maybe i dont play lol anymore ... but ill tell you one thing this game literaly NEEDS to improve

Knight SoIaire ··1 votes·689 views

the reliance on low ping (the thing that actualy made me quit the game) during my glorious 5 years with the game i actually went from a really good internet connection to a really bad one

i assume that most of you already know about a certain chart which shows the average ping of people in certain ranks

the truth is that in this game ping = elo (old fashioned term) and this is a competitive game ... this shouldn't be allowed on such a big scale

and as a guy who managed to be in both worlds ... the difference is monstrous ... the overall responsiveness of the game is much better when you have 40ms less

So how can game improve your internet connection?

it certainly cant ... thou your reading could use a bit of polishing

the game uses resources ... and the amount of resources uses is what the creators can work with

if a game uses little resources then the difference betwen playing it on a weaker system/internet connection and a good one is smaller

"your reading could use a bit of polishing". Same sentence: "cant" and "thou", and never any periods. Yeah.... And the ping is already something they're trying to improve. I'd think someone who didn't play LoL anymore wouldn't care, either.

Then get an adequate internet connection? What multiplayer game isn't garbage if you have an inadequate internet connection, online chess?

Riot's already gone way beyond any other company to reduce the ping of their players with the POP system they implemented earlier this year for NA. Maybe that same approach could be brought over to the EU, but not positive since I don't know how the telecoms operate over there.

I mean they did just do a server move that dropped the average ping from 96 to 43

my 80 ms ping is holding me back from diamond.

Maybe I'm not even bronze, but if I can farm with 269 ms I bet you can do it without any issues.
