Google killed Gemini (as I think)

The main problem it's AUTO MODE (which means that developers changed something, and we don't know - is it was the main change, or they accidentally broken something and it's bug)...

Before the change there was choice between: 3.5 Flash-Lite, 3.6 Flash, 3.1 Pro (+ option for extended thinking).

So now Gemini is always on Auto check (which is actually 3.5 Flash-Lite) + 3 modes: Low, Medium, High.

Also, as I mentioned from response details - no matter what you will choose, it's always staying on 3.5 Flash-Lite (Auto):

1. Low (checked) = 3.5 Flash-Lite (fast mode).

2. High (checked) = 3.5 Flash-Lite (extended mode)

3. No matter which model I've select ("Low" or "High") It's keep staying on Auto (3.5 Flash-Lite).

It's just impossible to change mode on 3.6 Flash or 3.1 Pro (+ extended option), they just removed this option, and now you can only use it on Auto (which, as I mentioned before, is 3.5 Flash-Lite) with Low/Medium/High demand switch

So even ChatGPT now works better than this (which I hate because it answers in a jagged manner)

Anyway, I don't know what to do... Gemini has undergone major changes for the worse, it was my favorite AI due to the very strong PRO mode I was needed for really smart response. It was really helpful. Now Gemini is useless (because 3.5 Flash-Lite not thinking, or thinks superficially)

Add server selection back (at least for 100+ rank)

I really think the game needs a server selection option, at least for high-rank matchmaking (100+).

I understand that the player population at these ranks isn't huge. That's fine. I'd rather wait a little longer than get thrown onto a server literally on the other side of the continent.

What happened?

We queued as a trio:

Logically, the match should have been hosted in Frankfurt or Moscow, where all three of us would have around 20–60 ms ping.

Instead... The game decided to host us on a server in Russia's Far East (Primorsky Krai).

All three of us ended up playing with 100–150+ ms ping.

This makes absolutely no sense.

Why was server selection removed?

Games like Dota 2 let players choose their preferred servers.

I've also heard that Mobile Legends used to have server selection as well.

So why remove a feature that solves exactly this problem?

"The matchmaking knows better."

Clearly... it doesn't.

I've had this happen 2-3 times in my last ~25 games at 100+ rank, where I get placed on a server thousands of kilometers away for no apparent reason.

This isn't a one-time bug anymore.

My suggestion

Please bring back server selection, at least for players above 100+ rank.

If the matchmaking can't reliably choose a reasonable server, let players decide.

I genuinely believe many high-rank players would appreciate having this option. Playing competitive matches with 150+ ms simply isn't enjoyable when everyone could have had 20–60 ms on a more appropriate server.

Allow players to queue with only 1 preferred role

When you introduced role/lane selection, the community wanted the ability to choose their main role, but instead we got forced selection of two roles.

Honestly, I don't understand the problem with letting players queue for just one single role.

  • If I want to play my comfort role (Mid for me), I'm ready to wait longer in queue - that's completely fair.
  • If I don't want to wait, I can just select 2 roles like right now.

Forcing players to pick 2 roles feels really bad. I know how to play other lanes, but after 10000+ games I've found my most comfortable and strongest role - Mid. Even professional esports players are mostly one-role specialists. Yes, they can play other roles decently when needed, just like me, but they practice and perform best on their main role.

Sometimes I also feel like playing Roam, and that's fine too. But now we constantly see situations like Novaria in Gold lane, Miya in Roam, etc. - because players are forced into roles they don't want and don't practice.

Please, Moonton - give us the choice to queue with minimum 1 preferred role. Players who want faster queues can still pick 2 or 3, but one-trick and comfort players should also have the freedom to choose.

ADD LOW PRIORITY QUE

Let the animals who can't normally play go practice, or have their integrity points deducted for low quality gameplay, so they play with their own kind of trash.

As soon as I reach a 60% win rate, everytime game starts throwing absolute degenerates into my team.

Why the fuck doesn't the game punish them for a 40-45% win rate, but forces me to boost them? How does your fucked-up star protection system even let them into high ranks? You're fucking clowns.

I can’t even edit photos of myself anymore. It's gotten ridiculous. It generate some other people, USELESS AI.

I end up spending 10-20 minutes just trying to "trick" the prompt into doing something close to what I want, and even then the results are poor.

So yeah, I'm done with Nano Useless Banana 2.

Can anyone recommend a better, higher-quality AI, but without all the censorship (or close to this)?
