The new Riot Games shooter does not escape attacks and receives very low scores from angry players.
New launch, new attack in the form of review bombing. This practice, which consists of scoring an artistic work with very low scores so that its artistic average decreases, has become commonplace in major releases. Valorant, the new production of Riot Games, has succumbed to it in Metacritic. At the time of writing this news, the game has an average of 5.7 (user rating), while the press rating is 8.7.
Time 4b puts a 0 on it and says the following: “Slow, boring, smooth but somehow awkward, and the weapons feel seedy.” Moondog255 also gives it the same note and defends that it is “absolute rubbish”. The rest of the comments go along a similar line. Some comment that the product is not finished and that it still needs a lot of polishing. You can also read messages against Vanguard, the anti-cheat system that Riot Games has introduced in its video game and which is accused of reducing the performance of PCs.
Just Launched
Valorant’s closed beta ended just a few weeks ago, but players didn’t have to wait long to get back in control. Riot Games announced that the title would be ready on June 2 and confirmed news regarding the previous beta. How could it be otherwise, the new agent was prepared from the first day. This is Reyna, a dualist who has special assassin abilities and is capable of becoming invisible and invulnerable. The new Ascent map, meanwhile, is set in Venice, while the new game mode was added to offer shorter games.
Valorant is currently available exclusively on PC, although the studio has developed a prototype console to determine if a future launch on new platforms is possible. Still, they have not yet confirmed that this will happen.
