The only way to make Riot listen

ClatoVerataNicto·Apr 16, 2016·4 votes·454 views

We have to stop playing.

If everyone stops playing. Together. For 1 week. We'll be heard.

Stop playing for SoloQ. Stop playing because DynamicQ is busted. Stop playing for mages. Stop playing for balance. Stop playing for unhealthy assassins. Any other reason. Just stop.

As a player base, if we are unhappy. Stop playing.

From 4/23 to 4/30 make the game servers as empty as possible. Log on to chat, but nothing more. Tell your friends and have them tell theirs. If as a player base we are truly unsatisfied with the game, no other option can send as powerful a message. Never have I seen this much dissension before.

Show Riot how much you care.

This is the player base: https://wallpaperscraft.com/image/ocean_island_arch_horseshoe_land_from_above_62299_3840x2400.jpg

This is the people that don't like Dynamic Queue: http://www.padreperegrino.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/From-Skitch1.jpg

That's funny. I don't know anyone that likes it.

And if you like it so much how come you've only played 2 ranked games this season?

ModWulf HelhammerApr 16, 20161 votes

Because I don't play ranked, at least not yet. I don't feel confident enough in my abilities to risk being a drag on my team, so I'm holding out on ranked until I feel ready.

If the only place you are getting info that people don't like dynamic queue is places like the boards and reddit, then I have news for you: those people are even less than that grain of sand (and not even the entire population of those places are agreed). Here's the thing. People that enjoy something tend to not take the time to go make a post about it, as they are expressing their favor in the easiest and most enjoyable (to them) way possible: playing the queue.

Then you can't accurately speak on the situation.

I somehow can't understand statistics because I don't use a particular gamemode? I left my person opinions on the matter out of the discussion (which I admit I cannot say anything with certainty on because I don't play ranked games), simply relying on the fact that the majority of people really have no problem with the queue. Care to tell me where you are going to get the numbers large enough to actually cause a blip in the server population?

Op does not have 20 ranked games on the account he posted on. Don't take it to heart to much.

Hi i play ranked alot, in fact have been playing from season 1. Does this lend me the right to speak up?

I have no reason to dislike dynamic Q. Not one reason that I like it or dislike it more than a pure Solo Q. I don't see an issue with it.

I do like your attitude though. The only way to make a business see what it's customers want is to deny it attention. However, that doesn't mean that things will change, but a good peaceful protest is good.

Or just post in the dev corner http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/developer-corner/d2f7wbht-welcome-to-the-dev-corner-an-introduction ?

Problem is that No one really agrees on what they are unhappy about. currently ASSASSINS OP, TANKS OP, ADC OP. Dynamic groups on my team always bad, Dynamics on enemy team 2 GOOD, BOOSTERS. Plus going from what i see banned frequently MasterYi XinZhao Shyvana Junglers with Devo/gunblade still OP... thou thankfully that's not plastered all over the boards at the moment. Also, people really should just wait for mages, 16 up for reworks and the adc reworks did base number changes, the juggernaut one did lots of base number changes for armor. Just wait a bit folks, by all means once it hits pbe or is leaked go ham.
