Leaverbuster knocked me for never making it past loading screen.

I wish I had thought to record this, but I honestly didn't expect to go from loading screen to 'REMAKE' with literally nothing in between.

I got stuck at 40% with 22ms ping for about 2 minutes, and then made it to 78% with everyone else at 100 before suddenly we're in post-game lobby. The game never told me it failed to connect, I got nothing indicating a bug splat, everything was normal until suddenly I'm out a game I never made it into, but waited for.

I've had this happen to me so many times, sometimes I even get stuck on 100% without ever getting in.

This has been happening to me for a while and support just closed my ticket without even replying. I've stopped playing the game because I'm tired of getting leaverbuster. I've seen so many people complain about this problem but there's been no response.

Yea i just got the same thing in a odyssey game. I was probably reported by everyone in the game because riot decided to have some live server fixs. Waiting to get my leaverbuster.

Oh great i just tried another odyssey game. Guess what happen? Got to 100 percent and never loaded. Probably got reported another four times. Fudge this.

summoner 12 Hey, upvoted the post +1

Exactly the same problem, sometimes reaches 100 percent... For now the best thing to do is to (as soon as you start loading or you wait approx 3 minutes (average loading time)) close the game and reconnect. item 3026 (basically) It has been slower and slower in recent patches to also see my own ping.. but that may be another bug (or the same who knows).

Alright cya summoner 12

This has been a problem since previous patches and nothing has yet been addressed by Riot or fixed as far as we know. I've been through too many loading screens to when I either take longer to load or disconnect and by then, the game has either already started or I cause a Remake. :'(

this has happened to me before too. The ball that spins in the right corner is supposed to basically tell you if you are connected or not right? Well it was spinning for me and everything and my ping was good, but i thought it was taking a suspiciously long time to load in, so I restarted client really quick. Took literally less than a minute, and I get back to a remake screen.

I have this issue pretty much constantly. I do need a new computer, but honestly it's been over the last 3 months that I'm constantly stuck on the load screen, or have to force out and reconnect or don't load in until at least 2 minutes in or later which as an ARAM player makes my team super hate me. I mostly play bot games and still have the issue happen at the same time if I can get through 2 or so games of that hell I tend to be able to play normally for at least 2 or so hours so long as I keep consistently playing. If I take a break for more than 20 minutes the issues start up again.

Sometimes it shows error message Unable to connect without closing or even minimalizing the loading screen window. True pain.

it really isn't fair at all.. they should have in game records of things like this.. i'm sure their servers should be able to see when you legitimately weren't able to connect and didn't just do it on purpose..

The exact same thing happened to me just now, I was looking up what is going on cuz I got punished for leaving while I was in loading screen thinking the game was still loading... no splats no errors, no nothing

Does this mean if I try to queue again and this happen I might get a serious ban or something?! I'm scared to find out..

Seems like a single incident, you won't be punished for it. If you contact Riot support I'm sure you can figure out what caused it and fix the issue.
