Valorant Public Beta Environment servers, also known as the PBE servers, are where updates are introduced for testing ahead of their final release in the live servers.
Players tuning in to the PBE can often get a sneak peek at the patches that are later introduced to the official servers in Valorant.
If you haven’t got the chance to get access to the PBE servers yet, you’re probably missing out on a lot, as the 4.05 PBE patch notes revealed by the developers introduce a lot of new changes to the competitive shooter.
These changes aim to reduce the amount of toxicity in the Valorant voice chat by recording in-game voice comms alongside enabling players to further customize their crosshair by importing and exporting auto-generated codes.
Here’s what you need to know about the Valorant 4.05 PBE patch notes that have recently been revealed by Riot Games:
VALORANT Patch Notes 4.05 PBE
GAME SYSTEM
- Added the ability to import and export different crosshair settings via auto-generated codes.
- To export and share your personal crosshair settings, go to Settings >> Crosshair tab >> click on the icon that looks like an arrow pointing up, found next to Crosshair Profile (it looks like an up arrow chilling in the middle of a bowl). Your auto-generated code will be copied to your clipboard.
- To import crosshair settings, go to Settings >> Crosshair tab >> click on the icon that looks like an arrow pointing down next to Crosshair Profile. Input or paste the code in the provided field and click the “Import” button.
- The crosshair preview at the top of the Settings Menu should reflect the imported settings. Make sure to give it a unique profile name!
SOCIAL
- Speak up for Voice Detection!
- Last year we announced that as part of our plans to curb toxicity, we would begin to record and evaluate in-game voice comms so that we could take action when a report for disruptive behavior is submitted. A very early version of these voice detection capabilities is included in this PBE, so we are asking you to help improve our system by using voice comms! The more you use voice comms the more our system can learn about various articulations, accents, and all that makes a voice unique.
BATTLEPASS
- The Battlepass is currently enabled and it’s displaying content from a previous act. We’re aware of this issue and it’s a bug only affecting PBE.
