• Steps to reproduce: Try to buy points with Paypal. Enter email. Enter password. Spins for a while, goes back to the email and password screen (without saying anything about whether you entered info correctly). Enter info again. Asks you to do a captcha. Cannot click the verify button or the refresh captcha button, and you're stuck unless you hit escape to close the payment popup. Worth noting: this happens no matter what password I put in. I know my paypal password because I just signed in to paypal's website to make sure I wasn't just wrong. In the overlay, this bug happens when I put in the correct password. It also happens, in the EXACT SAME WAY, when I put in the wrong password. There is no difference. Clearly the game i...

In a largely different vein from the other questions I've seen -- for those of us who are glad that Riot is taking anticheat seriously, when can we hope to see this implemented with League as well?

Thank you.

This is something I've been saying for a while here and there and I know a handful of people also echoed this and agreed so it would be nice to have the answer a little more public, but I won't complain either way

Stay safe and have a nice weekend.

The thing is, I get your point that you have to play around her abilities etc (which i dont agree with, because it feels too strong when the whole team has to play around character). But secondly, there are many players complaining about her. It is basically one of the bigger critiques of this game at the moment. She is just too strong and frustrating to play against and there is no fun in it. Im having nightmares about the ‚beep beep beeps‘ and then im dead.. Are there any ideas to already to adress this? Balance changes?

And yeah, for me personally, im worried that you gonna introduce more characters like this, and the game will be a nightmare to play against, being scared everywhere one the map to get one hitted and needed to ‚play around‘ her kit..

the point is that if you react properly to it then it's chip damage. i don't understand how that can be such a hard concept to grasp for so many people LOL

the character is made for area denial and chip damage, because people are supposed to MOVE when they hear the nades, not just stand still and take it. a raze nade should never kill you unless you're in a terrible position in the first place or don't react properly to it.

the entire video is essentially just a "get good", because that's what it's gonna take. i'm guessing raze will always be a little too good in lower mmr, but towards the upper half of the rankings she'll just be a normal agent like anyone else.

I'm picking up what you're putting down - there is a cost-reward to sitting on an ultimate like that for the threat and I recognize that. I also know that in the video he specifically mentions wanting to reach a point where she is not a "must pick" character for all comps.

My two big points are: First, just that she is currently the only character with this function and as such in order for her to reach the point where she is not a must-pick she will have to be weakened significantly. Second if/when she is not the only character like this then what is the game going to be like? Two characters staggering their ultimates which either gain free map area or get a huge advantage by picking up kills for free only seconds into the round will be very problematic.

I am fully aware that this falls under a "slippery slope" fallacy and that there is still a cost to only having one Raze on your team (I often feel it when I am entirely unable to smoke, flash, he...

Hey Arkem, would I be banned for injecting cheats into another game while not playing valorant or having it running? I play on HvH servers in csgo.

I haven't installed the game due to concerns over the anti-cheat. (And it doesn't help that it won't run on a vm)

I have two questions:

1) Are you planning to create an option to uninstall it when one installs Valorant? (Talking about Vanguard, I think since it only supports one game it should go away when you remove said game)

2) I've had a shitty experience with Halo Master Chief coming with EAC without letting me know in advance during download or during installation. Does your download / install process make it clear to the players that Valorant is bundled with extra software that also has a kernel driver? As a fellow gamer I imagine you also don't miss the good 'ol StarForce days.

Thanks for the time you took reading and possibly replying to someone that isn't a customer.

So what you are saying is against a Raze you forfeit control of up to 70% of the map just because she has ultimate. I say 70% because essentially all of the maps proceed into chokes either at the round start walls or right in between them. On either side, it frankly doesn't matter, if your "solution" is what is opted into for organized play then everyone on the team with Raze ult gets a free pass to just push up. On Split this will give a HUGE advantage as it gives them control of mid essentially for free. On Haven and Bind it is more complicated to describe what real estate is gained for free because it depends on whether you or on T or CT side with her ult but either way it gets you free control of a significant portion of the map.

Just to reiterate, it is not using her ult that gives her this advantage - which I would find quite reasonable (to an extent that is basically what Phoenix's ult does). Instead it is just the threat of it existing tha...

Hi thanks for the communication with the community, I think that's so important for a successful ongoing game and something you guys have been rocking. However, going back to Raze my question is this; why give her that ult? I understand the rest of her kit, even if I think her damage is too strong at the moment, but her ult just seems to go against the vision of the game as laid out in the beginning of the video. The dev in the video discusses how to make it easier to play against but that's ignoring the core of the issue imo. Raze should not exist in her current state and I think it's going to hurt the game going forwards if she and other characters after her continue with the same design philosophy.

What we want to ode (?) to all of you and make sure is true is that you're getting the proper window of time to move away from it, and you are getting the proper audio and visual queues to move away from it."

In this case the UWidget is most likely part of a UWidgetComponent which treats it’s UserWidgetObject as part of the collision on the component. I don’t know if the widget it’s self is hit testable. But the widget itself would intercept a line trace since it’s on a widget component.

You are right though.... hit testable is specifically taking about widgets. I really meant to say the components collision profile

Originally posted by xeru98

For riot. This bug is likely caused because you are using a UWidgetComponent which by default is hit testable. Just change the collision profile of the widget component to IgnoreAll

I use AHK a lot for work. Will it instantly ban or tell you to close AHK?

there was a bug not allowing you to buy with - p aypal so they removed it till they fix it

Originally posted by _Yank

Really useful info! Does the game recognize which CPU cores are true cores and which ones are hyperthreaded ones? There's some "easy" mild performance uplift on using real cores instead of the other ones, if the game doesn't use this to it's favor I think that you guys should consider implementing this!

I also want to thank you for all the active and helpful support!
