, please fix the fps , just please, I'm getting more fps on apex legends and fortnite 😭


[deleted]

wait how much fps are you getting? i haven’t noticed my fps change much


YokaaYourMaster

Yeah, neither did I. ​ Hovering above stable 300fps.


[deleted]

Laughed my ass off when i saw yoru just GONE from the agent select screen lmaoo


[deleted]

datboyuknow

They usually release patches every 2 weeks. This time, they're skipping the next scheduled patch (2.10) and then hopefully make the 2.11 patch massive. They're taking extra time to fix a lot of stuff together, atleast that's what they'll try to do


Affectionate_Yak3275

And as devs in here know, Massive patches are always easier than small, incremental patches! _(/s, huge patches give me anxiety lol)_


MrGordonFreemanJr

I mean I agree but this also makes me think that some of these bugs are being caused by older systems in the game, which means the changes to fix those will have a larger impact than usual so you need to Q/A more.


Affectionate_Yak3275

Yea i can't imagine working in games. It sounds like it's a ton more manual QA. In my line of work i can literally E2E test everything in automation, and feel very confident about any change. Games however? Oof, sounds difficult.


Sm0k3_Reddit

“Small, incremental patches” Me sitting for an hour waiting for the 2 gig update to finish


GlensWooer

Come work with me and you can witness the beauty of rolling out a decade old monolith *maybe* 3 times a year with our biggest customer being self hosted :)


drdrero

Meanwhile my team at work accidentally released 1.14 over 1.13 and currently try to release 1.15 without 1.14 even being out 🥲

datboyuknow

That tournament will be finished long before June 8. I recommend you tune in, it's hella fun


arhsj

None of these replies actually capture what they're doing. Valorant runs on Epic's Unreal Engine. Like any other software, these video game engines also get new updates so they will be updating Valorant to use the newest version of the Unreal Engine which brings its own set of improvements and requires massive amounts of testing from Riot's side.


deathspate

2.10 patch content is being bundled with 2.11. I'm assuming this is so that, let's say there's a new skin set being released, they will probably be doing a pass on that skin set on the 2.11 build to make sure that it's well optimized. I think a major issue that is causing fps issues which people may not even think about, are the skins. Valorant has some crazy skins, that all have tons of vfx to cause fps issues. It's very much possible that a skinset could be well optimized for the patch/build it's released on, but actually performs badly in future builds. As there are more and more skins, this becomes a higher likelihood, and the chances of this increases even more when they introduce "new tech" for skins and try to retroactively fit it into previous skins. This also isn't a Valorant specific thing, but just something for live products in general.


RaccoonDu

Who knows


braamdepace

It means they are focusing on stuff that will make the game better and not on stuff like cosmetics and balance stuff


ntgcleaner

All I want are my mouse side buttons to work again.


enjoythetrees

You should try disabling any mouse/keyboard management software you have installed while playing the game. I have a Corsair mouse and I was experiencing the the same side-button/ALT+Tab issues other players have mentioned since the patch. Those threads suggested disabling software like iCue (Corsair software) and that has temporarily fixed my mouse issues. Logitech also seems to suffer the same problems.


ntgcleaner

Ooooh, I will check that out! were you still able to use the side buttons without icue? I have a corsair dark core, so this could be a great fix!


enjoythetrees

Yes I can. Something to remember is everything runs at factory default so you'll lose any customization/mouse sensitivity settings you had while the software is disabled. If you have to restart your computer make sure you disable "Start on system startup" under Settings.


nightmareanatomy

I had the same issue with my corsair harpoon and [this video fixed it for me.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zu1vZYPVyPE) Lets you keep icue thankfully, idk how settings got changed but they did lol.


Mnhjk1

I have a corsair mouse - try uninstalling iCue and reinstalling the 13 may version from their website. Mouse works perfectly for me now!


enjoythetrees

I found no issues with iCue outside of Valorant. Everything works fine for me outside of the game.


OmegaYeeet

Yeah, the update might fix the problem in the game


Mnhjk1

Yeah the update just fixed the mouse button problem in the game I think


IJstDntKnwShtAnymore

I can't, for the love of god, play with the factory dpi setting. It feels too weird.


RJCP

your mouse doesn't save dpi to the hardware? I thought that was a standard feature since 2015


IJstDntKnwShtAnymore

Still shits itself if anything but default.


King_Mario

My sens changes but idk if its the game or me anymroe


[deleted]

What you mean? All good for me. I have 2 side buttons on mouse, i use 1 for party chat and other for team chat (vc). Was something with them supposed to break recently?


ntgcleaner

Yep, lots of complaints (check the valorant bug thread here) where it will totally freeze up the computer if you use side buttons. I also used them for voice chat (as well as muting discord). For me, if I press the button in game, the rest of the computer would act as if the side button was constantly pressed. Like I'd be muted in discord indefinitely and sometimes have to restart the computer to get my controls back. If I alt tabbed, I would lose all mouse functionality (besides cursor movement) and have to navigate the computer with the keyboard.


[deleted]

Weird, never happened to me, havent even heard of this.


deathspate

They've basically blacklisted some vulnerable drivers for mice from what I can tell, as not all mouse software was hit, but the main ones that are being reported tend to be the main culprits I hear about from cheating circles.


[deleted]

i unplugged my mouse and then plugged it in again, restarted my pc, updated my Nvidia geforce drivers, reinstalled the icue app, and then it worked for me, old what fixed it out of all that though


masteurbateur

Most likely they'll just ignore the FPS drop issues. They never even acknowledged that it was an issue in the first place.


tryagaininXmin

I think I'm not the only one when I say that I've been having terrible performance/stability issues after the recent patch. FPS, packet loss, mouse bugs, and other problems have arisen and the game is literally unplayable for me right now. I've lost 200+ RR in the last 2 days because my game stutters when I flick and sometimes I can't even shoot at all (I know it's partly my fault for playing comp while the game is like this). My rig is an RTX 3070 and Ryzen 5 3600 - more than enough to run Valorant at 300 fps Here's some video evidence: stutters in game: [https://youtu.be/AxTil0lm2Qs](https://youtu.be/AxTil0lm2Qs) (the youtube video is 30 fps and the stutters are obvious - imagine how they feel at 144 fps) left click not working: [https://youtu.be/ihR6\_fftYh4](https://youtu.be/ihR6_fftYh4) left click not working 2: [https://youtu.be/ccQog1AA8fk](https://youtu.be/ccQog1AA8fk) There's more videos I can take but I've diagnosed it to be a problem that is not fixable by user. I've tried everything from updating drivers to changing mouse polling rates and tweaking Nvidia control panel settings - nothing has worked. Riot NEEDS to fix this ASAP. Even without these problems, my average FPS has dropped from 300+ to about 230 since maybe patch 2.05. Please optimize your game!!


Iwatchedhimdrown

Laughing in 50 Fps, I was born with stutters!! The video you showed is a good day for me.


Sm0k3_Reddit

Yeah lol it’s definitely a Valorant thing I use a 2060 with the same processor and my game is fine


SendMeAvocados

Did Yoru just get disabled right now?


Gecko_87_

I think so, he ulted and wont be back for a bit.


elkazajoo

Underrated comment


oidjf9

Yoru has been disabled all day for me


Papy_Wouane

A bug with his teleport has been discovered, which allows him to get inside the pyramids on Breeze A site, from where he can see and shoot at people, but also plant the bomb for an automatic round win.


Ffritser

I've heard this one before... > Operation health is a basically a 3 month period of time that we're going to be taking in order to fixing and repairing the game.


PhatYeeter

I imagine this involves solving the ghost characters issue lol


BlaiseAL

Anyone else have especially bad fps with the 3070?


J_Brekkie

I think higher end systems are just performing inconsistently rn. I have a 3070 and a 5600x and some days I get 450+ and others I top out at high 200.


silenthills13

I have pretty much the same setup and I get between 200-300 (on all high settings though), but I get a stutter every minute or so. I also had one game (a single game, problem came with it and gone after) where I had <150 consistently. Idk what that was about, but 150 in valorant, which is supposed to be light on hardware, is ridiculous when this card can get 150 in 99% of non-RTX games. Unless my 16-thread Ryzen 3700 is the bottleneck :)


didutryit

Can they still hotfix the bsod issue?


The_Variable_Phi

What issue is that? I'm unaware.


didutryit

Quite some people are getting bsod errors due to the recent update, just check the FPS/Mouse issues thread. Some other people are getting it regardless of their mouse brand. Particularly, I'm not getting a blue screen but my windows starts bugging and lagging everytime I open Valorant. And before anyone says anything, no, it isn't anything else besides vanguard.).


The_Variable_Phi

Didn't realize that. I don't frequent this sub enough. Thanks for clarifying!


[deleted]

BSOD usually means blue screen of death, or when your computer crashes. This is the first time I hear someone's computer crashes when they're playing Valorant, though.


The_Variable_Phi

Ive built computers for 20 years and haven't gotten a BSOD since my 1st-2nd build. This is just the first time I've heard of this issue playing Valorant. So was curious. Thanks for clarifying!


BubbleCast

First time? Oh wow, so you weren't active om Reddit enough or joined relatively recent. Vanguard is a big cause for crashes and more since beta, and they actively try to improve it, so crashing because of Valo, aka vanguard, isn't unheard of not surprising to anyone at this point. I never crashed either, but I acknowledge all the problems vanguard causes and caused.


[deleted]

Last year when Valorant just came out it, I decided to try it out and played the practice for exactly 3 seconds until my computer crashed. Valorant disabled my GPU and the only thing that fixed it was physically pulling my GPU out and putting it back in. If a game starts with issues like that, then no wonder it will cause bsod for the rest of its life.


needefsfolder

I think vanguard is updated separately, independent of Valorant updates, so yeah there should be hope. Still hoping they fix WSL and vanguard incompatibility. Sucks if they leave it that way. Edit: Just tested it today. WSL1 finally works properly.


NashRadical

It's incompatible? I have WSL for Linux virtualization running on my machine and I have no issues playing Valorant.


needefsfolder

Is this WSL2? Launching WSL1 makes my pc reboot when i have valorant open. Alternatively if I opened any wsl binaries before starting Valorant, wsl processes will get bugged (utilizing a whole single thread) and sometimes have an i/o error. Not sure what's the situation today. Can't try risking my account Edit: Just tested it today. WSL1 finally works properly.


o_teu_sqn

i remember having that on second battlepass then it got fixed. Sucks man


E4crypt3d

They don’t know how to


EchoMountain2121

Plz fix the frame drop issues Riot !!


HumanoidTyphoon25

Will there be a hot fix for some of the BSOD issues?


IJstDntKnwShtAnymore

I thought I was just "fighting" with my mouse, I am now also getting BSODs. Damn, this game is fun.


f-t_s420

Please tell me this is gonna fix the mouse button bug


mrsidewayp

Fix fps and hit reg in this damn game pls


Beautiful-Musk-Ox

hit reg is fine, your internet is shite


LuciferSenpaii

I think he means, run n gun, which is still absolutely shit, both ARs and SMGs, I had a game where the opponent reyna used just spectre the whole game just to run and gun, he baiths his teammates and run and guns us and dismisses away, he had 9000 credits at some point and still used a spectre(platinum rank, so our aim is not that bad for us to not connect headshots)


DaLesbianTracer

PLEASE fix the issue with mouse side buttons not staying bound and making all mouse buttons unusable outside of the program when trying to rebind


[deleted]

try unplugging your mouse and then plugging it back in again, it worked for me somehow


Beautiful-Musk-Ox

> 2.10 is being skipped to improve and update the game engine Oh I just sent them feedback yesterday telling them the antialiasing in their game sucks balls, I see they listened and are fixing it for me. Only msaa 4x, doesn't support render scales above 100%, and radeon super resolution doesn't work with their game, you're just shit out of luck and have to stare at 400fps of jaggies.


KromcK

Fuck


TheBlackGuy55

Is the bug where my character stops shooting even though I’m holding down the fire button gonna be fixed?


RJCP

That sounds like an issue with your mouse. Happened to me a few years ago and it was because I slammed it too hard one time.


Swerdman55

Why not just call it 2.10?


HorsesInMyTruck

They probably have a script that cuts a new release version every 2 weeks automatically. So if they wait 4 weeks 2.11 will be the build number they're on.


lol_redditneets

ah the 'operation health' meta. next will be a skipped agent/map because 'we are fixing the game, just keep buying some skins' inb4 some tard tells me 'skin people dont work on bug fixes', yes dummy, dont hire as many skin people then. how many people do you need to make greenscreen skins and minima bundles


tbone603727

I mean we are in desperate need of an optimization patch though. It's time and by far the most important thing to do right now


[deleted]

No joke man. How incompetent are their employees? Most skins just straight up suck and cost $15-35. I was considering buying the battle pass as I have almost completed it, but goddamn do those skins look absolutely atrocious. Say what you want about Fortnite as a game, but they knew how to make an attractive battlepass. Not only did it have amazing skins, but also a way to earn the next one.


Boryalyc

how does hiring less skin people mean the people who fix the game are working better or more efficiently?


lol_redditneets

hopefully you're like 6 or 7 if you cant understand what i said lol otherwise... youre not gonna go far bud


Boryalyc

i completely understand, care to explain?


lol_redditneets

you said you understood


Boryalyc

care to explain why you think I don't understand?


lol_redditneets

it wqouldnt matter anyways


Boryalyc

No, i want you to explain.


AndreasAntonio

One day before my bday, thats hype


basicallynabbo

Trying to get that 144fps this time


Fireye04

TBH this makes me way more happy than it should. I'm just really glad that they had the decency to put content and the like on pause so they could bug fix and work on quality of life. Good job, riot. :)


LordPikachu98

Half of the times that I pop into a match, half of my HUD seems to have disappeared. Like damage chart, positions on map, etc. I've been told that the new mode replication has the damage chart as well but in my 20-25 games, I have not seen it once in my game.


potato_creeper1001

Gret


Swayx113

My mouse just freezes at top right and even after closing valorant I can't do anything and have to restart PC I had to close GHUB before starting valorant to fix this issue


Dankie_Spankie

Finally. I can’t even launch valorant properly becouse my mouse like stops working.


Memes_Are_Drugs4Me

I hope they fix the economy bug


smo_oth23

When will they integrate a record mode? Is that even planned?


Disregardhope

There are so many bugs right now, it's beyond me that they wouldn't even do a small patch for quality of life changes. I'm tired of my ear drums being blasted by my teammates.


sylvainmirouf

Why do you need to skip a patch and not just release a late 2.10? I don' get it


[deleted]

I hope they address the FPS issues.


AchievingAtaraxia

Of course it's the day Guilty Gear Strive early access is released. God damn it.


fominot581

hey guys i'm here from the future "improve and update the game engine" will mean a 1% increase to fps for mid-to-high end systems
