We are going to have to push a fix. Hopefully tomorrow.

"talking about this and looking into it" was the same thing said about the quality of life in regards to toxicity in comp games for showing ranks before the match is over. That was in the summer.

I understand it can look similar from the outside, but the game balance team and the folks who make decisions on things like our UI in competitive queue are very different.

:(

I'm the competitive designer, but I can definitely see where it's confusing. Essentially we said "we want less players in iron, we believe that lower ranked players are probably in a lower rank then intended."

So after our changes an iron 1 player will probably end up climbing easier and after a few games may end up in iron 2,3, or bronze 3. This isn't exactly how it will work out, but lower rank players from Iron-Gold should find it easier to climb a tier or two.

This will occur because we lowered the % of the playerbase we want in iron. Because we lowered how many players we want in iron we had to increase how many players should be bronze, silver, and gold.

It is slightly confusing, ranked systems are complicated at times. Just know that most players should be able to climb a few tiers pretty easily, if they are below gold, due to our changes.(you obviously have to play ranked to have the adjustments effect you)

If you ever want to lear...

Thanks for the report. We know it sucks not being able to see your rank info and MH details.

Due to some deployment timing issues between service and client updates we missed this one for this patch. The issue has now been fixed.

Good to know. Thank you!

u/Houseoverhype a reinstall might help with yours. Looks like a different error from the others in this thread.

Before this patch, I did get a pop-up upon launch that told me my graphics driver was out of date and to update to version x.x.xxxxxx.x, etc.

However, I made sure that my graphics driver WAS up to date, and it is still the most up-to-date version that exists. Even after doing that, the game still always told me that my gfx driver was out of date even though it wasn't. Game always played just fine though, no issues.

Thanks!

I can explain this!

So ranked distribution is the % of players in every rank. You can see an example here: https://www.esportstales.com/valorant/rank-distribution-and-percentage-of-players-by-tier (I just grabbed this site at random, I'm not saying the stats they have are valid or invalid, or that I endorse them or anything like that. I just wanted an example for players to look at to help understand what I'm talking about.)

I'm going to be talking about MMR, MMR stands for ...

I could certainly use a hardware upgrade, but the game was working fine this morning before I was asked to install a patch and now I get this message every time I launch

Before this patch did you by chance get a popup warning about graphics being unsupported?

Hey All!

Quick update on this issue: This shouldn't be affecting any players who have downloaded the 1.14 Client Patch, and we've pushed a fix for regions that are still on the previous patch.
