The New Client Is No Longer, "Better"
When league first started up online in 2009, their game was relatively small and simple, which many people liked because just like many games that were enjoyable, they were compact, constantly adding material that were also just as simple to obtain and had a light workload for the computer. Now almost 10 years in, the developers have smoothed out and finalized many of their products. At the same time, these same products were "changed" due to their moto. And believe it or not, it has been for the better in many cases. Though, that is also where heavy problems arise.
For example, ever since the New Client has come about, it kept on receiving many, many, MANY add-ons that just about makes it look just as cluttered as the last client did, but that isn't the point being made here. As we already know, the client itself still requires a lot of tweaks. Which in the mean time, makes it unacceptable/inaccessible to many "older" computers. "That still makes no sense, what do you mean by unacceptable or inaccessible to older computers?" Well I'm glad you asked. As a Techie myself, League in the past used to be superb with computers that had the maximum of about 2 Gigabytes of RAM, a dual core CPU near 2 GHz, onboard graphics, and used under 1 GB of space on your hard drive. That's right, a computer built under the 32-bit specifications worked with old league.
As technology advances, so does league, but that doesn't entail everyone also buying the next generation of the oldest computer model, unless it's supported model officially goes out. In fact, many today have a computer working and ranging with, windows 7, 32-bit (64x biased processor), to fix exceeding the 4+ Gigs RAM issue)) or 64-bit to windows 10. Every one of these models just about range to or exceed 4 gigs of RAM, and the basic "DualCore" edition (wish also means that their hard drive and onboard graphics as been increased as well.) Though, these same consoles barely keep up with league. Which yes, should be expected with older computers, but not by a land slide or 65%+. In fact, many have bought a GPU (graphics card) onto their system. … And they still have issues.
With this new client, it uses up a lot of resources. In fact, I believe it accounts for at least 30% of League's dodges and or, not being able to click" accept" in the queues... And they get punished for it. Even if they were to get past all of the "are you alive" status, you still have the option of almost never having the right rune pages or summoner items for that matter. It is almost like "taking an arrow to the knee." Oh, but I have a fix to the issue. What is that you may ask? First off, after you have all the champions declared on both sides, constantly have a 2 minuet timer before the game starts. Secondly and finally, Wipe the client anew, instead of adding additional "useless" things onto the client URL link the extras and make it look like an icon to understand like: everything residing inside the Home tab. Everything bought on the client, RP and BE will be used on league's webpage instead of the client for store buys. Or how about getting rid of a couple multiple pathing? Examples like, the choice of which summoner icon to use (where you can see and change it at) or Where your chromas reside within each skin, let alone how you advertise the skin? Look, all I am saying is that the client is cluttered and you can fix it with simple modifications. After all, what was most great about league was how you didn't have to own a great system to play DOTA. (ha ha ha, I'm kidding!) All jokes aside though, people's computer systems are something serious to consider.
Even though it may be copying some things, it is best deemed to be more efficient on the matter of computer resource consumption and not all the time does the "low specs" option work and most of the time the dedicated repair tool will not fix the issue. So the next time you update, it may end up being just a matter of if you can even queue up, click that accept button, choose your ban, and declaring your champion. All of which is very beefy.
On a side note, I would love to help in any way I possibly can. Resource manipulation is definitely my specialty. -Sincerely, Haz
