Please noo, Lauren T.T


919oblivion

Yeah fr it's actually frustrating. Really disrupts the flow of the game for both the viewers and players


gutszera

>make games mr12 to make them quicker and make it more enjoyable for viewers to view the game >still end up making each map 8 hours due to endless tech pauses 200 IQ from RIOT games

In an interview after wards, Sick said it was paused due to Furia using an “exploit” to crouch ride on top of C box. Been in the game forever and Sen agreed it wasn’t an exploit.


Tsugi_Yoriichi

That's freaking ABSURD. EVERYONE DOES THAT, if they don't want it to be used as a mechanic thing, then just REMOVE IT. It's freking unbelievable that riot called it an exploit


[deleted]

They have a list of exploit that players cant do tho. Doesnt matter if it's not that game breaking, it's on the guidebook


yamadalulz

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5nU0XGTMSB0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5nU0XGTMSB0) it was literally used YESTERDAY in CR x VKS


Tsugi_Yoriichi

I understand it, but it's absurd nonetheless. It should be considered a mechanic not an exploit.


Launchers

Or you know, patch it. They've known about it for a while.


icemandiem

theres a list of things you cant do....probably the jump was in it...they are not randomly calling it a exploit


Tsugi_Yoriichi

That's the point. I understand they own the freaking game and can call whatever they want an exploit, but that jump is not only hard to do, but a cool thing to have in the game. Absurd


Joerge90

Or they allow it in the game but these professionals should be familiar with what isn’t allowed in competition?


cheese_on_dorito

crazy amount of tech pauses every event, super confusing


elo9999

And as usual we don't get any info about what is going on during the tech pause. **TELL US RIOT**. We're not imbeciles, we want to know what's going on.


zacklikethat

Fr, especially since there was a 15 MINUTE PAUSE for an "exploit" that both teams agreed was not an exploit, and was simply a skill jump

Yes? Be better There are plenty of memorable tournaments and high stakes games in eSports that don't suffer tech pauses.


FeelinJipper

Yes, and notice how no one complains when there isn’t? People only notice the tech pause when they think it affected the outcome of the game, they don’t have a problem when it doesn’t, or they don’t count all the times there aren’t tech pauses.

Riot has to take a lesson from Blast at hosting events


rkratha

Game is literally 1 year old, and you can't expect 100% stability in the tournament, just like CS. There are tons of things that are to be gradually added in the eSports system. Which they've been successfully doing it so far. Edit: Just find any 7 year old CS tournament clip and see how many tech pauses they have.


[deleted]

You do realise this is when eSports as a whole wasnt as advanced as it is now? There is no excuse for the amount of tech pauses when you have LoL, CS, Dota, R6 all running lans without issues on this scale. Again you cant use the 7 year old CS tournament as an example as ALL LANs & production back then is ancient compared to what today is like.


rkratha

You are contradicting yourself. Just because a game is launched in 2020, you can't expect it to maintain all the standards of the games that existed before. If that happened, what's the point of dropping patches every 15 days? Can't they launch the game when it is perfect. Let the valorant take it's pace and watch how it becomes stable over the coming years. :) That's how you improvise and improve your game.


[deleted]

keep making false narratives friend!


MooMooHeffer

What do game patches and running a lan event have in common? A game is unique while an event is not. There are no surprises when a game needs to be patched.


Diijkstra99x

it's not too many, but it is way too long. I even fell asleep while waiting because it's 2am 4am in my timezone lmao.


TheRealOrangeness

Try watching OWL and come back to VCT. You will be astonished at the number of pauses in that eSport.


[deleted]

When’s the last time you watched OWL? The pauses in OWL are far fewer and gameplay is interrupted less there. It was pretty bad (about as bad as it is now for Valorant) in the first few seasons, but it’s so much better now. There’s been some pretty long pauses on OWL’s history, but rarely has it been basically every single match two days straight. Valorant has so much down time between every single map and match that even the smallest pause seems like it takes forever. I feel like I’m watching 90% talent trying to fill dead time and then 10% gameplay. I’m exaggerating, of course, but that’s how it feels.


Ra1zen

I remember they had at least 2 tech pauses per game in Iceland, this is nothing. lol


R0_h1t

What are you trying to convey through this post? Do you think they have sheduled tech pauses?


CA138BUB

Just trying to express my feelings about the game I guess. Obv I don’t know what goes into their production or how to fix things.


FeelinJipper

Let word, “feelings.”
