Really long tweet about #VCTEMEA sorry I'm really disappointed about the issues in our region so far, as people could have already seen from my previous reply A lot of the issues we're dealing with now have been ongoing since the beginning of franchising. In the first year or two, we raised concerns and were told to “be patient.” But now it’s year three, and nothing seems to be improving. Hardware/Monitor issues – I’ll be honest: the gear we’re playing on could be a lot better. We’ve been giving feedback on the monitors for ages, and I honestly don’t even know what the reasoning is anymore—because every time we bring it up, we’re given a different answer. The PCs aren’t optimized, settings change constantly, and most tech pauses are due to the game stuttering so badly. IT checks it and if they see it or not - we just keep playing. No fixes. This week, we were told we’d be playing online on stage with 30 ping (I get 7 at home) to combat performance issues and tech pauses. But that’s not going to solve anything if the core issue—the hardware isn’t fixed. Everyone, LAN or online, is still experiencing stutters. It’s honestly shocking to see every other region with superior PCs and monitors, while in EMEA we’re stuck with setups from League of Legends. And when we bring up performance issues, the answer is: “But league of legends doesn't have this problem” Crowd – They’ve removed the crowd for Wednesday games. Riot has their reasons, but we weren’t even told ahead of time. We found out the same day as fans did. I feel bad for rookies making their tier 1 debut with no crowd—it takes away a huge part of the experience. And it’s worse for fans who traveled hoping to support their favorite players live. Issues remain unsolved, and more keep getting added. I'm tired of hearing "we'll look into it/we'll fix it soon" We’ve raised these concerns every split, every year, hoping for progress. I truly hope that now with everyone aware of these issues real improvements can finally happen. I'm happy you guys are making the Player Council where we will be more heard and hopefully the issues are going to be fixed, but for now i have to tweet this ❤️
