@Riot. Audio/FPS. Day 13.

Maybe constantly spamming everyday about this will bring it to your attention?

Audio distortion and FPS drop in mac client. When will this be fixed? I've gone through all of the posts about this and the last comment was by an employee in skins team who said he thinks you guys are investigating it which was already almost a week ago. Very kind of him to at least give an answer while everyone in Riot in charge of this problem is remaining silent.

Any updates or are you guys just gonna ignore this until the next patch? If so, then tell us so I can stop wasting my time on this board checking for updates everyday and just return to play next patch.

If you guys are just gonna let this problem continue even past 6.7, can you guys also just tell me? I don't want to waste my time clinging on to the hope that you guys would fix it someday or at least give an update about this problem in the boards.

I love this game but it's been getting pretty annoying checking for 13 days that you guys would somehow respond to this. I guess you guys probably don't care one player leaving the game or bunch of mac players for that matter as long as there are greater number of windows players. I'm not sure if that's the best way to conduct a business but who am I to say considering your success in the industry so far.

Anyways hope someone from Riot at least leaves a comment about it here. Thanks.

She* :3 Hello!

I poked the team again, and it appears they're still working to narrow down what's causing the issue, so unfortunately, we do not have an ETA at the moment. That said, they're working on resolving the issue as we speak.

As you can probably tell, this isn't a fix that's as cut and dry as others, which is why it's taking a bit longer to resolve than we'd like. We want to make sure that the fix we come up with is stable and fully tested before implementing anything. (We also want to make sure the issue is fully resolved, not just bits and pieces!)

The platform you're running the game on doesn't matter - we want all players to be able to enjoy the same experience. We do understand that both platforms run differently and in some cases have special edge cases that we need to work through.

Please don't take this as we don't care, it's simply an issue that requires a bit more investigating and digging to get a proper fix.

Side note: I happen to be responding 'cause I had a bit of spare time and was curious what was happening with this myself, so I've been keeping an eye on it. :)

[serious]

i'm having this issue too. I didn't realize it because I wasn't thinking "audio distortion" but that's exactly what happens along with the frame skipping, and lag.

It soumds similar to this Tesla Coil but deeper:

right? and it's only like 1 second of sound... my first thought is this is a new hack/exploit, since it only happens as a fight is about to occur, then again I might just be paranoid.

You are 100% right about this being a priority.

Additionally, this may be unrelated, but yesterday, I had this same occurrence followed by other weirdness, such as the "camera lock bug" which I haven't experienced for a long time, but seems like too much of a coincidence.
