It was supposed to be named "New Hall" by the devs but was mis-heard between a couple of streamers who mistakenly named it "U-hall" since it's shaped like a 'U'.

U-Haul is a company that lets you rent delivery trucks. I suggest changing to "U-Hall"

It was mistakenly heard as "U-Hall/U-Haul" LONG before streamers ever heard it ;)

Hey, I genuinely really appreciate this! I'll definitely check these out, and keep your words in the back of my mind as I continue growing within this career.

Have a nice day :)

You too :) Best of luck!

Hey, agency side market researcher here :D Do you have any tips on making it into the research industry within gaming?

Hey there! I can't speak to the whole industry, but I can speak to my experience at Riot :) I think the most important things you can do are to demonstrate (1) you have most of the skills that they need, and you're open to learning the rest; (2) you're open to both giving and receiving feedback, and (3) you've got a growth mindset, with a strong desire to learn and improve.

For the first, I'd recommend watching the different vods we have of talks at different conferences. Steve Mack has an outstanding talk at the Game UX Summit 2016 about our embed model. I'd also recommend you read Lean UX by Jeff Gothelf.

Hope this helps <3

The fact that you actually talk to people on Reddit already makes you 10 times more likable than most other developer studios I know of.

Interacting with the community is a big deal that many of them don't seem to be aware of.

we <3 you too, fam =D

It takes some time to get all that set up. I just chatted with one of our comms folks this morning to get me set up with it.

Is Riv on valorant team?

Esports casters fall under a different team than game teams. (So people like Dash, Phreak, and Riv aren't on the League team).

I'm guessing blate recognized my name. I'm a VALORANT dev, but I also happen to be Riv's fiance.

Any chance you are trying to install the game on a virtual machine (or using a cloud gaming service which uses virtual machines)? Most of the folks I have seen get this error are trying to install on a virtual machine. As far as I am aware that is not supported due to anticheat reasons.

I love that you guys lurk around here. Really hoping I can get whitelisted on the 7th. Your game looks awesome!

As I expected from Riot, we will have high quality community interaction and a great game!

we love having a community that appreciates it! :) its been a core philosophy from the very beginning of Valorant production that we would all engage with the community. and now that the time is here its so exciting to share and talk about the game with everyone!

Most likely not because they're two separate games and would have two different currency systems. I also have spare riot points on lol but I really don't think they'll transfer.

correct - riot points and valorant points are two different currencies

Any chance you are running the installer in a virtual machine?

How would you know this information when the Anti-cheat is not out as well?

The anticheat is installed as part of the installation process.

There was a League of Legends forum post about anticheat and virtual machines which provided some context as to why virtual machines were not supported but the League forums are gone now :(.
