              Valorant Day One Errors – Stuck on Range, 300 Ping, More…

              Other players this evening have also reported being stuck in the range and various other problems, from OCE Players getting put into EU servers and the game running at 300 ping in practice range and in unranked matches.

              As you might imagine, there are a few teething issues with the game's launch, but rest assured Riot Games are on the case.

              Replying to one thread, a Riot Games rep told users:

              "We're seeing some issues with one of our peering partners. We're also scaling up additional servers to ease some congestion based on increased game starts (lots of range games starting and restarting). We're hoping to have the high ping resolved shortly."

              As fpr being stuck on the range, Riot explained that issue too:

              "It's related. The peering issue is letting you ping the thing that spins up the game but you're not able to actually hit the game server instance. So the client thinks you have a game available but you can't reach it."

              More to follow.
