Each update make my game worse
This keep happening from last year, when Sunset was introduced.
Everytime I try to load in the game freezes at the card loading screen, and always starting at the end of the round or later. I get so many afk penalties for this.
Even when someone dodges the map selection, my game doesn't respond and automatically queques into another lobby, but for me the screen is still frozen at the map name.
I tried to uninstall e reinstall several times but it doesn't work. Some say it's my HDD (I always played there, and it never had issues). I can't move my games on my SSD due to storage issues.
Is there a fix to this madness????

It sounds like you’re experiencing a frustrating issue. Given your description, it could be related to your HDD or background applications conflicting with VALORANT. Here are some steps you can try to resolve this:
1. Update Drivers: Ensure your graphics card and other essential drivers are up-to-date.
2. Optimize HDD: Run disk defragmentation and error checking tools on your HDD to improve performance.
3. Reset Network Settings: Open Command Prompt as an administrator and run the following commands:
4. Check for Background Applications: Some software can interfere with VALORANT. Close unnecessary background applications and ensure no problematic software is running.
5. Increase Virtual Memory: Sometimes increasing your paging file size on your HDD can help with performance:
- Go to System Properties > Advanced System Settings > Performance Settings > Advanced > Virtual Memory, and increase the size.
6. Adjust In-Game Settings: Lower the in-game graphics settings or enable 'Low-Spec Mode' in VALORANT settings.
If the problem persists, consider submitting a ticket to Riot Support for further assistance.
