Can you change your GameUserSettings file in a couple of places for me? There are two to check: C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\VALORANT\Saved\Config\WindowsClient - GameUserSettings and C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\VALORANT\Saved\Config(some long string of letters and numbers)
With the game closed, go to both of those files, and change these two lines:
ResolutionSizeX=1920
ResolutionSizeY=1080
LastUserConfirmedResolutionSizeX=1920
LastUserConfirmedResolutionSizeY=1080
Your current one is X= 30000000 and Y=0
I have no clue how you ended up with your settings in that state, but it seems suspicious.
Both are native 1920x1080, they are both set to 1920x1080 in Nvidia control panel.
Since release I have never been able to swap to fullscreen, it just shows a massively stretched screen if i try that I cannot see anything with as seen in the video.
Here's a screenshot of my GameUserSettings when I take it off of read only and launch Valorant.
I have to put the GameUserSettings file on read only if I want to launch the game in fullscreen windowed, but even if I change the resolution to 1920x1080 in the config file and launch it on read only the resolution STILL switches to that awful stretched one.
I don't believe I am using DSR but i'm not sure how I would check that.

Hey there! Just wanted to point out that I included an edit in there :)
EDIT: I should be clear here: When I say a "top percentage of players," I don't mean some crazy high, 98th percentile thing. If we find that NOT ENOUGH folks are completing it, that's a problem, too!
Thanks for responding. Seeing devs actively engaging with the community is awesome!
<3 you engage with us every day. It's the least we can do.
This should really get fixed. The soundfile is indeed connected to the "congrats you won the round" part of most people's brain at this point and it should absolutely not play when there is another player alive on the enemy team!
/u/aeneia Could you look into this? :3
I'll for sure bring it up to the team!
I have a question. Will the bp rewards be on the shop for money in the future? Its not clear atleast for me
I'm not sure about that!
I'll play like 25h a month ish. How long does the battle pass last or does it last forever. I need to know this cause I dont know if I'll be able to get to lvl 9 (my goal for the vandal dot exe skin)
Unfortunately, I'm not totally sure if you'll be able to get it. It depends on mission completions and things like that. Sorry I can't be of more help :(
Speaking of answers we should know, we should probably be able to see xp requirements of future tiers of contracts and the bp. Would have dodged a lot of controversy.
This is a great point - I think general clarity is a pain point for a lot of folks right now :(
What about those who play pugs/scrims? Unfortunately, custom games give no experience. To avoid people idling for rewards there can be a simple list of requirements: cheats off, minimum duration of a match - X (e.g., 20) minutes etc.
Oh! Being clearer on the XP requirements is a really good idea. I'll chat with my team and see if we can make that available somewhere (if it isn't already). Thanks for the heads up!
just so you know, not being upfront about that is a problem.
at 10€ for a battlepass that doesn't give back points to buy the next one, I expect to be able to complete it within my normal playtime which means 2-3 matches a day with some days/weeks off. it works on most battlepass games, like Destiny.
when I read "only top players are meant to get the last rewards", to me it reads "your 10€ will only be worth this much and you'll have to choose if you want to be a sucker for 3€ per level" because I can't magically make time appear while working all day, and Valorant isn't the only game I'd like to play if only to not burn out.
when I see the math on Reddit exceeding what I could put in in any realistic scenario, my first and only reaction is to ask for a refund and never buy it again.
Thanks for sharing your feels on this. I added an edit to help clarify for other players:

We definitely expect that some folks won't complete it, but that's super normal. Not everyone buys the pass with the intention of completing it. They just think, "If I play the amount I normally play, I'll get back enough stuff to make it worth the $10 I spent on it." I'm one of those people lol. So when I say "top %," it includes those folks too. I hope that makes sense!
I would have to disagree with the top tier item being something meaningful that only the top percentage will get. Had I known that was the goal I probably wouldn’t have purchased it.
I believe if we’re paying cash for a battle pass, it’s reasonable to expect that you can comfortably get it in the given time. 20 hours of gameplay a week seems like a rediculous commitment to have to make AFTER investing cash into the pass.
I mentioned this in a previous response, but I’ve paid for battle passes in other games and the first time I can’t complete the pass, I lose interest in all future passes. If I can reasonably acquire all the content I paid for then it’s a waste of money. Maybe Ive just been very fortunate in the games that I’ve played with battlepasses and I’m spoiled to expect that I can acquire content I’ve paid for.

AFAIK, it should be much closer to 10. I hope this helps :)
Could you share some insight on including Radianite points in free part of the Pass? As Radianite points are "useless" for both free players (they have no up-gradable skins) and paid pass users (none of Paid pass skins can be upgraded, right?) and for those who bought some simple skins from the shop, as they also aren't up-gradable. So, only people benefiting from Radianite points are those who already bought Bundle and, probably, bought a Pass, yet half of the Free Pass rewards are Radianite points. Is there any other use planed for them in the future for ftp and non-premium skin users? Right now it doesn't seem like a thought out decision.
Hey there! I can't speak to any concrete plans we have (or haven't) made, but I can say for sure that we're aware of this, and we're working on an alternative for our non-evolving-skin players :). There's a long list of things we want to change and polish, but if we ever wanted to get our game out the door, we couldn't have addressed all those things before launch. This BP Radianite issue is one of them. The good news is, our game is live, meaning we aren't stuck with all these issues! And this is up there on our list of things we want to :) Thanks for asking!

I think that makes sense...if you've got the completionist mindset, it can be super frustrating to feel like the final tier is out of reach. But it definitely shouldn't be 20 hours a week! It should be much closer to 10. (~100 hours over ~2 months, according to SWAGGERNAU7 and Milkcow). I'm curious...does the Battle Pass only feel worth it if you're able to complete it?
If I wasn't on reddit, I wouldn't even know this game had a battlepass. Even after reading this thread, it took a minute pressing everything in the main menu before I found it. If not enough people are buying the pass, this could be a contributor. I appreciate that the menus in this game are clean and not full of advertisement, but the battle pass could use some love.
Oh absolutely. I'm actively working on this right now lol. Thanks for bumping it!
Riot dev in another thread said they will retroactively award progress sometime after they hotfix
Retroactive reward granting is for earned battlepass & contract content, not missions I'm afraid.
Im always on game 9/10 for the mission, and it resets, every, f***, game after the 9, Im going insane
It should be fixed now my friend. Fix was deployed at 11pm last night PST and earlier for EU/Asia
