Tried to give this game a shot but I find it unbearable due to some maps being one sided. Been playing fps for years so I know aimbotting when it's done by other players. So sad when a game implements "anti cheat" but it's already bypassed within a week or two. Back to single player games it is.

Greetings! Yesterday I played the first five unranked games in Valorant and I have to say that the game is in many ways tragic. But the worst problem (which has already been reported in the media) is cheaters. I immediately decided to check if the in-game reporting system works and how quickly it responds to reports. For this, I cursed in the chat and the next day I have a mute for four days. So it works! I won the first three matches with the results 13-4, 13-1 and 13-5, achieving high results in them. Already in the third game I found a cheater on the opposing team. Fortunately, he was a noob, or he couldn't properly use or configure cheats, because despite using wallhack and aimbot, he often died, although there were occasions when he could kill players on my team within 360 degrees with all headshots. Also, he didn't cheat from the start, but turned on cheats after losing a few rounds. But then it got disconnected so we managed to win. I lost the next two matches with the result 5-13 and 8-13. In the fourth match, a player using wallhack + aimbot was on the opposing team, he also confessed to it in the chat and he did it brazenly, so it was not hard to notice. You know, if someone plays these games, it's not too hard to recognize a cheater. Especially if he knows everything, prefire, he shoots through walls and almost only hits the head. This one player practically won the entire match alone, scoring the victory for his team with a final score of 40 kills, 9 deaths and 7 assists. The fifth game turned out to be more even as there were two cheaters on my team too, so it wasn't too bad. However, I was able to do absolutely nothing. Every now and then I was killed immediately by cheaters from all sides. As a result, I was practically excluded from the game, because attempts to take any action always ended in failure. It was a typical hvh game where the ordinary player has no chance and even and well I could stay in the base. Today I played two matches. We won the first one 13-4. There were two cheaters on my team, and the opposite one as well, but mine also had an aimbot, so they didn't stand a chance. The next game was funnier. We gave up because we came across three ragehackers. Three players on the opposing team came from around each corner prefire and insta headshots. They completly rekt us, we could do absolutely nothing. There was no doubt that they had cheats, because they always knew absolutely everything and never missed, and their reaction time was better than that of professional players. #feelsbadman Before you start dealing with unbalance and map issues, do something about the cheater problem first, because if this game looks like this, it will end up like CS: GO, it will become a cheater training ground. A game that honest players simply don't play, because they have no chance of facing cheats, and playing with cheats is not fun for them. I gave up CS: GO after more than 3,000 hours of gameplay just because only cheaters play this game outside of the world and no security can stop them. It never was, because many of the cheater profiles I follow on Steam have been cheating for several years without a single ban, which can be seen from their game and comments on their profiles from other users (you know "-rep cheater"). I thought that since Valorant has such a demanding anti-cheat, it's worth giving this game a try. However, it seems not. Personally (after my experience with CS: GO) I think the PvP games are over. Currently, without cheats, there is no point in starting, because every major title is struggling with the scourge of this scum and it seems that nothing will change in this matter, as long as bans do not start to be issued on equipment, because nowadays a ban on IP also fails the exam. Vanguard is a very intrusve anti-cheat. It requires re-moving the computer and prevents the use of many devices and programs, but despite this, cheaters have no problem with this game. So what's the point in using such annoying security when its only role is to irritate normal players? Valorant is currently having a similar cheater problem to CS: GO. There are plenty of them and you can find them in almost every match, even in unranked games. One such player is enough to ruin an entire match. I can imagine what happens in the ranked games, since there are so many cheaters in the unranked games... Already Valorant is as unplayable as CS:GO is packed with cheaters that give you no chance for anything. Uninstall.

Cleric515 Same story here. This game is stuffed by cheating trash using wallhack+aimbot and even not try to hide it. And all of these on unranked games... I can imagine what happening in ranked. Totaly mess and waste of time if you not cheating.

i think if theres a headshot when your strafing then that's sign your cheating because strafing messes with aim. setup a check, gun fired = true strafing = true head shot = true repeated on different player = true cheater = true, probably

I've played a lot since the closed beta started and I only met 1 cheater so far (probably). It seems like there are not that many cheaters on the EU servers around gold / silver

[unknown] It's seems you are just one of them cuz this is typical bla bla of cheating noobs. ^^ Actualy there is a few cheaers in every single match in UNRANKED games and I have proof of that cuz i recorfin my matches. They are completly blatant ragehackers, but always will be someone like you who just talking rubish. It's realy one of typical cheaters taunts. Stop taking trash and stop hacking dude. :* So if unranked is stuffed by hackers I can imagine what ranked matches looks like. Good luck cheater.

[unknown] I think in this case you are the one talking rubbish. Couldn't see anyone getting banned mid-game yet or cheating very offensive yet. The only one where I think he was hacking was someone who always knew where I moved along. And why do you pretend that everyone who says that there aren't that many cheaters is a cheater? That's basically like saying "Everyone who doesn't share my opinion is dumb".

TobeySK Same for me, I literally haven't found any. Sometimes I have thought that people use wallhack, but I forget that the sounds of the steps in this game are heard from the other end of the map... The same thing happens to me in CS:GO, everyone complains about hackers, but I've never found one.

How do you guys know they are cheating? Isn't that anti-cheat software really invasive?

Gameondaily Most of the time cheaters are not instant-banned. The system sets them on a list and then they get banned shortly afterwards (at least that's how it works in many other games). It's done this way so cheat developers can't test if their cheat is detected or not just by playing one game. And quite often very good players are called cheaters when they get matched against players with way less skill. They have completely different movement / positioning and aim.

I play on Platinum, and I fully confirm that there are a lot of cheaters, they are constantly and in almost every game. When I find games without cheaters, it's a pleasure to play, the teams play on equal terms and there is a struggle to win. As soon as the enemy comes a cheater, the game loses all meaning and goes only in one gate. Today after two games in which there were obvious cheaters with WH (it's easy to see), I deleted the game, and will return only after Riot announces that they have improved the anti-cheat.

So many cheaters...: Page 2

Sergio But, do you think that they're gonna waste their time with them? no way. They're making money out of them by skins and all that so it's kinda win=win in a way. 😁

Sergio

Epic Games did it with some cheat providers, so why not.

its called tampering.

Cheaters could be discarded more easily if similar to Overwatch players could specify what cheats the cheaters are using. The most commons are wall-hacks (seeing through walls), track-bots and aim-bots. And no, those aren't "skilled players" like some are saying cos they are knowing exactly your location even when always walking, without any Cypher or Sova in their team. Also there's a another kind of cheat that are jamming the left mouse button like I encountered to a player last match: I was waiting behind cover and he passed in front me and despite pressing the LMB my weapon (Bucky) didn't fire, obviously cheat-blocked, after two-three seconds his weapon (also a Bucky) did. That's kind of special cheat it's kinda new to Valorant but not to others multiplayer shooters like Dirty Bomb and Overwatch. In the latest it was a time where cheaters could be flooding the internet connection of the opposite team players.

Toxic players/Cheaters . Do devs actually work on banning suspending people?

12345678910

since last patch i don't see that many cheaters. maybe 1 or 2 a day but not many. maybe none a day. theyre too bust raking up the kills in csgo.

today has been bad. idk if these are cheaters but have a look and see what i saw;

xD this has nothing to do with cheating. This jett had basic aim thats all.
And that rayna play, i dont really know how to tell you but your aim sucks.
I have never seen anything like it

dolero

12345678910 If you really think that these two are suspicious I‘m not surprised about your „Game is full of cheaters“ opinion.

I played the game since first day of beta (was lucky with the key drop) and there was 1 cheater in all these games, who was literally live banned within the match.

12345678910

@Zabbix, yes i died to reyna, but doing so i also showed his odd behavior and strange name, which if i either killed him or didn't die to him i wouldn't have.

and that jett had a good shot i didn't say she was cheating but gosh it was almost too good idk tho just observing.

https://youtu.be/wpRm001_WcU

Zabbix

12345678910 odd behavior? He knew you are a total noob and trolled you hardcore. And Jetts shot is like i said nothing special once you reach gold elo. Those are both players way out of your league. You have no sense for the game nor you have aim or good reaktion time. The only way i could see you play better is if you take a shitload of coke and train on the range for several weeks cheers and good bye

12345678910

zabbix your tone is very disrespectful. i call upon the holy jesus to come into your life and turn you from sin.

dolero

Maybe he should have used other words but the message behind is true.
You wouldnt get a single kill in plat/dia elo.

I think you need to train your aim and learn the Game mechanics instead of complaining about „cheaters“.

12345678910

if i was trying to hit him i would have hit the reyna. the jet otoh was and is suspicious regardless of what kool aid yur drinking.

dolero

Whatever... so go on flaming instead of having fun

TheSolid

In this game a lot cheaters, very often I see players with an explicit WH, who do not just check the corners, but know exactly where you are. But what is above in the video, there is nothing strange. Jett fired a normal reaction, and Reyna should have died in the first second, if there was a good aim.

grundox1089

I've played over 500 games and only seen 1 hacker, and it was yesterday lol

L0RDPENCIL

Hey guys yes there are alot of cheaters in this game and more so recently how ever the cheats do tell the cheater when they have been reported in game but you need to send a fair few reports in for example there was a cheater running around with the operator and killing was going 11-0 in the first 3 rounds so i decided to report this player but i sent about 30 reports though, this player then must have turned off the cheats because his play style changed he was no longer running and hitting ever thing he was hiding behind his team , i wasnt happy with this so i kept spamming reports though he left the game so if you come across a cheater just spam 20 or 30 cheat reports though they will turn them off if their smart

Steve26NL

So we have a legit question here where is the answer from Valorant?
