Get your Hexakills in while you can!

Riot··3 votes·20,810 views

The end is coming! After cavorting around Twisted Treeline for a couple of weeks, it’s almost time for us to pull the Hexakill Featured Game Mode back into the workshop. Get a game going NOW if you want to pull off the hexiest of multikills!

Why not always have a special mode going? Why do they have to go away for weeks at a time??

Make a rotation or a daily/weekly shuffle or somethng. Some of us want to play Ascension, One-for-all, URF, Doom Bots of Doom, Hexakill and King Poro Toss (whatever it was called) more than one week a year.

There's still a lot of special things you could do with the existing maps as well! Use the Crystal Scar more, make a melee only mode. Make an easter-egg hunt mode for CS or SR. Come on.

Rito, pls.

Things like that would be a great stress reliever or perfect for people who just want to play to have fun.

Yeah that could work. u could also make a champion type vs champion type game mode (e.g. Assassn vs Mage) or something. Or how bout a game mode where you're only allowed to bulid certain crazy items (e.g. AP items for AD champs). c'mon guys you're lagging

Yeah great idea, maybe u could have free champions and they are from specific places like Noxus vs. Demacia. Than u can pick your champions and have an all out war!

I totally agree! They should have it where at the last week of every month there is a special game-mode going all week long. Also to add on to the easter-egg hunt idea you could play One-for-all with Bard. Having more chances to play special game-modes would increase the amount of active League players. Along with that people would be more happy because they can play fun special game-modes more often!

Peace!

While yes the active League players may increase this could be seen as harmful to riots vision. They heavily want the competitive 5v5 scene to flourish. That's part of the reason they have these gamemodes. They break the monotony for some players to keep it fresh so they play for longer, along with other players firing up league after a lengthy hiatus so they play the game mode only to start enjoying the game once again and get back into the ranked scene.

As for if they were to ever put out a different game mode all the time, this would be counter intuitive to almost any company plan. Phone companies might have the next 2 or 3 generations of a phone mostly all planned out, yet they put off production until they know they've squeezed everything they can, both in profit and info, from the current gen. So riot puts out a gamemode, get the feed back and increase in player base, then they take it away so they can work on it while also funneling more people back into ranked.

Smite has a different game mode out every day. It doesn't cause any harm to that game. Rito is silly.

So how does Dota 2 do it? They have like 9 game modes all running all the time.

I agree with this, however only to a certain extent. I love the special gamemodes, but they lose their 'specialness' when you have a new one every two weeks. Now, perhaps making the main special gamemodes, like Urf, Doombots, and mirror match more available during the year would be better. Like, twice a year as opposed to once.

i agree, they should have some special gamemodes avaliable and some limited time only

Smite has a new gamemode every day. There is no harm in having a new one atleast every week or two. Players want to play something out of the norm.

YES! I think they should make URF a permanent gamemode or at least make custom mode WAYYYYYYYY more customizable like starting level, starting gold,Etc.summoner 14

I totally agree with this. Sometimes when I play a champ for the first time, I have to see what items work best. But not until about 8 minutes into the game do I get the first interesting item. Then, by the end of your custom game, you won, but never really got any good items because(duh) it was your first time as a champ. About 2-3 games later, you finally are good at the champion(YAAAAAAY)and you can test the champion worth items. But then you look at the clock and see you've been playing for 2 hours. Please take sethmich's idea Riot.item 3078 (ILLUMINATI)

YES!!! We need custom games to be actually customizable! Plz, Riot!

GlobalSaturation2 votes

every gamemode should certainty be available on custom games and rotate for online much more frequently.

Nirial1 votes

Totally agree. I would love to be able to play them more often than having to wait until certain times of the year.

The reason is because it would take away from the regular game modes. I assume that is their reasoning for it since every time there is a new mode the people bring this topic up. I mean it's not from lack of the players wanting something like this. Take dominion out and cycle a different mode every week/biweekly or something imo.

Why does Riot take away the modes? There should be more permit modes,it can't be cost effective to have a mode out for a week then pulling it, plus its like being teased (Riot "Here players, here's a mode you like but you only get to play it one a year") feels like a middle finger to me... This is why casual players like myself leave for long periods of time, I know I'm not the only one, I have family and friends who feel the same way.

it's too bad Hexakill on TT is the shittiest featured game mode of all time.

Ljeytl1 votes

Personally, Hexakill on TT was not my thing. But whether I liked it or not isnt the reason Im posting. I really appreciate featured gamemodes. Whether im in them or not. They seem to have some magical thing on all of my games to remove all of the toxic players and replace them with rather kind players. Maybe its bcuz all of the toxic players rather go play the featured gamemode or something, im not sure, but i feel like whenever theres a featured gamemode all of my games PARTICULARLY the ones outside of the gamemode are a lot higher in quality. Im posting becuase i jut want some feedback on these thoughts.

Boring game mode. Probably the least satisfying mode i've ever seen. Bring back ascension with 6v6.

i feel as if riot should make a special game mode come out every time a special holiday (Christmas, 4th of July, etc)so like a rotation of new game modes come out often enough but not too often. pls buffitem 3711

You know what? They should keep every special mode all the time in custom games!
