I want to share my personal impression of the game.
First of all, after the update to UNREAL 5, the game turned into complete SH*T. Just pathetic trash.
In one match it counts properly, and you can get 30–40 kills. In the next match, it feels like there’s desync between interpolation and the actual ping. It’s like you’re seeing everything with a 2-second delay, and everyone looks like they’re using cheats. At best, you get 4 kills in the whole game. BUT! If you restart the game, then often (but not always) — MIRACLE! — the game suddenly starts working correctly. So the problem must be with the damn routing!
But then there’s another bug, which has been in the game for a MONTH already!!
If you rejoin the game, you spawn as a corpse. This bug is reproducible 100% of the time. But RIOT apparently doesn’t care. Or maybe things are so bad with their devs that they still can’t fix such an easy-to-track bug.
And sometimes the game just crashes when you press ESC, but that only started happening recently.
Now the main thing. Why the hell are there no timeouts like in CS2? What’s the problem with allowing a pause if a player disconnects? Just one minute, like in CS, and let people vote for a timeout. Is this supposed to be a competitive game or what?
For reference, I’m on an i9 with a 4080, and a clean Windows install dedicated only to gaming.
Oh right, and why the hell does the game now take so long just to load into the regular menu? It’s like it’s trying to load a GTA V map in the background.
