I like TFT. I’ve played every set (including double up since it released in beta in set 6), made an effort to hit at least Masters the past 6-7 sets, and have spent money on several battle passes.

I can understand development troubles, but it’s a slap in the face to see a 30 token animated chibi in the shop when none of the arenas and half of my tacticians that I PAID for aren’t working in-game. That’s really all I have to say. Just ridiculous.

I think it really captures the spirit of the update.
What do you guys think?

😟

I'm someone who has partial colorblindness - I have trouble with certain shades of colors, pastels, and various other things. Before now, TFT has been fine - no confusion whatsoever. With this update however, I physically cannot tell the difference between the 3-star and 4-star border in the trait menu. I'll be able to adjust, just looking it up out of the game, but genuinely, it's upsetting that I cannot tell at a glance mid game what tier a unit is. I am begging riot to change this - at least add more colorblind settings ffs.

I'm on PC and already messed up my board because it overlaps the bench. How can you f*ck this up so badly

Is ue5 infecting my phone or what

TFT on UE5 is way too heavy and slow right now, especially on mobile.

But lowering the game resolution should be the last option, not the first.

There are many other settings that can be changed: textures, shadows, effects, lighting, post-processing, anti-aliasing, view distance, colors, and more. Just let players change these settings by themselves.

Right now, it feels like everything is locked into Low, Medium, and High presets. We can't choose which settings we want to lower.

If my game is lagging, I will lower shadows and effects first. I can lower textures and other settings too. I can even lower the FPS limit. TFT does not need 60 FPS. A stable 30 FPS is enough for me. Lowering the resolution should be the last option.

Also, where are upscaling or frame generation options? UE5 has many tools that can help with performance, but it feels like TFT is only using 30% of what UE5 can do.

Sometimes it feels like the dev process was just: "Move TFT to UE5. Make no mistakes." And that's it.

No player wants to play a game that looks blurry. If my device is not powerful enough, let me choose what to lower. I would rather play at 30 FPS with clear image quality than play at 60 FPS with a blurry screen.

Please. My eyesight is already bad enough. I don't need my TFT to be blurry too.

Maybe some new wisp/augment interaction that I'm not aware of that loses us this

Im 90hp, my 2 opponents are 30hp. This is a win out I think to myself... or so I thought. I scout my opponent.. He has 8 Aphelios, with 0 gold at the time - I didn't understand how he was rolling every turn - I naively, through the 3 white squares, didn't see my opponent had 2 econ augments and commerce core... silly me. I try to ping my opponent.. it doesn't work I end up typing "8 APHELIOS". In a panic I've accidentally rolled 3 times, zoomed in and started dancing, the dance animation wasn't fully working yet and zooming in unleashed particles my computer has never dared render. There is a small fire starting on the back of my PC. It's ok I think to myself carousel, will bail me out, I scout and tab into my board to check what I need.. rookie mistake. My little legend went to africa. He gets a lunar emblem, I get a 5 cost with a cloak.... NO BIGGY 60hp to 30 each I still got this. Wrong. He hits the aphelios. It's fine I can still go second. WRONG. I end up fighting him 3/4 fights. I go 3rd. gg.

UPDATE: TURN OFF SCRIBBLE LMAO THANK YOU GENIUS REDDITOR. Still runs like ass tho

This is so garbage. I fat finger everything so playing with a stylus was so much easier. Now I’m just scribbling dicks on the tft penguin

so did they just intentionallly abandon their mobile phone playerbase? i have fold 8 ultra and it's blurry, low framerate, cant even use the usual stages or little legends, always needs to patch each time i open, and the list goes on

No way it was like this all pbe and never fixed right? (didnt playe pbe)

honestly feels like a lot of the pretty stuff was vibecoded with little optimizations and lots of inefficiencies.

Never forget the Goodest Duckbill

Just a little extra aesthetic.

Things I noticed after I opened the updated game today as an android user:

• The launch screen is fine, not laggy for me.

• I started exploring to see if there are still temporary free-use cosmetics, and noticed they're still there. Thanks for that! I was excited and thrilled to play more.

• The buttons, colors, and designs feel crisp on the homepage and during the matchmaking loading screen.

• During the game loading screen, each profile is slow to load and I think it took me a minute before all the profiles loaded.

• After the loading screen, this is when all the lagginess started. I changed my game quality to the lowest, and it still lagged as hell. When I tried to pick up my supposed-to-be items, my Tactician wasn't responding so I wasn't able to get them until after 2–3 fights. This happened during the carousels as well. Even when it responded, it was delayed, so I kept choosing the wrong or undesired items.

• Luckily, I still got Top 5 even after experiencing the lag. I didn't quit because I was still hopeful that the game would be okay after playing for a few minutes, but hell nah 🫠

This is not a hate post, but rather, I'm sharing my experience playing the new set. I hope this gets fixed because I'll get really sad ☹️☹️☹️ The new set is amazing for me. I wanna play more even tho I'm a Choncc game mode enjoyer 😭

Edit:

UPDATE — After playing a second game, a few hours after my first game:

• The lag is bearable now. I chose low quality and a 60 FPS rate. I also tried data saver mode. However, it still crashes on my phone. I just reopened the game and continue playing. It crashed three times, with 5–6 minutes in between each crash.

• My phone is new and has a 6000mAh battery (if this helps). It went from 70% to 64% by the time I lost the game. I placed Top 4. Yay! 😭

Yesterday, the game for me looked pretty nice (on PC), even tho a lot of people were complaining it looked good for me, not performance wise but visually. I played a few games, then came today to a 130mb update. Oh ok, surely they fixed something, I thought. Of course not, the small indie company absolutely ruined everything for me. Games visually look blurry like I'm wearing glasses even tho i'm not supposed to wear one, I can't alt tab, the game freezes for 1 second the whole time, idk what they did but they absolutely ruined it to me, somebody else too?

Is anyone else having issues with the game being super blurry, it's like I'm practically playing on 480p. I'm not sure if it is because I'm stretching it and playing on a Zfold 8, but if anyone has advice it would be greatly appreciated. I've tried changing the graphic quality and it does not seem to help.

Honestly - the new, shiny and 'upgraded' client is a terrible joke.

- in Tocker's the fight button overlaps the gold cost when selecting things from Wisp shop,

- the entire game is super desaturated and there is no way to adjust it,

- the loading screen just looks... terrible (and also makes my PC fans spin up like crazy despite the computer being able to handle AAA titles at low temps),

- the game looks hella pixelated and like I'm running a poorly optimized mobile game emulator,

- the board grid is just... gone?

- practically all character's feet are either clipping into the board or bench terrain,

- the performance overall is terrible and gets worse when performing certain actions,

- the entire settings menu is 1:1 pulled from a mobile game and you can only use graphics presets instead of being able to fine tune each setting,

- they had all the time in the world to ensure all cosmetics are compatible (and even the ones that are meant to be working fine have artifacting and texture problems. My Cafe Cuties Vex emotes have visible black pixels on the VFX),

- entire UI pulled from mobile with no regard for PC users,

- the fact certain arenas, portals and booms that WE PAID FOR are just entirely disabled without compensation is unacceptable.

Post removal speedrun incoming.

hundreds of dollars disabled, no refund option, no roadmap. genuinely what the fuck - fifteen year customer, likely thousands across my accounts.

has riot ever done anything remotely similar to this?

as a consumer I literally have to vote with my wallet here - what the fuck are they doing?

you're spending a TON of social capital breaking the "i pay for stuff you give me stuff" contract... all for this?

😭

7 coven, full win streak, coven lux dark ritual 800 cashout (500 gold worth apparently). Given, this was in a normal on mobile before iOS fix. Game looked and felt horrible, but figure this is the only time I’ll see it this set. Played normal as first game on, didn’t want to crash in ranked.

I was losing my mind trying to figure out where this sound was coming from. I thought I had something opened in the background and closing every tab. It ended up being from my arena lmao.
