New Summoner's Rift discussion.

Probably have been said a thousand times but new Summoner's Rift isn't really that detailed, don't get me wrong I think it's a nice upgrade from old SR with the new jungle monsters minions and towers and superb animations overall.

the thing I dislike are the textures, they are so bad when you zoom in especially on the grass it looks terrible and fake, I feel like there's barely any life, the ground looks so blurry.. I don't think that upping the quality of something is distracting, why can't we have HD textures as an ultra setting, I personally believe it can be more beautifully detailed without it being "diverting".

What are your thoughts on the new SR, is it good or bad? what would you change about the map if you could?

Thanks for listening.

It's pretty hideous if you ask me (since you did!); I feel like I'm playing WOW or a bad indie game. But, too late to go back :( I've actually been playing quite a bit less because of these new graphics.

I agree, it looks like a custom map some fan created not the official riot map. they will never make it more detailed than this, as a guy who probably spent too much they have made promises they have not fulfilled time and time again overhype things and lie and say it's not yet finished, six months from that video and all they added was some critters and shitty references, why can't we have nice graphics? My faith in the company was lost a long time ago.

I think it looks really cool. Everything is so much smoother and it looks much better than the old one.

It seems good but when you take a closer look it's not, it's like covering a turd with whipped cream.

For the hundred of times, I actually feels like I was playing some crappy games on facebook because of the textures on the new summoner rift! Oh well, who doesn't like to kill a bad ass looking baron and dragon...but the rest of the map besides the new cool monsters are poop! I would like to see way better textures for the rest of the map... it is not like with the trade off of a less detailed textures summoner rift, we have no LAGS..... that is NEVER the case, I guess the trade off does absolutely nothing... Riot, your summoner rift is still lagging from time to time!!!!!
