07.14.13 | I started playing back in Season 1 before the Brazilian/Latin American server, and that was really frustrating |
ViperAces
07.14.13 | yea, same was here before they broke europe into two servers. russian spammers everywhere!
there are still some german/french dude that speak bad english but at least its better than that russian spam |
treeqt.
07.14.13 | being german myself playing on eu is pretty chill as long as you got no 5th world east europeans in your game. most non ru fags are either german themselves or scandinavian and it's somewhat easy to read those languages as a german. |
ViperAces
07.14.13 | i dont even see foreign languages anymore, so just the bad english stuff, even though most have good english. or are you talking about games in general and not just LoL? |

07.14.13 | dota 2? i guess LoL has overall better userbase (though its pretty hard to believe)
if youre ever playing LoL we should play together man |

07.15.13 | "oh too bad :S what is the big difference anyway? haha always thought lol was dota for retards but didnt think there was anything different"
there are tons of differences. whether they are big or small depends on who you ask but while the games are both based on Aeon of Strife (dota is, lol is based on dota and thereby also based on AoS [sc:bw custom map]) they play out very differently. Things like AP/AD, roles (support, carry, whatever) by design, summoner spells, jungle buffs, rune pages and so on and so forth don't exist in DotA. I'm not gonna say that any game is easier to play (because that is a retarded statement in my opinion) but most features in lol definitely make the game more casual friendly. Which doesn't have to be a bad thing. In fact quite some of the changes are quite appealing to me and could potentially make for an interesting game. The problem with LoL in the end is that Riot is fucking retarded. Not having access to all champions is the worst thing imaginable, but I guess it's kinda alright because they're "all the same" anyway. Not to mention that everything costs dollar. You actually have to level to play proper matchmaking. bla bla bla ... Valve is doing a far better job when it comes to making money while not making the game retarded. As it stands Dota is probably the more complex game at the moment. But that also comes with being around for longer.
One good thing about Riot though is that they made/make eSports grow at a rate that was not possible before league. A self-sufficient scene is most likely better long term but I don't really care for the LoL scene so if it eventually fails I'm ok with that. But they played a major role in bringing esports to where it is today, can't deny that. |
iswimfast
07.15.13 | yea and as soon as another dota-like game came around they tried to buy out teams to be LoL-exclusive and tournaments to not run HoN or Dota 2 alongside it.
Riot is without question the biggest problem with LoL. |

07.15.13 | "Not having access to all champions is the worst thing imaginable"
never had a problem with that actually haha. recently they made an APB server that is like a demo server and everything is free and you get all the new champions a week before they come out(so riot can fix them before they release them to the ranked server) but i never felt the need to play it.
"Not to mention that everything costs dollar."
i am playing for over three years now and never spend a euro on the game. some of my friends payed over 100 on the other hand...
"You actually have to level to play proper matchmaking."
well, when i started playing i was a total noob so it didnt matter much to me =P
i guess its because you played dota all these years, i mean i tried playing dota 1 once and it was a total mess. i played against the computer only but still i didnt really know what i was doing |

DotA 1 was absolutely awful in that regard. There was no way the game was gonna get significantly more popular without being a standalone and making a lot of stupid things easier. And league did that or they wouldn't have the player base they do have. Marketing gets you a lot of players but it doesn't necessarily keep them playing if the game itself is unplayable. |
