Dota 2 party update

Dota 2 party update

Today’s update focuses on improving the matchmaking experience with the restoration of Solo Queue, the addition of Phone Linking, and multiple other adjustments.

Quality matchmaking is a core component of an enjoyable Dota session, and today’s changes work to address several issues that can affect the player experience when queuing for a game.

LINKED PHONE NUMBER

The first major change is that players must register a unique phone number to their account in order to queue for Ranked matches.

Players using multiple accounts create a negative matchmaking experience at all skill brackets, so our goal is to add just enough friction to this process that the number of players doing this will be noticeably reduced. Having more players using their primary accounts will have a positive effect on both Ranked and Unranked Matchmaking.

There will be a two-week grace period from today during which players have time to register a number, but starting on May 4th, accounts without a registered number will no longer be eligible for Ranked play. If a phone number is removed from an account after registration, a new number can be added, but there will be a three-month waiting period before the removed number can be registered on a new account. This is to prevent using the same number on multiple accounts. Online services that provide phone numbers are not allowed.

With the return of the Solo Queue, solo players who enter Ranked Matchmaking can now choose to be matched only with other solo players. Any player who selects this option will be placed into matches where all ten players are queuing solo.

Starting today, if a player’s Solo MMR is higher than their Party MMR, queuing in a party will result in the matchmaker assigning a higher MMR to that player. Effectively, these players will search for a match as if their MMR were halfway between the Solo and Party MMR values.

While the current Party MMR number generally reflects the likelihood that you’ll win a given match correctly, we’ve found that when a Solo MMR is dramatically higher than a Party MMR, the match becomes extremely volatile, resulting in an unpleasant and uncompetitive experience for both teams.

Simply having an even chance to win over the long run does not necessarily correlate to having competitive matches, but this change will make it so the matchmaker is able to take into account both the party teamwork skill component and the individual capability of the players on both teams. With both teams having this same mechanic applied to them, the chance for each team to win over a large sample will still be the same as before, but with reduced volatility on a per-match basis.

This update also includes several changes intended to remove undesirable behavior from the matchmaking pool.

First, being marked for low-priority matches now results in a duration-based ban from the Ranked queue, in addition to the current game-count-based low priority requirement. The ban will start at a low threshold of a few hours, and increase up to four days for players who are very frequently in low priority.

Next, it should go without saying that while the wide variety of playstyles that Dota players bring to a given match will always be welcome, intentionally ruining games for other players is never condoned. To help address concerns in this area, we’ve also added better detection for clear cases of intentional feeding, and will be applying stricter punishments to those who violate this rule.

Finally, we’ve also added detection for users that are botting, and with this update have issued a permanent ban to a large number of recently-detected bot accounts. This should help resolve several areas in which these bot accounts have a negative effect on the experience of the Dota community.

Ranked Matchmaking will no longer be available in South Africa, India, and Dubai. We will update these servers as the unranked populations in these regions grow to the critical mass needed to be able to support splitting the user base into Ranked and Unranked queues.

While there are some players that used these servers for Ranked, the low populations made them prime targets for various Ranked Matchmaking abuses. For the time being, players in these regions will need to join Ranked Matchmaking queues in one of the other nearby supported servers.

Teams of the Next DPC Season: Part 2

Uncertainty is over and now confusion takes its place. Many notable rosters have decided to change organizations and are going to represent a different tag. With so many heavy changes the questions remains: where do the fans go? Do they keep being loyal to the team or to the players?

Virtus. pro — epileptick1d | No[o]ne | Resolut1on | Save – | Solo

Virtus. Pro is finally settled, at least for the first round of the DPC. The only remaining players from the legendary roster are VP. No[o]ne-♥ and VP. Solo , so the backbone is still there, giving fans a bit of hope.

The addition of Resolut1on as an offlaner is also a move that can pay off greatly. Roman is still among the most mechanically gifted players in the scene, though position three might take some time for him to adjust to. He is mostly known for his farming prowess, not for his playmaking capabilities. On the other hand, a player that typically overperforms at the International and gets charged by the crowd might be a right move for the organization with an underwhelming TI history.

The last pieces of the roster are both incredibly young and very new to the professional scene. VP. Save started his career in May, playing for FlyToMoon and so far d > VP. epileptick1d is even younger and even less experienced—Virtus. Pro is his first professional team. But he is consistently in the top of MMR leaderboards, currently being the first in the core list.

Great leadership, experienced playmakers and young talent on the flashy roles—this roster is reminiscent of Chinese rosters in its approach. Will it pay off for the former CIS powerhouse or will we see further reshuffles for the team? We don’t know, but it does look promising.

Gambit Esports — dream` | gpk | Shachlo | XSvamp1Re | fng

The team that almost made it to TI through the DPC and then faltered during the qualifiers might be back with a vengeance. Perhaps the most international squad of the CIS with players from four different countries is going to keep its captain in Gambit. fng who has already proved himself countless times.

The only other experienced player on the roster is Gambit. Shachlo who has a long history in Dota, but so far didn’t have a lot of success. Given the current trends of offlaners mostly being utility, there is an argument to be made that this role should be filled with sacrificial experienced players and Shachlo fits the description perfectly. He can be a playmaker, a frontliner and, given the experience, a great help for fng in terms of in-game coordination.

The last point is going to be incredibly important, given how the rest of the roster is filled with young, promising talent. The oldest of them, Gambit. XSvamp1Re , is a 21 years old player from Kazakhstan who previously played for The Pango in ESL One Mumbai. He will take over position four support role in the roster.

Gambit. gpk is best known for his run in the CIS qualifiers with Vega Squadron, where his team went undefeated in groups, but then couldn’t compete with the experience of Na’Vi in BO3 double elimination playoffs. He is an explosive mid who is currently the second highest MMR core in the European leaderboards.

The last player on the roster is going to be Gambit. dream` , who grew from the Empire’s academy teams “Hope” and “Faith”, before becoming a part of the main roster. While Empire didn’t look particularly impressive last season, it could be the same old problem with the lack of leadership in the region, rather than skill. Dream` currently holds the fifth position in the European core leaderboards and we believe that under the guidance of fng both him, XSvamp1re and gpk can grow into respectable and well-known players.

Ninjas in Pyjamas — Skiter | Gunnar | Universe | Biver | ppd

Once again NiP are rebuilding around NiP. ppd , this time with a mostly American squad. Peter is still among the most renowned NA captains who moved to Europe in the last DPC season and had decent success at Minor and Major tournaments. His TI9 run, however, was anything but successful, with a last place elimination during the group stage, so the change was needed.

On the new NiP he is going to be reunited with a former teammate he lifted the Aegis with — Universe . One of the most experienced veterans of the NA scene, Universe has been rather quiet after leaving EG last year. He will take over his iconic offlane role on the new squad and will hopefully return to his former form, where he could be considered the best in his position. Shifts in meta towards heavy utility offlaners can help him greatly in that regard.

NiP. Gunnar had an interesting and dramatic story last year, where he would often get kicked out of his teams by EternalEnvy. It is hard to tell whether it was skill or personality-related, but we hope his road to a potential TI this year is going to be less bumpy and he will get a chance to prove that there is still new talent in the NA region that can compete at the highest level.

NiP. Skiter will take over the hard carry position for the new roster. A relatively unknown Slovakian player has almost four years of experience in the professional scene, but most of it comes from playing against Tier 2 teams. His adjustment to playing higher level Dota is crucial for the success of the squad, considering how the rest of the roster, Gunnar included, lean towards space-creation and not outright carrying the game.

The final part of the squad is going to be Biver , who used to play for Na’Vi several years ago. It looked like it would be the high point of his career, but the Danish player refuses to give up on his dreams and comes back to prove himself once again. Unlike most position four supports, Biver is not greedy and not particularly flashy. In the current meta it can become a bit of a detriment for the squad, but perhaps the reliability is what Peter needs from his second support.

Alliance — Nikobaby | Limmp | 33 | Handsken | Fata

The new Alliance is an interesting team. You have Alliance. Fata and Alliance.33 who came directly from NiP, with former finally letting younger players take over the core roles. This duo should be quite impressive, given how 33 is still rated highly as one of the most versatile offlane players in the scene that can adapt to any situation and Fata has almost eight years of experience.

You also have Alliance. Limmp and Alliance. Handsken who have played together on different teams for so many years and have already played for Alliance previously. It’s hard to call them star players on their respective positions, but they’ve always managed to achieve stable results, no matter what roster they were on.

Finally, there is Alliance. Nikobaby who, we feel, is going to be the x-factor for the team. He’s been in the scene for a while, but never on a top team. This The International, however, he just exploded, becoming one of the scariest carry players in terms of stats. Yes, there is a bit of chaos and instability in him, but this team really needs it, given how the rest of the players are mostly praised for their consistency and versatility, rather than their ability to play their heart out on a good day.

It is hard to tell whether this Alliance is an upgrade over the old roster, but it certainly deserves at least some attention.

Team Liquid — miCKe | qojqva | Boxi | Taiga | iNSaNiA

Despite losing in the first round of the loser’s bracket, this team has caught the attention of many last year with their relentless and incessant improvement from tournament to tournament. Whether it was Loda’s influence or the players started gluing together better, but by the end of the year they were a team to be taken seriously and we don’t think that the change of organisation is going to change that.

Thread: Dota 2 doesn’t work with Mobility Radeon HD 4550 Switchable Graphics

Thread Tools

Display

• Linear Mode
• Switch to Hybrid Mode
• Switch to Threaded Mode

Radeon HD 4550 are outdated and not updated anymore. If you want graphic cards update you need to buy a new graphic from Radeon.

Buy radion 6xxx something. 5xxx are also being left out not being updated anymore.

ATI only updates the newest series like they always do.

Probably not an option as most notebooks the GPU cannot be upgraded. Or expensive, hard to find and or doesn’t work with other hardware.

It would be much easier and make more sense to purchase a new computer at that point

It’s ridiculous to require the LATEST cards for Dota 2 when broad compatibility was one of its goals. It’s meant to scale well with all setups, with the game being playable on low-end systems while looking great on high-end systems. Since it works with my crappy Intel graphics, I see no reason why it should skip anything in between.

I can play Crysis 2, Bulletstorm, Batman: Arkham City, etc. without any problems, all of which are much more demanding than Dota 2 on the lowest settings. I’m not complaining about not reaching the minimum requirements here, I’m complaining about the fact that my card is being SKIPPED.

Blue and Gray(Grey) Artifact on loading screen using Radeon HD 6870M

I am having what appears to be artifact similar to (if not the same) as SPARTAN-501 is describing while using a Radeon HD 6870M graphics card. Is this happening with all AMD based mobile graphics cards? I hope not, because I generally use AMD graphics and I would like to help in the beta process. At least for now I can tell the developers that my card is not currently working. I think the developers have the specs on this machine as it is the one I originally filled out the survey with, but I can give more information if needed. Let me know if I can help push this forward. An Image of my experience is below (A picture is worth a thousand words). DOTA2 Load Screen Artifact on 6870M. png

AMD provides drivers for normal cards all the way back to HD2000 series, I think. This guys problem is that he can’t use the standard driver that works with most mobility and all onboard/PCI x16 cards.

This is almost exactly the same as what I’m getting, the difference being that the menu buttons are visible on my screen. Update your graphics card if you can, and if you still get the artifact, this may be a much bigger issue than we originally thought. Think about it: a large portion of the community probably uses a Mobility Radeon card, and if a large portion of Mobility Radeon cards can’t run Dota 2, we’ve got a serious problem.

true. i hope the guys of dota 2 are working on it..alrdy sent them a pm.

I have a HD5650 mobilty and DotA2 runs without a hitch, no artifices or anything

You really don’t need a top of the line rig to run dota2 at all.

I have a 4gb ram, 1.6ghz dualcore Toshiba laptop fit with a HD5650 mobility card and I can run Dota2 perfectly with things like shadows and anti aliasing off. drops to around 23-25FPS in huge fights but that is more than playable

If you can set your laptop to use discrete graphic only, then you should be able to use standard drivers but at the cost of losing the ability to switch modes

This isn’t an option for everyone, unfortunately. Besides, having to change settings in the BIOS every day just to play Dota 2 is a bit of a hassle, don’t you think?

Well the problem has been resolved for me as I have updated through the Alienware. Trying to update the driver through AMD did not work at all. Could have been an easier process through Dell, but I found the right one after some digging. They had updated this driver in August so maybe that had the fix. All the same, I have not had this issue on any other games to include Portal (which I believe is from the same engine). Something to keep in mind Valve if you want to keep as many customers happy as possible. For those looking using my card (Radeon HD 6870M), the driver from Dell is called R308386.exe. Also this is an M17XR3 laptop in case that matters. I hope this gets fixed for the others.

Dota 2 game 2016 new

Dota 2 game 2016 new

25% от продаж боевого пропуска и его уровней идут в призовой фонд The International 2016.

Перед каждой игрой вы можете выбрать одну из трех стезей и соответствующее задание. Выполните его и одержите победу, чтобы получить боевые очки и допуск к следующим заданиям. Зарабатывайте боевые очки и получайте новые награды. Задание можно сменить на стадии выбора героя, чтобы оно подходило под нужды всех.

НОВОЕ: ТРЕХЗВЕЗДНАЯ СИСТЕМА РАЗРЯДОВ
У каждой точки на стезе есть три разряда сложности, за каждый из которых выдается свое количество боевых очков. Чтобы выполнить задание, достаточно любого разряда, но лишь за высший игрок получит максимальное число очков.

НОВОЕ: НОВЫЕ СТИЛИ ЗА ТРИ ЗВЕЗДЫ
Последнее задание на каждой стезе откроет соответствующую награду, а игроки, получившие по три звезды за каждое задание на стезе, получат новый стиль награды.

НОВОЕ: ДОПОЛНИТЕЛЬНАЯ СТЕЗЯ ЗАДАНИЙ
На 225-м уровне пропуска игроки получат не только особый предмет для Legion Commander, но и стезю заданий для нее. Прошедшие ее получат уникальное улучшение внешнего вида для этого предмета.

Раз в неделю вы будете получать фишки. Сделайте ставку, и если вы победите, фишки обратятся в дополнительные боевые очки. Оставшиеся с предыдущей недели фишки пропадут, так что делайте ставки смело!

НОВОЕ: Растущий азарт
Теперь игроки с боевым пропуском 119-го уровня получают 500 дополнительных фишек в неделю, на 235-м уровне дается еще 500, а на 395-м — 1000. Кроме того, все игроки, получившие любое их этих улучшений, смогут поставить до 500 фишек за игру.

Владельцы боевого пропуска смогут играть друг с другом, пытаясь достичь наивысшего потенциала. Сражайтесь не жалея сил и следите за своими успехами в таблицах лидеров по друзьям и по всему миру. Как высоко подниметесь вы?

По завершении гранд-финала The International 2016 вы получите трофей, на котором будет указан ваш максимальный рейтинг за этот сезон, а также возможность показывать этот рекорд в своем профиле весь следующий год.

Чтобы начать калибровку, заходите в рейтинговый подбор игр The International. Сыграйте 40 или больше игр, и сможете заменить свой обычный рейтинг сезонным после The International 2016.

Открывается сезон The International, и лучшие профессиональные игроки всего мира готовятся оставить след в результатах летних турниров. Скоро каждый сможет почувствовать волнение соревновательной игры на себе — стартует боевой кубок.

НЕСКОЛЬКО РАЗРЯДОВ, ЧЕТЫРЕ ДИВИЗИОНА
Во время запланированных заранее еженедельных событий участники могут собраться и поучаствовать в битве восьми команд до одного поражения. Команды играют против таких же умелых противников, сражающихся в одном из четырех географических дивизионов.

Все владельцы боевого пропуска также получат компендиум The International 2016. Помимо привычных предсказаний и профилей команд, в этом компендиуме появятся новые возможности, благодаря которым он станет самым интерактивным из выпущенных. А пока что получайте дополнительные боевые очки за предсказания на манильский мейджор.

Повышая боевой уровень, вы сможете крутить боевое колесо Рилай — а на нём есть наборы предметов, сокровищницы, курьеры. Чтобы победить, нужно просто раскрутить!

Вращение колеса можно заработать на 3, 8, 20, 26, 32, 42, 48, 53, 71, 83, 92, 107, 149, 164, 173, 182, 188, 345, 365, 385, 425, 445, 465, 485, 505, 545, 565, 585, 615, 645, 665, 685, 715, 745, 765, 795, 815, 845, 865 и 885 уровнях.

Dota 2 on Mac: Can your Mac run it?

Posted by Ric Molina | Jul 10, 2019

Dota Underlords may be the hot new game everyone is talking about, but Dota 2 is still one of the most played games in the world.

That’s right, in spite of being 6 years old now, the free-to-play MOBA from Valve is stronger than ever. In fact, Dota 2 is currently the second most played game in the world, with 450,000 concurrent players in one day.

The sequel to the infamous mod, Defense of the Ancients (DotA), Dota 2 pits two teams of five players against each other. Each team has to defend its own base while trying to destroy the enemies base.

You’re in control of a “hero” with unique abilities, and with more than one hundred to chose from, mastering your hero while playing as a team is a real challenge. This explains why MOBAs are so hard to master and why their community is so demanding (and borderline abusive with beginners).

Bottom line: It may not be as big as League of Legends, and Heroes of the Storm is still my personal favorite, but Dota 2 is still one of the best MOBAs you can play. With a 90 Metascore and 85% Positive reviews on Steam from over a million gamers, you can’t go wrong with this one.

Dota 2 Mac requirements

Before we go any further, these are the game’s Mac system requirements:

• OS: 10.9 or newer
• Processor: Intel Dual core
• Memory: 4 GB RAM
• Graphics: Nvidia 320M or higher, or Radeon HD 2400 or higher, or Intel HD 3000 or higher
• Network: Broadband Internet connection
• Storage: 15 GB available space

As you can see, this isn’t a demanding game by any means. Requiring merely an Intel HD 3000 means any modern Mac should be able to run it without breaking a sweat.

That said, for a long time gamers complained on Reddit that it was hard to get a smooth and consistent experience. We take it for a spin to see how it really runs on MacOS.

Can you run Dota 2 on Mac?

Unlike our official reviews on which we test a game on several Macs, we tested Dota 2 on the following macbine:

• MacBook Pro (13-inch, Late 2016): 2.0 GHz Intel Core i5, 8 GB RAM, Intel Iris Graphics 540 (1.5GB)

This Mac should be a fair compromise as it remains a modest machine because of its integrated graphics but it’s still recent enough to compare with most MacBook Pros out there.

We tested the game on 1280×800 and Medium settings using the Exclusive Fullscreen option (which results in much better graphics and performance):

We ran tests using both the OpenGL and Vulkan rendering API.

Using the still standard OpenGL option, our MacBook Pro runs the game at an average 51,8 FPS (frames per second), which is more than enough for most:

Be aware that FPS can significantly drop when several heroes get into a fight simultaneously. For that reason, it’s better to run the game using modest settings for an overall acceptable experience.

We did run the game using the Vulkan API (which you need to install before running the game) and found it to be as fast but more stable. In the words, we experience a similar 50 FPS on average performance but the drops were less pronounced.

That said, the game did crash a few times meaning Vulkan is not ready for primetime.

Bottom line: If you own a recent Mac, you should be able to easily run Dota 2 on Medium settings. And remember, the game is free-to-play so it can’t hurt to try it for yourself!

Remove Shiva’s Guard from Intelligence support heroes [ edit ]

• Those hero are generally cons >Shiva’s Guard is too luxury for support role, only super toxic support can build it
• low build rate in both pub and pro games(most of them has less than 0.1% build rate)
• They are ranged and have ranged abilities, they usually will not get too close to enemy(Hard to active Shiva’s ability)
• even they build it, their survivability still a problem.
• There are always better items for them to build
• And build such expensive item, buyback gold will increase about 400.
• Slow effort does not that obvious.

I think we should remove Shiva’s Guard from all of them. Should I do that? I am no so sure. –神乐坂桐樱 (talk) 21:42, 16 March 2019 (UTC)

The Future of eSports pages [ edit ]

Since no one reads/updates the tournament pages anymore, I’m gonna remove Tournaments box from the front page, and the Competitive Scene icon on top will eventually be replaced by a Lore icon. The International will still be covered with a page + big banner each year. If no one has any objections, I’ll be doing this soon. – Lemoncake (talk) 13:55, 17 February 2019 (UTC)

How about add some kind of redirection or notice to https://liquipedia. Remove dota 2 test from steam list net/dota2/ as that wiki mainly focus on the tournaments, teams and players. Maybe like the redirection in Perfect World to the wikipedia. Remove dota 2 test from steam list It looks like the wiki-writers who cares tournaments prefer to update the information on the Liquidpedia. Remove dota 2 test from steam list And maybe the users also prefer to check the results from Liquidpedia. Remove dota 2 test from steam list –神乐坂桐樱 (talk) 20:14, 11 March 2019 (UTC)

Or maybe we only save the pages for the most important tournaments(for example: the international of each years), the current active teams who join the majors and the TIs. And clean up/delete the information on the old majors(No one will read them) and disbanded teams (There are better places to check those things). And give brief information on the Dota2 Pro Circuits of current year and maybe previous years. We obviously don’t have enough writers to update them, but we can simply record the most important events on the history of Dota2 Tournaments. For interested new players, they can check this page to understand how the Dota2 esport works nowdays and get to know the famous teams or players that are discussed frequently by the dota2 community. When I was a new player, I want to check some pro-game videos and I indeed suck due to the long history of dota community. I was hoping someone can give me some advice which team or tournaments I should follow. I finally know the TIs and Dota2 Pro Circuits are the most important ones. –神乐坂桐樱 (talk) 21:48, 11 March 2019 (UTC)

This site’s owners probably don’t want us linking to a competitor site. As for the rest, we’ve never had anyone who can consistently update the esports stuff for more than a few months, the Competitive Scene page has only been updated like twice in two years, so I really doubt this will change. I don’t watch esports but I’ll still do a TI page each year, but the rest is just not worth the time. – Lemoncake (talk) 22:43, 11 March 2019 (UTC)

Problems with the Break Page [ edit ]

Hey there, the page of ‘Break’ is currently broken.

Attempting to make any edit, even writing ‘test’ in a body of text will cause the tables in the new version of the page to be broken.

There is currently some lua errors in one of the tables lower down.

I wanted to propose the following updates to the page:

Include Naga Siren’s new riptide passive.

Update the following catagories on the abilities section:

1: Borrowed Time, Starstorm, Death Pulse, Shadow Dance, Berserker’s Rage, Nether Swap, Counterspell, Retaliate, Blur, Take Aim

10: Essence Shift

11: Atrophy Aura

12: Curse of Avernus

2 Both passive components of Marksmanship are disabled by Break (including the splinter arrows granted by Aghanim’s Scepter ). Marksmanship’s particle effects still visually react on enemy presence.

10 Essence Shift still grants permanent bonuses on kill conditions when disabled.

11 Atrophy Aura does not grant permanent bonuses on kill conditions when disabled.

12 The debuff of Curse of Avernus does not grant ally attackers an attack speed buff when Abaddon is affected by Break.

If anyone could help me with this, I would be grateful.

PS: There is also a lua error on the ‘Cyclone’ page, just noticed.

I made your edit for you, everything looks fine to me – Lemoncake (talk) 03:21, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
