Anyone else sick and tired of Riot never being able to drop an update that works even remotely well? Considering this is one of the highest grossing F2Play games, with nationally televised games etc, One would think you could do better. Hell, a trained monkey could write better code. I took almost a year break ( because of your horrible tribunal update about 10 months ago ) And came back to be able to play for 2 days, then spend the next three days trying to update and be able to play and yet it never works. Its been scanning files and updating and scanning more files for almost 60 hours. I want a refund on the money spent on my account. Maybe not 100%, but at least 50%. For the sheer fact you sold me something i never get to use. EVER. That is all Riot. I would say have a good day, but I dont think you deserve one. Asshats.

Who wants to take bets on him getting angry and misunderstanding why this thread gets deleted?

For the record, writing better code than average is not something you can get trained to, at least not realistically in a significant and timely fashion.

Programming is not just about understanding the language you're using, it's also about data manipulation, system construction, optimisation and management and of course, everything comes down to who has the better logic, ie, brain or not.

For your issue, maybe reinstall is a better move.

you should completely uninstall the game, redownload the exe file, and do a fresh install. that will probably fix it. the issue is you probably had to update from patch 4 something to the latest and it didn't go well.

I don't have that issue, and most people don't. This issue is on your connection and on your rig. Not their's.

And a game isn't that simple to keep flawless. When the whole game is purely multiplayer, all Riot can do is spend each patch period of like 2-3 weeks doing all of the following:

Balance champions and items
Fix bugs
Update visuals 4.Update fluidity
Release new skins

Little bugs aren't easy to fix, either. It's an error in the code. One can't simply look at the bug then just -find- it, they have to sift through so much coding and find the one flaw in it. Cut them some slack, you don't deserve shit for a refund. Asshat.

I personally haven't had an issue with their code in a long time. Might wanna check your computer settings somewhere, or game settings perhaps. Making a program that can deal with hundreds of OS's all on different updates, browser options, ISPs, firewalls, and settings is pretty damn difficult. Work with them, as they are trying to work with millions of people at a time.
