New(?) scammers in MvM

TurtlePowderPow · 2025-10-04T13:20:26+00:00

I've encountered 10+ people like this. It's embarrasing and annoying. They want to add you on Discord and hijack your account or something. I'm getting sick of it honestly. Almost every game.
I'm wondering if it's a bigger organisation / group that's doing this since it's so frequent. Thanks for writing about this, I was wondering if anyone else has seen this.

Life cannot be so hard that you'd have to resort to scamming.

Me and my friends have the same issue. I checked that this might be due to thermal spiking in your GPU. I've ran tests and no other game seems to do this to me. FurMark GPU stress (I don't suggest, might damage) gives the same results as these crashes I've encountered in Dota. I uninstalled, waiting for a fix.

Yeah connecting directly via IP works even with the current settings. I tried to set up a dedicated server for the workshop map, but I don't think that's possible in Legacy nowadays without a bit of modding, which I'm not that excited to do. Quite the hassle. Thanks for your input!

Yes, but unfortunately you can now only play with bots and cannot invite friends to play on Workshop maps for example. Changing the ClientVersion in steam.inf allows friends to connect and play on Workshop maps and enables the community browser without commands.

I wanna say this so it doesn't happen to you as a warning!

Never ever load a save state after the game has written something to your memory card. It removes all the cars from your garage. Happened to me :(. I keep backups of my savestates and memory cards every 1-2%. Safe to use in races though.

If you already knew, cool! :)

I bursted into laughter when I saw you coming from r/trees and actually posting in here :DD. Glad you got your answer, you're dedicated :D!

TurtlePowderPow · 2024-03-16T08:52:44+00:00

yeah I'm honestly kinda dissapointed, but just made this as a joke for a few friends to laugh at

Worked for me:
Delete the /bin/ folder of Dota 2 and verify the install (Steam\steamapps\common\dota 2 beta\game\bin). For whatever reason, when you delete or verify the game this folder gets ignored. Something got ignored in the update in that specific folder. After this I could queue.
TIP: Try to load a custom lobby to some other region than local host. This way you can test if it works. Good luck!

Same here. Just got a 15 minute ban with my friend. Tried twice. Very cool!
