GagaVerse 2 Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Is this replacing today's Summoner's Rift? Yes. We’re still ironing out the full launch, but this update will eventually roll out to every queue that loads up Summoner’s Rift. More details to come. How much is gameplay changing? We’ve made a number of quality-of-life changes around readability, but you won’t be fail-flashing because of the new map. Flashable walls, turret ranges, lane sizes, brush interaction and ward placements are all exactly as they are on the current map. Dragon and Baron feature reworked design and art, driving them toward feeling more intimidating and powerful. From a purely gameplay perspective, we focused on clarity, eliminating randomness in their attack patterns so skilled players can predict and avoid the monsters’ attacks. When's it hitting live? We don’t have an exact date right now. We’ll be squashing bugs, ensuring great performance and listening for player’s feedback throughout the update’s stay on the PBE. All the work ahead makes a firm date tough to pin down. How do I play the update? The update will soon patch out to our PBE environments and that’ll be the only place to play until it goes live. We’re working to get the map ship-shape and will keep you posted as launch plans take shape. Will you do a Team Builder-style beta on Live? We’d love to open up such a great avenue for feedback and we’re exploring the possibility, but technical hurdles like patch sizes and performance concerns make a live beta a tricky proposition for this update. We’ll keep you posted. Will I need to upgrade my PC or Mac to play? At this very moment, the new map is more memory (RAM) intensive than the current map, however we’re optimizing like crazy and we’re committed to performance parity with the current Summoner’s Rift. You will not need to upgrade your PC or Mac. What's this mean for other maps? We’re not quite sure yet. We’re laser-focused on getting this update to players globally.

GagaVerse 2 Posted June 6, 2014 Author Share Posted June 6, 2014 It looks amazing :D I was waiting for that to happen cause they were lacking new champions and the map started to feel old :) Nope there are about 110+ champions and I think focusing on visual&gameplay update is better. I think every new released champion is getting bored fast due to lack of the new ideas. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think every new released champion is getting bored fast due to lack of the new ideas. It felt like they were going to do something big ( a new big map or update to SR ) cause it does not take a lot of time to create new game modes like urf and one for all. Also they were slow at bringing new champions compared to last year . Since different groups of people work on balancing the game, fixing the bugs etc. , visual team surely was working on something other than only updating champions' visuals . thats what i was saying basically. i did not say it was a bad thing that they were not bringing new champions i said that i thought it was the reason why they were lacking it.

Well doing all the stuff in one patch is not a good thing, I mean you know the Elise patch and Twisted Treeline VU when was released? I was so overhyped because of the massive changes and when they finally came up I got bored in a week so in other words giving small patches every month and refreshing the game is better than doing that in one patch. I literally killed English ! Are you NA or Eu ?????? EUNE :). I guess you are NA. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
