Just one thing. I like to watch my friends play, but the camera's champ lock seems a bit iffy. Couldn't it be just selecting someone makes it lock-on?

Detached Player Controls:

Fast-forward, play/pause, ect.., should not be attached to the scoreboard. I feel it should be its own window so that you can hide the large, obtrusive scoreboard and still have access to the player controls.


Adjustable/Customizeable UI windows:

It would be nice to be able to move, adjust the opacity and resize each of the individual UI components. The scoreboard for instance is enormous and obtrusive, but it would be nice to see it off to the side and perhaps a reduced opacity at my discretion.

How do you access the spectator mode option menu without using the keyboard / using the mouse only?

We'd love to hear your feedback as you dive into the feature and watch LoL matches.

Feel free to discuss or suggest anything Spectator related, but here are some areas you might consider for feedback:

General
  • Let us know if interactions or functionality did not work as you expected.

Directed Camera
  • Does it show you what you want to see during a match?
  • How do you feel about the camera motion/movement?
  • Have you switched from Directed to Manual camera control? Thoughts about the process?

Featured Games (on the landing page)
  • How do you feel about the selection of games?
  • Thoughts about the process of choosing and getting into a game?

Drop-In (off your Friend List)

  • Thoughts about the process of getting into a game?

Spectator HUD
  • Thoughts about the information displayed? Too much? Info missing?
  • Thoughts about using Timeshift Controls?

BUGS!
Thanks and get Spectating!
i love the new spectator mode and i just have a few suggestions/reports

1 my chat when i go to spectate defaults to off and it forces me to turn it on every time, idk if this is a but or not but id appreciate it having a *sticky* option where it can stay on

2 it would be amazing to have a menu showing you the map and champions of a game before you actually commit to loading it. i get so annoyed when i see a bunch of champs im interested in on a team and then get through all of the loading and summoning screens just to see its a dominion match

3 is there any way we can get the champ display bar that shows your summoner/ult cd moved to the in game client not just spectator mode it seem so much more efficient than the current teammate health bars

4 also on the said bars i thought it would be need if you added different visual effects that showed status changes as well. like a frosty picture if they are slowed or a the stun.fear icon over there face if they are stunned or feared.

My only complaint is that I would, at the very least, like to have the option to be able to see my friends list and chat with friends while spectating. Too often I will be waiting for a friend to finish a game and choose to spectate a game while I wait, often times their own game, and then have them finish while I'm still spectating and now they're waiting on me. They have even tried to reach me through messaging but I cannot hear them because I'm in spectator mode. I do not see why friends can message you while you're in a real game and yet cannot message you while you're spectating.

Hello!

Allow Number of Spectators To Be Visible
I have been thinking lately, that it would be cool to see the number of spectators watching your game somewhere in the screen.

Purpose

Players: Can feel the crowd watching thus generating enthusiasm for better gameplay.

Spectators: Will notice how many others are watching the game and want to stay/leave based on popularity. Popular spectated games are the ones that play most skillfully.


I used to play on an emulator called GGPO, and the number of spectators will always motivate me to play better or stay watching other play. I think this would be a great addition to LoL!

Ive been bothered by this a lot, when a long range spell is being casted (caitlyn's ult, lux's ult, nidalee's spear, etc) we dont care about the caster, we care about the target. If its it a projectile follow it, if its aoe follow the other team.
