Rito - have proper logging and a bunch more bugs will suddenly become reproducible on your own machines.

We have pretty good logging on a per plugin basis. It is harder to determine the sequence of events that led to a bug when multiple plugins have a bad interaction, hence the high value of collapsing them.

I feel like they spend more time making charts to make it look like things are being worked on than they do fixing the client. It just performs worse and worse.

Unfortunately the process is very slow, but from the charts we can see that we are making incremental improvements. I know that sucks to hear as a player, but this improvement project isn't going to happen in the course of a patch or two. We want to give visibility to players that we are trying, but doing so without the whole product being fixed lends itself to hefty criticism, perhaps rightfully so. We want to create a better experience for players and want to bring you along for the ride.

Thanks. I assume you use old.reddit.com? I checked my comment on reddit.com and also on the android app and it looked ok. I added double lines so it should look nicer on old reddit too.

Please report this crash by restarting the client and using the bug-report button or filling this form: https://pbr leagueoflegends.com/na/en_US/login

We haven't been able to reproduce this bug internally. We've tried to diagnose and fix it based on educated guesses. Getting more reports might help us spot a pattern.

Think of a clock with over 100 of small screws and gears
reducing the number of plugins etc is like removing the screws and gears while the clock still continues to work
now if sth gets broken, it is easier to spot which part is broken as there are fewer parts remaining than before

The nature of web plugins is so abstract to someone that isn't a software engineer that is hard to come up with good analogies. This one is pretty close, I like it.

Hey thanks for reply! Whenever I open rune pages in champ select they take 5-10 seconds to open. Sometimes when i save my runes they fail to save(with spare time not 1 second before game start) Also every 3-5 patches they just reset though this isnโ€™t much of an issue for me. Just in general trying to open, change, save, and close runes messes up sometimes.

Thanks for sharing. It definitely shouldn't take this long to load. A few more questions:

  • How many different runes do you usually have?

  • Is the delay only present the first time you try to open a rune? Does it get better the second time during the same champ select session?

  • Once it loads, is it fully functional? Do you see any obvious UI bugs like assets missing, messed up/stacked up elements etc? Can you click and configure the rune correctly?

  • Do you also experience delay when switching runes via the main runes UI? or only through the champ select edit rune button?

  • Do you also experience delay when you access your runes via Collections > Runes?

  • When you say "Sometimes when i save my runes they fail to save", do you see any error messages/notifications? or it fails silently?

Thanks a lot for your time, this is very valuable. We are working on simplifying the client cod...

Lol atleast 5 of the bugs that they โ€œfixedโ€ Iโ€™ve had this patch. Iโ€™ve also had a ton of other bugs in the client that are new since they started โ€œfixingโ€ the client.

Yea I log into the client faster but yesterday I had to wait 15 minutes because me and my friends whole right side of the client was gone. My rune pages still are super buggy in champ select. The honor screen is super buggy and my client crashes 1/10 times (and many of my friends) after a game. Every time I have a remake my client crashes. League voice still doesnโ€™t work for people with macs. Client still takes up for cpu% than the actual game.

Hey, thanks for the feedback. I've been involved in this project since February and I would love to hear more about: "My rune pages still are super buggy in champ select.". What exactly are you experiencing? Any details you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
