takes ages to load into games
I load into everything late. Half the time I miss part of or the entirety of the first round. I miss over half of deathmatches. I have ethernet but the problem persists. It didn't used to be this bad and has deterioted over time. Anyone know any solutions?

The issue you're experiencing could be caused by various factors, such as network issues, system performance, or software conflicts. Here are a few steps you can try to resolve it:
1. Network Check: Since you're on Ethernet, try switching the port or using a different cable to rule out a connection issue. Make sure your internet speed and stability are good.
2. Firewall: Ensure that VALORANT is allowed through your firewall. Follow the steps here: Firewall Configuration.
3. Background Programs: Close all unnecessary programs running in the background, especially those that might consume a lot of resources.
4. Disk Health: Check your disk for issues. Slow load times can sometimes be attributed to a failing hard drive or SSD.
5. Reinstall VALORANT and Vanguard: Sometimes a fresh install can resolve persistent issues.
6. Update Drivers: Ensure your network drivers and GPU drivers are up to date.
