Hi so i'm getting that error. was working fine this morning. haven't installed anything.

i've heard that gigabyte programs (I don't have any installed) make it do that so I decided, "Ok I'll delete all my overclocking stuff"

still hasn't fixed it.

Hello, we have just rolled back a change which we believe caused the issue. If you rerun the game shortcut you should no longer run into the timeout and should be able to launch the game. Let us know if that is not the case. Really sorry about that.

You can probably install it back. This issue was entirely on our end. Removing any programs or restarting would have had no effect.

I've managed to narrow down the problem. I believe its Riot Vanguard. I've uninstalled and reinstalled numerous times, changed folder path,etc to test different riots games. Interestingly, when I cleaned my disc drive of all Riots games, and only installed Runeterra and League. The client became responsive and I could log in and ONLY play League and Runeterra. Installing Valorant along with riot vanguard made the client timeout for me.

It is not a Vanguard issue. It is an issue with the login screen. See my other reply: https://www.reddit.com/r/VALORANT/comments/hqu0sr/timeout_something_unusual_has_happened/fy11lwm?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x
