Not spending anymore after reading that dev post

#1

supr

I've spent alot of money on this game. More then I want to admit. always defending it against nay sayers. Had so much copium thinking it'll be the biggest esport in the near future. But after reading that dev post everything changed. I'm heartbroken.

I understand the need to generate money but it seems that's all they truly cared about.

The whole community waited 2 years for a replay system to now be told that there were never plans. And basically everything else we asked for and promised was actually never planned.

Great job riot. Your L team will kill your game.

riot caters more to the casual gamers, it has been very apparent with how they approach their moba. that's what makes them most money, the skins and the casual player experience

As this point they have made enough money to end world wide hunger. Catering to both casual and competitive players is NOT A HUGE ASK.

Their latest "ask riot" dev post basically destroyed all hopes for everything the community has been asking. The way they put it is as if they did not work on it in the first place.

The way they put it it looks like they are focused on stuff that makes them money

Coming from LOL alot of us really thought this will be the next biggest game,thus the willingness to spend. Too much hopium I guess. And I'm convinced valorant is run by a small project team of no more then 15 staff.

Seriously how small is the team at work with these things? Team of 5?? 10?? I'm not one to complain but are they going to make us wait years for 1 feature at a time?? A new feature every 2 years is their target???? Holyyyy

tell me you never work at big company without telling you never work at big corp

this is not about resourse to build things, every changes to valorant from backend,microservice,client etc need approve from higher management that oversee valorant roadmap or development

they could work on that 2 month and release to market fast, but decide not to because they need work on bigger picture the state of the game
this is not about how they can or not do that

Dude.. 99.9% of us here are consumers, I don't know what your first sentence is trying to imply. We can voice our concerns and complaints. I'm making this thread because I obviously care.

Yeah I understand all that but them telling us since beta that they are working on a replay system and now saying "no plans for a replay system" is crazy and I don't know how anyone can defend that.

And 2 years for a new major feature is ridiculous

There so many things happen in the background most people never know

You know the agent like yoru that its first release has tons of bugs on basically every map, not to mention other agent like KJ,Chyper,Omen etc that has list of bug,glitches etc that player can exploit

Valorant priorities stability over fast update

Valorant can make update faster but people will still complaining because things bug as hell and crying to riot for fix it

Just look at csgo 10 year old game that glitch smoke that can cancel each other smoke

This is situation that riot try to avoided as much as possible

They never promise that in first place

They already plannning certain things + already work on in 2020

But they change plan/priorities to other things etc

There more than 1 team work on val, hell at the time we writing this
Maybe Team that work on replay already moved on to other team or even not work on riot anymore

I think if they atleast open the game for spectators from outside lobby, we can have a 3rd party replay system. something similar to allstar.gg

I don't care how they do it. They said since beta they are working on it and now saying "there are no plans" is just crazy to me.

I don't even want to log on now. There is literally nothing to look forward to. That's literally what the entire dev post is telling us, they have no plans to give us anything we've been asking.

im honestly not surprised that riot will take a long time to introduce a reply system. League didn't have a reply system for a very long time, content creators just used third party apps so they could record their games
