    @DOTA2 did you lack of money????, because your Singapore major look like our "TURNAMEN KAMPUNG", go fix it before the rest of us coming here

  • crabbynerd crabby (@crabbynerd) reported

    @netflix trusts their automatic video quality so much that they don't give any option to choose your preferred quality. So 2nd Episode of @DOTA2 anime is only loading in 240p for me. Every other show loads in 4K without any issues. Guess who has to look for "alternatives" now?

  • AurynMinh Auryn Minh (@AurynMinh) reported

    @DOTA2 Pro players have smurfs. Are you going to force them to only play on their main accounts from now on? It looks like you'll only be enforcing your regulations on those who aren't already at the top. That's what hurt your community. The problem will repeat itself shortly.

  • mikezheng03 Mike Zheng (@mikezheng03) reported

    @DOTA2 Fix your server because there is constant daily lag that caused disconnect from the the day at the same time every day

  • Dankster_TV Dankster (@Dankster_TV) reported

    @Newegg I've have had a @SteelSeries Sensei RAW for damn near a decade now. Never had an issue after 5 years of @DOTA2 and 5 years of other gaming. I'll buy another one IF it ever dies

  • alimx3601 alimx360 (@alimx3601) reported

    @wykrhm @DOTA2 FIX YOUR GODDAMN DOTATV PLEASE ITS BEEN LIKE 100 YEARS AND STILL NOT FIXED

  • MoodAndMelody Nick (@MoodAndMelody) reported

    @jhordanrizal @DOTA2 Or, you know, unprecedented events causing problems.

  • Tomzlongdong TomzLongdong (@Tomzlongdong) reported

    @DOTA2 fix your matchmaking. I'm 7k hours xp and you pair me with 4 people who scream at each other and spin in circles while the other team just rolls us again and again. So bad. I shouldn't be matched with ppl just starting!

  • Saadi97070551 Saadi (@Saadi97070551) reported

    @DOTA2 @netflix @NXOnNetflix Why is it so laggy? Almost feels like an fps lag. Should be at least 60fps.

  • suskatti Suskatti (@suskatti) reported

    @DOTA2 Gotta say really impressive changes. The direction you guys (Dota2 team) have taken this seems to be helpful for new players. Although this also means the bots need to be updated when certain things such as item recepies change, been a problem in the past. Nicework! ...

  • aliftriantoo Alif (@aliftriantoo) reported

    Why is my matchmaking so broken? Teammates ruined my game😭 @DOTA2

  • Magmathrower Magma (@Magmathrower) reported

    @PolanskyMarco @AceDota @DOTA2 Obviously not everyone can be a total saint and pretend there's no element of ridicule involved. I certainly am not one. The problem is toxic players, not the tipping system. There is no solution to toxicity - it will exist forever. And honestly a tip is just harmless banter

  • theysayanonim minonA (@theysayanonim) reported

    @DOTA2 not opening on Linux. Please fix it.

  • NotRobParkerFS1 Jeff Sucker (@NotRobParkerFS1) reported

    The problem with @DOTA2 @IceFrog is they trying so hard to balance the game by nerfing other heroes instead of making all the heroes stronger.. they making some heroes unusable in the process.

  • Mrinalneo Mrinal Mendon (@Mrinalneo) reported

    @AceDota @DOTA2 It makes em mald. Throws them off their game. Just look at OG. Them spamming global voice chats irritated teams. I think it's perfectly healthy as there is no abuse involved. There are bigger problems in Dota 2 that need way more attention than this.

  • BeeBrains Ring Ring Beephone (@BeeBrains) reported

    @AceDota @DOTA2 I mean, you could say the same about voicelines...I don't have a problem with tipping or voicelines though. I think they add a more PG way of trash talking than all-chatting something actually toxic.

  • Alleckinskywalk Alleckinskywalker (@Alleckinskywalk) reported

    @DOTA2 your ******* matchmaking is a ******* joke and you guys cant fix that bullshit properly

  • willyoujeremy girtholomeo (@willyoujeremy) reported

    @DOTA2 fix the stupid ld divine bug and return my mmr

  • OkDamage OkDamage (@OkDamage) reported

    @NXOnNetflix @DOTA2 I love Dota 2. Its sad that I am having mini freeze that makes the game unplayable, it happens every now and then and oftentimes during fights. Its super frustrating because I haven't been able to find a solution, even though I have no issue playing any other game.

  • Alleckinskywalk Alleckinskywalker (@Alleckinskywalk) reported

    @DOTA2 fix your ******* stupid matchmaking its so dogshit

  • JonDasing Jonathan Das (@JonDasing) reported

    How many developers would it take for @DOTA2 to fix its broken matchmaking algorithm? Even the Singularity would crash trying to answer this. I'm now hoping the influx of newbies after watching Dragon's Blood will further aggravate the situation. Greatest game my ***.

  • theysayanonim minonA (@theysayanonim) reported

    @DOTA2 Hello dota. Can you fix problem "Dota can't open on Linux OS". 😒

  • Ip0dtats Matt Claros (@Ip0dtats) reported

    @DOTA2 game always crashed... anybody else having the same issue?.. everyone on the lobby says the same happened to them... :(

  • shad0w_wa1k3r shad0w_wa1k3r (@shad0w_wa1k3r) reported

    @DOTA2 Awesome, now fix the DPC and support low tier teams and regions so that I can come back!

  • Czechyoself624 Dušan (@Czechyoself624) reported

    @iNsan1a @AceDota @DOTA2 That's a pretty ******* bad response. This sounds like a serious issue, yet you respond with ridicule and whataboutism? I was expecting far more from you. Then again everyone who worked in Dota knows pros are just irresponsible manchilds

  • prasham_jain Prasham Jain (@prasham_jain) reported

    @wykrhm The recent @DOTA2 update crashes the game as soon as it launches for Ubuntu. It is same as the last time around 17Dec 7.28. This was patched with a small update afaik. Please fix it asap. Thanks in advance!
