There are more people simultaneously playing league than any other game in the world. That makes league one of the most technically demanding games ever, with unprecedented problems dealing with the sheer mass of real time data needing to be digested by players all around the world. Take a moment and appreciate the free to play game for the marvel that it is. Maybe watch this video and quit complaining #kappa http://www.cc.com/video-clips/1myllo/stand-up-louis-ck--the-miracle-of-flight

maybe #bf4 #WoW #you really think league is number 1? runescape in its prime ran 200+ servers averaging 1.5k-2k(its max) players per server EVERY hour of the day. it has over 2.7 MILLION interactive AI's running per server and all this was done for a little under 4.7 million dollors. trust me i know ;) now how much do you think league makes per year? hint hint more then double runescapes entire budget for 2004

GundayMondayNov 4, 20142 votes

200 servers * 2k = ~400,000 players. That's not even in the same order of magnitude as League of Legend's 27 million daily players (probably more now). (Source: http://www.forbes.com/sites/insertcoin/2014/01/27/riots-league-of-legends-reveals-astonishing-27-million-daily-players-67-million-monthly/)

And 2.7 million interactive AI's are a lot easier to account for than 27 million players with distinct regional and technical connection variability and in game behaviors.

Check your facts before you get all snarky with bad info :-)

The largest free MMORPG by userbase is the browser-based fantasy title RuneScape (Jagex, 2001) which has 175,365,991 registered users as of November 23 2010.

you were saying?

GundayMondayNov 7, 20141 votes

Looks like League is a world record class video game. Registered users is not the same as active players, league probably has more than Runescape. Willing to bet you a mystery gift if you want to put your money where your mouth is :3

My point still stands, stop complaining about this technical marvel on the forums, while Riot solves problems that don't exist for anyone else in the universe, and check your facts before you whine for no reason. Have a nice night sir!

ADC fireflyNov 11, 20141 votes

so 3000 people is "solves problems that don't exist for anyone else in the universe"

guess 3000 people don't count in this universe. i just ask they fix where people in series don't get a loss when everyone else gets forgiven. i would be g3 instead of g4 right now if this didn't occur. had 1 win 1 lose and we were winning the match. idk who stayed logged in to make it a lose or if it was because we all d'ced it counted it as a lose. its a glitch in the programming that can be easily fixed.

now as for the argument of games. how many do you think are on WoW right now? how about battle field? Halo? MINECRAFT?

league is one of hundreds of MMO's and has no excuse for dropping in services, just like people get mad when PlayStation's server went down. we as customers reserve the right to complain for lack of quality product delivery. dont agree with being able to voice your complaints? move to Russia Caitlyn good day

p.s. quick edit, looked it up http://blogs.wsj.com/digits/2014/01/27/player-tally-for-league-of-legends-surges/

27 million, give me my gift :P runescape well out numbers total users.

GundayMondayNov 11, 20141 votes

Awwww, that's too bad it was your promo. At least it wasn't anything important like silver->gold or plat->diamond. Should take you 4 maybe 5 games to get back up there. Good luck!

You should read your own link though, League has WAY more active players than any game you listed. They're solving tech problems that don't exist for other companies. Battlefield, Halo, and Minecraft aren't even in the same league as league.

P.S. So do you want to make that mystery skin bet? 27 million active players at the start of 2014 is a little different than the number of registered players they have now. I'm still willing to bet riot has the record. I'll use whatever numbers they release in their post S4 championship press release for registered players. Take the bet?

Seriously this is getting out of hand I thought the new patcher and update was suppose to help prevent this. I understand there are still buts and everything but with the money we put into this you would think there is a better handle on the servers

Exactly they are on the verge of being the first free to play billion dollar company

ADC fireflyNov 11, 20141 votes

they earned $627 million in 2010. they spent 1.7 million on servers that year.

I finished the game... then got kicked... But I was on my bronze account playing casually so... yay bronze I. Good thing I wasn't on my Silver account...cause then I'd be mad... GRIND TO GOLD FOR MORG SKIN! Morgana

Yeah I got kicked also says i'm 1st in que, but have to wait an hr QQ

Lots of people DCed from my game and couldn't reconnect...cant tell if loss forgiven or not.

ADC fireflyOct 30, 20141 votes

it was, but if you so happened to be in a series, loss forgive doesnt do anything for you.... you'd think league would figure that one out.... although it kinda makes sense because if i wanted a perfect kda and win/loss id just smerf attack the server every time i looked like i was going to lose 0.o

TrinityunicornOct 28, 20142 votes

I didn't get kicked but I did try to login and it told me I had a corrupt file which it fixed. So then I COULD NOT log in. After about 3-5 tries I finally got a connection to the server and was told it would be 20 mins before I could log due to large numbers. I get that large numbers screen alot more often these days.

ButterflyNachozOct 28, 20142 votes

I had this issue, too, I was kicked right after a match and on logging back in it said I was either number 2000 or 3000 to be logged in with an esitmate time of half an hour And you would think with so many people playing they'd try to improve it, it can't be from lack of funding with so many people buying rp for skins

I'm simply going to point out that 9 times out of 10, this "perpetual lag" problem is usually with the IPS's of the users and not entirely Riot. I used to get lag ALOT with my old ISP and I blamed the Riot servers. I switched providers and I have had, literally, 0 issues outside of global Riot server dilemmas such as DOS attacks, Downtime, and the occasional server fails.

ADC fireflyOct 30, 20141 votes

i run at 197mbps down, 12.9mbps down, anyone who knows computers knows thats more then enough for 2,000 ports to tx/rx a league match all at the same time. the only limiter i have is my ram is only 4gb ddr3

i lagg almost EVERY game i play due to my 214-360 ping to the nearest league hub. now league started in the U.S. but for some resin we have some one the worst ping times out of ALL regions only 2nd to eow who have an average 3 of 5 players suffering from lagg per game. google my stats of my computer if you dont know what up and down mean. just know i can run loops around most undedicated lines all day :P have to love tunnles xD summoner 6

Sara LeahNov 11, 20141 votes

I can say that the blamers of Comcast are wrong as Comcast has only gave me good service.

the random lag spikes and dcs I get from league are only in league as terra online and several other games give me none of this.

hopefully at seasons end they will fix this as they promised.
