Also if you’re moving and want the first shot to be very accurate then all you have to do is tap back on the walk then shot then start walking again. It allows for 1 shots

Veteran fps player here. For about 20 years lol. I play a lot of counter strike on my pc. I played valorant on console for the first time ever yesterday on my Xbox and dropped a 30 bomb with multiple aces. This game easy asf
As a 15 yr old who has been playing csgo since I was 11 same with me for val on pc and console just not multiple aces but I find it easy to 1v4 most of the time because they usually are really really bad at aiming and understanding strats
There’s kind of a few steps to finding one you like. The first just involves playing the game a bit on any character and keeping track mentally of what you seem to enjoy doing the most. Is it just getting kills or is it thinking strategically or is it using abilities to change/spice up the regular way of just shooting and killing? Once you figure out what is the most fun for you, then just look through all the characters and their ability descriptions and find one that seems to have the most abilities that could actually contribute to how you play the game and what habits you have. The reason habits are important in picking a character is because a lot of the time, you’ll find that you just have certain specific things you do every time you play on a certain map, or go to plant the spike, or lurk, anything that is kind of procedural that could create random habits. A lot of the time these habits can be different from the way you enjoy playing the game the most. You can either choose to try to drop the habits/make the way you enjoy playing the game more suited for those habits, or you can pick a character that has abilities that are useful in those moments and can turn those moments into opportunities for kills/getting closer to winning the round in some way. The step after that isn’t necessarily needed but it’s a good thing to consider. Find which maps you seem to have a really hard time getting good use out of your abilities in and find alternate characters for those maps. In general it’s good to have a secondary and even tertiary character that you play well on, just in case your favorite character gets instalocked at the beginning of the game lol. Good luck!
Ty Ditto! Im new to Valorant and fps games and this helps a ton, Ill make sure to focus on these things one at a time. Also if anyone is on pc feel free to hit me up if ya want, I like learning from anyone.
Here’s a tip for economy. Full shields ARE A WASTE, once you are playing with good players it’s pointless as they will always go for the headshot. Light shield is perfect.
Only ever saw valorant gameplay in passing by watching my friends who have PC’s play it. Never owned one so when I saw this game finally come to console I was like oh shoot I can actually try it. I’ve only played for about an hour so I can’t be too hard on myself but I will say it’s so frustrating to just peak a corner than boom. Dead. I’m like bruh shouldn’t I be against other beginners why are all my opponents head shot gods like wtf😭 I’m not familiar with the maps either so I get people come from behind all the time too. I’ll get the hang of it I’m sure but there’s so much lingo I’m not familiar with. What does ADS mean bro😭 I play a ton of overwatch and USED to play a bunch of cod and never heard those terms. Then again, maybe they’re competitive terminology and I’m super casual with my FPS games (I’m a FGC guy). and I’m still confused on a lot of the mechanics too. Just a learning process I guess. ALSO SIDE NOTE , WHAT ON EARTH DO THE OTHER CHARACTERS DO?!?! That’s also kind of annoying😂
Ads means aim down sight (so scoping) in valorant if you press l2, then your sensitivity will become slower,allowing for more precise aiming. You can also press L2 + R3 to aim theough the scope like in COD. Dont worry about all of the terms,as long as you enjoy ans conitinue playing the game,then the knowledge and game sense will come naturally. You should also play with as many characters as you can, to get familiar with their abilities.
@@makedonas6 thanks a lot man! Almost a week in playing and the game is REALLLLLLYYYYT HARD. I get frustrated often, but there’s just something about it that makes me wanting to come back. The game is fun!! It’s just really hard, and demands a lot from the player it feels like. I’m trying not to be too hard on myself since I’m new, but I’d be lying if I said I don’t get discouraged dying and losing a lot haha
@@Latino_Burritobrother, talking from good PC experience, getting fucked for the first month is the basic process as in all riot games ahaha, It Is the initiation. But then the satisfaction of annihilating someone else is just a drug, and also I love the community. I was playing valorant mainly because it's so easy to join a match and find people to speak
Just started playing. Havent been going neg but i dont know how to use my abilities (when to use them). Also im used to moving when shooting so thats gotten me killed a fair bit and ofc not knowing the maps
the oeople u get are basically the beginner players,id say get gekko tho he is very flexible with being a initiator but for beginners try phoenix or brim
@Matthaffordi hear its not that hes hard to use its that ppl dont communicate in higher ranks so your silence n flash dont get followed up on as well as they should. You should throw dagger for info and silencing then flash and have a duelist dash in. Silence isnt very useful, except for info, unless a duelist follows up on it.
It used to be much easier, but right before console release they changed the system to take waay longer Its cause they want people to pay monies or have the xbox gamepass
I would recommend Sova. I learned the game on Sova, and I've always taught people the game on Sova. It's just an easier agent to learn on bc you're entire role is info gathering
I’m new and I have a question. How do I change my knife because I see people having butterfly knives and stuff but how do I get something like that? Do I have to buy something because I know this game is money hungry
That depends on your tv or monitor, just because your console can handle up to 120 fps it doesn’t mean the monitor or tv can. So, unless the monitor or tv can go above 60 it’s gonna cap you at 60
Either you can sign up for the limited time beta and pray for a code that when you type in your PlayStation five store, you can download the game or you can wait for release

You must be patient and learn from every possible mistake. Just keep trying. It’s alright to make errors.
In this game you can win without being too mechanically skilled tbh. Ability usage and coordination can make a lot of fights one sided
The crouching tip felt targeted 😂😅
"must not press sprint, must not press sprint" god damn I crouched again 😅
