For Riot: - Remove radianite - Add good old bundles that dont got animations but cool effects to the battlepass - Add a search bar for buddies - Add maybe agent skins to the battlepass - Make battlepass give back the points after u finish (not a must but a lot of games does it) - Add replay system (pls, this is insane how long its taken) - more grindable stuff like the agent contract, they need to extend it. (Kingdom points is a good start, but lets be honest its dog) - make the rotation shop different, like add more skins or something to it. - fix skin prices. - maybe make it so u can break down skins u dont want anymore for like half the points u spend on it back. - skin loadouts for ct and t side. And a lot of other stuff im sure im missing, but i dont really play VALORANT anymore anyways 💀

But it works currently because Riot is going for conditioning. Notice how 100% of the free skins were cheap secondaries, 100% battlepass skins had at most basic variants or models, etc. As a result, not a single Valorant player would expect actually "good" stuff from battlepass because Riot made it clear the playerbase's opinion has no impact on the future content. We can be hating all we want, as long as Riot does it, that means "we" pay plenty enough. People often compare it to Fortnite BP, but Valorant manages to sell pricey skins, and battlepasses full of useless crap to both newbies and veterans.

How about for each tiers instead of grinding XP we get missions. Special missions like agent missions such as stun 10 people with neon or blind 10 people with skye. Or normal missions like get an ace or get a clutch. Make the battlepass harder with these missions and improve the rewards. The sprays , cards , titles are fine but the skins should be special. *2.* Lower the prices of skins OR u can buy the skin the normal price or another option u can pay 80% of the skin with vp and the rest with kingdom credits *3.* The shop should have 8 slots and u have a 2 guaranteed gold a 2 guaranteed purple a 2 guaranteed blue and a 2 guaranteed green

riot should add the option to refund ALL your radianite every 6-12 months, since back then you couldn’t just get a variant you like for a gun, you had to some times buy all the variants to get the one you want. radianite amount should be be increased and be free tiers in the battle pass. VP should also be a part of the battle pass, enough to buy either 1 ultra/exclusive edition skins in the shop. i do agree that sprays and player cards, on occasions, are great currently but i despise that a lot of non-animated sprays aren’t available mid-round especially since most of the good ones are only available pre/post-round.

The other idea I had was you pick out skins for your specific battlepass from a selection of new and previous battlepass skins. That way you can at least get the skins you find cool and make the battlepass more appealing.

the problem riot have with the battle pass is that its so cheap that if people got a skin that had animations they would only buy the battlepass and not actual shop skins at least most of the players which means that 30$ can potentially give someone 3 animated good skins on weapons they actually use and have bad skins on the rest and i think most people who arent looking to spend a lot of money would be fine with that and not buy much more. the problem is after you have a knife skin and you have a "bad" skin for every gun what the point of getting another "bad knife and gun skin from the battlepass which is how it is currently. so either way there are down sides. i personally think they should do 1 animated skin per BP but if they think the BP is too cheap for the value of a animated skin they should maybe make the BP 15$ instead of 10$ or what i think would be the actual solution they would use would be kind of like in clash royale where the BP has 3 tiers instead of the standard 2. and the animated skin would be in the 3rd tier which would cost 15$ or you could upgrade to the 3rd tier at any point with 5$ if you have the standard BP already. that way they would encourage people to spend more money on average on the game which they would like but also make the BP not ass. i think this is the most realistic way to make it better and more profitable for them at the same time.

I really think they could potentially earn more from re-working the battlepass as it kind of entices casual players (people who don't play the game too often) to buy something from the game. I know a quite a few people who just refuse to buy skins because the battlepass skins are bad and bundles are too expensive. This way, instead of having a percentile of people buy from the more premium skins, they could potentially earn from a larger volume of people. I don't play Apex often but I sometimes buy the battlepass because it's cheap and don't care too much on not finishing as it kind of repays itself the next time you do finish it.

I just hate that the only thing XP goes towards anymore is just battle pass, and the small event things they have done like 2 of since the change, kingdom credits are fine for the item shop, but you need wayyy to much of it to go through the agents lines. And, at least, if they are going to make a bundle super expensive like this, have it be that you just buy the variants, that you get the animation and such as the base for each gun, and that the upgrade is the different looks. The only reason I even bought the bundle is because I happened to have just gotten paid, and even then I probably will not be buying another bundle for the next 6 months. I do wish that the battle pass was a bit more beefed up, I'm usually done with it in like 3 weeks if that, and then the XP goes nowhere... overall Valorant should just start listening to their non-pro/non-content-creator player base.

I agree with you in all your points. Just here to add about the fire skin that you say it would be better to have it in battlepass; The reasons they also release these mid low tier (basic anim) skins is because they need to have low complexity skins between major releases, not everything can be super high tier skins, producing those and testing them takes quite some time even for the resources of Riot and it also helps to hype the higher quality ones. Also each skin release is designed to boost the Season Chapter they are, Riot kind of releases 2 high quality skins per season and 2 low quality. I agree w u and I would love for them to work on more of those and also include them in battlepass too but knowing Riot they are not willing to lose any revenue even if the low skins are not great they can still sell those separately from the battlepass which is only 10 USD avg. Lots of players have been complaining how they have been only releasing part 2 of very famous skin lines and yall remember the drama of the Gaia melee and the way they just reused the animation from an old bundle and quickly updated it to have some more uniqueness to justify the value? well that was all possible because we all roasted them on twitter and reddit. I belive in your points, I also think Radianite is USELESS, I hope they take time to understand the sentiment of the ppl who played a lot and have hundreds of dlls invested in.

This video speaks so much volume that it should make sense to every game at all. everything needs to start evolving with cosmetics and things that actually worth your money not just for the sprays and banners but the skins as well. it should be more better and understandable to be hype on grinding for, not just stay in a level of being the same design, sound and effects for. at least reactive, unique skins and animations that people would spend less for and be more than happy than a $100 bundle they will never get and enjoy all the time (and just find people who have then and request for their skins) Valorant should start paying more attention for these kind of things instead of making skins seem like they're unreasonably expensive and start acting for the community. I'm sure they would peak more sales if they start on making the battlepasses finally to have a good change.

honestly they can do just one thing and it would increase the sell of battlepass , the filler bundles like crimson beast , soulstrife , should come with battlepass and the upgradable bundle's time should be increased , honestly it's not going to affect their skin bundle sells at all cause even though those filler bundle has effect it doesn't even start to compare with premium/exclusive/ultra skins , so people who buy those skins will still buy them.

Definitely Agree Broo. For me Overwatch Battlepass is worth way much more because it has a premium skin (even the legendary one). Plus Overwatch 2 battlepass can be bought even without spending a dollar, because we can grind to get enought points to buy it

The biggest turn off for me is that the Valorant battlepass doesn't offer any "return on investment". Look at Fortnite or most other games that offer a battlepass - you get back half or even more of what you paid. In Valorant you get back nothing and overall just every battlepass skin is really mediocre. So much of the battlepass is just filler items.

Ive been saying this since episode 3, for the first few battlepass I was like "okay they are starting off slow with the really really cool stuff" but after that riot has done ABSOUTELY NOTHING NEW FOR THESE PASSES! Ive always said that the BP only holds value for RP, sprays and cards other then that its useless. sure if you have no skins then its nice they give you something, but the moment you start building a collection of PREMIUM skins then the BP skins are nothing exciting. I agree with that in the BP there should be a skin line with sound effects and animations. personally i would LOVE if RP is removed all together but, I think it would be a cool at the end of that line we got a purple tier or higher skin with FULL animations, sounds, kill banner, and finsher. And by unlocking that skin then for the entire skin line those skins get all those effects too for free! It would be a win win situation since riot still gets to make money off the rp since if you dont unlock that final skin then you would have the buy the extra animations with rp. And it would be a win for the community since we would actually get some really cool skins lines finally in the BP and have a REAL incentive that ALL players can now be excited about grinding and have a really cool rewarding reward at the end of it.

so you're asking for free animations for a whole damm skinline because you unlock a skin in a 2 month battlepass that can be completed in 40 days while the people who buys bundle need to buy radianite points seperately cause you want them enitrely removed from bp as well , you're asking for more than what they give to players who buy bundles and that is for buying the 1k battlepass? Have you thought that if they give purple/pink/premium skins in bp why would people even buy bundles ?

@@Kat-y_L Hmm I see what you're saying. The skin line doesn't have to have anything anything super crazy just enough to be worth grinding for. Maybe the entire skin line getting everything might be a hell of stretch lol but I do think a skin line should get at least tracers/sound effects with a banner. And the final skin having the whole package. Regardless if this does seem like a downside to riot it would put much harm to them since they would have bundles that they know people won't be able to skip. Also let's be honest here, when it comes to skin rarity it has really meant shit since game out. You have purples like spline and crimson beast line that basically have zero effects and charged us the same damn price as reaver or ion. If riot truely was worried about sales they would have marked those as blues since that would have profit them greatly if done so.

@@tunnel77xx32 I do agree they can add one skinline such as the soulstrife or crimsonbeast with minimal effects which aren't not comparable to premium skins with upgradable effects . Other than that if they remove rp points entirely the sales will drop in ridiculous speed , i also agree that they should atleast give 300-400vp back so that you can get a free battlepass after buying 3 or 4 .

they really shot themselves in the foot by making skins 100 dollars, if they made the skins cheaper i bet they'd make more money overall because more of us would buy them. I'd absolutely drop 30 dollars on the sentinels of light bundle and i'd be incentivized to continue purchasing skins because they wouldn't break the bank. idk who they're targeting with these prices but absolutely not the general public

You have a point lmao The thing is.. Battlepasses are also released for way too long and during each battlepass a few bundles get released during that time period in which if you buy those bundles or even a few skins from each bundle you won't have enough radiant points to upgrade each gun either if you've purchased more than one skin from each bundle. I have this problem a lot. It's in regards to your point of only content creators and streamers would purchase radiant points. This is just another reason why a player may purchase radianite. I'm sure riot already knows this

I wanted to buy a bundle like 3 months ago. But i didn't because i had 0 radianite. I wanted to put 10€ or 20€ to buy radianite. But i quickly realised i needed to put 100€ ! So i just did not buy the bundle. I think radianite stops people from buying. And riot should delete it or make it way cheaper

im most pissed about the paid skin bundles. They inherently have 0 value, you can't sell them or trade them. Releasing £100 bundles that are immediately worth nothing the moment you equip them.... The New kuronami bundle, yes it may look fantastic, but its not worth £100. Its not even worth £30. No one is buying skins that cost £100 that you cant sell or trade, except streamers or people with money to burn. If they made them £20 though, i'm willing to bet there'd be at least 5x as many people willing to buy them. Which if you're even remotely good at maths, would mean you'd actually make more. Most people are gonna see the bundle are gonna go "oh thats cool, its £100? Yh fuck off"

That's not how it works. No math needed. Just braincells. in the first place 100 is not much for most people. its a lot for kids who really shouldn't be spending money in the first place. literally 20 is a lot for kids unless they are spoiled or spend their entire allowance on the skins but if bundle was cheaper more people would buy bundle sure well ofcourse but they also get 5 skins in the process and likely to not buy as much skins. With the current system people who can't afford bundle buy standalone skins instead for 1775 + so they would definitely be losing profit if they changed the price to 20euros. Also if you think 100 is expensive for cosmetics you haven't played any pay 2 win game or even worse gacha games.. These games are predatory af. When you login you get notified of all the shit in the store etc. ads everywhere.. Don't complain when you have it so good 5 skins for 100. on some games you get 1 skin for 400 euros and its a rental for half year.

Riot needs to do a lot of reworking for the casual progression (battlepass, kingdom credits, radianite, etc.) because it's simply bad and outdated. Bundles are not worth the prices, especially when you're getting scammed on the radianite train. The whole games monetization is a joke and I'm not sure how much longer it'll last if it continues to hurt the game. If I wasn't grinding ranked, I have zero other reason to play the game, and once I hit the rank I want, it's very likely I'll stop playing the game entirely if nothing changes. Riot knows what they're doing and they're going to continue doing it because people keep buying their products. It's one large scam, and until the player base drops off, Riot will take advantage of as much as possible.

7:00 why not? It has not to be a whole bundle in the battle pass but maybe a sixth skin of the bundle that drops at the beginning of every act in the shop which is fully upgradable... In other games it's normal that the best skins of the game are in the battle pass. Look at Fortnite or apex for exemple where reactive skins are only available in the bp and were never seen in the store, .

One way I think about it is by comparing it to games that release expansions like destiny. For $30 aud less than this new skin bundle you get, 4 season passes across the whole year, a limited edition new weapon, access to activities that are otherwise unable to be accessed, a new campaign, a new area to explore etc etc. and all of that is still cheaper than one valorant bundle. (Unfortunately I am a degenerate and will be buying it anyway but that’s not the point)
