Fun Alternate Game Modes Unavailable

DBS Ronovon··3 votes·748 views

Why are Ascension and Dominion available every week to play, and the FUN modes like URF, and Hexakill not available? Let's think about this for a second. The modes that everyone play and enjoy are unavailable and URF mode was completely taken away for some stupid all random version. If you are a developer, and you're reading this, I'd like to let you know that making games isn't about keeping players from having fun, it's about providing a fun experience, thus the concept of gaming, which people do for fun. Developers that think it's okay to keep players, who pay money for you to stay in business, from having fun so they can force people to choose the only option, which is some LAME game mode no one enjoys for their own amusement is unacceptable. Don't create any more game modes which encourage the player to stop using their beloved champ, so they can ride some stupid vehicle or launch a siege weapon, it's not cool, not fun, and ruins the game. People was URF, ALL FOR ONE, and HEXAKILL, that's all. The other game modes suck, and if you want some good ideas on different modes to make, try making a single player/ co-op story mode/ campaign mode so players can have fun playing their champ. The lore and story are lacking in League, and players shouldn't have to play bots or multiplayer only, it's been long enough, so let's get working on that story mode. If URF Mode and All for one are not available because you think players will play those game modes more than ranked 5v5, then you're right, because people want to have fun. Players won't stop playing the ranked modes especially if you offer incentives. Reward players don't punish them. Please Riot, refrain from making only lame modes available and punishing your players. You could be making a lot more money if you keep players happy.

Urf isn't available because

A) riot doesn't love you enough B) they have to retweak it everytime they release it or its just going to be a shitstorm of whining

URF is fun. Them doing work isn't something we should be fighting to prevent. They work and make money, let them rework it.

i don't like dominion and ascension but riot says it causes a lot of problems in terms and balance and lots of other things, urf takes a lot of work on riots behalf aside from the patch notes, bug fixes, new champs and skins, and everything else that goes into the game

No one likes Dominion and Ascension because they are not fun. How about that story mode they need to finally release? They can make CG videos but no story mode?

Not voting because poll is too biased.

Anyway, everyone has different tastes and thus different people like different modes. You apparently like URF, OfA, and Hexakill while disliking Ascension and Dominion. On the other hand, I think that Dominion is the best League mode, with Ascension being pretty good too, while URF and Hexakill are fairly boring. The RGM queue isn't meant to appeal to everyone every week. If you don't like that week's mode, just don't play it. It's understandable to ask Riot to increase the frequency of modes you like, but claiming that no one likes the other modes is completely ridiculous, especially given the sheer size of League's playerbase.

Furthermore, I don't know what schedule you've been looking at, but Dominion hasn't been available since its retirement as a permanent queue 9 months ago. With the RGM changes, Definitely Not Dominion is vastly different from classic Dominion. It'd be kinda like removing all neutral monsters plus top lane from SR and then claiming that the gameplay experience is still the same.
