Why is the PBE still down?

ItalianPotatoe··7 votes·559 views

The PBE has been down well over 4 months. I don't understand whats taking so long for the new website to be released. I really would like to go on the PBE and test new coming champions, and buffs... etc. But I can't because I have to apply. But I can't apply until the site comes up. If a helpful riot staff could clear up for how long it been taking that would be great.

Cheers

PBE is fine, you probably need to renew your PBE account. Riot rotates out accounts to get different testers, so once every so often you need to re-apply to stay on the PBE.

I don't know how often you need to re-apply, I just know it's a thing.

He means sign ups. They're down while Riot revamps the signup system

To add to this, they probably don't need extra testers. The servers still struggle to support the influx of players that show up to test new champions and reworks.

Yeah, i just really want to test some of the new things before they get added. I find it very unfortunate that im still not able to join the PBE when been playing for almost 2 years now...

probably cause half of the testers are never rotated off the PBE

I say they need better servers. Rotating testers won't make much of a difference if it still can't handle the population they have registered.

we seriously need more people joining the pbe, right now it takes around 7 to 10 mins when lots of people are on

while on days where not so many people are playing it can take up to an hour usually

its getting annoying cause i cant play pbe ever
