replay system | VLR.gg

I think the reason for not having a replay system, is due to the "fog of war" in the anti-cheat.

because it doesn't render all the players at all times to prevent wallhacks, it may be impossible for the client to generate the replay file.

this means RIOT servers have to generate the replay and send it to the clients, for every single game played. this is obviously not easy, since RIOT uses their own servers instead of AWS / GCP.

EDIT: Since my intentions have been misinterpreted, I want to clarify that this is not to say that there shouldn't be a replay system, but to highlight potential reasons why it may be taking longer than expected. These problems may require infrastructural changes, which in the current state of the world, could be slower than usual.

to be clear, I'm not saying there shouldn't be a replay system. I just wanted to point out the reason that there isn't one yet, and why it takes so long.

every game has "fog of war"... cs has it as well

riot just framed it as if they're the only ones doing it but faceit has been doing it since 2014 and valve since 2016

How you know volvo isn't behind all cheats on the market? i can imagine all cs cheats are made by volvo himself just to profit even more.

Valve has a completely different anti-cheat philosophy (and worse, IMO) than riot. They do not want to be intrusive at all.

faceit does though, and they have no cheaters

They haven't done it because it's not in their high priority list, end of discussion.

i think its because kids doesnt care about replay system, the competitive aspect of the game, or custom self-hosted servers they just want to show off their skins have an e-date and make tiktok content (valorant players are kids)
