Is the Ports Forwarding set correctly?
I keep getting deleted and enemies don't stop while shooting and they have open legs animation whenever they peek and I have no time to react at all, so I decided to do the Port forwarding and possibly disable the Router firewall to try and fix this issue.
Did I set it up correctly?

uh i have no idea how port forwarding would help that?
Idk, just trying everything, cuz maybe the packets are filtered by my firewall/NAT and it misses up to date client to server sync
on my tournament realm client the account feels super smooth and mouse input feels instant and same for kills, no desync, nobody shoots with his legs open and stuff like that that happens to me on my Live client main account
so I was assuming its a cloud-config related issue, I keep telling support to reset it and they don't want to
I even talked with Nu about it
well since i dont understand the link between your issue and port forwarding
i cant really help you here
or tell you what to set
idk who Nu is
do u have the abiility to reset my cloud-config for my account?
What? Riot Nu
hes the Tech Lead
we have tons and tons of tech leads
every diff area has a tech lead
and i dont know all 10K rioters
ah makes sense
and i dont know most of my coworkers by their IGNs
is it possible to reset my cloud-config tho please?
i'm a tech lead also
W
i dont even know what that means, it would be outside my area
hmmm
wherever you talked to Riot Nu, why dont you ask them about it
its my account's config thats saved on your servers
hes busy and he barely replies
so
ah i see, Riot Nu is Marcus
yes, he's the head of eng for VAL i know who that is
Yuh
its my account's config thats saved on your serversthere is no single account config on our servers. we have tons of different services and they all have some state for your account
and I talked to Shaedyn and Altomaro aswell
there would be no single way to reset all of them, and if we did, you would lose all state, including progression, rank, things you own, etc
so that would be a terrible idea
but I really don't know what causes this issue, I really need your help here
and as i said, i cant help
i dont know the issue
and this isnt my area
can you forward me to someone who can help me out?
i cannot
fine
appreciate u
ty
player support is the only official way to get support
and you said you already tried that
they are not helpful at all
they do what they can
they are giving me things i tried trillion times
doesnt mean they will have a solution for you
Being unlucky then
ty tho
but i assure you, they are more helpful than i could be
So what is the main issue?
Have you checked if you're dropping packets? It would also be helpful if you had a video recording of the problem
i can show u how I get deleted in games
and I never have the time to react
?
I will send u the clips
Yes please :D
also did you get an overall understanding of the situation or u need more clarification?
I think the clips will help me understand
here's a fraction of what keeps happening to me, enemies legs just keep merging together and slide on the floor and i have no time to react
also they sometimes kill me while their legs are wide open
you can see my RTT processing and Jitter on the right
and packet loss
nothing spiked
i9 14900K, 4070 Super
optimized for latency
decent internet speed, even when I was in my team's gaming house 1Gb/1Gb DL and UL
it always happened to me on my account specifically
I have my own Tournament realm account for VCL, and nothing of this happens at all
even the mouse sens feels faster and smoother and its the same
same exact settings, video settings, everything
same PC, same network
and sometimes my bullets phase through their bodies, head
even though I shot first, and they have similar ping
This is most likely an issue with the resolution you're using. Valorant wasn't built to use non-standard resolutions.
From what I can see you're most likely using a 3rd party applications to modify the available resolutions
No, its a built in res
its the 1280x960
and i had the exact thought as you
I used native and still happens
no scaling, nothing just pure native and still happens
btw this is native resolution in this video i showed u
or actually nah its just the aspect ratio
look at his legs, they never stop moving, it feels like im way behind
I dont think that is how most people play the game

next pixel im dead
they just skip steps somehow, its so annoying
their movement isn't smoothed out
so my guess, was Live client, needs to be exlcuded from the filtering that the firewall/NAT does, while Tournament realm doesn't have specified ports so thats why it could be smooth, so I tried setting up port forwarding for the live client
I can't really see any issue. If you feel like there is an issue and it's different between computers, You may want to check settings in your graphics driver. As issues with what you perceive could be just because of AI generated frames or smoothing.
I don't have anything bro really
all optimized for low latency, I dont use none of that AI thing
and its always been like that on my account since 2021 maybe
i just wonder why it feels normal on tournament realm and not the same as my live client
even though exact same settings, PC, network and everything
heard theories that large friendlist can cause bullshit to the game, idk if thats true
its like im playing the game on GOD mode fr
found this one too lol
It’s not particularly your cloud config it’s your routing to the game servers either Val is messing up or your provider is messing up
