[2022] VALORANT Patch Notes 4.07

SERVER UPDATES

• Added a new set of servers in Latin America, which should help with latency in that region
  • Scheduled to turn on not long after 4.07 is live!

WEAPON UPDATES

• Bulldog and Stinger now delay firing inputs while bringing up the weapon to aim down sights (ADS)
  • Prevents you from getting burst mode accuracy improvements before they finish raising your weapon.
  • Adds a slight cost to the decision to switch to burst firing mid-combat.
  • You can still begin firing immediately while switching back to full auto/hip fire mode.

AGENT UPDATES

The VALORANT Agents have been busy with a pretty frightening problem. Explore around the Shooting Range to find out what they're up to.

STORE UPDATES

• Load times for the VP purchase page should now load in a matter of seconds (previously, it would take more than thirty seconds in some instances)

SOCIAL UPDATES

• Added new detections for different AFK-like behaviors in rotating game modes
  • Friendly reminder that discriminatory behavior is not tolerated in VALORANT, and if brought to our attention, we will be reviewing the incidents on a case by case basis and determining an appropriate punishment accordingly. We will also be updating our Code of Conduct to be more specific and avoid any misinterpretation. —S&PD Team
