In game crashing

Kooed·Dec 12, 2018·6 votes·3,810 views

For the last month or two I have been having a re-occurring issue where my game will randomly freeze, I am unable to alt-tab or alt F4 or open task manager to force close. My only option is to ctrl alt delete and log out and than log back in. I have tried to reinstall, I tried the repair tool, I have tried everything and it seems to be happening more and more, I am able to still hear sounds in the background and my podcast is still playing so it is not my computer.

Any tips would be much appreciated.

Same thing has happened to me twice. But it happens in the start screen so at least the teams can remake. Client crashes and i have to restart computer. Once I get back on i get the afk behavior for 10 minutes and lose LP. How is this right? You want new people to play this game, but they get penalized for a problem that's not there fault.

This continues to be an issue for me. I've been posting about it for months. Others have as well. Riot continues to ignore the issue. They refuse to acknowledge that there is a problem with the game. People like you and me keep getting punished for riot's shitty programming. and yet we are enough of a minority that riot doesn't give a shit. So good luck. Riot won't help you.

I just disconnected from a game 10 minutes ago and as I was going through the riot files downloaded to my computer, I noticed a 'lockfile' was modified at the time of my disconnection. maybe that has something to do with this error? UPDATE: i tried deleting the lockfile which is created upon loading the game, it worked for a game after my original post and im trying again to see if its a certain fix.

That really is a shame, its very frustrating to the point where I almost no longer want to play.
