Leaver buster vs. Bots??

Finalhart··2 votes·820 views

Dear Rito, As of late my PC has been playing up because lets face it, it's getting on in its life. I've spent most of my teenage life bonding with this lappy of mine and its done exceptionally well in the our past 6 years we been together, but lately it throws it's tantrums when i try to play league just league for some reason. So to test out whether my lappy is up for playing vs players I go vs bots first, and this is what bugs me. Why do we get leaver buster ques for playing vs bots. I mean you already have the AI set so that when someone leaves so does a bot. Its as if i'm getting punished for paying a solo game cause realistically , vs. bots no one players as a team, and people are there to just understand mechanics of champs or troll doing random ships.

Point being I don't want to cause anyone grief by unintentionally DCing during a pvp game, so you riot should allow people or anyone one else a bot game where by if we make it to the end we get rewarded and if we don't we don't get rewarded, not freak'n punished. So i propose you should remove leaver buster penalty for bot games cause simply put that s&%$ is just playing stupid and it pis&£$ me of waiting 10 mins to play vs bot just to test out my PC, then to get penalized further (20mins) if it don't work VS BLOODY BOTS!

I hope you consider this in your future patches, think about the old folks here! Zilean Sincerely, Finalhart

Go in custom game, you can leave it whenever you want without LB ;)

Yea, this is true but I don't stay in customs for more then 10 mins when my lappy might kick of at 20+ mins. Playing vs bots games normally go for about 20-30 mins which is by far better and more engaging. I knows there are people that leave just to watch the world burn in normals, but in bots this should rarely be the case. The way i see it people that play vs intermediate bots are there cause they don't have time for pvp, so might need to leave at anytime or just there to get quick exp. EDIT: There are however people i have met in bot games that genuinely report people for leaving, like wtf....these carebares need to be terminated.

its probably because the Leave Buster is for all types of Queues. its cannot be disabled for one or the other. its for all queues or none of them. While i understand why people would be against this. its the principle of the matter! Dont leave your games. If you feel like your PC (Laptop) cannot handle this game for what ever reason Play customs. While i understand that Bots do leave when someone actually leaves. it still gets to other players, and puts them at a fault that this is something that normally happens in all their games. which isnt something you would want!

I would say its time to get a new laptop, or even make a computer so you can run this game flawlessly (although riot servers would say otherwise) But if you need to test out if your game can run you dont get leave buster from Custom games. Or ive never gotten it when ever i left my custom matches!

To be fair its pretty rude to leave the match, especially when giving no warning. If someone states why they need to leave (at in my opinion is a valid reason) i wouldnt report them even in other queues. Real life problems are more important than a game, But that shouldnt excuse just leaving without saying anything!

it would be like playing any type of sports and having someone just get up a leave! its not fair to your teamates, and just leaves everyone feeling upset. even its just practice, a small scrimmage, or playing against another team!

I do understand your point but from my perspective I just see bot games as 5 man solo game, whereby each person does their own thing. I really don't class playing vs bots sports in any form, its like punching a piece of wood to show hard you are...but yea yea i guess your right ques for normal's and bots are most likely linked so i doubt my wish will ever happen, but hey its off my chest.

i mean i feel that way too. But there are new people in this game who need that team work and arent in it just to solo the game. it shouldnt be fair to those new player who get queued with people who are just playing bots for the hell of it.

But it would be nice to have it not count. i mean it doesnt make sense and would be great if they could take out leave buster only for Bots, but i just dont think it will happen or even if it can happen since i would assume the people at riot know its not something we need in bot games!

I actually LIKE it when players leave in bot games, cause then I get to score more Pentas and feel like an LCS boss. Less people to KS my kills.
