Is Marksmen a typo? I know we have the "combo marksman" coming, is there a second or did you mean "marksman"

It was a typo

how on earth did that ult hit thresh?

I think the very back part of thresh's hitbox was still within the ult. It was very close.

Hey Reav3, now that both Lillia and Yone have been shown can we expect a roadmap in the near future before the Marksman? Or will the next roadmap happen after their release?

Current plan is for the next roadmap to be after the Marksmen

If customers were like WT, then every business would be rich. Deviates away from PD to buy Hex. Buys PD and then decides hmm let’s upgrade it to maw.

Then Kobe praises WT for his maw purchase lol.

Lol yeah I hadn't seen a maw in so long I just thought OH COOL MR SHIELD and didn't even look he already had PD. XD

like i told you before, the art updates are something that he can do if he wants, but isn't a direct requirement of his position. its like a cartoonist working on sketches to improve themselves, and realizing that "hey, I can take this further and do something official".

u/RiotSirhaian here was saying that his higher ups were telling him that it's fine to work on these projects, but not to take work home with him. It's fine to work on the updates independently while he's clocked in, but outside the office/times is a no-no.

Basically exactly this ^

Ty for explaining, I'm bad with words. <_>

Expect as you said in your post Riot says not to do this stuff and the only time you get to work on it is between projects on during your lunch break

That ain’t right. These are major improvements to the game they should be directing people as talented as you to continue to do this and give you scheduled time to do so. Not rely on you giving up your lunch break.

Well I obviously cannot disagree with that, but afaik, we simply do not have the resources for this currently, as you can see that we are hiring multiple VFX Artists at the moment if you check the Riot website. And we're already doing this simply because we do enjoy doing it, so honestly for me, this is fine. But I definitely see your point and agree with it.

So you aren’t being paid to do this and being persuaded not to improve the game in this way by riot

Great.

That's.... exactly the opposite of what I explained: I'm told by Riot not to work outside of work hours.

We have not yet released her Eternals to live. RiotXenogenic can go into more if possible.

dont you have a script to prevent unrealistic values?

I think we'll build in a failsafe after this, yeah. There isn't any circumstance where we'd want to set these values to 0.

Yeah, I am just joking.

I got the joke, don't worry <3

100% = 1

0% = 0

95% = 0.95

Yup, this is how it works. It's a multiplier to incoming damage, so 1 = normal. and 0.95 means 5% less damage taken. 0, of course, makes somebody take no champion damage ever, which is what happened here.

Have I ever told you how much I love micropatches. So easy to apply, easy to revert. None of that redeploy nonsense with needing to create new builds and force everyone to patch again.

I don't think I was around before micropatches, so I don't know the old way! I'm very thankful for them, though :D

why not add one for all only when a new champion comes out its not something permanent and it should fix the dodging problem.

OFA isn't something we're able to just turn on and it works. If we went that route, we'd need to dedicate dev time and resources to making sure the new champ is even playable in that game mode. And the team that would be giving those resources is the same one that is working on the different modes for live. This means even less RGMs or lower quality RGMs than what we put onto live.

This is only the current state of where resources are put and could change in the future when priorities change, but for now OFA just for PBE champ releases isn't within budget.

players: hold my petals

Lol, I mean I didn’t say it wasn’t possible for hard grinders. We tuned it so it would be possible for all players to eventually max all spirits even if they don’t play as those champs and can’t spam. A majority of our players don’t or cant play a ton of games a day. The petal system was meant for the hard grinder players

Papaya, I have a message for you.

Comment

Thanks. I appreciate you.

Comment

"BIG repurcussions" LOL

Okay, Papaya, bring it on. But when you realize you're hopelessly outmatched, don't expect any help from your jungler, TSM have never had one.

I hope you come to worlds one day so we can settle this once and for all. Oh wait, when has TSM actually shown up at worlds? The only TSM I've ever noticed there were the chants in the crowd when they weren't even playing.

Sorry, that went a bit too far. And I want you to know that I do have some remorse about ruining your job interview. I know TSM are desperate for a coach and Regi finding out you don't know what comes after groups is a deal breaker for sure. If you need a referral, I can write you a glowing recommendation, there will be an open position there in a few weeks. There always is.

How do they work, technology-wise? Do you merge a hotfix into a branch that is targeted by an automated system starting up game server instances?

More or less yeah. Can technically get into the weeds and say we bypass the branch and bandage the servers directly, but you've still got the right idea.

The core is we don't need to merge into branch, build, then upload and set up the new build in the servers. I do this for many other fixes, happy I don't need to do it for number tweaking too.
