I feel bad for Riot atm

Bolwinkel··302 votes·9,333 views

They said at least a month ago that Urf wouldn't be here due to the new Rotating queue yet they still have people crying about it not being here. I'm going to be honest, I don't like the Draven Day stuff that much but I can stand it and wait for Urf to come with rotating queue.

Dude, there is no pleasing them. There are people literally bitching about hextech crafting not giving them enough free skins. What the actual fuck?

There is one thing they are right, though. The fact that you can receive content you already enabled. Not only that, for those who own all the champions, blue essence is useless (unless you plan to save it for the next time they release a champion, but if you own all champions, iyou probably have enough IP to buy the new champion regardless)

Riot, however, has said they will solve both of those issues. Wonder when they are going to do that, though.

Sorry but key drop rate is kinda weird.

rtbf22561824129 votes

It gets gradually slower throughout how much you've played in a month.

elon wątroba9 votes

I know, but not getting a key fragment in about 20 won games is weird, it will be impossible to open all the boxes.

rtbf2256182413 votes

It's aimed at avid players. I know it's rather odd but i guess they don't want you to run out of resources.

I'm sitting at 4 boxes and getting no keys so :D

Because facts don't feel as good as comforting gimme comments.

Because I need a safe space from facts and truth.

CarameI Frappe19 votes

I'm only annoyed at the fact you can hardly get any key drops regardless of your performance. Otherwise Hextech Crafting would be awesome. As of now it feels unhealthy- I mean yea thanks for the free stuff Riot but you made it really hard for me to craft / use anything for the system without spending RP on chest bundles.

Shadowjak1016 votes

You realize it's entirely your choice to spend RP or not? I couldn't care less how many opportunities there are to spend it, it won't make me any more likely to spend. And if these new RP sinks (that don't require you to spend) give free stuff then we've just come out ahead.

I think the issue people are taking with the hextech crafting system is that, given how hard boxes and key shards are to get, it feels like a gimmick to coax money out of players while being wrapped in the guise of free content. Nobody has a problem with skins costing money, but people have a problem with a company saying "here is free stuff!" but instead delivering "here is free stuff... that you can maybe earn eventually, over the space of a season."

Twolaris2 votes

especially when you can already just buy skins. It feels like the mobile game gimmick approach. i've spent some $ on skins, not a ton, but it feels fine knowing im helping rito make a profit for their efforts. Feels a lot less fine when there's a scheme in place.

i could see how someone who might have spent, say $20 on a few skins could easily end up spending $40 within hextech chasing key fragments.

One feels malicious, the other doesn't.

People just want urf for a couple of weeks like riot has done for the past two years... Personally, I couldn't care less about the rotating game mode because, in my opinion, coming out with a gamemode every couple of months and having it be available for a couple of weeks is better than having urf for two days then having to wait for six more months for it to be playable again.

"Modes will likely repeat every 1.5~2 months." Said by L4T3NCY on the post he made regarding the rotating game modes. That being said, one queue a weekend meaning 6-8 game modes. They have tested 2 modes on PBE now in the past 3 weeks so that means they will get through all 6-8 (assuming we keep this pace) by mid May. If we start rotating queues by the first of June that gives us 30 weeks of rotating queue which is 5 or almost 4 rotations (30/6 and 30/8). That is 12-15 days of URF for Friday-Sunday. Congratulations.

Urf represented the event Riot is giving to the community... They removed it people receive this emssage : We dont care about you jsut your money so take this skins and buy these legendary/ultimate for tons of $$$$ and shut up for 2 weeks.

Bolwinkel33 votes

"We don't care about you" yet they are making a rotating game mode queue which has actually been requested more than Urf has been. They have said Urf will be here twice in 2016, They can extend the time of it up to 7 days each making it 14 days in total in 2016 which is probably what will happen with how much everyone loves it. I honestly wish it would've been a one time thing so that something like this wouldn't happen.

Shac Norris10 votes

The only reason that the rotating mode queue would be ''requested more than Urf'' is because people are tired of waiting MONTHS to be able to play a game mode that isn't rage/troll-filled. Not many people are toxic in modes such as URF, at least not nearly as much as ranked or normals.

As for them extending the duration of the game mode, like hell it will be done, it's Riot, don't get your hopes up. Enjoy your stupid Draven day that probably made people quit this game and have fun spending 4 days a year playing URF.

Ok will do. I'll just help people understand when they're confused, hopefully I don't have to explain it to someone who will think I'm calling them stupid because I'm explaining something to them since they were confused.

No, i'm just enjoying fucking with you because I tend to respect people who respect me but the second they show disrespect to me I lose all respect for that person (hey it's the golden rule) and it's difficult for me to respect them again. I was trying to be helpful because you said you were confused and I attempted to explain it to you. You thought I was being rude and decided to return it and just be an ass.

you're the one who said the first comment...and believe it or not, you were an asshole there too, you say you want respect when you don't give it to anyone, you're basically just an entitled fucboy

don't lie and say you give respect, you cower in person, and you think you're god online.

Bolwinkel2 votes

You said that you were confused. I tried to explain to you what I meant so you wouldn't be confused anymore. For some reason you took it the wrong way and thought I was being an ass so you decided it would be a good idea to be an ass as well. You tell me that I "cower in person" and I "think i'm a god online" but how can I be a god? Nobody worships me and I'm not all powerful. Definition of a god: "A superhuman being or spirit worshiped as having power over nature or human fortunes; a deity." I'm not a superhuman, I'm just that person that hides behind a computer monitor thinking I'm a big tough guy, or according to you at least. But what do I know. Welcome to 2016 where people get offended by anything and everything.

Don't forget that they said URF will be back -at least- twice in 2016 and that every gamemode will be in the queue every 1-2 months. If the new queue comes out before say, October, we'll probably get URF at least three times this year. Next year, likely 6 times minimum.

its been 4 months we ahvent had any modes and the alst one was rpetty much arams... So a real mode its been over half a year... You understand why people are mad this morning?

Battlecast Sona13 votes

I understand that people are mad because they EXPECTED something that Riot said EXPLICITLY we wouldn't be getting and they STILL EXPECTED IT.

Riot is not obligated to release URF just because it's April Fools. They've never said anything to the effect. So the only logical reason for being mad this morning is because you're an entitled child.

Dirty Metaslave4 votes

You honestly defend RIOT? I mean what did they expect to happen, when they cancel one of the most beloved gamemodes and instead just publish some new skins and rip off a 3-year old player made mod. Gosh, you really dont need to feel bad for them, they will just grab a lot of money with the skins and leave some part of their fanbase with a huge disappointment. And do you want know what I think the sad thing is about this? That RIOT knows that nearly noone would quit Leauge over something like this and all the hate on Reddit will be forgotten in a week, so they just were like : "hey, lets make some money and fck our fans over, they wont be able to do anything anyway". Just makes me feel really bad. But maybe thats what happens when a game gets bigger and more commercialized. #feelsbadman

Battlecast Sona18 votes

They didn't CANCEL ANYTHING.

YOU ARE NOT ENTITLED TO URF JUST BECAUSE IT'S APRIL.

RIOT ANNOUNCED A MONTH AGO THAT WE WOULDN'T BE GETTING URF.

cancelled: to stop doing or planning to do (something) : to decide that something (such as a game, performance, etc.) will not happen

In order to CANCEL something, Riot has to first announce it. AND SINCE THEY NEVER DID (in fact doing EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE), URF wasn't "cancelled".

If you're so sick of Riot's money grabbing gtfo and go play another game, because -I'm- sick of people like you acting like they should not only make this game for free but make it exactly to all the entitled little brats' specifications. I'm GLAD we didn't get URF this year, maybe some of the toxic garbage that thinks it makes sense to shit-talk a company endlessly while still playing their game (and calling it crap and insulting the balance and throwing a fit every single time something isn't released the way you want) will quit and I can have 1 less person telling me to get cancer because I got ganked.

The ironic thing is the only time any of the vitriol on these forums would actually be warranted would be if THIS WASN'T A FREE GAME.

Dirty Metaslave8 votes

Calm down dude. The only thing ironic here is that you`re complaining about being toxic while being toxic yourself. And mate, they say on their website that this game is free2play, so yeah, i expect them to make this game for free. And wtf is that argument: "If you're so sick of Riot's money grabbing gtfo and go play another game, because -I'm- sick of people like you acting like they should not only make this game for free but make it exactly to all the entitled little brats' specifications. I'm GLAD we didn't get URF this year, maybe some of the toxic garbage that thinks it makes sense to shit-talk a company endlessly while still playing their game (and calling it crap and insulting the balance and throwing a fit every single time something isn't released the way you want) will quit and I can have 1 less person telling me to get cancer because I got ganked." So if i think a company did something wrong with a product i use daily and did spend quite some money on, i should just stop using that product, instead of adressing the problem? Man start thinking before talking!

pbe just updated, the dreaded draven thing is over, ascension is the mode in there atm....poro king was there few days ago. whether you like it or not, urf is coming.....probably today.....solely if they put urf in pbe, someone will let the cat out of the bag.

But you didn't pay for anything in the game to help with gameplay itself lol. The only things in the game that you pay money for that affect gameplay are the xp and ip boosts. Everything else is aesthetic.

The only problem here is the toxicity of the community because Riot announced the change a month ago and people are still rioting for absolutely no reason other than being spoiled brats who think they are entitled to URF. Sorry not sorry.

For goodness sake, URF isn't even cancelled. It's just now in the system of rotating game modes twice a year! Can you stop being spoiled and entitled and look at how ridiculous you sound?
