Welp, league won't let me fucking login again. Awesome. Great job riot. Keep pushing out skins and ignoring known login bugs.

Apparently I'm in a 2hr login queue

want the skins team working on bugs. They have no or very little idea on how to code and would probably just make the game worse. It's comments like these that make me rage, because it shows how little people actually know about the industry as a whole.

But you can only assume that the people that know how to fix bugs are trying their hardest. I mean it's in their best interest to do so. It has to go through their testing first, to make sure it doesn't break anything else. What's the point of fixing twitch ult if it somehow makes minions invulnerable?

The claim is that rito has too many skins people and too few server stability solutions people, probably because the money comes from creating more skins.

I hope Ecco is neat.

You're an idiot animorph. An inordinate amount funds goes to the art teams, that do ridiculous amounts of shit that doesn't even get used and towards creating little 14 dollar skins to sell that could be being directed towards hiring people that fix bugs, qa, ect. The allocation of funds is directed towards selling micro-purchases and not creating a game that you can reliably login to play.

i'm actually rather satisfied with their balancing act, especially considering that LoL is free, unlike most things I instinctively love

How exactly do you think they make money? Like I agree, I'd love to get more stability. But allocating resources toward skins is net positive for their resources, not negative.

Panzer is wording things slightly poorly but let's be real.

What the fuck more does Riot need to get a better client?

They've been the biggest game in the world for like 3 years now? That's fucking insane, and we still have all these stupid fucking bugs that FRUSTRATE people NEEDLESSLY. We don't have a replay system either. Like fuck.

I think a lot of people don't care about a lot of things, they just want a simple hassle free way to play league of legends.

I've been playing heaps of ADC and I don't know how you guys fucking do it! You have to sit around and wait for the random yahoos that you play with to initiate or ward. Oh man, it's fucko. Fucko to the extreme.

I agree with this absolutely. And regardless of whether they're making money right now, I think they could probably be making more by reducing the frustrations associated with their game. And it IS frustrating.

But I don't think that the problem is that Riot spends a lot of resources on things like skins and champions because that returns a lot of resources. Whatever is keeping them from figuring out a solution isn't the release of skins.

Just start splitpushing a lot. There's no need to be with your team as adc if they aren't really doing anything. Just spend most of your time farming as hard as possible, and only group with your team if it looks like a fight is about to break out, or they need you for seiging.
