    This could be a 9 if the ban system was better. for example when they kicked me and everyone because just a teammate was cheating, Not everyone just him,My second complainant Are the graphics, as of 2020 this looks pretty meh, but the fps count are pretty good so this one is passable, the rest of the game is good

    Half of these people who are complaining havent even played this game, lag is beacuse you have worse internet or computer & gunplay in my opinion is good in this game, just learn to aim or something if you have problems. You can just change your crosshair & dpi.

    Hate comes from some csgo players & a lot from fortnite players too. I mean fortnite players hate everything.

    So, since its a riot game and a competitive shooter, the community is already pretty toxic. In Beta the game worked fine for me, since release there have been laggs AND Fps Drops, especially since that last patch.
    The infamous "Network problem" symbol is my loyal companion. And neither the fps drops nor the network problems can be caused by myself. Decent PC and connection are provided.

    Other than that: Unrated only sucks big time, the new game mode is annoying.

    I'd say the game is more an 8-9 but I'll put 10 because so many people put 0 when they didn't even play the game.

    People are so dumb that they dont understand that the character has to be slower than cs:go simply because the maps are smaller. + the game has no cheaters, different from cs:go, 128 ticks servers, nice shot reg.

    Some say it's a mix of overwatch with cs go, but honestly there's no way to compare, the game is fun to a certain extent but doesn't deliver anything new to the fps market, but the most important thing is that it's not good to shoot with the weapons just like in other popular games, just don't convince.

    Es un muy buen juego, mi nota sería de un 8,5 pero por el ataque que ha recibido le doy el 10 para nivelar. Si quieres jugar un buen FPS táctico a día de hoy este sería el primero que recomendaría.

    When the announcement of this game was announced, the creators of the character will not have much impact in the game. Unfortunately, play this game from the beginning of her Beta, not once died only from the skills of the character, e.g. Breach
    The game is very cool but skills need to be changed

    A good game, yet it has the **** matchmaking I have ever seen. I have never EVER been in a game where I didn't win by a HUGE margin or lose by a HUGE margin. This is easily the worst matchmaking I have ever seen and it has sucked out ALL the fun in this game.

    Much of these notes are clearly hateful to Overwatch and CSGO players who are feeling threatened by the potential of this game.
    It is a new game and will still go through many adjustments, but it is already an excellent game.
    Let them take care!

    Está bueno, con personajes bien diferenciados y habilidades divertidas. Aun así es un shooter, donde una bala bien apuntada será determinante. A medida que mas gente juegue se podrán equilibrar los campeones y mapas.

    Valorant is a very good game, ignore the people who give it a bad rating and say "it's boring" because they clearly did no research about what is game is, it's not a run and gun game like CoD, BF or OW, it's a tactical hyper-competitive shooter like R6S.

    So, upon release of this game, I jumped in blindly. I had played CS:GO casually before, and I did recognize that the game is incredibly similar to it. However, Valorant managed to captivate me a lot more than CS:GO. Its roster of agents and roles introduced variety, and a lot more strategic placement to matches. Valorant felt fun.

I had played CS:GO casually before, and I did recognize that the game is incredibly similar to it. However, Valorant managed to captivate me a lot more than CS:GO. Its roster of agents and roles introduced variety, and a lot more strategic placement to matches. Valorant felt fun. The cash store, only contains skins which isn't a huge loss for me, personally. However, the experience right now, is littered with connection issues and instability. I gave it the excuse of being a new release, but to some people, I understand that it is a deal breaker. The game doesn't feel too unbalanced, but there are definitely some agents who fit better into a team than others. Guns aren't too varied in feel, but are still enjoyable to pick between. I have heard some people complain about the game being slow, but so far, that hasn't been the case for me. I've had intense matches that got me going for quite a while. Overall, I'd say the game feels like CS:GO, for sure, but it has unique aspects. The general experience could use some work. There are barely any real rewards to playing however, including the battle pass. In the free version of the Battle Pass, there are these things called Radiant/Radianite points that are used to upgrade skins to unlock VFX and things of the sort. But they are useless for a general free to play player. Most skins can't even be upgraded, the only ones that can be upgraded, are the Prime Skins. This game currently has a distinct lack of maps and gamemodes, currently depending on the Bomb Plant system, which is pretty much like CS:GO. It definitely isn't the game for players who're exclusively into fast paced gameplay all the time, but it definitely has some solid ground. As it develops, the devs are working on balance and gamemodes, which is great. But this game will take some time to match up to other titles in its genre. TLDR: It's a fun game, with good variety. Is usually slow, and strategic but can get intense. Has a lot of launch issues, like connection breaks and balance. Needs work, semi-solid start. Valorant has a bright future, if the devs manage to get there.… Expand

    Valorant is a good game. Far from a great one. It does its job correctly, but it does not bring anything innovative to the table. FPS games were here long before and so were games with different heroes. I can see this game taking whats left from CS:GO but I don't think it is yet ready to beat the big foes such as Rainbow Six: Siege and such.

    Valorant has a high-quality and clean release without any problems. The game will definitely please fans of the competitive FPS genre. The eSports potential of the shooter has only become established over time, and the first tournaments are already planned. However, a high entry threshold requires serious skill training. But this only makes the game more interesting.

    Overall, Valorant is a great game to play if you're a fan of first-person shooter strategy games. But it is also something that someone without experience with games like CS:GO can enjoy and pick up quickly. The Agents are, for the most part, balanced, and the planned addition of more should keep the game fresh. The overall style doesn't really land and the sound design needs to be fixed.
