I'm sure Fear can translate that carry skills into some baller 5th position supporting. Clutch SD Disruptions, some Grand Magusing, and some Chaos Dunkery.

30 sec, so guessing dc then? And if so, were you able to reconnect? With my match, when we dc'd, I could not reconnect. I wonder if these matches are going to even count by tomorrow. Since with the lag and dc's, possibly lose much of our games.

We weren't getting full dc's. It was just freezing and that auto disconnect message in red would show up, and then it would unfreeze after 10-30 seconds. Actually, one of us got dced, not me though.


It's been this way for a couple of days now, just seems to be getting more frequent every day that goes by. But of course no update this week heh guys... T.T

Valve needs to get back from vacation... :[

Its really hard to play lately.


I'm more concerned about my own play and how i'm on a ridiculous losing streak than the current state of servers etc..


Me too. Im on a 7loss streak right now.

I've been on a huge losing streak - clearly the servers are causing me to lose.

Hey guys - I have two technical questions for issues that I've been having in dota2 that I wonder if anything know about:
1. Whenever I join my first game of a session of dota2 (either spectating or playing), my mic volume as a windows preference turns to 0. Any idea why?

2. Every third game I play in a session results in a pretty terrible crash to desktop at the beginning of the game (takes like 5 minutes or so to fully crash / exit). I heard something about how some Nvidia cards are having problems with dota2, is this something to do with it?

I got Nvidia and i get crashes VERY rarely. Have you tried re-installing? Have you checked Steam forums? Also few tips that has sometimes fixed problems on steam (different games though) for me.

Go to Steam Library, Dota 2, right click -> properties - Tabs open - Local files (tab) - Verify integrity of Game cache - let it run. Also i wonder if deleting local game content would be useful, haven't used that one that much, so not sure.

Also, i'm not sure, but disabling (Updates tab) steam cloud sync could help.

From steam:

If you have problems with missing models, video artifacts (purple and black checkerboards) or unexpected crashes, please follow the steps below to use Steam's Verify integrity of game cache feature to identify and replace corrupted Steam cache files.

It almost sounds as if 1-5 describes farm priority, and not an order of player skill.

Kuroky and Misery changed to 4/5 and looks like is working for them. Next support player: s4.

Hm, I've tried verifying my cache. There is also the possibility that either my harddrive or videocard is dying, so maybe its that. Its weird though, because it started happening 4-5 patches ago (and was directly after a patch being released)

Do you play other games? Have you experienced something similar while playing other stuff? You could do a benchmark/something that stresses your graphics card to test it out i guess. I'm not that pro to help you out much more.

Also, how about your drivers? Are they really up-to-date or not at all?

Anyone can translate this?


I'm no good but I think:
The new (perfect world) chinese league will be held in May-July, final held in Shanghai
And something about prize pool being 1million(?) Yuan
edit: Oh and April 19th will be a press conference with details


1,000,000 RMB (approx. 160,000$) tournament to start in May

Details for Perfect World's 1,000,000 RMB tournament will be announced on 19 April. According to Gosugamers insider, the tournament will begin on May and run well into July.

Perfect World will be holding a press conference on 19 April to announce the details of their upcoming 1,000,000 RMB (~$160,000) tournament.

Gosugamers insiders who are working closely with Gamefy told us that the tournament will start in May and run for two months till the end of July. The tournament will be held in Shanghai where most of the professional teams are.

Besides that, SGamer reported that the organizers will be inviting ten professional teams and most probably play a ten teams round robin stage before the playoffs. The games are expected to be played in a local studio, much like G-League did in early 2013.

The official details of the tournament will have to wait till the 19 April announcement.

Perfect World acquired Valve's rights to distribute Dota 2 in China late last year. Perfect World announced their partnership with Gamefy in a press conference on the 8 March.

Rumors have been spreading over the last few months among Chinese personalities that Perfect World will be hosting massive qualifiers in China for The International 3 later this year.

Gosugamers is currently trying to reach Gamefy for more information about the tournament.

That never occurred to me!

...smartass.

No, your carry doesn't have to be your most talented player, but I was more getting at the fact that Fear is the captain and best player, being dragged down by most of his team. It may be easier for him to call the shots from the 5 position, and that's fine, but the talent they are moving around to make that work is the problem, IMO. Demon may be able to correct his risky playstyle so that he can work in the 1 position, but Jeyo is hopeless. Can't speak for the other positions until I see them play in them.

Of course it's all speculation until we see them play with the new lineup, but I think their issues go a little deeper than roles, and the one person they didn't move around (Jeyo) is their biggest problem IMO.

Fear is probably the best player on the team at any position.
