DOTA 2 Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • deadheaddabz MistaDabzMcGee (@deadheaddabz) reported

    @IceFrog @DOTA2 Should if possible allow in custom lobbies let admin save games in pause. That way if there is issues that call for remake you can load up the saved pause file and resume. Would save a lot of time in delays due to player or server side bugs/problems.

  • pdx_mavs Brian (@pdx_mavs) reported

    @alysonlucas1337 @DOTA2 I was getting 80-100 before the patch and after I’m getting 10-20 but somehow in your big brain, the patch isn’t the problem. So what is the problem then genius? Stop simping for valve in public

  • vanvanevans Evan (@vanvanevans) reported

    @pdx_mavs @DOTA2 Patch not the problem.same performance before and after patch.why don't you stop sucking your own **** and start to looking for what's wrong with your pc. Stop sucking your own **** in public.

  • deadheaddabz MistaDabzMcGee (@deadheaddabz) reported

    @IceFrog @DOTA2 There should be a server auto save feature for DPC games. That way if there is issues that call for remake you can load up the saved pause file and resume. Would save a lot of time in delays due to player or server side bugs/problems.

    Glitch/bug when confirming match. If one person doesn't confirm and we miss the queue, every queue afterwards won't make it pass confirmation and we have to restart Dota2 and/or Steam. It's been 3 days straight. Please fix @DOTA2 @Steam

  • crusty_real TheRealCrustyDemon (@crusty_real) reported

    @DOTA2 I just love still playing Herald rank vs a random 34-1-4 Windranger/Tinker/Arc/OD in almost every game. Face it, your game is broken... so broken.

    Dear @Dota2, my account was recently restricted due to a hacker using forbidden scripts. As a long-time player and fan who's spent thousands on the game, I'm hoping for your help to resolve this issue. Please assist me in removing the restriction so I can continue playing. #Dota2
