[CLIENT] Attempting to Reconnect

Stonewoof·10/19/2014, 5:37:33 PM·9 votes·2,004 views

Whenever I play a game I will usually be forced to attempt to reconnect, even though my internet is fine. Here is what usually happens: Step 1: I get into a game. Step 2: I am able to play for a little while. Step 3: I am forced to attempt to reconnect (it will keep saying this and will never actually connect to the game). Step 4: I close league, reopen it, and connect to the game again. Step 5: After I connect to the game again, either two things will happen, I will be able to play for about 5-10 minutes then I am forced to attempt to reconnect, or I will be able to play for about 1-3 minutes before I am forced to attempt to reconnect. I know for a fact that it is not my internet because I have been in Skype calls as this is happening. I have also restarted my router many times and used a VPN and nothing seems to work. Please Riot fix this problem it is making the game unplayable for me and many others.

You're right, it's not you. This has been happening to a lot of people lately but Riot hasn't made any mention of it.

Same thing. Pissing me off. My team won one of my promo games but because I was reconnecting I don't get jack shit. Ty Riot.

This has been going on for a long time for my friends and me as well. I wish this could get fixed. Being disconnected for a minute can be game changing weather its during a team fight or in lane where your opponent sees he can kill you because it is easy to tell when somebody is lagging or disconnected

Whenever I try logging in, it says this: Did not receive a response from server, attempting to reconnect (1) and the one goes to a two, then a three, and it always says that the login server did not respond.

This is the glitch but Riot absolutely refuses to talk about it and has remained silent despite it being rather wide spread. http://youtu.be/ptihJSaUd_c The glitch is that the game treats you as if you disconnected despite not connection issues and wont allow the client to send data to Riot servers, but you still get data from them so you can actually see the game continuing for as long as you want until the game d/cs you for inactivity.

Riot's behavior regarding this severe issue is embarrassing at best, as usual anytime there is a wide spread connection related issue in their game. Worlds? Ok, doesn't matter if half of NA can't connect for a few days. Worlds? Its fine if everyone in NA is experiencing 400-5k ping spikes and our servers have crashed about 5x in the last couple of hours with games vanishing and no loss forgiven. We will update them on the status after worlds. Etc. Etc. Doesn't help that their communication has plummeted with the introduction of the new boards, was already bad enough before.

they don't wanna fix it :( I haven't played in a month now since I consistently just DC'd.

They have made a post addressing the issue. I urge everyone to provide them with the information that they need so that the problem may be fixed. It is in the "Help and Report" section.

Having this problem on windows 8.1, I tired everything and it just keeps happening. I dont have this problem with no other online game just League of Legends. Pretty impossible to play when you can dc at any moment and have to manually reconnect to game. Very surprising that they most played on pc can't fix their problems with all the money they are racking in.

Same exact problem here...

not me plz10/19/2014, 8:22:43 PM1 votes

Well i have 2 laptops ( almost the same specs ) , one with win 7 and the other with win 8. The one with win 7 runs the game without any dc , and the other one i get disconnected at least 5 times per game. So obviously it's not the router or the isp or whatever else riot is trying to wash their hands with... Oohh and both have the same network settings... idk what is the real problem , but i guess it has something to do with windows 8

It happens in EUW too since the new Amsterdam datacenter.
