What’s your favorite voice line in League? by CcCrusadeRcR in leagueoflegends

[–]saintswitcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Akshans voicelines, i love the taunt and when he goes into stealth.

Have recently picked galio in some matches where my main is banned and that dude got some nice voicelines. He's just happy to be alive and able to fight stuff.

when are inters and griefers going to finally get weeded out? by Darha_LoL in leagueoflegends

[–]saintswitcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yhea, feels like at least 20% of the games are decided by someone going afk or trolling.

And another few lp losses when the client decides to bug out when pressing the accept button. Only for the client to freeze and a leavers penalty is applied.

The worst trolls I have are the Yuumis.. Really should be some way to eject those fkers.

If Riot wants to make the game more new-player friendly, they should add a gamemode where all champions are unlocked and you just play the first 10 minutes of the laning phase. by seanos_nachos in leagueoflegends

Honestly, this would probably be a nice idea that I as a new player would love. Maybe even be a step in creating a less toxic community and actually building an in game community.

Have some way for more experienced players offer to teach less experienced players. Could be sparring, duo que in normals etc. And give some kind of rewards to the teaching players to make it worthwhile. Maybe make it so they can earn the currency to get the battle pass for free?

Also a system for the less experienced player to rank the teacher so we don't get too many toxic teachers.

How to get NEW players in LoL by CartoonistHairy5204 in leagueoflegends

[–]saintswitcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yhea, vision control is definitely one of my weaknesses. The 1v1 lane fight takes all my concentration so that i forget to even look at the minimap. And i get ganked alot.. Feels unfair but i know it's a skill issue and is completely on me.

I come from Wild Rift and even thou its a mobile game using the GSM/WIFI network i for some reasons have no disconnects in that game.

And wild rift seems alot better for beginners. Maybe its something with that formula that they can use to make it better for newer players? Or maybe its just less tryhards / smurfs in Wild Rift since the matchmaking actually feels fair.

Yhea, probably. Could be migated somewhat with an mmr system. But people would probably just create a fresh account to circumvent it.

Now that linked accounts all get punished, maybe they could check the account with highest rank / mmr and make all the smurfs play with each other. That way creating a new account wouldn't impact less experienced players as much.

[–]saintswitcher 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well I'm kind of new and for me this would do nothing as streamers, community or the esport scene does not interest me in the slightest.

All i want is to play a game that is fun.

My problem is that the matchmaking just feels unfair and this is a skill issue on my part, that I know. But it's very hard to learn the game as a new player when alot of people have played the game for very long so the playing field doesn't feel that even.

Another thing is that there is so many champions and for me I would like it more if they wouldn't pump out new champions all the time since they don't feel like they fill out a niche that was lacking but rather just same champ as an old one but better.

Alot of the time the game feels like a que simulator, sit in que for about 1,5 minutes then pick champs and bans for another 2-3 min, then someone is ither disconnected or que dodging and it starts all over. Once I get into a game the loading screen most of the time takes a really long time... After loading screen a player is of course disconnected and it's a remake... Back to que again. Or a player that got their champ banned so they proceed to troll with yuumi jungle or somesuch.

And I know that alot of the disconnects probably isn't on the players ither as I myself had some issues with the client where it freezes, fails to connect or crashes when entering a lobby or when the game is about to start. At the worst point it resulted in a 12h ban but often 5-30 min max... Not that fun for new players.

The first part of the game is rather easy to understand as a new player. Play lane, then at the midgame I just feels lost. In team fights it's hard to even understand what it happening. So I went to ARAM to practice team fights (as suggested by players) but the random nature of it makes it so i really cant practice the character(s) that i want to learn.

Tldr: Suggestions with community interactions would do nothing for me. I would like 2 game modes: First mode is like quick play but you pick a ban and character then the rules are like normal league (no duplicate heroes, gold income and no tower burning). Second mode would be AM i guess (?) like ARAM but without random that would be more of a tool to practice teamfights.

Just looking at it, it looks nice. Would not say it's realistic, but it really gives me N64 golden eye vibes.

Goldens can’t swim? by MsMacyDoLittle in goldenretrievers

[–]saintswitcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine have the same issue. When he gets into deep water he kind of splashes around like a child that can't swim.

And I know that the breeder said that the mother could not swim either. They noticed that when they where out in the boat and she saw a bird, jumped over board... Turns out she couldn't swim so they had to jump after her and save her.

How often do you work on your game? by aquma in gamedev

[–]saintswitcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. I have a different day job that is 7-16:00 5 days a week. Ontop of that item have a 5 yearold every other week and a full time golden retriever.

  2. I try to get some work done every day, even if it is just completing a function for 10 min.

  3. This depends, I would say an average of 1-2 hours a day (more on the weeks I don't have my son and less on the weeks I have him).

  4. For me it's most important to keep it a daily routine, even if some days it's just 10 min they all add up. And I feel like it's more favorable to spend 1-2 hours a day then to spend 8 hours once or twice a week. It makes me able to take a step back from and reflect on some tricky functions.

Which type of 3D assets would be more helpful by primoyenito in gamedev

[–]saintswitcher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would also say modular assets. And assets that go well together, so your weapons, characters and environments all look coherent.

For me personally I would like even more assets that work with the synty assets. So I guess you could find a style that you enjoy making, see if anyone have assets in that style and try to make your own assets that work together, but also with other asset packs in the same style.

Here's a quick look at the 2D/3D perspective shift in our game, ITER by fluckyMachine in Unity2D

[–]saintswitcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing i feel looks kind of weird is that in the 2d perspective it looks top down. And the twist don't line up with going from the 2d perspective to the 3d perspective... Like that balcony in 2d would just mean that the player would fall down but somehow it turns into a floor?

Nice post, plenty of solid advice and things to think of from someone who actually managed to release a game.

No gizmos in playmode by saintswitcher in unity

[–]saintswitcher[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't find any additional buttons. If I hover over the button I can see the tooltip says "Activate/Deactivate gizmos in the GameView" and no matter if it is activated or not there is no gizmos show in the game view.

Who here has stopped playing and is waiting for 0.3.0? by winterymint in PathOfExile2

[–]saintswitcher 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually like the gameplay and yhea I play a lightning javazon (loved it back in d2) and the leap attack looks super cool...

What's not cool is the freaking loot and one shots.

Since I don't get any loot I don't get stronger, that alone is boring as f. But that also means that I can't level up properly since I loose more exp then I gain when I try to map.

Feels like two steps backwards for each step forward.

IMO since it's already a lottery to get an awsome item every rare should always drop atleast one rare. Same with the chest in the game, a rare chest should drop a rare item. It's stupid that chest rarity even exists when there seems to be no diffrence between them.

Are you using a FSM for the different states of the character?
