I get its a passion project but shouldn't that passion have been put into his model? It goes back to the days when riot was just 5 guys in a basement 13 years ago. It might be time for an update
I..... I can't do models? I'm a VFX Artist. I do VFXs.

It must feel like a bummer trying to help out a character on the side. Makes it feel like its better to just leave a character alone than have to deal with people constantly complaining about any new additions. Thank you for the hard work!
This is exactly how I feel right now. Not sure I'll make more of these if this is the reception it gets.
Okay so two things here..
You are telling us Riot employees are working on VFX updates in their 'free time', without being paid (and yes, that's what 'free time' means, if you're being paid for it it's not 'free time' is it?), and you expect us to believe this?
Assuming we do believe this, which is frankly pretty ridiculous, you're now telling us that a company worth over a billion dollars is not paying their employees for work implemented into the game because they are 'passion projects'?
Lastly, let's say this is all true, VFX updates have no influence on future VGU's, does that not strike you as just plain incompetent? Why bother doing an extremely minor update to a champion before a major one? it just doesn't make any logical sense, and neither does your response
We've always said these updates are passion projects. It's always been the case. We do this because we care, that's literally all there's to it.
Sorry if it doesn't make sense, I guess?
And this somehow disqualifies their (and my) opinion that it ultimately feels like there isn't a point to it? You can add all the buzzwords and reasoning you want to it but they're such minor and somewhat questionable changes, and over the board they're not even all better (turtle stance)
As I've mentioned countless times in multiple platforms, including on every single previous VFX update boards post
I'm sorry man, but not everyone is going to notice, even if you feel like you're saying it a million times.
I absolutely do not feel these are useless, but you have the right to your opinion and I respect it.
Do not get discouraged from the grumpy reddit comments RiotSirhaian, people don’t know the inner workings of how the design team operates. Just remember that we appreciate all of these improvements!
Oh well that's too late, I am highly discouraged already.
his new W looks so much worse, it's just a wierd green sphere instead of the hexagonal one we have now.
I'll see if I can slightly tweak it. As mentioned in another comment, this is a very simple damage shield with no other effects, so we want it to stay what it is: simple.
Giving VFX to a champion that needs a VGU. Feels like an absolute waste of time and money.
He absolutely needs a VGU, I agree. But these updates are personal passion projects aimed at improving gameplay clarity and reducing overall noise in the game. They do not influence any plan we might or might not have for future updates or VGUs.
Dislike the change to the shield. The hexes were like a turtle shell pattern. Now it's just some lame... full coloured green sphere with brief hexes
I'll see if I can tweak the shield a bit. This is a very simple damage shield with no special effects, so we're trying to keep it simple, as it should be.
Just feels pointless if they aren't going to update his model.
(Yes I know, the updated model is his ultimate, haven't heard that one a million times)
As I've mentioned countless times in multiple platforms, including on every single previous VFX update boards post, these updates do not influence or change any plan we might or might not have concerning VGUs or any other updates/changes.
These are passion projects we're doing on our free time to try and improve the game for both the players of those champions and their opponents. Improving gameplay clarity and reducing overall noise is our main objective.
Just wondering, why is shen getting buffed? According to their framework, a champion has to be below 49% winrate in the "Skilled" bracket to be considered underpowered.
https://na.leagueoflegends.com/en-us/news/dev/dev-balance-framework-update/But he sits at 51%+ already?
framework sets boundaries that requires changes, it does not prevent other changes.
“we hear you. and we’ve decide to implement a change. so in patch 10.15 you will see we have removed item descriptions entirely to avoid any confusion.”
I can promise you one thing, that will not be the change :)
Thank you for bringing this up! We are going to look into this and get a fix in soon, appreciate the feedback!
I'll be requesting for Riot Flair on Monday.
For the longest time I didn't really think that I can bring any value to you guys on reddit, but I think I can now. I work on the skins team as a sound designer, and whenever we receive feedback like these we go over it and see if we have the bandwidth and capability to fix it.
Notified the team that worked on Arcanist Kog'maw. Thanks for bringing this to the light.
Leaving this a little late, but why are you guys releasing 18 new skins and making them all legacy?
That's a terrible idea, for a long time Sylas's only skin was legacy, so anyone who picked him up after release was forced to use default even if he was their main, and now we're doing it AGAIN with Lillia?
Legacy skins can't make money 11 months out of the year, so what's the impetus behind this system?
These skins are not Legacy.
DAMN LOL
Funny story, I only know the random fact that the Riot LA lunch area is called the Bilge. A long time ago I threw a bunch of random office terminology at
RiotMasterCheeseCactopus and he bought it for a hot minute.Anyway hope the stay at home order is not too brutal! I work for an essential business and thus have to go into the office, hence my small mistake in the fact.
One day I'll try to apply to Riot...
its not called the bilge. bilgewater is a coffee/drinks bar, but actual meals are at noms. :)
many of our old champs reallly REALLY need visual updates :(. One at a time i guess
don't let your dreams be (only) memes.
A number of bug fixes have gone out for crashes as of today's PBE deploy (finished about 2 hours ago). Reply here with a new ZIP of your Logs if you're encountering a game crash still. Also include what behavior you experienced leading up to the crash if you can!
A decent number of the crashes being experience are related to the DirectX 11 testing we're doing on PBE right now. DX11 will be disabled on PBE with Wednesday's update for the rest of the 10.15 PBE cycle so we can finish preparing 10.15 for Live release.
or the classic "stand on a trap as blitz / thresh to get the free hook on the headshotting caitlyn" bait. my favorite
Have you gotten lunch yet? Know the long tables in the Bilge closest to the windows? I'll leave a post-it with a smiley on the rightmost side facing towards the food.
edit: please... buff him, nerf him, remove him from the game and make him a shopkeeper... please do something about his 3d model's lips. I love him more than life itself but when I zoom in I gotta speak up.
good luck doing that with all of California under stay at home order.
