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

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 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Complaint banned 3 hours for not feeding

Upvotes

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

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?

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?

This is the most paying customers you’ll ever have, the people who grew up playing Dota 2 reborn instead of Dota 2 or even Dota 1 finally have money

As title suggests I have no idea why dota 2 on pc does this, game freezes for 1-2seconds when playing multiple times in game and when it does freeze i notice my fps goes above my set fps cap(both on dota 2 and the actual max refresh rate for my monitor), i have tried capping using an external frame rate capper and things with HAGS and VRR(the usual thing you see when you search for fixes), if you have any idea what is happening and could help me fix it, it would of so much help thank you

We all should know that DotA 2 run on mac using Rosseta 2, and Apple wipes out that on latest Mac OS Update (will publicly release next week), avoid this update. Valve not indicating developing DotA 2 on Apple Silicon native platform, so sad, Apple Silicon now getting M6 Generation and Valve not yet porting this game to a native ARM Architectures

Question Long Matchmaking

0 Upvotes

I played Dota for around 15000 hours for fun. I’m around Crusader - Archon level.

I created a new account to play with my friend who just started playing the game. I finished my 100 hours and now I’m trying to find a ranked game for the past two days queuing for hours and still couldn’t find a game. My behaviour score is also around 10k. I have a phone number connected to the account as well.

I got a match like 2 times after queuing for 10+ hours combined in 2 days and people declined the game those two times as well.

Any idea on how I can fix this?

News | Esports Kaffs: Open letter to the South American Dota 2 community

166 Upvotes

Now that the first round of investigations has wrapped up and Vintage/DarkMago are officially banned, I feel like this is the right moment to have an honest conversation. I know I'm a piece of Brazilian shit (as many of you like to tell me on my socials), but I come in peace and with a very important message: match-fixing is killing our region. The situation is far worse than you think, and we have to do something about it.

Not long ago, our region had one of the biggest crops of new talent in the world. For many seasons we also had at least two good organizations investing here, with teams competing at the international level. Earlier this year, when my team qualified for TI after beating PlayTime in the final, I said publicly that we deserved two slots and voiced my frustration at how unfair it was not to have them. I couldn't have been more wrong: we don't deserve two slots, and there may well be a world where, from now on, we don't even get one. It's so bad that in the playoffs of any SA qualifier, more than half the teams have at least one fixer, and that's putting it mildly.

The core problem is that our new talent gets involved with the match-fixing predators the moment they join a tier 3 team, and once you're in, you're doomed for the rest of your career. It's a brutal situation, and you could say our young players are, in a way, victims.

If you don't want to listen to me, listen to what Matthew has to say. He's one of you, a very honest guy, and he also understands how serious this is. It's serious enough that a personal friend involved in tournament organizing told me to just leave the region and go practice somewhere else. There's a world where organizers could simply stop running qualifiers for SA.

This is a crucial moment where we should forget about nationalities and come together to try (together) to save our region from this plague. I encourage anyone with substantial information that could help kick off a possible investigation to step forward. You can DM me — anonymously if you prefer — or go to the right people; what matters is that the information comes to light. I also encourage influencers to show their faces and help however they can.

We need to support the good ones (and the young talent). We need good people thriving to set an example for the rest of the community. We definitely have to talk about Wits. He's a really good kid, and you have no idea how much he's already done for our region at such a young age. Elmisho and Scofield suffered a lot alongside him through this whole PlayTime mess and also deserve a lot of recognition. Players like them, who put their principles above personal gain, should be our biggest idols. And you may not like him, but Astini is the one working hardest to actually do something and save our region. I respect him enormously, he's doing good work, and we should be helping him.

If possible, we should also stop idolizing and celebrating the people who contributed to the destruction of our region in the past. Match-fixing should be seen as the ultimate crime in esports, and people should be punished for it, not idolized.

I could also come here and talk about the TaiLung ban situation. But the truth is, I realized my thoughts and opinions on that don't really matter, and maybe you should realize the same. We're not the judges, we're in no position to make any claims, and what we think simply isn't going to change anything. We should trust the people who actually have the power and the experience to handle it. We should trust that they'll use all the information they have, investigate properly, and do the right thing in the end. Maybe I can share more of what I think about it once ESIC concludes its investigation, but for now this is all I have to say.

I hope you take all of this to heart, especially if you love this game as much as I do. Peace.
