Thanks to a number of devs chasing down the audio bug, we've found & shipped a fix. We'll be turning ranked ON for NA/LATAM/BR, and will ship with ranked on for KR/JP/OCE/SEA and EU/TR/MENA/CIS regions when we patch in the coming hours.
Happy climbing.

With ranked going up... it's time to rank your Act II Rank Badges.
Drop your Act II Rank Badge in the replies and we'll give you a rating.

Purchases are back online. Go get that Battlepass! Or don't. No pressure. We're just happy you're here.

Sorry, misspoke—there's no bonus XP in the Act III Battlepass. BUT (!) you'll find this Battlepass much easier to finish. The timeframe is extended, there are lower total game requirements, and weekly missions have been rebalanced for a smoother climb. twitter.com/PlayVALORANT/s…

In 30 minutes or so, we'll be shipping a stability patch to all regions, which should fix:
- An audio lag bug on Icebox
- Map loading screens not... loading
- Game datacenter text not showing for LATAM players
- A newly discovered client crash bug

Well, that hotfix didn't catch everything - we're aware of a new issue where some of you are experiencing micro-stutters in games (especially during combat). Investigating a fix now as a top priority.

Now that many players have gotten to play Icebox since it launched, map selection rates on Unrated, Deathmatch, and Spike Rush modes will no longer favor Icebox. This will help us get ready for Icebox to join Competitive mode on October 27th.
265
A hotfix is coming later this week that should address the hitching problems that some players are experiencing. This fix won't solve every instance of the issue, but we're actively investigating solutions and working to resolve it as soon as possible.
