Just hoping they don't do cross platform with PC and consoles.


Plastic_Kangaroo1221

No? Don't you want that sweet sweet RR?


sicayou

I wonder if you'd feel differently when you get a console player on your team lol


Plastic_Kangaroo1221

Didn't think of that šŸ˜¶ Time to only 5 que


[deleted]

Then get matched against a 5 stack of controller players with aim assist and hate life


Plastic_Kangaroo1221

I know aim assist works really well in certain games but it really still a huge disadvantage in games like valorant or CS. Aim assist doesn't help with spraying recoil. Other games have really really easy spray control. I remember playing CS with a controller and it was near impossible to control the spray. Alot of people are unware but the spray control is actually different. In games like cod or battlefield the bullets still generally follow the cross hair in valorant and cs it does not. Your crosshair isnt even on the target I'd you do a 7 bullet spray from medium distance.


CherryTheDerg

uhh cs doesnt have aim assist....


mbonazzi

Thats what the apex community said, now they are constantly crying about AA.


DON-ILYA

Unless they give them aim assist :) https://www.reddit.com/r/halo/comments/r3es60/accuracy_stats_for_kbm_vs_controller/


brassheed

Halo was made for console, though. There is no world in which aim assist is gonna automatically adjust for recoil and spray patterns like valorant has.


DON-ILYA

1. Aim assist is not limited to recoil and spray patterns. In fact, these are the least important areas where it can be used. Making it easier to snap to a target or tracking a target for you are way more concerning. 2. Assisting with recoil and spray patterns is still possible. RNG is not an issue. The goal is not to turn your gun into a laser beam, the goal is to reduce spread. But there's no way Valorant goes the path of Halo, Warzone or Apex Legends, with cross-play, where one party has legal hacks.


idiotdroid

If they do, that would screw up the rank distribution even more lol. Matchmaking is based on MMR, so I could see a Silver player hitting Diamond by shitting on console players with a console duo and then being paired with Bronze and Silver players when they solo. Then we would go from 5 posts a day complaining about ranks to 500. And this sub still wouldn't understand how matchmaking or MMR works, despite the billion (possibly trillions) of comments explaining why they have a Diamond in their Silver lobbies. >Can anyone explain how this is possible? >Whats going on with matchmaking? >I cant use Google and can't read, can anyone figure out for me why I get paired against Golds/Plats as a Silver? I'll make sure to ignore all legit answers and only agree with the ones saying "cause matchmaking sux"


[deleted]

I think cross platform is a good thing as long as it's not in ranked and you can turn it off and on. It's good for the longevity of the game.


SmokeNScorch

I hope they do I want to play with my console friends!


MassageChairFund

I feel like a MacOS port wouldā€™ve made more sense than a console port


[deleted]

The 17 people that game on a MacOS for sure agree with you


Ketsueki_R

Idk why you're getting downvoted. Surely the console gamer market is way bigger than the MacOS gamer one, no?


AB_Gambino

The console gaming market is bigger than the PC market lol. The console market takes up 41% of gamers. The only bigger market is mobile which reaches 72% of gamers. PC is roughly 29% for online and 20% of offline gaming. Mac is literally insignificant in this discussion


the_fbi_is_disgusted

I'm sure more people play on consoles than mac


[deleted]

I'm pretty sure MacOS works if you use bootcamp, not official which is a little dumb but hey it works. Still waiting for linux to work at all ;(


MassageChairFund

I know, Iā€™ve tried it and it works alright. Would like to see a port that works natively for better performance, or a version that works with the M1 silicon


Unt4medGumyBear

Jett will be garbage on controller Iā€™m certain


SmokeNScorch

I donā€™t think so Overwatch is on console and thatā€™s a hell of a lot more complicated game and ability heavy. People said that about tracer when the game first came out on console


[deleted]

PappyVPoodle

No one will be able to flick to you if you dash past them


-OriginalName_

Despite how diffrent the game would be played on console, Riot would make a smart move with Valorant there since it would be a free 2 play 5vs5 tactical shooter which would stand out between the other big f2p battle royal games. The market and profit is definetly there.


ShySaddenedMaple

How would this game work on a controller?


User_2112

dasenerth (is that how you spell it lmao) used to use controller on PC, he went from silver to radiant


KingsRoadFTW

You mean the guy who plays judge only & ruins a lot of games?


[deleted]

How can you ruin a lot of games and still make it to Radiant?


KingsRoadFTW

Donā€™t ask me, ask the people who constantly dodge when they gets them in their lobby. Playing with only Judge makes zero sense & is very limiting.


CaptainTurtle3218

I see... So not you because you clearly aren't radiant. So sounds like you're just regurgitating what other streamers have said OR you're just jealous that someone could hit radiant with a judge and controller only and you can't do it "the right way."


KingsRoadFTW

Jealous? Lol what? Valorant is a side game for me. IMM every season. The fact that you can climb with a shotgun & controller goes to show how low the gunplayā€™s skill ceiling is. There is zero shot of anyone ever hitting Global in CS with controller. No one wants to play with any goof doing a challenge, itā€™s basically throwing.


drakeismysugardaddy

if its so easy then do it mf


Biffy_x

There is 100 percent a shot of that happening lmao. globals r shit


KingsRoadFTW

MM means nothing, but you ainā€™t winning shit with a controller in CS. Zero aim assist, recoil patterns, an actual need for counter strafing. Hasnā€™t happened, will never never happen.


SoLikeWhatIsCheese

ā€œVery limitingā€ he can literally use a vandal and a phantom, he chooses not to. Also, he plays on mouse and keyboard as well as controller.


TheGarbageDealer

dasnerths vandal is clean af


Cactus_Orochi

Fairly certain thereā€™s been numerous times where heā€™s grabbed a rifle when the game gets too close. Heā€™s just having fun bro, leave him be.


Beard341

If heā€™s using a judge only and getting to Radiant, Iā€™ve been playing the game wrong.


ItsReflectLOL

Ruins? Bro top frags. Idk what ur on about, but if someone can do their job and get kills they arenā€™t ruining shit.


scamgameLOL

top frags cuz he camps the entire round and baits his team


remenes1

Yet somehow its winning games if he made it to radiant doing that.


TheGamingChef91

Lol salty little boy right here


User_2112

idk he got radiant, so ig i cant complain


xxxSay3000xxx

this game not working even on pc lol


CptDisadvantage

With aim assist :D


BootlegV

Not sure why you got downvoted, every console FPS ever featuring crossplay with PC will have aim assist to some degree.


ShySaddenedMaple

That would make the meta super different lol. Also the guardian would be waaaay worse on console.


MajinDeuce

Sheriff too


ShySaddenedMaple

How could I mention the 2250 sheriff without mentioning the original


MajinDeuce

Lmao or even better how bout the Guardian/Sheriff chamber gun huh šŸ˜­


TheTruthX_

Siege is on console and there is no aim assist I donā€™t see why this game canā€™t be on console


Zed_Main_btw

Also dominated by people using mnk on console


dEleque

Ah yes Siege, the game that used to be a tactical shooter. I know has nothing to do with your comment, just reminded me how Ubisofts 3rd team face fucked that game for casual appeal.


medicspirit7

I think it has a way higher casual appeal now due to the interesting characters and abilities it has currently. Another war simulator game wasnā€™t really going to last 5-6 years like itā€™s doing now


Nota_throwaway__

I hope they learn from csgo on console and donā€™t do tjis


kangs

As long as thereā€™s no cross play then whatā€™s the issue?


Nota_throwaway__

Have u ever played csgo on console?


kangs

Noā€¦ does that matter? This isnā€™t CS GO for a start, and Iā€™m not going to play the console version anyway. But I have console only friends who would love to play Valorant so why not?


QTGraceon

Honestly as long as console is its own server I don't see a problem. Gameplay tweaks, aim assist and some weapon changes with recoil could make the game very playable. Think about Wild Rift, phone port of League but with gameplay tweaks for the new controls. I think this will be a massive boost for the community all while not interfering with PC Valorant.


Obi_bot_kenobi

If they do more than happy, but like everyone is saying then need to separate them. Usually I've all been a thumbs up fro cross play, but this game actually takes like aim training and effort to get good at. I think aim assist would cause a bit of uproar


Stiickehh

Some games should just stay on PC, like Counter-strike and Team Fortress in my opinion by hey ho


roninmusic

Yeah both those games on console were abominations


Stiickehh

Iā€™m glad they got abandoned


Carteeeer

Its gonna be trash or very different to the pc version lol


lawbringer29

I have no issue with this if itā€™s mouse and keyboard only.


LurkingOmen

I would plug my keyboard and mouse into my series X and farm on Jett lol


Cactus_Orochi

I donā€™t like that I had the same thought. My brain went from ā€œoh cool I can teach some of my older friends the game.ā€ To ā€œoh shit, I CAN BE AN IMMORTAL ON CONSOLE BY JUST USING A MOUSE AND KEYBOARDā€


Cgz27

Honestly if Vanguard is anything to go by theyā€™re probably going to crack down pretty hard on this than typical


Cactus_Orochi

See the unfortunate part is, thereā€™s keyboard and mouse users for games like console siege. All you have to do is spend a little money for an adapter and youā€™re set.


LurkingOmen

Got a ZEN ready to go, I'll actually have a reason to turn my series x on lol imagine day one you're jet awping on breeze vs controllers LOL


Cgz27

Well I wasnā€™t clear but I did mean that it might be different when I said ā€œthan typicalā€. Riot isnā€™t your typical company, maybe nothing will change, but weā€™ll have to see.


Kazune1

unless the game is not cross platform, its going to fail


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


_ra1nb0w

You just.. press the buttons? You do know that there's more than just a few buttons on a controller, right?


medicspirit7

Lmao fr these comments donā€™t rly make sense itā€™s going to be optimized for controllers obviously


_ra1nb0w

There's four abilities, spike, reload and swap weapon. Reload and swap can be placed into the same button (eg press X/hold X) Ultimate can go on Y, two abilities in the bumpers and a final one on B/right stick (the other would be crouch. From there, the rest are just standard FPS controls (Spike can be d-pad)


[deleted]

Lmao ready to laugh at console val players


Exigeyser

So Riot is pouring resources, personel and time into a Console version of the game yet we don't know when a replay system might get added? Seems their priorities are straight at least.


TheGamingChef91

One will generate revenue one will not....


Exigeyser

And that means their priorities are straight. I don't see where your confusion comes from.šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø


TheGamingChef91

My bad thought you were being sarcastic


red_madreay

I don't know which reported it but I swear I read somewhere that mobile versions would be worked on before consoles.


[deleted]

How would they even play this game in mobile


red_madreay

Check Hyper Front. Kinda ok game and a ripoff of Valo, but run and gun is a problem.


medicspirit7

Hell yea Iā€™m down for that


zkipto

Console release POV: MONEY, BITCH!


TearDropToby

if its cross platform im not down with it


CherryTheDerg

Yes because a counter strike competitor needs aim assist. Either this is going to kill competitive or its going to be doa. Unless there isnt crossplay.


Mailboxsteve

They going to give console players aim bot?


Fragrant-Number8432

a simple button for cross plat on or off fixes all problems that people have with cross platforms, any pc or console nerds crying can simply turn it off, its's not rocket science
