League of Legends Updating Graphics, New 5v5 Map Coming
by Brian Leahy, Sep 09, 2010 1:40pm PDT
PC Gamer is teasing some details about Riot Games' League of Legends getting an updated "art style." A few teaser images are available on PC Gamer's website, but full details will be contained within this month's issue of PC Gamer US.
Though PC Gamer claims this is a change to the game's "art style" it appears to be an increase in fidelity and detail, not a change in style.
Additionally, the issue will have details about a new 5-versus-5 map coming to the free-to-play, microtransaction supported game. A new champion will also be revealed. Fans of LoL will want to look out for the next issue of PC Gamer for more.

This graphical "update" looks horrible. Between this, the fact the servers are down 50% of the time I want to play, and the fact Riot seems to have *NO* idea what the tier list is is making me considering quitting LoL. I kind of regret spending as much money as I did on it. Riot really needs to mature as developers if they want to stay in this business. They're charging absolutely outrageous prices for content I feel like *I* could make in an afternoon, forget the quantity-over-quality champion design choices and the ridiculous lack of maps.

Although maybe drawing the extra tris won't be so bad if I turn off all of the normal/specular/env maps in the settings.
