Patch 9.09 is SUPER laggy...
So, I cannot be bothered with recording the lag, because I genuinely think my laptop will crash running two different apps at once. But back to the story, basically, I joined the range to test out my aim and then jumped straight into a deathmatch... All was fine until I actually loaded in, now when I say loaded in, I loaded in AFTER the warm up timer finished (30 seconds into the actual match). Now, I assume it is the 9.09 patch because before that, I would load in 1 minute before the warm up would end most the time. Now yes, my laptop doesn't meet the requirements to "run" Valorant, but it wasn't this laggy before. I genuinely almost crashed every 1 second, I am lucky that I managed to get 3 kills playing the deathmatch. After maybe 2 minutes into the match, I started crashing out and punching the ever living hell and heaven out of my laptop (not really, but every time I would hit it, the fan would stop and start up again). I am not running Valorant anymore until I get a new PC setup unless Valorant is fixed and made with less assets in the game. On top of this, it was all on the new sunset map, so....
