Nov 6, 2013I really couldnt get into this game... I really didnt want to spend 1500 hours (as some reviewers state) playing a game that seems to me to be very repetitive and dull. And unless you have no life at all outside the pc, then you will be simple fodder for the rest of the players.

Nov 6, 2013The game is great, but situation with diretide is full of shame for valve. The problem is not braking promise about every year event, but the problem is mostly complete lack of response and dialog with community from valve company. There was no official answer. They simply don't give a about us. Thank you

Nov 6, 2013Valve does NOT listen to the community. absolutely shocking, that is all. Even when the community blatantly expects a Halloween patch, they still do nothing, it's a complete joke. realy pls
-
Nov 6, 2013Worst game ever, valve is on the community constantly. At the beginning, the plan was to get the full hero pool of wc3 dota as fast as possible. Now, their priorities changed. They rather do stupid cosmetic stuff and tickets than adding heroes or talking to the community. They have absolutely no contact to the users, they just want our money. Didnt expect that from Valve.

Nov 6, 2013the pace of this game feels so slow after playing years of lol. champ balance are bad. also, i dont like the idea of secret shop. i have play about 20 games not even one good game since what i see are people on the losing side always flaming each other, end up stood there typing, its like i can have more fun playing with bots. when i am on the losing side.omg people leaving game and

Nov 6, 2013The game is good, but it is being handled in a pathetic manner by VALVE
1.Garbage matchmaking
2.Garbage communication from the developers
3.Garbage game engine results in 9 games without someone being able to load and you reenter the queue
4.Null communication and 0 visibility ni visible MMR no ladders
5.No Regin locks
P.S. You take a perfect game and turn it into wjrst game ever created. -

Nov 6, 2013Dota 2 is an amazing game, made by an absolutely terrible team. Hasn't been updated in almost a half a year, no community interaction on what's going on, while the only thing that gets added is cash shop items.
-
Nov 6, 2013Developer that doesn't care about the community. They have shown time and time again,, they don't actually care about the players. Great game ever ^^^
-
Nov 6, 20136.79 patch have very bad metagaming changes (no hardline/easyline enaugh now like a LoL), no new hero... over few mounth only tickets and sets... more action that strategy(bot dota 2 is MOBA)... pfffff, gj icefrog and valve.
-
Nov 6, 2013Dota 2 have very bad communiti, very bad balanse, where new heroes???????????
Valve try to listen people, that playing into your game!
And make all heroes plz. -
Nov 6, 2013Valve spits on his community, so do not be surprised that the community will not care about you. You made a free game, but only care about their own enrichment at the expense of tickets and hats. Keep on like this!!

Nov 6, 2013Very bad matchmaking, bad teammates in soloMM. Bad servers, becouse have lags, big lags on EU/RU/USA servers. Please, fix this matchmaking. Stop give us random players in game.
-
Nov 6, 2013Hello!
I love this game and play it for a long time. The fact is that last year was Diretide. But in this year it was canceled. Valve, please take care of your community and the people which play DotA 2. Otherwise, you will lose them.
Thanks. -
Nov 7, 2013This game is all about hats now. Only thing Valve update in this game is new hats and tournament tickets.
Matchmaking is stupid, queue you with stupid people to force you 50% win rate.
And now the dev team ignore all the community and give no information about nothing when we ask.
It's a dead game -
Nov 7, 2013The game itself is a masterpiece. It has the biggest skill cap in MOBA gerne and the actual gameplay depends on many factors (strategy, quick response on teamfights,communication,coordination etc). However you can't enjoy that stuff if u solo que because of the STONE AGE MMR. If u don't have 4 friends of yours to que all the time, don't waste time in playing this
-
Nov 7, 2013The lack of dedication from the Devs and Valve makes this game not worth playing, no new content added very repetitive community has it's ups and downs. and the cosmetic micro-transactions can suck you in really fast losing any desire yo play just to sit on random sites trading items in a repetitive manner. 0

Nov 7, 2013m. When you done em, it helps 0.0 with the online experience. It is not clear for me, if i can make a char and level/upgrade it or if i have mes not even one good game since what i see are people on the losing side always flaming each other, end

Nov 7, 2013Valve has fogotten its community! where is DIRETIDE #GIVEDIRETIDE, one year they do a lot of things for the community and so on and then when things get going (a.k.a the store is lucrative enough) they simply stop doing things and let the boulder of money roll downhill
-
Nov 7, 2013Basically what others have said. Initially a good game but once the in-game cosmetic store was started it has been nothing but cosmetics and no game updates. It is not even considered "finish" (not all heroes ported from WC Dota). The game has significantly degraded in terms of everything just to get more new players and get them to buy cosmetics.
-
Nov 7, 2013Seriously do not play this game. I play it a lot, it is by far my favorite game. But it will destroy you life, there are games that will give you the exact same feeling but with little commitment compared to this cankerous maelstrom of a game.

Nov 8, 2013What is Dota 2?Dota 2 is crappy matchmaking,horrible community,no communication from developers,no updats,hats and more hats.This game used to be updated every week,the developers used to communicate with the community but now its only hats and no communication.
-
Nov 8, 2013A sucking game which can kick you out of the play without a reason out of nowhere and wont allow you to reconnect to the game without a reason and you'll lose a game without losing the game because Valve servers are on crack.

Nov 8, 2013I started out in dota 2 as a naive young man and suddenly I was accosted by several people who called me noob and kept flaming me. The community in this game is awful and the company does nothing to stop it and the gameplay is not very fun. It also looks very bad like it was made several years ago.

Nov 12, 2013A very good game.. But u suck at putting new heroes to the game.. Valve you suck where's my diretide. Where are my new heroes? the game is out of beta since long! why are you not adding heroes? you deserve a bad rating!

Nov 15, 2013Addictive game, ruined by a community of complete Most of them would read my comment thinking I'm a noob, which I'm not so just proves my point.... Very hard to find a pleasant game were there isn't someone abusing someone on either team.

Nov 28, 2013Excuse my bad english.
I mean. Well what the hell valve's dota2 staff were doing when we players all put discussion thread regarding "restoring to dota2 connection" every now and then. Are we ghosts here putting thread and no response from the staff? PLEASE FIX THE ISSUE. IM BEGGING YOU. -

Feb 25, 2014Before that, all was bearable until Valvil not released fit and offerings ... I was disappointed in the event, and even more from the offerings. Over 40 + pages of rare eventually got no use to anyone. So let oppressive VALVE on!
-
Feb 26, 2014I know this game, it's a bad LoL, now, it's impossible to speak about Dota without speaking about LoL too. Dota 2 is a really bad game, but it's a real free2play not like LoL. But LoL is just better. So, don't play to this game.

Mar 11, 2014This game could be cool but there is something wrong with it. IT'S **** MATCHMAKING. VOLVO, CAN YOU THINK ABOUT IT? PEOPLE WITH 3K HOURS DON'T KNOW HOW TO PLAY! OMG
-
Mar 16, 2014Worst game ever. Just copypast of original dota with the function of reconncect. Terrible community, very gloomy graphic. And dota isn't a hard game. I don't hear it about original dota, but dota2 has become so hard(WHY?). You don't need a lot of ideas and time to make copypast, it was only made to take YOUR money.

Apr 17, 2015Well... what could i say? Even if you like MOBAs u wont like it. This game is only recommended for fans, cuz this game has the worst community i have ever seen. Besides it has only one advantages compared to Dota1. The graphics.
Absolutly not recomended, -

Jul 21, 2014A great strategy & skill & reflex game with many heroes and abilities. However the worthless community nearly destructs everything. I can only recommend this game if you have thick skin or you have friends to play with. Otherwise you'll become someone who becomes angry while playing rather than having fun and you'll do it while becoming racist against Russians & Spanish speaking people.

Aug 17, 2014This game's community is really bad. Every match they have at least 5 Russians and they don't speak English. Plus this game is very addictive that my brother forgot about his real life.

Sep 2, 2014Awful gameplay. Awful graphics. Awful support from Valve. I honestly can NOT think of a single good thing about this game. League of Legends is the better MOBA in every regard.

Sep 4, 2014Not recommended. The worst matchmaking system, people with very different skill level, which makes the experience of poor and stressful game. Dota is a fun game, but the matchmaking is the problem.

Aug 15, 2017And this dichotomy is perhaps the best descriptor I can attach to Dota 2. It is frequently a game which occupies two opposite spaces simultaneously. It is the best game. It is also the worst game. No game has ever made me as miserable as Dota 2 has. But no game has made me feel so consistently rewarded for my time, and as consistently, wonderfully connected to the friends I play it with.
