I'm so sick of the game going down for "emergency" maintenance

Final Remnant ··6 votes·2,451 views

Come on Riot every time I try to login the servers are down because you have to fix something. I am glad that at least you are fixing issues but good lord I want to play League and I can't do that if the servers are down for hours and hours on end. I know you say it will be up in like an hour but that usually means it could be 5-6 hours before it's finished.

At least this is during the preseason is all I can say.

In their defence, the preceding 3ish hours I didn't want to play (despite 'wanting to play') because of lag and responsiveness being kinda sketchy and not wanting to risk dcing. At least after maintenance is completed I have reason to believe things are all fresh and good to go.

How can you possibly say that? Every time Riot releases something or after maintenance, something else breaks. This company cannot do anything right related to customer service and server stability. They fix one thing and break another. It's an endless cycle.

I like to think things are at least ok from the point of completed maintenance until the next patch. It might be an endless cycle, but there are windows when the game works perfectly (at least with the champs and builds I use). Just before this downtime was not that window, so advancing through the cycle to maybe get closer to such a window is desirable to me.

What do you expect they launched a whole new patch cut them some fucking slack.

If only the patch had anything to do with this. But it doesn't.

It is the most played PC game in the world. Think they are doing something right?

The idea of the game has nothing to do with the structure of the game. If Riot Games had a maintenance trend like the current cycle, I would leave the community.

Riot's actually a very responsive company with regards to customer service. It's run by people who clearly have a passion for gaming.

Blizzard seems like it's a company run by people who just do it because it's their job. Riot's a far better company.

Riot is a good company, but the recent maintenance is annoying. I disagree with you on Blizzard, however. It may take longer, but Blizzard is a responsive company. The trailers are still the best part though =]

SamuraiHeart's desire to play league is more important than them fixing the servers. That is what I got out of your post.

At least they're trying to fix it... I can't imagine if they Zed they'd fix it and didn't... They might not keep the game 100% perfect all the time, but keep in mind that THE GAME IS FREE. Yes people are buying skins but how often do you buy one? You can't really compare it to blizzard where you have to purchase the updates and on top of that, pay for monthly membership. Blizzard just has more resources at their disposal.

I am not a Riot apologist by any means, but things have actually been relatively stable in the last few weeks. Yeah, the servers were down pretty much all of Wednesday, but you all are acting as if they shut the servers down just to fuck with you and ruin your fun. Now if they had left the servers up and continued to have disruptions of game play then that doesn't do anyone any good either. Maintenance needs to be done from time to time, it's just going to happen because things can't always operate perfectly. They wouldn't do this unless it were warranted because it makes no sense to do something which will trigger a bunch of mouthbreathers crying on the boards.

I don't understand you people. This is pre-season. This is when this is SUPPOSED to happen. Would you rather it happen during regular season? No? Then stop whining. They set aside this time to release new content so that they can fix it without any serious effect on ranked standings.
