Μπορεί το τελευταίο patch του Valorant να ήταν ένα μήνα πρίν αλλά οι devs κάθε άλλο παρά αδιάφοροι δεν είναι. Το εν λόγω patch το οποίο και μόλις κατέφθασε δεν είναι αρκετά συνταρακτικό καθώς οι αλλαγές του έχουν να κάνουν πιο πολύ με την ισορροποία του νέου χάρτη που ακούει στο όνομα Icebox, την πρόληψη κατά των smurfers και ένα αμελητέο buff στην Sage.
AGENT UPDATES
SAGE
Barrier Orb
|
Η παραπάνω αλλαγή στοχεύει στο να δώσει στην Sage λίγη δύναμη από αυτήν που έχασε. Μοιάζει αρκετά αμελητέα και δεν πιστεύουμε πως θα την προσθέσει ξανά στο meta.
MAP UPDATES
ICEBOX
Ο καινούριος χάρτης που ακούει στο όνομα Icebox έφερε νέες δυναμικές στο παιχνίδι. Η εξαιρετική κατακορυφότητα η οποία τον χαρακτηρίζει, έδινε στον παίκτη μεγάλο πλεονέκτημα μή υπολογίζοντας όμως το κόστος. Οι αλλαγές στον εν λόγω χάρτη λοιπόν, έχουν να κάνουν με την εξομάλυνση των επί συζήτηση ύψεων και στα 2 sites (Κατά βάση στο A site).
- Reduced the height of the A Belt area and connected it via a ramp to the platform below
- This puts the upper A Belt area more in line with the rest of the verticality in the site
- Acquiring targets up top also requires less vertical movement of the crosshair
- Added a see-through gate here that can’t be passed from the ground level
- Pathing should hopefully be more predictable from attackers approaching the site and defenders retaking the site
- Sloped the wall (first image) and replaced the double stack of Radianite crates in the site with a smaller object (second image)
- This should allow attackers to approach the site more safely, and a quicker retake of the site for defenders
- Reduced the height of the yellow container.
- This allows the top of the container to be fully cleared from several angles as well as reduces the amount of crosshair displacement required when aiming at targets on top of the container
Πρίν την πλήρη λίστα των notes, να υπενθυμίσουμε πως ένα νέο event έρχεται στο Valorant. Το event θα ονομάζεται Snowball Fight και θα διαρκέσει από τις 15 μέχρι και τις 29 Δεκεμβρίου. Θα αποτελεί ένα 5v5 elimination παιχνίδι στο οποίο κερδίζει η ομάδα η οποία θα φτάσει πρώτη στα 50 kill. Θα δίνει την δυνατότητα στον παίκτη που πεθαίνει να κάνει respawn και ο πόλεμος θα γίνεται με όπλο το οποίο θα πετάει χιονόμπαλες έναντι κανονικών σφαιρών.
Η λίστα είναι η κάτωθι:
- 5v5: Team Deathmatch
- The first team to 50 kills wins
- Respawns are enabled, so get back in there
- The snowball launcher is your weapon of choice
- Killjoy has rigged a custom version of Brimstone’s molotov launcher
- Projectile based snowballs have travel time and an arc (make sure to lead that shot!)
- Infinite snowballs—don’t stop shooting!
- The gift that keeps on giving: Power ups!
- Gifts spawn around the map, sometimes a portal appears and gifts come pouring out
- Each gift contains a power up when opened (shoot to open)
- You can only have one of each power up at a time, so make sure to share with your teammates
- If you die, you drop your power ups and someone else can snag them
- Gift types
- Rapid Fire: fire even faster
- Growball: grows over time while traveling in the air
- Ricochet: for all those snowball trick shots off the ground and walls
- Skates: skate around quickly and in style. Jump higher!
- Maps
- Week 1: Check out the festivities on the newly updated holiday version of Icebox (Snowball Fight only!)
- Week 2: Snowball Fight can be played on all current maps
- Progression
- Get 750 XP for each game completed, and 150 bonus XP for a win
- Snowball mode does not progress missions

- Observers can now follow a projectile fired by a player character (Default keybind is F).
- Observer camera will remain at the destination of the projectile and will transition to a free camera from this point.
