Can you at the very least intergrate a voice chat IN CLIENT so I can verbally communicate with the 4 man squad of besties i got queued with because you hate us so fucking much?
Even better. why not just delete ranked if you're alone since it means nothing, and people like me who JUST WANT TO GET BACK TO SILVER can be given an official giant middle finger and go on about my day with another product?
I always play solo in ranked. Only played with someone once and that was just cause they begged me too. I hated old ranked draft queue. Never knew what role I'd get and I would normally be stuck with a role I absolutely hate or just wasn't as good at (can play every role...don't enjoy playing every role).
Riot isn't ruining anyone's playing experience. It's how you handle the games. I have been playing much more ranked this year then last because of the new queue (still playing solo) and have had only one bad experience but someone dodged in champ select anyways. In game has been nothing bad
GET FRIENDS THEN
Well, I personally don't mind dynamic queue.
Most of my games I play solo or with my duo, very rarely do I take advantage and have a third or fourth BUT I like the option to have that. Some games you really find a good mend with a jungler or top laner etc, I really like having the ability to invite them to the next game and keep playing with them without worrying about having a full 5 man or shit like that.
Again, yes most of my games are played solo but I understand that if there is a fully solo queue created it would completely ruin Dynamic and the queue times would be even more outrageous than they already are.
So far I've only had 1 bad experience with being the solo matched with a 4 man premade, it wasn't even a toxic experience, they all just played terribly and that was it.
Sometimes it can all be in delivery and perspective. When I see the matching club tags in champ select I always seem like I want to be as helpful to them as possible and I ask that they don't forget I'm not in chat and to still ping lots for me. So far that works best
Season5 ranked was worlds better. no more than duo was allowed and the champ select was better. Pick order was fine now that I think of it, dyanmic queue forcing you to either pick 2 roles or support isn't good enough. as a solo player who likes getting a random role, this ranked is not for me..
An in game voice client would be horrible i don't wanna live the Era of toxic Xbox kids over again i would just mute everyone voice or writen chat. the only idea that has merit is deleting the ranked queue since its absolutly mean nothing right now, my irl friends who brag about thier rank don't wanna talk league with me because i destroy every single argument and tell them that in reallity they would be bronze without the DynamicQ and they know its true because thats what they were and never climbed out of it before the DQ happened so i laugh hard at them everyday. AMEN
For complaining about the soloQ experience, you haven't been playing solo. You've been playing with multiple people recently. Irony.
I'll admit thou, it'd be nice if we didn't have to use a third part program like Skype or Discord.
Okay but see here's the thing, I'm bronze trying to get back to silver and beyond, and I'm doing fine. I haven't really faced any premades besides the occasional duo that's on both sides.
Nope because toxic. I mean we could just let people deal with toxicity with a click of a mute button, but no, we have to let combating toxicity get in the way of the most basic, yet game changing features like voice chat and sandbox mode.
If you are having troubles getting back to silver after the reset still you don't really deserve to be there. Honestly I've climbed from bronze 5 to 2 solo and only recently started asking friends to help me just to make it more efficient.
A voice chat system would only be detrimental to this game. Many people are already toxic enough in chat, but uh... I really don't want those people to have a voice too. The risks just outweigh what the rewards would be to me.
I dunno if they make a true solo que that might hurt all the $ people have invested into elo boosting. Wouldn't want to offend the masses now..
OH GOD PLEASE NO PLEASE NOOOO
I hope it never comes to this. PLEASE I cant imagine the amount of 10-year-olds I'll have to hear. Forgive me but i prefer it to not go that far.
"But it would promote toxicity so we can't have it."
Never mind that mute and report buttons still exist. Never mind that both people you play with and people you play against already have verbal communication via third-party programs.
Ranked is a joke now. It's get boosted play with high ranking friends if you have some - and if you don't, well good fucking luck.
Idea 1 has merit. An In Client Voice would be good.
yeah the last thing i need is a date with mr. I CBA to play with a headset, mr. I CBA to figure out how to broadcast good audio, mr. I have crapstep in the background, and mr. I yell my heart out every time I make a missplay.
Teamspeak groups sort out their shit before the game; Pug voice calls? not so much. Built in voice comm in other games boils down to a cacophony of badly tuned shouting from people who don't know how to configure their microphones properly (hint: don't use a microphone on standing on your table, don't use your webcam, get a headset), or don't care to do so.
I'd love to know what plans Riot has to make ranked more enjoyable for the solo players. They specifically said in the last "Riot Pls" post that this is something they're looking into addressing, but gave no info.
I get not liking the new experience and wanting Solo Q back. But that is not the reason you cannot get back to silver. If you belong in silver, you'll get there, nothing to do with DQ, thats like an Elo Hell excuse
I will boost you to silver, just to prove that the system is abusable. Hell if you have three other bronze friends I will help them too.
