To be honest the WORST part about Valorant is the UI. Everything is in a confusing place and nothing is organized efficiently. Burrito games could you hire a new UX/UI team and redo all of it for the next patch?
Next patch (or one after) has a bunch of changes that should bring the experience up a bit. We're still resolving a lot of leftover weirdness, experiments and incomplete work from pre-beta and beta. The list of to-dos is very long. Thanks for your patience.
The 1st point is especially weird, since the same thing is already implemented in the player cards menu.
But imo, these are all good changes.
Put all of the things I have unlocked in one place (i.e grouped at the start)
Make it clearer when an option is locked
Make it clear whether buddies are available or already assigned
Make it easier to see the actual buddy (they're tiny and semi transparent)
Agree, and all are coming.
There's a lot more, of course. We can't promise we're going to fix all of the issues in the first few patches but we see your frustration and feel much of the same the pain our...
Read moreI just love how it feels like every update, the order or placement of the buttons change lol. Jokes aside, the layout is clean and hopefully one gets decided on soon! Keep up the good work on the game!
This will taper off soon. We're still finalizing a bunch of stuff from the beta, so there will be changes for another patch or two. After that we'll leave things alone, I promise.
I know you’ve probably heard or seen this one hundred times but the toggle walk is broken. Please. I miss this game. My tiny brain can’t hold shift, walk, stop, shoot, run, walk again, and shoot all at the same time.
It is known, and regrettable. Team is working on a fix.
If there's one thing I really care about in my games, it's consistency.
PLEASE move the buttons every update, it's genuinely hilarious to listen to my friends rage when they leave the range to ready up for a game via the exit & logout button
Raising that skill ceiling.
I think the new button sizes and positions are great , if you HAVE to have the logout button there for now. 👍
I wanted a little checkbox that remembered your last preference, but it has to be a button for now. We'll get it sorted out.
You all can direct your frustration at me.
This is one of those things where I have feedback from both sides, where people were hitting logout accidentally when it was in top, and now on the bottom. Depending on where your mouse is coming from you are more likely to hit one or the other. It's fundamentally flawed.
I have a bigger redesign of this and related things coming, which will resolve this issue for good and for everyone.
PS: For now we have to include a logout button, unfortunately, as it's required by the platform.
Fair point, maybe an option to enable it just on sage? We already have the health bars on the scoreboard, I don’t think any other agent really needs it
I need to verify but I think they only show up for Sage. If that's not the case then we have a bug.

Maybe Valorant can have shoe cosmetics, like how CSGO has gloves and TF2 has hats 🤔 🤔 🤔
Tactical clogs.
U cant even see your own feet in the game 💀
But what if you could see your own shoes...
My brain doesn’t even register it’s Cypher when his hat isn’t on so I agree with you on this
But what if he had customizable shoes...
Idea: Have a small upwards arrow next to the scrollbar that lets us expand the bar into a tiled inventory like OP mentioned while hiding/drastically reducing the size of the weapon preview.
Grid view mode is on the road map!
I agree. I also find it extremely confusing.
What parts have been extremely confusing? I'm all ears.
Thanks for the write-up! Few notes for your consideration/follow-up:
Sorry it's not working as smoothly as you'd like. As the UX designer I'm happy to shed a little light on a few of these:
Yes ofc.
I have my jump bound to space and mwheeldown.
Sometimes ingame my mousewheel stops working. It has happened a few times.
I tried to do some research and tried to remember if i did anything in particular to make this happen.
My theory is: In the game where the problem has occured, i saw a "communication wheel" which i opened by mistake. When the wheel is open, you have to use mousewheel to navigate it and when it closes again, my scrollwheel does not jump anymore.
I have fixed it once by going back to the wheel and doing some thinggs i cant remember (closing it properly?) and my scrollwheel jump came back.
I will try to do some more research ingame and inform you :)
I'll look at the wheel's logic again and see if we missed something, and try to get a repro based on your description. Thanks for the report!
I am still having this problem after release day
Can you describe your specific issue?
Buddies are bugged. They should be displaying like the others, with owned items at the front of the line.
We're also going to add a filter to only show owned items. Soon.
Upcoming patch has a little tooltip that points it out after you complete the tutorial. Should help.
Could there also be a way to know how to obtain the skins? I.e, some text in the corner saying shop, battlepass, contract, etc?
Also working on it!
