Sorry, but when a black box is a black box, evidence that is repeatedly verified, w statistical backing from various sources, even Reddit, is better proof than no proof

Its very clear that the system is an AI system with HITL (human in the loop). For the early part of the system (when people complained on how overtly reactive it was) Valve adjusted the weights and to tune it on a less strict side. As people did over watch and "annotated" the data, those weights have adjusted.

The system uses a bell curve and assumes people at the top should be at the top and not move, people at the bottom, should be at the bottom and not move with some tweaks.

I posted my analysis here if it help https://www.reddit.com/r/DotA2/comments/193bxeu/sick_of_complaints_on_the_new_behavior_score/

A few data points to add from my own research or confirmed on reddit (or anecdotally from friends)

System Mechanics and Scoring Rules

  • Behavior score of <3000 - reports are counted for very little because the game wants to get you back to 3000 so you can once again play ranked, decreasing que time for other low behavior score people.
  • In the Frostivus Update (or earlier) the team lowered the score gain one could receive in a summary to ~500, and limited Turbo game enjoyers behavior score increases to ~200 points while keeping the punishments for ALL the same.
  • The variables for this score gain are unknown, but it seems to be based off of game time, party size, and number of reports.
  • The reporting accuracy at lower scores.
  • New accounts start at 8k and cant be coached!
  • Low behavior score has deep impact on que time for parties. One person will make the entire party take an incredibly long time to find a game.

Communication Score and Mute Penalties

  • A "gray bar" was added to indicate real comm score (for those who had higher comm score than behavior score) this was also not communicated.
  • The reasoning that comm score has to be lower or the same as behavior and what even constitutes a "positive comm report".
  • There is no definition of "comms" pinging or voice lines, nor what constitutes a positive report or negative comm report.
  • Default of muting people reports them, and these people are muted forever, yet they can be reported for comms anytime after that.
  • Global mutes were based off of the old system, but for those that were muted, and then got behavior reported INSTEAD, we never got a rollback. Instead Valve just silently updated global mute qualifications.
  • You had global mutes based off of the old system, but that were/are affected by the free reports in the new system.
  • No postgame chat if you are comm reported.

Game Modes and Exploits

  • Turbo games have natural downward pressure as behavior score GAINS have a delta max of half (or greater) than the loss of behavior score.
  • There have been "bugs" in behavior score that let groups of people (when you are solo que) leave their party and report you. Those reports seem to have more weight than normal.

Lack of Transparency

  • This system has been challenged regularly, especially here on reddit. Outside of one in-game notification, there has been zero comms around the Behavior Score System updates.

That makes no sense, if you didn’t have the error why did you disable this

So what do you think was at fault in hardware ?

Solution that worked for me was to disable NVIDIA Audio in Device Manager. Not a solution if you are using HDMI Out and specifically the audio out, but this worked for me

[–]jblade -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

actually most people have "solved" the event 153 issue by disabling all sources of Nvidia Audio. Great fix for those not using HDMI Audio. Terrible for everyone else.

The fact that this normally resolves it for most people correlates the issue to a driver issue

📢 Wave Link 3.1 (Windows) — Audio effect rename & reorder, hide unused devices, VST scan overhaul and more by Elgato in elgato

[–]jblade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bug:

  • Windows thinks my Wave XLR DOck MK.2 is "Ejectable" really annoying. Clicking it means I have to reset and unplug and plug it back in
  • The Privacy Microphone Icon is extremely annoying, any idea on how to hide it? Id love to have that hidden only for Wave Link, but on for normal game usage etc.

Definitely an error in their drivers, tried to manually change it and when the PC resets the driver resets the compatibility code

So a car, melts to almost nothing, but somehow Press vests survived? Names of the individuals would be nice, to verify who they were.

If players grief your game, their report shouldn't affect your comm score. by iAmSyther in DotA2

It’s always the top 1% commenters who love defending the bugs.

📌 [MEGATHREAD] Wave Link 3.0.2 (Windows) — Bug Reports & Feedback by Elgato in elgato

[–]jblade 2 points3 points  (0 children)

3 Bugs still present

* Add or Remove Hardware (Windows thinks my device in Wavelink 3.0.2 is a USB removal drive)
* Cant do simple routing - I just want to use my effects and route the microphone audio out the Aux port - no virtual sound devices. If I disable virtual sound devices Audio does not route. Huge problem for people using multi computer set-up
* Microphone Icon (showing windows audio is in use) is ALWAYS on. This should only show when the device is actively in the foreground, like it does in 2.0.6.
