[CLIENT] Issues since the Login Problem and Ranked Disable a Few Days Ago
Ever since the login issue and the ranked disable a few days ago, the League client has been amazingly glitchy. Whenever I try to login, I get a PvP.net connection error and have to restart the cilent in order to login. Nothing life breaking, but quite annoying.
At some point on Tuesday, when I was trying to play, the entire League client glitched out. First I couldn’t get to the queue screen when I was queueing with friends. I could hear my friends chatting in the team chat, but the chat would not show up on my screen. There was a match found, but it once again did not show up on my screen and so I couldn’t accept the game forcing us out of queue. Once we reached the game create screen though, I could not type anything in chat.
Panicking, I started checking everything else out on the client and found that my friends on my friend list completely disappeared even though it still says how many friends I have and how many are online. When I access the champion page under my profile, all champs are loaded on top of each other and when I clicked the champ icon, I reach the champ page and all of the skin splashes were extremely zoomed in and all over the place on the champ page. I finally managed to get my messages to send in chat, but every time I sent a new message it would also send my old ones on top of it.
ie. Me: Hi
next message I send will look like this:
Me: Hi How are you?
even though I only sent How are you?
I’ve had a friend that had the exact same issue that day as well. Restarting the client seemed to fix it, but obviously something was wrong.
The last few days, my ping has been atrocious. I’ve been lagging when my internet is just fine. I don’t have a very good computer and my internet is just meh, but normally I can average 80~ ping with 25 fps on lowest settings (which seems pretty bad, but completely playable) but last few days I’ve gotten anything from 155 to 2768 ping. I tried playing a game of customs with no bots just to test out my ping and it was at an atrocious level of 2000+.
This ping as made my already slow loading times even lower. It took up to 12 minutes for me to load in game today. Of which, while in game, I glitched out (somehow whenever I entered into a move command it would auto set me to walking towards the enemy nexus and I wouldn’t be able to cancel it, costing us first blood and me AFKing for the next 15-20 minutes trying to reconnect.) When I try to reconnect, the first time I reconnected the game claimed I was inactive for too long and DC’ed me again. When the league client popped up again, the reconnect button was unavailable and I had to restart the client (twice because of the PvP.net error), relogin and reload the game. By then I was around 12 levels behind in farm, xp and kills. Even then, the entire game I was averaging 6-18 FPS with around 500 some ping. I could not teamfight at all.
This issue isn’t very consistent, as I played a round this morning and was having perfect performance. My friend has been getting the same issue as well though, with League client “lagging” and not showing up invites are match accepts too.
Last but not least, I keep getting errors in client. (I will screencap it next time it happens and insert them in here.) It tells me an error has occurred, even though I don’t know what it is, and that a report has been sent to Riot about it. It’s extremely disruptive and usually when it appears, I have to quit and restart the client, which usually turns into 2 restarts since I get the PvP.net error on the first login.
I really hope that Riot can crack down on these issues and get them fixed. It’s quite annoying when the piece of software that gets you in game doesn’t work anymore. I’m almost tempted to just stop playing completely for a month or two until this goes away because it’s just so annoying to deal with.
Has anyone else have these issues? Any ways to fix them?
