Valorant has been in a different league for the past four years, in terms of popularity. This Riot Games shooter is quite hard to master, though. This game needs precise crosshair placement and swift reflexes to ace.
However, the game has just surfaced on consoles and will reportedly be released on July 26. Amidst these circumstances, newcomers, especially the console players, will eventually find it pretty tough to sustain in the game.
New Players Are Going Through Rough Patches in Valorant
Recently, a Valorant newbie has shared his experience of playing the game for a week. Despite the game’s entry four years ago, the player is very late to start playing it. Thanks to those YouTube videos, which made him interested to try out the game.
However, his initial experience is not worth remembering. He thinks “being a new player sucks so bad.” As per him, people lose matches in this game because of the new players. He also shared his feelings when he gets trolled because he is not skilled enough to cope with the game.
These flames from toxic players are nothing new in this game, and pretty demotivating to this player as well. Despite all these struggles and hardships, the player has decided not to give up on this game because he wants to know what it feels like to actually be good at this game.
At the end of the Reddit post, this fan asked for assistance from the community as well on improving his game, as he doesn’t have any friends to teach him. If you want to help him, know that he plays on the European server.
This story of this Valorant beginner is quite fascinating and motivational. However, there’s no denying that the initial days in the game are going to surly feel like a nightmare.
Vaorant Console is About to Release, But Are the Players Ready?
According to some credible leaks, Riot is gearing up to end the limited beta phase of Valorant on console and will go for the global release soon. But are console players prepared to take this heavy toll on their shoulders?
As previously mentioned, this game needs immense precision, clinical reflex, and sharp game sense. Now, this precision depends a lot on hardware. For example, PC players are so good in this game because of their mouse, which supports high DPI and is super smooth and sensitive.
Now this level of smoothness and sensitivity can never be achieved by the console controllers. That’s why, to balance things out, Riot has even put a Focus Mode for a more precise hipfire. Also, the game is missing out on some important features like remake/surrender, Deathmatch, and many more.
So, before the players get prepared, it seems Riot has to prepare themselves first. Did you also find it hard to play Valorant initially? Share your experience with us in the comment section.
