Remake Games Should Refund RP From Skin Boost

Seriously, it's not fair to anyone to pay to use a skin for only 3 minutes.

They should also refund your autofill protection--it sucks when you put in your autofill game, then get a remake and lose one of the protected games.

It is nice though when you get autofilled and the game turns out to be a remake anyways.

This is a known pain point.

You only get them when dodging. If the game has actually started there's really nothing that can be done, it's been spent.

I take it you are a developer at Riot?

Flawless FetusApr 8, 20177 votes

There's actually something that can be done. Refunding. Hence the post. Lol.

SailorPsychoApr 8, 20176 votes

Nope. He's right. You've already entered the match, thus it's spent. They can't give it back once you're in the match. Plus if you've ever read any of their dev blogs you'd see that their content is meant to be permanent, so it is.

So... they added a feature that allows you to use a skin for a game... and you're saying that if the game gets cancelled, they should not refund the rp you spent for the temporary skins, right? I have to ask... if someone dodges after someone buys a skin boost, should the buyer be refunded? I believe that's currently the case, but it sounds like you don't like that idea. Lol.

Yeah. You did, and that's you're own fault. It's a risk you are taking. There's an easy solution and that's to not waste money on TEMPORARY cosmetics. If you want a skin get it permanently.

No one is going to own every skin for every champion unless they're pretty damn wealthy. It's a random selection, what if you get a champion that you don't use often and have no skins for it?

I have plenty of champions I hardly use and own almost all of their skins.. what's your point? LOL.

612 owned skins and counting :)

Okay, well if you want to waste money on shit you never use that's your own choice. Not everyone is wasteful with their money.

BB so mad :)

SailorPsychoApr 11, 20174 votes

You're the ones already wasting it on TEMPORARY SKINS. Who the hell thinks that is a GOOD way to spend something? LOL.

Flawless FetusApr 11, 20175 votes

I did what? Lol. I've never bought a skin boost. I'm just wondering if you are triggered by the fact that the purchase gets refunded if someone dodges in lobby. Lol.

SailorPsychoApr 11, 20175 votes

If you've never bought them why the hell come to the discussion? "triggered"... stupid internet term, try speaking proper English maybe people will care.

It's only meant to refund in lobby if there's a dodge, if you're in game it's already been spent. End of the story.

Flawless FetusApr 11, 20175 votes

? Because it is a pretty clear cut discussion. They should be refunded. If someone says "rape is bad", I can agree with that even thought I've never been raped, right? Lol.

DemainaNyxApr 8, 20175 votes

Yeah, that's kinda dumb if it doesn't.

Mr DallowayApr 8, 20175 votes

Pretty sure it is in all weekend games modes as well as ARAM. I would open a ticket if you don't get a refund when there is a /remake. I opened a ticket once when I thought I didn't get a refund in an ARAM dodge. It turned out I was wrong but they did have the capability to look into it.

junglerboy16Apr 8, 20173 votes

Dodges are different from remakes though, and refund everything from rerolls to skin boosts, remakes don't.

KüramaApr 9, 20171 votes

Battle Boosts are only available in Random game modes and currently there're only 3 of those (ARAM, ARSR & ARURF).

Flawless FetusApr 8, 20175 votes

I don't play ARAMs, but the fact that they aren't refunded is ludicrous.

You can avoid this by not wasting money on temporary, one-game-only money sinks.

Synnx7Apr 8, 20173 votes

Riot are too incompetent to even think about this in the first place. Or their refund policy is taken to an extreme

Riot's too incompetent, lol. You're right, they just have completely no idea what they are doing... lol Draven

Well , I play their garbage game since the beginning of season 2. I know pretty well how incompetent they are and its not hard to see. It's pretty fucking obvious since S7 release till now. Hell even S6 Lots and lots of questionable patches, champ favoritism , and this new fucking client which is a fucking downgrade even

I want my animation gauge moving back when i lvl up a champ after a match

And I want my animation back after crafting a Mastery 6 or Mastery 7 level on a champion...

Do you regularly play good games for 5+ years straight, or just the garbage ones?

Yeah. Wow WOTLK p-server ( pretty garbage as well since u can pay 150$ and get donormourne) , Overwatch, Cs-go , HoTs , and some half life from time to time

FegoneApr 8, 20173 votes

I wasn't even aware that this issue exists, I had assumed automatically it would be refunded by default if there's a remake. Just like you're not losing LP and not gaining IP. It surprises me extremely that Riot hasn't set this to be the default anyways.
