The legendary ban threads will never be forgotten~

Doubt it'll be any time soon, given that it took them over five years to make their own replay system.

We shouldn't pressure them. They are just a small indie company

Sadly it is more, we shouldn't pressure them because they've all become super sensitive and think we are being assholes any time we bring something up these days. I miss the days of them bantering with us instead of flat out calling us trolls and people saying they aren't gonna talk on social media cause we hurt their feelings.

What?

Xonra2 votes

That is why most of them don't talk. The art Lead IronStylus a few years back posted saying we basically hurt his feelings or were too mean or some such (Despite being one of the most loved Rioters posting constantly at the time, and was constantly bombarded with positive vibes quite frankly). Ghost Crawler basically thinks everyone on any forum are just a-holes and refuses to post anywhere but his own personal twitter 99% of the time or his "ask" thing.

Multiple Rioters over the years have done similar things, because they have very thin skin to criticism, even if it is one bad thing to 90 good things (like with IronStylus who people all but sucked up to back in the day). His last board post was over 2 years ago.

As xonra said, they've often avoided replying because they've grown into a more fragile mindset despite becoming a more powerful company; a few of them have even admitted to using sources other than their own forums for feedback, redit being a prime example. In turn it's created a rift of egos between the players young, old, and the developers; us older players remember when they changed the game to be fun and balanced and let that grow the player base, when they got obsessed with being an esport the newer players followed suit wanting spectacle instead of good gameplay, meanwhile riot has taken on an 'Im right and you have to deal with it' attitude. Hence why you'll see some people criticize intelligently though harshly, one of those tough love trying to remind them what they used to stand for kind of things; also they got bought out by tenecent or something years ago, so it's not too clear who pulls what strings anymore either.

AFTER the "it will be soon." and multiple failed versions popping up on the PBE

Agreed, given that most everything except the map is a 3d model, shouldn't be difficult to spin the camera 180 degrees.

I'm glad you screen shot it. I would hate to "misquote" a rioter.

For funsys, why don't you try adding him on steam and ask if it will still come.

I thought they already did this a while ago. Isn't it under options? It's the camera off side and per side options.

Not sure why people down voted you lol. But they gave different angles you can use for presets but, it's still not exactly the same.

GigglesO3 votes

Those aren't different angles, those are different offsets. That means when you press the space bar or lock the camera you will be slightly off center for your screen. It has nothing to do with angles.

Xonra2 votes

They downvoted because he was wrong?

"a few different angles" isn't nearly the same thing.

It is better to not listen to anything Riot promises lol

There are quite a few amusing instances of "promises" from the old boards that are still in limbo. Hell the "replay" system was "coming pretty soon" in what, 2011? It didn't happen for how many years?

Honestly I think at this point they intentionally leave it like this to balance out the counterpick advantage red side has.
