wow ornn definitely wasnt rushed through production and was thoroughly tested

You misunderstand how bugs come up. When Riot adds in new data, be it numbers, skins, or events, they're adding in things to the code of the game. Bugs appear normally due to a conflict of new and old data. When you patch the content from PBE into Live, you have old content being introduced with new content.

Because of that, Bugs can appear that weren't on PBE at all. It's why they have a 3 day period for accepting new things into PBE, because they need enough time to not let any known bugs in PBE move into the Live as well. However, that doesn't mean they can catch them all, or all bugs were ever on PBE.

So unless you can show me a source of Mordekaisers or Mac users on PBE crashing due to Orrn, I'm prime to believe that the bug was introduced when the patch hit live.

They never played a game with a mordekaiser or with a mac? Seems like basic testing to test all fixed variables before releasing anything.

Personal note: My dad is a VP at a major bank and specializes in IT. Currently they're upgrading systems to windows 10, they've been testing for almost a year to make sure to make sure it works on all systems, making sure everything is stable, BEFORE they release it.

Game development is obviously a different thing, but it's same conceptually for testing and releasing. For christ's sake, how did it get past PBE? Clearly wasn't on PBE long enough to find MAJOR shit like a whole OS not working on it and a champion can drop a game. These arent like tiny bugs, these are fucking gamebreaking.

Riot is such a braindead company it's insane how incompetent they are in so many departments. They have as many players as they do because the game itself is good, or atleast was. It's a simplified copy-cat of a different top-selling game. PUBG vs H1Z1 vs ARMA 3 Battle Royale, exact same thing.

Nobody gives a shit about morde except Malicious Metal and his fanboys, almost nobody plays him and people only join the pbe to test a skin or to play the new champion, almost nobody goes there to actually help riot.

Listen here m9, they're called bugs for a reason. They don't always show up and sometimes only occur after the product has been shipped to live. In comparison to many other games, Riot does a good job of catching bugs in time for their releases to hit live. Obviously they're not going to catch everything, but that's literally how it is. There is never a time when they can get ALL bugs regardless of severity on the test servers because newsflash it's up to the player base to actually report about them. And the playerbase is hot garbage when it comes to this, it's much better to just ship it to live and take care of bugs as they pop because it's far easier to monitor on live.

An example of this months back when Hi-Rez let the Morrigan loose on the live severs in Smite. Simply having her in game caused so many crashes, spaghetti interactions and downright game breaking phenomena that you'd be baffled at how she got past the test servers. The reason why? Literally all the game bugs that showed didn't appear on the test servers or weren't reported by the player base.

So please, instead of coming on here and spewing nonsense about this and that because x game did y, I think you should spend some time actually looking into how bugs can manifest.

I don't think you understand just how hard it is to test every single variable and every single angle of stuff like that. Each patch you see minor stuff fixed all of the time because stuff just comes up all the time or go undiscovered for so long.
