We have this one laptop with an i3 and a Intel HD 3000. It's so old it had one of those mouse nubs. Always hate testing on that one. It's so old/slow it crashes our profiling tools. The screen is tiny too.

I miss my avalanche Phantom and gold/red luxe variants on my Spectre, though. Are they coming back?

Reposting from elsewhere:

Some of the skins from Closed Beta will come back, but others won't. Whatever does come back will get an update, even if it's slight.

Oh hi!!! I wish I could say if they're returning or not and, if so, when. ;)

Also super glad you love the Prime skins! <3

That's really odd. Do you mind sending me a DM later today? The Player Support team is super slammed (lots of player questions on the first day), so they can't look at things that aren't tickets right now.

Hey friend, can you please answer my question? Will there be color variants for the Prime Axe melee? I would love to color my axe teal/aquamarine like the color scheme on the rest of the skins. Please!!

Unfortunately we aren't doing chroma variants on the Prime Axe. Maybe in the future, but no plans right now. It's nice to hear you like it, though. If we hear this from a lot of players, we'd consider it! :)

I had to look through again to think about it but then I remembered. It has to be Dot Exe Ghost. It looks phenomenal! Not to say they all don't, but that Ghost is just so thematically gorgeous!

Mind if I ask if there are some issues with Unlocks at the moment? I just hit Tier 10 on the Battlepass and can equip the Couture Bulldog, but I still can't equip the Kingdom Spectre at Tier 5. Relogging hasn't helped. Just want to know if I'm the only one or not, I'm not in a hurry for the rewards haha.

Thanks for the wonderful game and keep up the excellent work! :D

You're not the only one! The team has seen a few reports of this issue and they're working on a fix now. They're getting a message out soon! Thanks for not getting mad--mistakes happen and we're absolutely want to fix it!

I love that you like the Dot Exe Ghost! I'm partial to the Vandal in that set, but only because I will earn the Omen Ghost eventually so that'll be my go-to Ghost skin. ;)

Edit top post for visibility instead of replying in thread: We do want to have appropriate translations. So while this is definitely not unplayable per se, we want it to be everything ya'll deserve, so our loc team and maps team are talking about how we can do stuff like this better, and we'll take this lesson moving forward :) So thanks for bringing it to our attention!

I have twice had my heart stop while scrolling through post titles. Hopefully it doesn't get me again in a few hours.

the reminders are great indeed. i was ready to flame my teammates, but quickly checked reddit. luckily i saw this post and remembered 'not everyone is global elite in CSGO', so then i quickly changed my ways. all it took was this reminder

also you must be new to the internet if you think saying 'hey we dont do that here' will have any positive effect... lol. if youre gonna stick up for the person being made fun of, you better do it will full commitment & aggression or not at all

Definitely not new to the internet :P. And I have indeed seen it work! But hey, if that language doesn't feel right for you, don't use it. I'm just not an advocate for defending against verbal abuse...with more verbal abuse lol.

What u/aneia said! Thank you so much for saying something so nice! <3 I'm so glad you like the battlepass content. What's your most-wanted item in the current pass?

I submitted some tickets through out, mostly about memory crash dump errors, did any developers, mention these/fix them. Not hating love the game!

We fixed lots of crashes this patch and previous patches. We usually don't put crash fixes in the patch notes since it's impossible for players to know if we fixed their particular crash. We track every single crash and fix ones the biggest ones each patch. Sometimes just having bad memory can cause crashes, if VALORANT crashes often for you consider running a memory test. For context, we expect you to need to play VALORANT for a many many hours before you'd ever see a crash. It's a development metric called Mean time to failure (MTTF) and you can read about it here: ...

I’m soooo glad. For no reason, my FPS would drop at 10-15, which is unplayable (yes, I don’t have a PC made for gaming hahah)

Now, I constantly get 40-50 FPS and it’s SUCH AN AMAZING improvement for the quality of life. I’m know able to play without raging about my FPS’s lmao

Thansk a lot for these changes, it means a lot for me :)

Love to hear it. Honestly this is why we do what we do. It means a lot to hear it.

Hi! Thanks for the hard work over these past few months. I've been enjoying the game a lot.

However my friend seems to be having extreme stuttering issues. I'm certain his PC is capable of running the game, but currently he keeps getting around 20-60fps with extreme frame drops. The game is also taking up around 40% of his CPU.

His specs are I5-7500, a GTX 1660 Ti and 16GB RAM. Any idea as to what could've been causing this? Thanks in advance! :D

I5-7500

I would expect your friend to get much better average and higher performance given these specs. Can you have them contact player support and see if they can gather information and help them?

Off the cuff I'd say check all the settings in game and nvidia control panel to make sure everything is what they expect there.

Unfortunately I can't say :(. But I hope you asking means you loved it!

I love seeing these reminders. Thank you so much :)
If you're interested in helping to shape our community in a positive way, here's a fun fact! Bystander intervention is the most effective method for dissolving a situation with a bully. However, that doesn't mean to start insulting and berating them. Comments like "Hey, we don't do that here," or "They're clearly new, and yelling at them isn't going to help." can be really helpful! (It's better to address the behavior, not the person.) Then, engage with the person who's getting bullied in a positive way. You might root them on, give them gentle feedback on how to improve their gameplay, or even just ask them how their day is going.
Hope this helps :) And thanks again for looking out for our newest recruits!
