It looks tacky

It's inconsistent (Who left the lobby? Who dc'd?)

It was a change nobody really asked for but it wasn't even a change for the better.

edit: highlighted usernames* dang it

One time as soon as I entered, the text was darkened gray, so it looked like everybody already left including me.

If I need color-coded names to tell who was on my team and who wasn't I probably have bigger issues.

"Who left and who dc'ed" not who is on his team and who isn't. Red used to indicate DC, now it indicates enemy team?

I think it's supposed to. It's pretty bugged, so sometimes yes, sometimes no. I believe gray is now DCed.

Sometimes their all grey sometimes they blue and red, they never show whose leaving, and the red makes it hard to spot afks, the old system looked fine.

What's up with some names being red and blue for each team? Sometimes a few names on one side will be blue, and a couple on the other side will be red.

They can't hotfix it.

Hotfixes can only be applied to server-side systems - that is, the actual game logic as it runs on their servers. A change to the client has to be done through a full patch cycle that updates your local executable.

Have you ever had league show a patching bar for like 5-15 seconds when there hasn't been an actual patch? That's them putting out hotfix changes to your local executable. They can do it

Gavran1 votes

Hotfix has a real meaning and that's not within it. Though that's entirely unimportant semantics, it's clear OP just means "don't make us wait for the next content / balance patch."

On the other hand, Krinu is right that companies don't like to push out whole patches (and this would be one) for little things like this. There's a whole process.

I wasn't sure how many other people noticed this too!

The moral here kids is if it's not broken, don't fix it.

Yea what the heck is that?

I think you overestimate what a hotfix is capable of. Pretty sure they are server side only which is why tooltips and stuff don't actually get changed until the next patch lol.

Agree. It is all messed up now.

Funny thing is it was already this way on PBE and they still put it live.

I donr even see the point in it, and why change something when it perfectly fine... I already know who's on the enemy team post game because it clearly states it. This as an uneeded feature that they could have put into something else even though it probably took 2 minutes

I don't really think there was anything wrong with adding a bit of color to the after screen for looks.

Vecturn1 votes

Is this for the color blind people? After 6 years? Did we just witness the average wait time for when Riot responds to user requests?

Phuc Dat Bich1 votes

all names now are Greys (but the one time that the bug didnt happen the colors have change now (The enemy names are red and your name are green or blue i dont recall now) but the 99 time they apear all grey which need to be fixed

t0ad51 votes

Riot and fix don't really belong together.

Xonra1 votes

Yeah, it looks pretty bad. I don't really see the point.

I mean seriously, what is the point? As if you don't know by the end of the game if you are red or blue side. To think someone got paid, and spent time on doing this.

Magicsparkle1 votes

Rito pls fix it.

Kaeblen1 votes

there is absolutely zero coorelation between which names are highlighted and who is actually present in the post game lobby.

Xosra1 votes

Keep looking gray for me with a few random team highlighted names.
