A member of\u00a0Riot Games announces the team’s intentions to combat various forms of cheating in Valorant<\/strong><\/em>. The developer, RayKay, put forth a few responses via Reddit suggesting that Riot is looking into methods of preventing cheating in Valorant<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Cheating is an age-old problem which effects all gaming genres, with competitive video games facing some of the worst instances. When it comes to Valorant<\/em>, a player’s skill at aiming their weapon precisely usually determines their success while playing. Unsurprisingly, some gamers will utilize aim-bots to win games against better players<\/a>. Since these tools are typically free, there is little stopping players from using them to artificially inflate their skill rating.<\/p>\n

Various commenters lamented the state of Valorant<\/em>, suggesting that cheating like aim bots or smurfing<\/a> are prevalent. On Reddit, the Riot developer popped in to offer some thoughts on the issue. While acknowledging that stopping all cheating entirely is a unrealistic expectation, RayKay implies that the team is looking into improving their anti-cheat systems this year. Since the solutions are based on feedback Riot has received from players, the developer requests that fans of Valorant<\/em> should continue to keep reports and observations coming.<\/p>\n

One of the most important aspects of a competitive multiplayer game is a player’s skill rating. It not only determines match-making against others, but it offers a goal for players to chase and improve on. RayKay addresses how they are focusing on preventing cheaters from effecting anyone’s rank progress, bug or otherwise<\/a>. But when asked if players could get skill rating back for games with cheaters, the developer had little to offer. Agreeing that it is a great idea, the team behind Valorant<\/em> has priorities for dealing with cheating that do not involve refunding points.<\/p>\n

Due to the nature of the internet, individual examples of cheating can reach lots of viewers, amplifying the problem. Just because a handful of players online claim they experience cheating does not actually mean it is rampant. In addition, there are the rare instances where players bitter about a loss accuse others of cheating. Since aim botting mimics high skill gameplay, it is difficult to tell the difference on a moment to moment basis. Gamers who seem like they are using cheating software could actually just be that good. That said, Riot Games<\/a> has faced plenty of backlash for cheating in Valorant<\/em>, so it is good that the team is\u00a0recognizing the problem and attempting to resolve it.<\/p>\n
