[CLIENT] Game is Nearly Unplayable After Installing 4.19

FPS has been fine for me but I can attest to the fact that my ping while not doubling has gone from 110 to 150. Feels like it's just going to get worse and worse over time. Believe it or not when I joined this game I had a ping of 80. Riot doesn't seem to care though. Some days I just wish I could convince everybody to just move to the LAN server.

I have the same issues. My ping was fine yesterday and for the past several months. After update, I have 120-200 ping (normal is 60-80) and I keep missing updates from the server (people teleport a lot, but framerate is always good, so it's not my CPU skipping). My ISP is Cox, if that helps any. It does look like there could be some network issues in play here (see traceroute below) -

I updated today and played 2 games with a group of my friends. All but one of us was experiencing unbearable lag, pings of 130+, all actions and visuals delayed. The opposing teams confirmed that most, if not all, were experiencing the same. I, like EMOFRATPARTY , experienced flawless performance before.

I believe it is just a matter of the update being unstable or not properly delivered, I'm sure it will be fixed very soon. Can't wait to be able to have a good time playing the game, instead of having a good time watching jungle monsters wreck junglers xD

Exact same problem. solid 2 bars of ping constantly, and its like trying to play a flip book. I think the worst example i have is i was sitting mid farming, the next thing i saw 4 champs were on my corpse. Hugely unplayable.

SOOOOOOOOOO Im having the same problem but waaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy worse

I have 1 fps at best in game now when last patch i was running at 50 to 60 fps. I cant even get out of the game i have to turn off my computer and turn it back on cause it wont let me quit.

Specs

Windows 8.1 (64bit) Intel I7-3612 Qm 2.1 ghz (cant remember the exact number off the top of my head) amd Radeon Hd 7730 M with a integrated intel hd graphics 4000 8gigs of ram and i dont know what mother board i have. (sorry i have a laptop)

Same problem exactly. Double normal Ping (120 instead of 60) Massive frame lag and rubberbanding, game is completely unplayable. I've never lagged in this game this badly in over 2 years of play. Also running windows 7, not sure on the rest of the specs.

Same issue here, it seems to have made the rest of my internet uses weird and laggy as well. No idea what's going on here.

Dude of course its laggy as hell. riot cant put out a patch without bugs if their life depended on it. Its not like they havent put out TONS of patches. its really annoying that these guys go to school to becomes designers and all that and yet cant learn to patch without the game falling apart. I swear to god u asshats at riot better put on loss forgiven for ranked since you guys are sitting on your asses and wont disable ranked que. Plus i know you cowards wont even post on this thread but u will post tons on other threads that are just plain dumb.

I too live in Arizona and have Cox but its definitely not them. i have a 60 MBPS speed and they tested it 3 times.

the technicians at league of legends have a good talent for fucking up everything in a patch. Happened 4.17 and 4.18. WHY NOT 4.19?

I just tried to play the game after the update and having horrible latency issues. I have a 38ms response from my ISP node(Cox) with 44Mbps/DL and 25Mbps/UL I have never had an issue before the patch. literally unplayable.

Just tested in a bot game and I have slightly higher then normal ping but do notice a maybe 0.3ish second delay (very weak but faintly noticeable).

I also noticed significant decrease in performance with the new patch. Prior I would have roughly 480+ fps on average and around 420-440 in team fights with vsync off.

Now I have around -100 fps (380) out of combat, around 300 with minor activity/particles and... I am missing nearly 300 fps in small fights just at 200 fps. I wont even bother testing team fights as that would require playing until base in bot game or testing a real game with this mess... I can totally see why people are having performance issues now.

Specs: i7-4770k OC @ 4.6GHz GTX 770 slight OC 2GB 16GB RAM OC @ 3200MHz SSD ~500 Read/Write for OS and game I have no thermal issues sitting at under 40c CPU and 30c mobo.

I'm guessing I would probably see in the range of -80% performance in a full team fight at max settings 1920x1200 resolution with vsync off. Due to how vsync works anyone with it enabled could possibly see in excess of 90% performance loss. Riot really screwed up this patch as far as I am concerned.

Hello Fellow Leaginarys,

I too am experiencing lag like no other, has Riot replied to this issue yet? Might have to wait for this to be fixed before quing into a ranked game. Hopefully they are already aware of this issue and is in process of repairs as we speak.

PS- Dont try normal games either, they lag as well but makes very interesting game play if your ready for a challenge.

Sincerely, Concerned Leaginary

So if Riot knows there's a major issue with disconnects, why are they not disabling ranked or using loss prevention? I haven't been able to start a game without restarting the game client and entering the match late since the patch.

Just entered a champion select lobby, where I could hear the bans and chat going on but my client didn't change from the homescreen into the lobby screen. Couldn't choose a champion or read anything. Hella sweet.

I believe I have the lowest of specs so I see no reason to post them. But seeing everyone with higher specs having problems with the bad patching problem. I'm guessing this game would be completely unplayable for me which I'll check today when I get back home from my course.

I been having some issues from the patches after the Gnar release. Mainly do to certain champions skills causing some fps drop for me like Sona for example. So I'm guessing with the new features added didn't get a bug check to cause such problems for you higher specs. I guess it's more patch/cilent related than the strength of your cpus.

now these people know what east server ping is like! this is normal ping for east server players!!! #EastCoastServer

Hate to be that guy, but welcome to what East Coast players literally have to deal with every game. 120 ping is standard for us, maybe now that it's been experienced by others, it provides better context for why people on the East Coast are pissed off.

Best of luck with getting the issue fixed, despite all that, it's not fun to play with a ping you're unaccustomed to.

I am from arizona and have cox, so hopefuly its better now

Twice i've had to restart my computer in order to then play, if that doesn't happen then it always crashes while loading into a match. Puts me right off even wanting to play when that happens.

Playing in Australia (most of my friends play on the NA server), I have definitely noticed the increase of lag, even if the ping number stays the same. Inputs are wither taking a full second longer then they should, or not even recognising the input. This has been going on for a day now, and making it very awkward to participate in any sort of game.

i keep getting disconnected every 5 seconds and i have not been able to play for 2 days someof my friends have the same problem ..... whyyyyyyyy

This game went from playable to unplayable in one patch. I had just installed a new gtx 970, runs everything except for this game. When I'm finished loading, I am immediately disconnected within 5 seconds. And right when I would like to be ranking for season rewards.

I have never had, in four and a half years, this degree of a problem as I do with patch 4.19. I don't know why Riot would release a patch that completely breaks the game for some of their clients.

It makes me wonder if they ever tested the patch before releasing, and especially at this critical juncture for many who are trying to get rewarded.

All I can say is thanks Rito.

I just wish Riot would wait untill season ends to do all these buggy patch releases, I know alot of people trying to do a final push for their ranked matches that are being screwed by these bugs during loading and in game [client crash, high ping, and lag (myself included)]

Maybe the ping is high because we have all of the players downloading a big patch and/or playing in a game? We complain about this same thing every patch and the problem is fixed in a day or two.

I have been trying to update to 4.19 and it is getting to 33% and taking forever plz help me

I just had such a terrible ping, lag and spikes and got disconnected eventually at the end of the game when we were having a comeback game I get dc'ed. This lag and everything has been happening for such a long time and riot keeps ignoring it.

I have too this problem but at EUNE server. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rXuGdnkjhJU
