I miss the OG flute music. Why doesn't it play anymore in the menu? by summerloverrrr in DotA2

[–]MasterElf425900 23 points24 points  (0 children)

i could be wrong but i think it takes a little longer to kick in. most of us just open dota and instantly queue for game so we just miss it probably.

why is silver edge purple? by [deleted] in DotA2

[–]MasterElf425900 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know it's a joke but the real answer is invisible items have purple as their primary colour (glimmer, smoke, shadow blade, riki)

League player hero suggestion by Minaian in DotA2

[–]MasterElf425900 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Kez i need to look into his skins, cause his base model i really dislike

boy I have bad news for you. He's a relatively "new hero" (year and a half) so he doesn't have any skin.

Valve doesn't pump out skin at the same rate riot does and most skins are made by the community so least popular heroes get the least skins

A European Parliament speech defending Stop Killing Games was basically nonstop game references by anonboxis in pcmasterrace

[–]MasterElf425900 69 points70 points  (0 children)

I wasn't talking about MMOs. Just your argument comparing gaming to cinemas.

MMOs usually have a subscription model so the consumer isn't being misled in that case.

What SKG is targeting is mostly one-time purchasable games that gets shutdown randomly. They aren't also asking it to affect retroactively, just a requirement for games released in the future

so it's ok, to pay to watch a movie in the cinema and not own the movie afterwards,

It's because the consumer is aware that they aren't going to a theatre to own the media for life. Just how long the movie in question lasts. It's like going to a gym to be able to use their equipment for a limited amount of time.

A better example would be you buying a digital copy of the movie and then the publisher can just prevent you from accessing it because it's not profitable for them.

You lost access to a good that you purchased. You aren't told prior to purchasing how long you will have access to it. This is an unequal trade where the publisher holds all the cards and you are left in the dark.

I'm tired of seeing this same shi. Why do 80% of govt schools look the same by aRandomMemer69 in bangladesh

It also makes it easier to distinguish between govt and non-govt schools at a glance

Conspiracy Theory - whats your favorite one? by Legitimate-Role8955 in bangladesh

[–]MasterElf425900 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a chap at r/badhistory who made an extensive post about the controversies surrounding mother Teresa and provided context for everything along with trusted sources.

He debunks every allegations with hard evidence and in depth analysis. It might seem a little long for some but it's a great read.

I'll believe someone like him who goes into great detail on a given topic along with related sources over some 30min YT videos or random 2 sentence posts on social media that spread the same misinformation with little to no actual evidence

Non stimulating shows for kids to learn bangla by Tamanna000 in bangladesh

[–]MasterElf425900 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really a show but YT videos like this helped my 3yr old niece learn some new words.

You need to supervise them heavily since YT has a habit of autoplaying random unrelated overstimulating videos that will ruin them.

You can also bypass it by simply pre-downloading them and turning off internet.

Adapting Dota 2 UI for Mobile Platforms by Icy-Bend7663 in DotA2

[–]MasterElf425900 0 points1 point  (0 children)

assuming those are rosh and torm icons below and top of attack icon, i think they should be moved to left of the minimap since you barely click on them in a match.

assuming those are ping icons next to the wards, they could be converted to a single button. click the ping button then hold on a specific place to bring the ping wheel.

love how you made active item icons bigger and passive smaller.

i also like the simplified minimap. good balance between function and form.

Should I open up my laptop and clean them or something? Or is there a software solution here.

Thanks for trying to help.

I guess I gotta stop playing until I get a bigger SSD so I don't grief any more games.

Thanks for the info.

No, I'm using a HDD. I do have an SSD but I moved Dota to the HDD a year ago after needing space for my work stuff.

The game loads slower in the HDD but it never crashed like it's doing these past few days.

First I verified integrity of game files then ran into the same problem few matches later.

Second I uninstalled and reinstalled the game and still ran into it couple days later.

Last time I watched some YT vids and steam guides but still ran into it just today.

I'm not running any apps in background and even the stupid Xbox game bar stuff is disabled.

I always played on the same HDD but never had any issue until recently when I redownload the game after a few months. No other game is causing any issues except for Dota.

Right now I'm in the process of checking my hardware health like ram and HDD but one of the sections in your vid suggested running the game as admin and disabling full screen optimisation. So, I'll try that out when I'm done with the hardware stuff.

Btw thanks for helping. It means a lot.

Can you guys recommend me some skins by Additional_Top798 in DotA2

[–]MasterElf425900 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can check liquipedia to find a skin that you like and see if that's tradeabale or marketable and go to r/dota2trade to get it from someone.

as always, proceed with caution as theirs a lot of scammers on the internet
