DOTA 2 Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

    @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.

  • 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?

  • yannick93479000 yannick (@yannick93479000) reported

    @ImmortalFaithd @DOTA2 @dota2updates No friends, no problems..

  • 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 ***.

  • Mrsolotulip TD - MrSoloTulip (@Mrsolotulip) reported

    Honestly the whole smurfing/boosting problem in Dota 2 will be the end of the game, honestly how they can sit in game chat and say they aren't doing anything wrong is beyond me ruining the game for others! VALVE DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT ITS RUINING YOUR GAME @DOTA2 #dota2 #valve

  • aliftriantoo Alif (@aliftriantoo) reported

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

  • reibm_ Rei (@reibm_) reported

    @KheZu Valve didnt put a single penny of the TI 2020 BP, after all they earned with it and there was no TI. And people still wanted to argue with me that there was no issue with that. This Major prize pool is hilarious @DOTA2

  • 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... :(

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • NggaRam Don_Romadhon (@NggaRam) reported

    @DOTA2 server down ?

  • MilesTurner93 Miles (@MilesTurner93) reported

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

  • 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!

  • JoeMT0 Joe (@JoeMT0) reported

    @ElliottVenczel @DOTA2 Had the same problem with overwatch

  • alphadealr alphadealr (@alphadealr) reported

    @DOTA2 @valvesoftware Fix your reporting system and your low priority stuff. No one can learn the game if you can get reported and have to play in low priority, in all honesty you should just remove low priority altogether, its stupid and ruined your game.

  • bin_aliyan ffhyras (@bin_aliyan) reported

    @DOTA2 Fix dota pls always crash hew²

  • Haoshoku river (@Haoshoku) reported

    @ElliottVenczel @DOTA2 specific games aren't the problem, humans are, there is nothing that involves humans that is non toxic, as most humans are trashy scum

  • alphadealr alphadealr (@alphadealr) reported

    @DOTA2 @DOTA2 you guys need to fix your low priority system. I have been playing by the rules now for a long time and people can randomly report you so you get put in the low priority queue. Fix your game man, 75 minutes in a queue because no one plays anymore.

  • alimx3601 alimx360 (@alimx3601) reported

    @DOTA2 When game is ready and want starting game dota crash and comback to windows . I play before 60 fps and high setting Sry for valve cant fix this problem

  • Saadi97070551 Saadi (@Saadi97070551) reported

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

  • MoodAndMelody Nick (@MoodAndMelody) reported

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

  • Haoshoku river (@Haoshoku) reported

    @Ratapai_ @ElliottVenczel @DOTA2 soloq is still the way to go & in general it's not that hard to fix matchmaking & make it reasonably fair, just have to make individual impact & skillceiling high enough to carry deadweight and put a ranking system in place that doesnt just factor in win:loss but also performance

  • rushi__rami Rushi Rami (@rushi__rami) reported

    Smurfing is the real issue dota 2 should be solving @DOTA2 @DOTABUFF @DotaCinema

  • wrsndm_ 老余 (@wrsndm_) reported

    @baipi_funny @DOTA2 @valvesoftware Apparently as a result of his serious mental issues shown in his words

  • 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! ...

  • 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.

  • tujavie1 tujavie (@tujavie1) reported

    @DOTA2 Fix ur matchmaking

  • theysayanonim minonA (@theysayanonim) reported

    @DOTA2 not opening on Linux. Please fix it.

  • Jenjen85165306 Jenjen (@Jenjen85165306) reported

    @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

  • theysayanonim minonA (@theysayanonim) reported

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