Many users even reported not being able to access their Valorant Battle Passes. According to some reports, Riot Games had to shut down the game first in Europe and later in Asia-Pacific region for maintenance. Soon after the game went live, gamers in several regions took to social media to report repeated game crashes. The developer is working on adding aim locks (it locks aim at enemy by itself) and trigger bots (automatically shoots at an enemy) to Vanguard soon. It can prevent players from using speed hacks (which allows players to move faster than others) and wall hacks (when players can see opponents through walls). To uphold the competitive integrity of the game and prevent cheating, Riot Games’ anti cheat system called Vanguard comes into action during gameplay.

Teams can swap between attacks and defence after 3 rounds. The defensive team plants a bomb and then tries to stop the offensive team from defusing it. Similar to CS: GO, here one team attacks while the other defends. In comparison to other popular online multiplayer games, Valorant has a lot more in common with the likes of CS:GO, rather than PUBG and Fortnite. For the best possible experience at 144 and higher FPS, players should at least have Intel Core i5-4460 clocking at 3.2GHz and Nvidia GTX 1050Ti. However, for a enjoyable gaming experience at 60FPS Riot Games recommends, no less than Intel Core i3-4150 CPU and Nvidia GeForce GT 730 GPU. In terms of hardware requirements, minimum specs required for gaming at 30 FPS (frames per second) is Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 CPU and Intel HD4000 GPU.

The size of the download file for Valorant is just 7.3GB, which is quite small in comparison to the file size of many of the modern day PC games. Players can buy abilities and weapons at the start of the game. Players can choose their in-game characters called agents at the start of the game. Every game has 25 rounds and the team that wins 13 of them first wins the game. Every player can sign in and play remotely from anywhere in the world.
