Riot ffs fix the PBE queues!

H0nda Hitomi··25 votes·10,914 views

its sad that i wait for more than 4 hours to login and some streamers just click the log in button and they are in in just 5 minutes. I even deleted my 8gb logs i had and still nothing happened the queue got even longer. And just today i waited for 4 and a half hours to log in and then a message popped out saying something about errors. And when i even log in sometimes there is something wrong with the servers and i cant play tft for like 20 minutes and so. Also everytime i play tft my pc suddenly closes mid game and i have to wait again. F I X I T F F S [slayer-jinx-unamused]

The servers are too full

H0nda Hitomi1 votes

i know, but isnt there a way to fix it

mack91122 votes

the reality is the pbe server probably doesnt see that kind of traffic usually so there was no need to invest in more space if there was no new demand.

In reality once tft goes live the pbe server will return to normal population numbers.

H0nda Hitomi1 votes

so.. i guess we wont be able to log in to pbe for 2 motnhs+ ? Because this is when usually changed arive and specially if they are big. I hope people will lose interest cause some people havent even played the game yet

The game will go live in patch 9.13 (next week).

So this problem will disappear very soon and pbe will be back to normal. People don't care about other changes that much. It's just that this is a completely new game and it's hyped by other people non league related, like all the dota auto chess streamers/fans. So many people who never played league or cared about it have joined pbe now to play this "new game". All those "intruders" (I mean, non league players and streamers) will disappear on next patch which will solve the problem.

Wait, why do you think they will suddenly leave once it launches onto live? Espesically with ranked coming soon after that The problem will be solved on live because live has multiple servers. The PBE is just one server. Spreading all of the players out on a bunch of different servers will solve the issue. I'm just kinda unsure why you think the non league player and streamers will disappear

m0u2 votes

he meant disappear like they play on the live servers and will disappear on the pbe so they wont have an impact to the performance of the servers anymore.

Doom emissary1 votes

Yes exactly, I meant that all of them will go play on the live servers that are much more stable, have more capacity (no waiting time on login) and are "official" so they keep their rewards and everything on their main account.

Which means that pbe will go back to it's normal state in terms of population.

oh thank god i didnt know that it was coming that soon

No... i highly doubt a game in such a raw state, will be launched ANY TIME soon.

Doom emissary1 votes

That's what Riot officially announced and even in live, it will be considered as a beta.

Also, they did the same with nexus blitz so I don't see why they can't now.

They should make something after 5min without using the launcher you are logged out automatically

H0nda Hitomi1 votes

yeah because there are people who leave their accounts open when they sleep so they wont disconect.

H0nda Hitomi1 votes

loool

H0nda Hitomi3 votes

Chrôvax2 votes

Also waited 2 times more than 4hours for an Error message when the Queue time ended...

H0nda Hitomi3 votes

i hope they fix it, im sick of this waiting the whole day wasting my time and end up not playing

The problem is that if login to the pbe launcher you can stay on it even if you don't use it it doesn't close or log you out automatically. I know this since today I logged in to my pbe account at 6 to play. 2 games of tft and then I had to go to do work with my dad and when I came back home I was still in the lobby. I was out for 5 hrs. This allow people to say on the launcher even if you aren't playing denying other people to join thus cause more login traffic.

so basically, fuck you.

H0nda Hitomi1 votes

yeah but if i do this, i will block some players from logging in, and i want everyone that hasnt played tft to log in not just me

edit: i cant even log in anymore

the reason most streamers are able to get on is because they're generally consistent pbe users. if you're less consistent on it, your login is given less priority.

Sure some streamers use the pbe, but most of the streamers that are playing TFT never touch the PBE, and a lot of them don't even play league to begin with.

You have no idea whether they play league or pbe off stream...

neither do you... the reason streamers get log in priority is because they are giving tft publicity... it doesn't take a genius to figure that one out... it's not because they play pbe more than other people you ninny

H0nda Hitomi2 votes

that is super unfair. riot should do something about it and not only log in streamers. Ofcourse i like it when streamers play TFT and i watch till midnight but dude its unfair for the rest that are wasting their day waiting to log in and then failing

Terozu1 votes

Except there s no way for the system to check if the person logging on is a streamer...

It's a PBE server dude, it's unstable and can not hold 1/10 to the amount of players the live servers can. If you want to play TFT, just wait till the patch comes out next week.

H0nda Hitomi1 votes

next week the people that are playing tft now, lose interest, but other people that havent played tft yet they would try to log in too. I hope riot will solve this problem or either some people stop playing (not for others players just cause they are bored etc)

SurpriseMadness1 votes

I don't think interest will be lost that fast

H0nda Hitomi1 votes

ik but i just learned that tft is coming on 9.13... so im happy now

DerpyBarton1 votes

The fact that only 9,000 players can get into a PBE play server is ludicrous. On top of that the TFT map type has flooded the client like they knew it would. So my real point is, why bother putting it on the PBE in the first place and not create it's own standalone client to test? It resolves some of the log in issues, the people that want to test the LEAGUE OF LEGENDS changes get a chance to see it through and in turn benefit the game they are actually KNOWN for (instead of this cheap Auto Chess imitation). Also you get real responses for the game if you have more than the idiot click bait-centric streamer dumbasses that are flooding my recommended on YouTube with still-frames of their fake ass reactions.

Sincerely, An actual League of Legends fan

H0nda Hitomi1 votes

loooool

H0nda Hitomi1 votes

covertpenguin1 votes

Yeah it is some BS that they open it up to everyone and the people that have had pbe accounts for years can't even get in and then streamers and such can get in whenever they want. Thanks rito I see where your priorities..... The money... sad days probably not gonna play tft anymore cause if they can't handle pbe servers going boom how the hell they gonna have live servers that work gg riot gg

H0nda Hitomi1 votes

its funny cuz i bet rioters read all of those feedbacks they get not just for pbe but for more issues too but they just ignore them

Mister Garvey1 votes

Riot just want to make sure that the streamers and their own staff got a place on the PBE for this gamemode. Ist obvious that they don't want the "normal" players to have access. We can go on Twitch and tune in to the streamers to see what this gamemode is about. Just marketing nothing else.

My Story today: Waited from 10 am to 10 pm...whole freaking 12 hours before the counter started from "over 9000" to go to 1. At the exact time I was the first in Q...right...i got the error Message too. Q`d up again and "estimated time 30 hours".

So when i see all the same Storys, from other people here, you can make your own opinion on that case but for me, Its the fact that they don't want "us" to play this until it is on Liveservers. Btw would that be totally fine for me if they would have communicated it that way but that would have caused a shitstorm by the playerbase. So they just give you the "possibility" that you think they would give you a spot to try it out. But I guess, we already know that we got a kick in the ass. And pls don't start to say that this isn't the case here.
