New map still resulting in fps drops, high ping and lag [Game]

It's not just me players everywhere still have these issues with the new map and there has been no one addressing the problem, solving it, or acknowledging it from Riot?

Can we get an update, suggestions to solve the problem outside the usual lower settings (which I've done) and buying a expensive new computer. Seriously connection issues and delays in response make the game unplayable and not fun. At least tell us that someone is working on the problem or at least respond so we know that someone is reading the bloody report a bug thread!

wtf? Graphics don't affect your ping first of all or no one would play on high quality settings for games and the map is less intensive then the old SR thus not resulting in an increase in fps.

Ping has NOTHING to do with the new map. It's your internet connection having trouble connecting to Riot servers...

Honestly, for me my laptop has jumped up to 200fps per game and 31ping, on the new map. Where as on the old one i would get an average of 130fps and 31ping. I am also playing the game on Ultra Settings, with everything on their max setting.

Your FPS will be determined by your computers power - i.e. your graphics cards, processor power, internet connection, your drivers (it would be best to update all of them.) Your ping is determined by your internet connection and location. Simple as that. The farther away you are from the location you're accessing, the higher your ping will be due to the fact that the information has to travel greater distances.

In response to both of the players above having "graphical" problems; 1. yours is probably due to some corrupted files. 2. yours is due to your internet bandwith not being as stable as you would expect in high data enviroments (such as a team fight.)

There are also other reasons that could explain your inability for stability on the servers, like your internet provider could be throttling your bandwith causing you to have a drastic change in internet downloading/uploading speeds.

Same for me too. I get Ping spikes up to 1000 or 2000. I lag very hard and if not lagging, then when i'm walking i walk kind of block by block. I tried laptop and computer. My internet has not changed in anyway. When I played the old map, it was just fine. idk if it's the new map or what, but I can't league on summoners rift anymore, i can league fine on ARAM and Crystal Scar though.
