Valorant 4.0 patch notes
The regular patch notes release schedule will allow players to see the new agent, Neon in the roster from now on, and some effective bug fixes as well as a major map and weapon update.
MAP CHANGES:
LINK
- The double cover stack at short A has been changed to remove a very powerful
- one-way smoke location that made the area a bit too difficult for attackers to approach.
- Sentinels will still be able to obstruct the space, but the new layout should open up a few options for attackers entering.
- There's also a small new bench for some confusion on that first look.
BREEZE
- Increased width of main choke A and removed 50/50 (where you have to choose one of two locations where an opponent can be)
- Added a stack of two crates in the cave
- Adjusted cover at the back of site A and extension of the pool to the back wall
- Curved wall fitted in the middle
- Added cover to the pillar on site B, blocked off the back site with a new wall, and added a stack of crates to wall B
- The door on B cannot be reactivated until it has finished opening or closing
Valorant 4.0 COMPETITIVE patch notes
- As of Update 4.0, accounts that have not yet played ranked mode must reach account level 20 before they can enter the competitive queue.
- For those who have not yet reached account level 20, but have already played competitive queue, you will still be able to play ranked
WEAPON UPDATES
SCRUM
- Right-click hitboxes are now 1.5 times larger. Left-click hitboxes are now larger than a right-click and also have a slightly longer range.
- Targets closer to the center of your knife attacks will be hit first, so you'll still have precision if you need it.
- Bonus:Cut walls now have instant feedback when cutting walls (planned on client side)
SPECTRUM
- Shot error occurs at earlier stages of the ball
- For example, instead of errors occurring at bullets 4, 7, 10 (in terms of firing order), they will instead occur at bullets 3, 6, 8
- Increased pitch and yaw (vertical and horizontal) recoil multipliers when running/jumping/on the ascender from 1.25>>> 1.5
- Number of bullets protected against yaw change (horizontal) while spraying, decreased from 8>>> 5 bullets
- Down time to pass from .24>>> .18 seconds
- While spraying, the time until you can change yaws again (horizontal movement) is shorter, which means it can happen more often
ARES
- Removed Top Twirl
- Rate of fire increased by 10>>> 13
GUARDIAN
- Removed rate of fire penalty on ADS (Aiming Down Sight)
- Added an extra chip before it enters a recovery curve
BULLDOG
- Hip fire rate increased by 9.5>>> 10
- Recovery on burst shot improved from 0.4>>> 0.35
- Inaccuracy stacks each time the weapon is reused before a full duration of a weapon's respective weapon cooldown. A lower recovery time should improve the effectiveness of burst shots.
BUGS
Game systems
- Fixed an issue where the Signature Kill Counter was not updating visually
Esports Features
- Trainers should no longer experience the issue where swapping targets with number keys + mouse clicks sometimes fails.
