You could spread them all on site, and were likely to end up doing something good with one of them. You could even fake a site with all your stars and get them back insanely quickly, and abuse expensive combos like stun+pull [with higher radius than now] or the "fakesmoke catterpillar" (a line of fakesmokes that hide you as you walk through it) Top that with the gravity well's higher radius, which was likely one of the most controversial ability before Chamber's drama. Now, the nerf didn't really hurt her much at the same time. The main problem was that she required zero planification with her super low cooldowns and 5th star. Now, you simply better not forget your stars at the other side of the map, and cant afford to spam them.

Game development goes like this: BEAN (player) > add scripts (movement n shi) > steal gun model from internet and use it > add scripts (shooting, reloading, etc.) > TEST > make the gamemode you want > MULTIPLAYER (hell) > TEST > models (guns, characters, maps, etc.) > fine tune > DONE They basically focus on the mechanics of the game first, then the visual aspect.
That's for most indie games, some still start on the artistic assets depending on what kinda game it is. But for these AAA titles it's all simultaneous, they have multiple teams working at different aspects of the game at the same time.

The fact that 2022 has less content doesn't matter. It's not like the people aren't working the same hours so it's just that there was less stuff ready, probably a consequence from 2021 having so much
It was inevitable and not going to be any different in the future. They added so much content in 2021-22 because they had been working on it before the game launched. People just assume that they can slap a new game mode or a new agent together in a few months when really it takes them years. The content that was planned before release is out, now they need new ideas and time to figure out how to make them. Hell they only just ran a test for Premier in Brazil recently, when development for that was announced almost 2 years ago.
The earliest footage they probably had no dedicated artists. They got either interns or proper 3d artists to make some REALLY quick models (like 1hr per model) just to have something to test with. To get stuff working you don't need nice models nor good textures.
i feel like this year they just had to fix so many more bugs that updates were stifled, at least from a player perspective. Like the box sound bugs, or the yoru bugs after the update, and certain map walls being made of paper, or straight up not being there. It almost feels like everytime they drop a new gun set or agent the games breaks in some really terrible way. I hope they can optimize their code so that there are less bugs and integration in general is swifter and easier for them in 2023. TLDR chamber is a cringe agent and thank god for the nerfs.
All those random icons and early play test early development stuff are just place holders until they found the exact icon/art they wanted to use for the game.
i forgot when i started playing valorant because the game would not update, it was always stuck at 0.01KB/s and i just gave up until maybe 2 years later (thats an estimate) but i just got back into the game and its hella fun
Still can’t believe chamber made it into the game as buff as he was. Did devs really think it was okay to give an agent a pocket guardian, 2 trips, a jett dash and a fucking wonder waffle??
don't think they should step it up cause it will end up with like 50 agents and 30 maps if they do at the start they had to add more cause we didn't have many agents but now its fine to be slow
do you guys know when did they remove split? i played in 2020 first act and just started to play again like a month ago and my fav map is suddenly gone :0
In Act 3 to do some tweaks and balance out the map rotation, you can still play it in secondary modes like Deathmatch, Spike Rush, Replication, Escalation, Custom and the new Swiftplay mode However in Ep 6 Act 1 they will remove Breeze and Bind in order to add Split back along with the new map
fun fact: it was shatter that was in old valorant but still is in the files even though he got removed another fun fact: he was the one who threw the chicken :/
People keep saying that 2022 was a fall off year content wise for valor at but riot said at the beginning of 2022 that they would work more on the agents and maps they had rather than adding just a bunch of shit and still have to balance shit. No matter what people will complain that devs add to much and don’t pay attention to what they have but once they do they aren’t adding enough content. No matter what they get clowned
I think the change in pace in the game is definitely due to the fact that a lot of the stuff they released early on was likely *mostly* built already, and just needed balancing/reworking. Agents take a long time to make, I expected things to slow down
i participated in the alpha and the first actual skin pack was the reaver pack back in alpha that was the only pack you could get then on release it came out with prime but whoever bought the pack in alpha got all the currency refunded back on the acc
