“Valorant is the best clone of Team Fortress 2 / CS. The game is not 10/10, a score of 8.5 will be fairer, because you need to refine the stability of FPS and server optimization. ”
“This game is just another mediocre free shooter, nothing interesting, and the servers are terribly lagging.”
“The game looks unfinished, very crude. Animations are some kind of joke. Graphics, movements, shadows and textures – all this reminds me of free 2007 shooters. I still doubt that this is a modified product that everyone was so hype. The cards are small and very simple, everything looks like a draft. ”
“3/10. No emotions when I play this. Wacky map design, unbalanced weapons, broken character skills and hitboxes. I wrote a review after two games with a good KDA. “
“This is the worst shooter of 2023. This is just a copy of Overwatch and CS: GO. In theory, Valorant can be played, but you do not get anything in return. The graphics are bad even for 2012. I played this 20 hours in beta, nothing has changed since the release. Good luck. “
“The game is just fantastic. I played a lot during beta. Don’t listen to these CS fanboys who are worried about a new competitor. ”

“In principle, the game has good performance, excellent, but magic is already superfluous, and it’s worth simplifying the menu and making visually displayed elements of the characteristics of weapons. Why is the game for rating available only to a team of 5 people, I have no way to collect such a number of people, do a team auto-search from the same people, otherwise you have to play without a rating. I deleted the game because I am merging it because of magic. ”
“Congratulations, Riot! Your support is excellent, but with the imagination it is terribly tight. This is not a game. This is a product that is generally unclear due to what should like. Gameplay Taken from another game almost completely, but even more dull and solved the dynamics of the word at all. Heroes? The only significant difference from CS: GO was also done on the hell: the characters are outwardly too simple, their appearance is devoid of interesting details that would say something about him or complement the image, they already talked about abilities. Novelty? If the clone of the game, which has long been released, can be called a novelty, then yes. Riot Support? Yes. Yes, and yes again. This is essentially the only factor that attracts players to itself: to move from a game that developers don’t care about, into a game with support. ”
Together with the release of Valorant, developers released a patch with which they changed the balance of some heroes, as well as redesigned the design of one of the cards. Details on this are here.
