Valorant’s Agent Omen disabled in the meanwhile
The official announcement got here as an X put up on Valorant’s social media channel. They have been reposting a video shared by Fayde (Wolves Esports coach). The latter’s put up had the next caption:
“GAMEBREAKING Omen bug: Idk how my participant obtained this bug however he can now see the place the enemies are whereas utilizing Darkish Cowl + hear the footsteps, scorching repair please.”
The accompanying clip showcased the issue and its severity. Riot Video games introduced that the Agent is disabled a couple of hours after that.
Within the newest Valorant Patch 10.10, we noticed a couple of adjustments with respect to Omen bugfixes:
- Reverted a bugfix that was launched in 10.08, which ought to repair the problem the place useless allies spectating Omen may see via nearsights (most notably Viper’s ult) if Omen is utilizing Darkish Cowl
- Reintroduced (and nonetheless investigating) the problem the place Omen couldn’t see correctly when casting Darkish Cowl if he was overlapping one other dense smoke (smokes that obscure imaginative and prescient inside, e.g. Jett Cloudburst, Brimstone Sky Smoke, and so on.).
The present difficulty makes it unattainable to play towards Omen pretty. On the time of writing, Riot Video games hasn’t given any extra updates concerning when the Agent is coming on-line once more.
