Can I ask, why post comments on Reddit? Do you find the feedback helpful here? Or just for fun? That little white fist is like a target on your back

Y'all play and care about League enough to spend your time on a subreddit dedicated to it. If we completely ignore feedback from some of the most dedicated players in the English-speaking community then what's the point of even doing anything we do?

I do enjoy engaging though. It's fun

Honestly if Papaya wanted my job no one at Riot would question it

riot might have over 200 years, but all 5.5 million of us challenjours together can accomplish the real changes players are asking for

It's been at least 2 years since the 200 years of experience thing. At least keep it accurate and say 202 years

I can see the US embassy from my window in my country, normally there are lines around the block massive amounts of people.

Right now? nothing, there is legit no one in it.

The problem is you need to get an appointment at the embassy or consulate through the US website. This year at my local consulate the next free date is in April. After that, it's in August, and then October. And I do mean date - as in, one singular date, with one appointment free at 8am, per month.

Does riot have bug bashes or polish sessions? Polish isn't a differentiator that drives new customers and revenue in the traditional sense, but y'all are gamers, y'all know what it's like when the QoL isn't as good as it could be in a game you play for hours a day. Is there anything at riot like a tiger team dedicated to QoL? maybe 4-6 devs from various teams on a month long rotation.

We do have polish phases and bug burndown time allocated on regular basis.

Why do teams keep getting caught out by incredibly predictable visa delays? Why aren't teams just aiming to get people over early and building these delays into the process?

As someone going through the US visa process right now I can tell you that it is very difficult to get a US visa, even with all the resources these orgs will have.

I filed for my visa at the embassy in December of 2021 and the earliest appointment date was August of 2022. Luckily, I managed to get this revised to February 2022, but that was entirely down to luck.

This is primary due to COVID - Visas are much faster to process in normal times

Yes.

Question, and not at all meant to be derogatory, why did it take so long to implement this? Was this just not seen as a priority? I feel like this had always been an annoyance to those who play with friends. Why was the preset pick order a thing to begin with?

I think this is a great question and I’d like to provide some visibility into why things like this seemingly take so long to just do.

It definitely seems from the outside that we’re working with unlimited resources, and in many ways we count ourselves grateful that we have been successful enough to continue to keep the game interesting for so many years; but, with the scale at which we operate League (and all our games really), there comes a whole slew of different prioritization issues that are just the reality of delivering these games to a massive player base. Specifically, size and impact of small problems like “randomizing champ select for premades,” pale in comparison to the size and impact of say everyday problems like “party nodes can’t handle the amount of games thrown at them.”

What you start to see (and what most companies that grow to this size will see) is a shift in how you HAVE to spend money and time, not just where you WANT to spend it.

We slipped and accidentally wrote code again!

This reminds me of an old Warcraft 3 Aeon of Strife map I used to play!

Hey, IDK where to drop this feedback but would it be possible to incrise the size for icons and runes in the new loading screen, I love how the new load screen looks now but those few a bit to small and compresed at the moment Again sorry idk where else to drop this feedback

This is the perfect place to drop that feedback. We've got it captured -- I think they're already trying to improve this. Thanks for raising it :)

Just for some clarification -- this is prep work for Challenges content coming later in the year, along with some new banner / identity content.

It's part of a larger piece change that we're rolling out-as-ready. Over a couple of iterations and testing passes, it just looked (and felt) way too cluttered leaving it as it was on the banner, and this was the option that felt the best.

We're still open to making changes, but since we're working on the next set of features, those changes may come later on and not in the next few patches.
