Indeed VALORANT looks like a interesting fusion of CS:GO, Overwatch & Paladins. Character designs remind me a lot of Apex Legends as well.

I'll be curious to see if any FPS pros from CSGO, Overwatch, R6 Siege, Apex, or Fortnite switch to VALORANT.

To be honest, this game looks like crap. Kinda small scale Fortnite (which also looks like crap).

Also, gameplay looks just like CSGO with some extra weird character skills thrown up on top.

Looks like CS GO gameplay but with always having utility prepared as abilities. The revealing position abilties seems underestimated in their impact. Knowing the exact position of someone, basically means that player is already dead. But with that kind of gameplay I can see why riot has such focus on denying cheaters. For if wallhacks are part of the game, how can anybody tell whether someone is cheating or not? You will always have a suspicion you are playing against a hacker.

I want to bet that the revealing abilities will be the dominant meta and people would only pick the bow/wall thing to troll. Then Riot will nerf the revealing ability over and over, but it will still be a super dominant pick (see: Flash summoner spell in league)

The comic'ish look and all is for maximum frames even on older machines. It's all on purpose.
They said it's mainly CS:GO with some flavors of OW, but the abilties are nowhere near as important as gun skill. That said, a wallhack ability seems bonkers

Closed beta starts today, if you are interested in getting a chance to play it yourself, you must watch 1 of the many Twitch streams that have drops enabled.

[image loading]

https://beta.playvalorant.com/en-us/news/announcements/the-valorant-closed-beta-starts-april-7/

Also note that the beta is currently limited to 5 regions: Canada, US, EU, Russia, Turkey.

If you aren't lucky enough to get access, you can still check out how the game plays out with the streams and see if it is interesting for you.

I'm watching players like n0thing and Scream. Not a fan of the cartoony graphics, though I suppose it does wonders for player legibility. There's a bit of a wierd disconnect between fire rates and the sounds of weapon firing, like half as slow. Maps I've seen so far look short ranged with no real long range fights and looks barren without any cover to hide behind to reveal less body.

Looks fun, I might give it a try once it comes out. Watching the streams so far, there seems to be a lot more abilities usage than I was originally expecting.

It's a casual FPS like cod, let the kids play.
I'll stick to CS.

I like the game. Once I learn all the abilities I will enjoy it more I think. I've died more than a few times just because something surprised me and I didn't know what it did.

As a CS player i really like the game so far.
It mixes a lot of good stuff from CS:GO with a lot of good stuff from 1.6.
But if you've never played CS prepare to get rolled a lot.^^

looks better than I thought tbh. A lot of people were talking about how crappy it was, but tbh it looks decently well crafted. Some polishing of animations and should be good to go.

really don't think 3 bombsites makes sense though

How so? I played 1.6 a really long time ago, so I don't really remember the nuances that would differentiate it from GO. To me they were the same thing just with a different polish and slight changes in balance.

Am i the only one to not see any ressemblance with CS ? Looks like a generic FPS/MOBA/Hero shooter.

Ok there's smoke and grenades and defuse... But it's like saying : "Wolfenstein looks like Starcraft. I means. There's mech !"

And am i the only one that throw up on hero fps ? Thinking even DOOM & Quake went that route made me loose faith in multiplayer FPS

That's what I first thought when I saw it too, reminded me of SA.

not a fan of hero fps either i think, the powers are usually rather overpowered and tend to simplify the game, i dont really know about valorant but it looks like that, wallhack power for example idk
