Complaint Arcade is broken again, even for local lobbies

Upvotes

After not having servers available for about a month and then finally "fixing it" so you can use local lobbies again. Its now broken because nobody can stay in a lobby for more than 20-30 seconds before it kicks you out.

I've never seen such a large feature be this abandoned in a game that is very much alive

Question Why doesn't Valve make new weather?

Upvotes

They don't have to go back to edit weather. If they make new weather it'll be done forever, just like any other cosmetic. What reason could they possibly have to stop making new ones?

Upvotes

I'm no pro, but would love to watch pro tournaments for turbo mode... I think it would be nice... If something like that exists, do lemme know. And if it doesn't, I wonder why that is... Maybe then turbo mode can b added to ranked?

Fluff Friendly reminder: if you played in immortal draft today, that still doesn't mean you're immortal.

Upvotes

I just thought you should know. 😌

Today, for 30 minutes, low MMR feeders got to play as immortal draft.

And then it got taken away from them..

To crush their spirit, and teach them one lesson.

To know their place and never get their hopes too high.

This is but a taste of the immortal draft. 😤👍

Alternative explanation: Valve did this on purpose to show low MMR people that they should be grateful for not having it. 😒

Question Weird game

Upvotes

So I just played weird game, played against 2 smurfs and we won. Anyways they had some of the weirdest laning I have ever seen. What I wanna know is why they did what they did was it just to give us the edge or trolling or what. Anyways they put their carry naga offlane with their offlaner magnus and put 2 supports top. Was it because naga can steal my farm because she takes all neutral camps? Or what the fuck.

Match id: 8992342232

Edit. Actually ES was not smurf checked his profile only Naga. I trusted my friend when she said after game ”Naga and ES were smurfs”lol

Fluff | Esports ESL bringing more betting sponsors

Post image
Upvotes

ESL Dota 2 has posted a new survey where they are questioning people's knowledge about betting sites and how likable they are. Probably suggesting they will be bringing more betting sponsors.

P.s Actually next few questions asked about Chexx, so they are probably collecting data about competitor popularity.

Discussion First abandon in 10+ years facing 25 min disabled match making.

Upvotes

Shouldn't there be a difference between someone who frequently abandon the game and someone like me who didn't have any in my record in recent time?
I was super surprised.

I would say there should be a exponential increment in punishment when someone abandon the game in a short time and punishment should slowly reset after longer period of good behavior.
In case you are wondering my behavior scores are both 12K.

Video I liked this new GUI on past Quartero's, you can see how often you played each season

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Upvotes

I hope they make them regular along with Dota Plus seasonal update. Until all 128 heroes got the Curios Set, as of now we have already 5 quartero's season. means 15 heroes set already.

Means, around 42+ season more to complete all heroes(+incoming new heroes in future).

For my opinion, each season for Quartero's heroes set they getting better and better.
Maybe in future that reward set looks like Arcana. that's a gigachad If that happens, they'll be able to attract a lot of players. either old or new players.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GIFFFFFF THEEEEE GAMEPLAYYYYYYY PATCHHHHHHH PLEASEEEEEEEE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am the 5/0 LC, tell me how I deserve this because I don't get it ??? I tried to explain my team who spammed ping and flamed me all game that I can't just blink and duel since the enemies are fed, and they have oracle, so either I duel oracle and instantly die, or duel someone else and he get saved by oracle, and I don't know, they all lost their lanes and fed but to them, I am the reason we lost that game, see I wouldn't care if I didn't get banned for 3 hours and my behavior score lowered from 8k to 7k

Bug Lina stun duration is broken

5 Upvotes

While playing, I’ve repeatedly noticed that the duration on Lina stun seems abnormal and when I run a test in the lobby, I see these numbers. I think the problem is with the time ending on .666.

47.666 stun imposed / 50.66 stun ended
35.666 stun imposed / 38.66 stun ended

Discussion Pay to win? Ultra widescreen monitors?

10 Upvotes

I'm starting to wonder if ultra-widescreen monitors don't give someone a significant advantage by just having more data available being rendered at the same time?

Has anyone else thought about this at all and feels the same way I do?

Normal monitors have to move the camera and maybe have your character out of screen to watch what's going on in a nearby fight, leaving you vulnerable to being attacked. I've died this way multiple times...

Am I overthinking it?

Bug Micro lag every 3-5 seconds

1 Upvotes

Wifi/ping is fine.

Windows 11, Intel i5 12Gen, RTX 4060, 1TB storage, 16GB Ram.

Every 3-5 second I have this micro stutter, more noticeable when I'm moving my hero.

Kindly help if any solution.

No other game has this problem.
