Just to further update. I haven't noticed this past my first game after the patch. Might be a one off. Thanks for looking into it.

- **Region:** NA

- **Type of Bug:** In Game

- **Description:** Viper's Ult (and brim smoke) are clear on the inside. They are missing their 'fog' effect to obscure vision. Does not happen for everyone every time, this is game breaking as it gives advantages to some players.

- **Video / Screenshot:** https://youtu.be/3ynMEcewTVE

- **Steps to reproduce:** Cast Viper Ult, walk inside

- **Expected result:** Vision is obscured by fog inside

- **Observed result:** Vision is clear allowing players to see the entire inside of the Viper ult - **Reproduction rate:** 1/2 (both in separate ranked games)

- **System specs:** Windows 10, Nvidia GPU

The audio is being static or laggy and my movements are delayed the lag is real in this patch

Yo i had this happen yesterday. couldnt do the dump. The reason is the webpage i had the instructions on was on my main monitor and the crash makes it impossible to access any other window for more than just maximizing it then valorant pushes to the top. Usually in these scenarios on league of legends I could use WIN key and arrow keys to move the window i need (like task manager) to a side monitor to use it but here that wasn't working, fortunately task manager was already open and minimized on the second monitor or it likely would have taken much longer to get back into game. for users with one monitor I think the only solution would be to restart PC if it happens like it did on my end!

the round ended before bomb went off but sound kept playing till it detonated. i finally closed visual client but CHAT audio was still there. Had to go to process details and end an instance of valorant there before restarting and loading back into the game. I was able to get back in only ...

Not sure if this is related but the game freezing has been a long standing issue. I play too much (at least 4 hours a day) and once or twice a week I'll get the freeze either at the end of round or during buy phase after start of round.

Entire game is frozen but PC isn't (I run windowless mode). Always recovers after 10 seconds or so but when it unfreezes my character is sent in the direction I was last moving. Which seems to indicate the client is still possibly sending data out to the server of the last user input.

Sounds like this issue is just becoming more common rather than new... (from my experience and what I'm reading).

Edit: I was wrong. The issue I mentioned is different. I had the same error occur just now and tried to make a process dump but it didn't make one. Kept saying it was making one then the prompt just disappeared.

We're aware of an issue where the game is freezing at the end of a round for some players. We're looking for more information and need your help - if you encounter this issue, please don't close the game right away!

First, follow this guide to get a process dump from VALORANT while the game is frozen. You can follow this guide to see how to get that - https://support.kaspersky.com/common/diagnostics/12401

If you are able to get a process dump, please send it to me directly!

If you had a freeze and came here to report it but don't have a dump, that's okay too. Please comment in this thread explaining what happened so we can try to nail down any common factors. Thanks!

EDIT: We've put out a fix, let me know if you're still having the issue!

Having to force close the game through task manager because of freezing as others have stated.

Oh I misread reproduction rate, it happened a couple times to me and a couple times to my teammates and opponents in the game that I played, I only got one game in because I didn’t have time for another

For me, I’ve only been playing omen in ranked and it’s only been around when the round is ending, I’m not sure exactly when because the sound cuts out, but oddly enough I can still hear and talk to my teammates. I think it’s the screen freezing but not the game because my teammates said my agent was turning when I was moving my mouse
