To provide a more detailed explanation, error code 128 occurs when there is a conflict or disagreement between the VALORANT game client and the Vanguard anti-cheat system. The Vanguard anti-cheat system is designed to detect and prevent cheating in games, ensuring fair play for all users.

Additionally, this error may occur if the Vanguard anti-cheat file itself is corrupted. Vanguard systems rely on a set of files to function properly, and if any of these files are corrupted or leaked, it can result in error code 128.

Development of Valorant began in 2014 and went through an extensive beta phase before official release. The closed beta period began on April 7, 2020, providing limited access to selected players, allowing them to test the game and provide feedback. After the closed beta, “Valorant” was officially launched on June 2, 2020, opening it to a wider audience.
In terms of gameplay, Valorant draws inspiration from the popular Counter-Strike series, which is known for its tactical shooter mechanics. The game incorporates various elements from Counter-Strike, such as a purchase menu that allows players to purchase weapons and gear before each round, spray patterns that affect weapon accuracy, and increased inaccuracy when moving.
These mechanics contribute to the strategic nature of the game, where teamwork, communication, and precise aiming skills are crucial to success. Valorant features a series of different playable characters called “agents.” Each agent possesses unique abilities that can be used strategically during a match to gain an advantage over opponents or to support teammates.
The combination of gunplay and agent abilities adds depth and complexity to the gameplay, encouraging players to adopt different play styles and team compositions. Valorant blends tactical gameplay, character abilities, and gun mechanics to deliver an engaging and competitive multiplayer experience. As a free-to-play game, it has gained huge popularity and a loyal player base since its release, attracting both casual gamers and esports enthusiasts.
