It has been three weeks since the last Valorant patch came out, and in the version 3.03 update, Riot will be looking to shift things up a bit with the current meta. Viper’s ultimate bug will be reverted, and now the Pit will start forming around her and not from her cursor placement spot.
Players will now be able to shoot through Radianite Boxes, and custom games will also have the Auto balance feature, which will balance the team based on their current MMR. Multiple crosshair settings will also be available from Valorant patch 3.03 onwards.
Valorant players looking for a detailed description of the patch can look up RIot’s official website. However, for a brief overview, here are all the major highlights.
Valorant patch 3.03 official notes
1) Valorant Agent changes
Viper
- Fixed a bug where Viper’s Pit started forming at the cursor placement point instead of around Viper
- This is technically a bug fix, but it alters the way Viper’s Pit is deployed. Riot accidentally shipped a bug in 3.01 that caused her ultimate to spawn at her placement reticle instead of around her. A lot of Viper mains thought this was an intentional buff and might not be happy about this revert.
- We think that Viper’s Pit can be a very potent tool for holding an area. Given that impact, it’s important that her team pays the cost of securing ground before she can place her ult, as opposed to being able to cast it forward into areas without giving up her position.
2) Valorant Gameplay Technology Updates
Crosshair Settings
- Turn on "Use Advanced Options" to additionally customize your ADS crosshair and sniper scope center dot!
- Added the ability to save and switch between multiple crosshair profiles
- Added a setting to set a minimum firing error across all weapons
- Added a setting to use the primary crosshair with shotguns
3) Valorant Map Updates
- You can now shoot through Radianite crates, with appropriate weapons, from all angles
- Previously, players could shoot through some crates from limited directions, but not others.
- Updated ziplines to allow the 'Use' key so players can detach at any point
4) Valorant Social Updates
- Added a system that enables Valorant to automatically revert any AFK penalties applied to players in the event of unexpected server instability
#5. Valorant Competitive Updates
- Autobalance button added for custom games with > 6 players based on players' MMR
#6. Valorant Network Updates
- Improved the accuracy and responsiveness for the ping calculation
- Ping stats now show both the average and the max ping values to help players better understand your networking conditions
- The average value is calculated from multiple samples collected over a small interval of time—the max value is the largest value within that sample.
Valorant Bug Fixes
- Fixed a big where Killjoy’s turret was not affected by concuss
- Fixed Astra’s Gravity Well from pulling people while they were attached to ascenders
