4K Resolution, Tiny Cursor

Bunny Bells·2/4/2018, 9:39:56 PM·8 votes·9,142 views

The cursor on 4k resolution is impossibly small. It's already difficult to keep up with on regular resolution, but at 4k, it's like 25% the size it normally is. It's been an issue known for years, just give us the ability to increase the size of the cursor or change its color.

Here's a video of how it looks (ignore the current state of the game. It was not good.) https://youtu.be/ptt2qFycHGY Unfortunately the video had to be compressed to 720 p, but just try and keep up with the mouse.

Link to threads related to this topic: 2 years ago 8 months ago 1 year ago 2 years ago 1 year ago 1 year ago 3 years ago 1 year ago 4 months ago 2 months ago QA Response a year ago 2 years ago 3 years ago 2 years ago 2 years ago 2 years ago 1 year ago 3 years ago 2 months ago 2 years ago 2 months ago 1 year ago 3 years ago 2 years ago 10 months ago 10 months ago 2 years ago 2 years ago 3 years ago 2 years ago 1 year ago

Look, I get it, you don't want to give full scale 4k support, but this is something so crucial, and on your QA from a year ago, you stated you handled bugs and other such instances at times. We 4K users don't need full scale support. Keep your textures the way they are, keep your shaders the way they are, keep everything the way it is if you want

JUST GIVE US THE ABILITY TO CHANGE THE SIZE OF THE MOUSE!

You can even justify it not being strictly for 4K users and say that people with lower resolutions than 1920 can now DECREASE the size of their mouse if they think it's too big. Your cursor color is already super easy to lose on the screen. We need more customization of the thing as it is the most crucial part of the game.

Switched my primary monitor over to my 1080p monitor to try a game on, and this is what my shop looks like. I can barely see my items, and I can't see my gold at all. Selling anything is a pain. Just glad I didn't buy anything I didn't need.

Word of advice: You're better off taking this to reddit. Riot is more likely to see it (and reply) because they don't give a shit about their own forums, and you're more likely to drum up support with the community for your suggestion.

Priceless: May you please include my post too? https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/alpha-client-bugs/8eJzIyZV-4k-support

I want to comment on what they said on 2017: "we’d have to pull people away from a project like Replays or the new client to make a concerted effort on 4K, and as 4K is still a very small percentage of the player base it doesn’t feel like the right thing to do right now."

My Response: This is the main reason my beautiful 4k monitor is not my main screen. I play League a lot and cannot set this to default monitor because the game is flat out unplayable at 4k. This is why the 4k monitor will remain a small percentage of the player base. I feel so sorry for those who bought 4k laptops.

I think that's a bug. I've been playing on 4k for over a year now and I don't think it's that small for me. But if it is I got used to it. Either way, I'm all for a larger cursor since it is hard to follow imo

Support Bot Lane is correct.

This thread is now locked for constantly bumping with no new information or insight at all, just 3 pages of bumps.

I thought it was just me, just got a new 4k TV and decided to hook it up. The minimap especially was impossible to make out. And it was possible to make it smaller too lol

Right there with you dude, got a sweet new PC that's awesome for games more demanding than League, and I'm pretty sure I'll keep playing on my old laptop instead. With a 27" monitor, I have to play in windowed mode anyway to be able to follow the action.
