Same FPS at all settings. Will it get better?

Comment

It's because of some internal issues with valorant. One of the devs made a security change to how an executable worked and it had a drastic impact to fps that hasn't been fully resolved yet. He said it was reverted and fps should return to normal, but clearly that's not the case because before I was getting 240-350avg and now I barely stay above 144.

The security change that was causing performance issues has been well and truly fixed... but there were several other changes that have slipped in causing performance to regress.

Right now we've increased the number of people working on performance issues and so we've got some improvements coming in the next patch. We're also identifying and planning out longer term work to improve performance, especially on high end computers.

It's hard to say for sure but I expect that performance after this next patch will be similar to the performance of the first beta version and then the patch after that should be overall better. (Your mileage may vary, this is just an estimate, etc, etc)

After 7 everything else times out.

Your ISP indicates they're based in Michigan (Manifold Services?) but they send this traffic to us in Atlanta. They appear to be connected to CTS Telecoms as well as Level3/Centurylink. If they routed to us there, they would have much better performance as you would land in Chicago. Can you open a helpdesk ticket with them to see what they can do on their side?

Like really, I f**king played against cheaters in my last three games. Your software is doing literally nothing, just google Valorant cheat download and start working Riot...

GOOD LUCK having a FREE game like this.

Hey mate, sorry you feel that way! Unfortunately there's no way to stop cheaters from trying, it's too lucrative for them because there are people who are willing to pay a lot of money to cheat (weird, right?). We're in this fight for the long haul, and just like we did with League of Legends, we think we'll end up in a good place. We're also pretty confident we'll get there in the not too distant future.

I hope you keep an eye on our progress and give us another shot down the road! ☺️

Went from 50ms when on west coast to 100+ and from 20ms on east coast to 50. Was all fine up until around the ranked patch. I mostly play with west coast friends and can’t play under 100ms and without lag anymore. Going a little crazy trying to identify and fix the issue. Was on the phone with Comcast for five hours two days ago convinced they were throttling me.

Can you please perform a traceroute to 192.207.0.1 and let me know what city you're in.

Tied the Pistol Round. Assuming this is a bug?

Comment

Thank you for posting this! It's super helpful! We've seen (and hopefully fixed) a similar issue where if the spike was planted on the same frame as the attacker team had the last elimination, they would get credit for the elimination win as well as the spike detonation. My guess is it's the same frame perfect issue, but we will definitely investigate!

I don't know what you are tracing to - it's not our IP.

Thank you. I’m sorry if I seem bitter about this as I don’t intend to be. I will update this post if it fixes my problem.

Any luck with the update? If not, let me know. I'll DM you and we can figure it out together.

Anyone getting vanguard not initialized? I'm assuming it's got something to do with this release?

Update: Riot has fixed this issue today 5/8 for a majority of people. Thanks to the team for sorting it out.

Vanguard is in a closed beta state as much as VALORANT is. Building an entire Anti-Cheat product from the ground up isn't easy. It'll take some time to get everything completely right.

For this specific issue, we've deployed a fix. Please try to patch VALORANT and Vanguard will update. You will need to reboot your machine in order for the fix to fully take. This requires a system restart, not a shutdown. If this fixes your problem, please close any player support tickets you have open. Thank you!

A fix was released just moments ago. Thank you for your patience.

valorant FPS drops when you look at the enemy. It legit worked for multiple rounds. It's accurate. His teammate used it too later. This is insane

Haha yeah, no worries. Always good to try to escalate issues. Now there's a few news articles about it that are missing this context :(

Such is life

nope. same vanguard not initialized issue. msi mobo, logitech g pro mouse, 1080ti,
i7- 5930k, ducky keyboard.

I DM'd you with some questions. I'm confident that the fixes I'm working on will fix issues that folks on ASRock motherboards have, but not sure about other configurations.

Vanguards needs to ask permission to disable a program instead of disabling it silently itself.

Are we doing to see a reduction in Vanguards aggression before launch? I got a drop and would love to play but i DO NOT feel comfortable with a company owned by tencent having 100% access 24/7 upon startup

Yes, Vanguard's aggression was significantly decreased yesterday.

This patch broke Vanguard for me. Was playing the last few weeks and now getting a Vanguard not initializing error. Edit: The later update corrected it for me. My game is working now.

Hey folks, we're looking into this one. We have a good lead. Is anyone here using ASRock motherboards?

EDIT: Reached out to a couple of folks. This issue is more widespread than just ASRock motherboards, but I've gotten confirmation that what I'm working should unblock most people. I'll update this when a fix is deployed. ETA is a few hours. Thank you for patience.

EDIT 2: A fix has been deployed. Please try to patch VALORANT and Vanguard will update. You will need to reboot your machine in order for the fix to fully take. This requires a system restart, not a shutdown. If this fixes your problem, please close any player support tickets you have open. Thank you!

Question About My Packet Loss

Comment

Howdy,

That graph definitely isn't normal. Each graph point is 1/10th of a second. You can see in some cases you're losing ~19% of your packets in those periods. This would likely lead to enemies sometimes being in the wrong position or in more severe cases you might rubberband back to a previous position. Your shots are likely to be delayed as well.

Really you want to see the packet loss graph have 0 spikes in it if your internet is working properly (or maybe some smaller spikes every now and then, but really you should expect to see 0%).

If you're on Wifi you might try a wired connection. If not, you might need to restart your modem or router. If the problem persists you might try reaching out to player support or even your own ISP to troubleshoot the issue further.

I had a problem like this earlier today and was able to fix it by fixing some loose cables on my router.
