I think you're better off playing.

I've seen many people who, through ruining game after game, and setting their error reports into Riot, got huge bugs in the game fixed. We're here to beta test. So test ^^

Does anyone know when the patch is going to come out to fix this?

I am also having this same problem.

When the game starts loading at the screen where it shows everyone's hero, the LoL client will come next and "stop responding". Then a few seconds it'll say I've crashed.


EDIT: I had to change my anti-virus from "strict" to "normal". Now it works. Try playing around with your anti-virus guys.

I've tried minimizing the window and also lowering my virus protection but nothing seems to be working. Any other suggestions?

I haven't noticed this problem when I'm doing practice games. It is rather disheartening.
System specs: 1.6ghz Intel Core Duo, Win XP MCE, 2 GB RAM, 945 Chipset Intel (I'm running on a laptop)

I turned off my antivirus, but that doesn't seem to be what's affecting the gameplay. I'm not going to make any guesses on why it crashes.

I got mine working :') All I had to do was uninstall and reinstall the game. Hope that helps anyone :')
