Original Post — Direct link

I think there are 3 possibilities, that are of course, just my original theories.

1_ Riot has been working on a new client for 2 years

2_ Riot has been trying to fix Skip waiting for stats bug for 2 years.

3_ They don't care.

Why do you think this bug hasn't been fixed yet ? Share your theories down on the comment section. No trolling please, thank you.

Thanks for the feedback!

We did do a number of things for EOG (End Of Game) second half of last year, and also some fixes early this year (see previous dev posts). Although it did fix some key issues, it is still not enough since EOG is still the most common complaint we see from players.

EOG involves multiple services and interacts with things outside the client (game engine, services, client foundation), and we have also heard from players weird bugs being reported when using discord (also on chromium) with the client. All these random things, plus a player's hardware, can result in strange behavior for some in EOG.

We are launching our next comms post next Friday, but a little preview is that we are going to initiate another investigation in EOG, map everything out, and figure out where we can continue to make improvements, and this will likely require other teams outside of client to make changes too.

Thanks

I work in software developement / IT consulting and 90% of the time its the consumers fault. Be it some bloat or maleware on their machine, be it firewalls not being configured correctly and so on.

Now obviously I don't work with Riot and don't know the details of how the client and/or the game runs AT ALL. I can only tell you that the fact that some people have more issues than others CLEARLY hints to the source of the problem being the Local machine and NOT the client itself.

I KNOW the client has some issues and encounter SOME of those myself at times (Shop not loading or skip waiting for stats) but I encounter them very rarely.

And considering what type of stuff people have running on their Machines without even knowing, its likely many issues lie on the consumer side.

And yes Riot is still the ones who probably SHOULD troubleshoot if possible, yet they physically can't fix all bugs. The environment is changing too quickly, which is btw the reason MOST bugs in MOST Software happen. Its something changing. Be it a Windows Patch, a Driver Update or a Firmware Update on your router. There are so many factors to consider in these things that just "fixing" them is really not as easy as it sounds NOR a realistic option.

well said, but we acknowledge EOG is the most common complaint from players and we still want to see what we can do to make it better for as many players across the board
