With the double IP this weekend, if I buy an IP boost will I get an additional bonus? Or would it just not do anything?

Violently Car posted:

For players in the Northeast USA/Canada: has server performance degraded lately? A month or two back, I went from a consistent 80-90ms to a consistent 110-120ms. I also get pretty regular ping spikes. It's not my connection; my ISP changed nothing, my network graph shows only LoL activity, and my performance in every other game has stayed consistent. I've also asked a few other people in the area (from as northeast as Toronto and southwest as Indiana) and I've heard of a lot of similar reports. What's going on?

I've noticed several cases where my ping has skyrocketed. I've been getting 1000+ ping spikes, and last night my ranked games were ~50 ping higher. No one else was using my connection, and I only had LOL running. I'm on the east coast though.

But the ping spikes have been around for a while. Two months or so?

In the past how it works is that you get a 3X bonus when you buy an IP boost during a double IP event. It unfortunately does not double your IP boost.

I see the same thing in the midwest.

I also get random crashes after the game is over where it completely closes the game client and kicks to desktop. I saw a fix for that was deleting config files, but even that doesn't seem to help anymore.

So annoying.

I know basically no one plays CS and I don't know if it's already been posted, but here's a neat prototype trailer for dominion which features LUX BEING A STRONG WOMAN, J4 killing everything, MF doing poorly, and Irelia being nerfed. I guess swain turns into a crow too.

Also teemo, but gently caress teemo.

Can we please get champs in free rotation that are newer than two years old? I realize they want to sell RP for people to buy new characters, but they could whet people's appetites for them by making them free once in awhile. Throw people a bone, Riot.

Also Nunu and Soraka cost 400 IP.

It's annoying though, part of the point of the free rotation is to let you try a champ before you buy it. What's the point of always being able to try Soraka?

They need a balanced release of free champions so every role can be picked. So of course Soraka will be there a lot. Perhaps they should release some more support champs and fix this.

Speaking of bugs, a buddy and I played some League yesterday against a Viktor. Strangely enough, his HP bar was freaking the hell out. Everytime he emerged from a brush/fog of war or anything, his HP bar would be a solid red line through the screen. Made it extremely distracting as hell to deal with.

It doesn't really matter how fast you can type, as your fingers aren't on home row as you play. I can type over 110 wpm but when the window for getting CS is a fraction of a second it can still cost you.

Dear Riot, do whatever you have to do in Season 3 so that people actively request support Lulu. I know Alistar is fuckin' sweet, but I'm bad at playing him and people get mad when you don't babysit them with their favorite support. I don't necessarily want passive lanes, but this trend of kill-combo at level 2 or you hosed it up is frustrating sometimes.

I see no problems with that champion rotation.

Also I still want an Ultimate Bravery gamemode that randoms your champion at selection and locks you into 6 random items in your "build" menu on the store page.

Brackhar I have a usability interface request. I like playing with names hidden and the FPS/Ping display on. I have to bind these to convenient keys/mouse buttons and change them after every game. Is there a way to keep these settings permanent (maybe through a config file change)?

I understand this may be intentional so that newer players can see names and aren't bogged down with useless stuff, but if it doesn't take long is there a way to put this into the client? Thanks for reading!

Essentially it means taking a game and destroying the parts of it that actually work, revamping things that didn't need to change, and dumbing things down for a more "casual" audience. You know...ruining their own game.(Really just what happened to WoW and apparently Diablo III)

Mists of Pandaria is the best WoW has ever been and D3 is steadily improving across the board. 1.05 is adding a series of needed improvements and refinements. You may not like the direction Blizzard chose to take WoW but it can't be denied that it's a successful game that millions of people enjoy. I think Riot definitely looks to them as an example. Especially in terms of how to deal with incredible growth both domestically and internationally. The only other real example in the always-online PC space that compares to League's insane growth is when WoW first hit.

My biggest concern, using another Blizzard comparison, is something like Cataclysm that improved every aspect of the game + convenience, but made the game soul-less, and unfun to play.

Phonepostin', but if there is going to be any kind of ward limit, make it per character instead of per team. this way it spreads the cost out as opposed to prying the while burden on support, makes thinking about vision a team-wide concern, and prevents some toplane-only allstar from buying every ward, two so he doesn't get nunu ganked (so op), and the rest because "u r nyb". it would also let ward-jumpers still be able to do their thing. though on the other hand, anything that makes Lee Sin catchable....
