Yeah, you don't see people bitching about replays
Meanwhile we get psychobabble!
i mean, ppl bitch about replays, but that's because just like here riot was kind of dumb in how they present this stuff to ppl
if you just went like "sorry guise its not happening" people would still be mad because they don't get something they want (like ppl get upset when ahri gets a skin and yorick doesn't) but at least they wouldn't feel like insulted or whatever
Thing is other than connecting it to a network, or making it available to your client only, they most likely have a working sandbox mode internally where they can do stuff like that.
yeah but development tools are not a product. they can't just sort of release that and be done with it
there's obviously some costs in maintaining queues for that mode, making sure ppl don't melt their videocards off using a million lux ults at once or whatever, but it should be manageable
Literally, all they have to do is add a mode with 100% cooldown reduction and 90% of people will stop bitching about this. That's like what? A few days coding at most?
it's probably way more than that, specially if riot wants to keep the standards they've set for themselves
think about how complicated this game is and how many things could go wrong if you did those changes. all the crashes, weird interactions, bugs, whatever, imagine testing for all of that!
maybe at 100% cdr some spells plain don't work so what do you do, you fix all the spells for those cases?
then ppl will bitch about riot fixing sandbox instead of the jungle or whatever
it's obviously not something simple that they just raise the cdr cap or whatever, but it's also clearly not a "barrier of entry" issue either
