No worries, I get it. I got the honor to meet you at champions last year where you explained the strenuous skin process to me. I love the work you do. Also appreciate the swift response. I'm just another player awaiting the replay system, but that's not your field. Thank you for your work.
No way! I didn't get to talk to too many people so that's awesome if we had a longer chat about skins! Nice to run into you again but this time online!
This one in particular is controlled by Dynamic Shadows. Unfortunately in the past when we try to adjust this, we'd have to make sacrifices on either performance or quality. Since this is controlled by the Cast Shadows setting, you can turn it off while keeping material/texture quality high.
I like KAY/O because mechanically he just throws stuff.
Pink skins were a big complaint last year. They're just slow to adapt to community feedback on these things. Which is the real issue tbh
I agree we are slow to adapt to feedback on skins. But that’s because it takes a long time to make skins! We’ll get there slowly as we figure out what you all want (not just Reddit but the wider VAL playerbase) and get working on making it happen!
Random question how does the play offs work on April 28 because we might be the only team to qualify in our division
If you're the only person in queue for your division, you won't get a tournament but we'll grant winner rewards for you in the week following.
It’s a bug. We’re fixing it! Sorry this one slipped thru.
The araxys bulldog is actually so smooth compared to the Vandal
I’m waiting for the Araxys Bulldog in my store
i think kill sounds matters for me more it is the only reason why i rate 2021 champions vandal so high
Champs 21 is peak kill sound
u/riot_preeti alt account lmao
Close but I don’t like the Elderflame Operator
Xerofang black variant is my go-to right now
I agree except for Kuronami, that thing is weird
Edit: I’m boutta get downvoted to hell and I’m ready for it
I downvoted
Yoink. Thanks.
The bug is fixed in the live game and the skin levels are back on! https://twitter.com/VALORANT/status/1786214171903946824
Thank you for commenting and confirming for everyone! I’d love a riot gun buddy for my services as the messenger ;) lol. appreciate you guys reaching out and replying to the mass posts that have popped up on the sub about this issue.
Np, we feel bad about the competitive integrity issue and also feel bad that folks can't use their skins.
Judging by this tweet it seems to be an actual thing
Yup, it's real (the SEN tweet is a meme tho). That's why we've disabled certain levels on certain skins: https://twitter.com/VALORANT/status/1786098435017564296
If anyone wants an answer as to why, the devs have temporarily disabled some of the skins upgrades due to a bug with seeing enemies through walls. Here is the link to the tweet announcing this temporary change: https://x.com/valorant/status/1786098435017564296?s=46&t=X3P56ewOxg_3siz_NWq8WA
Sorry folks, this is right. We're working on a fix for all of these! We're sorry we had to disable these levels but we didn't want the competitive integrity to affect your games. Likewise pro teams are not allowed to use these until they're fixed.
We turned off certain levels for certain skins due to the competitive integrity issue (accidental wallhacks): https://twitter.com/VALORANT/status/1786098435017564296
"overly disruptive in the interim" They heavy heavy nerfed the most used agent in the game lol. How are they going to be more disruptive than that?
I talked about this a bit on Twitter, it's hard to convey the context in that few characters. Masters Shanghai itself is on 8.08, but they'll play on 8.07 until then. So, our hope was that by getting these changes out for 8.08, teams will have to time to actually adjust to them before having to play on them competitively rather than flipping things immediately. We also wanted to get ahead of Cypher and Viper and are trying to be more proactive with balance changes this year.
