i've found better 'friends' in dota than in most other games, that's certain. Doesn't compare to MMORPGs in that sense though.
It's you that changed and need something new, dota is the over the past decade.
You could still play, scheduling is what's important.
Honestly the real question here should be why is the word "cannibal" in your most used word bank?
I feel you OP, if it wasnt for my friends and our weekend party stack i would quit dota years ago, becuase only masochists play solo ranked on "weekend doto" and because party dota is the most fun shit ever, this game sucks dicks when you play solo, its stressful, toxic and tense, because everybody wants to win so you shed blood and tears for 30-45mins for that shitty +25.
But this meta got stale pretty fast, cant wait for this Major to be over and i hope we gonna get patch, a good patch that will change stuff not that "Hero X got -1 str xd" shenanigance!
If i play one more game with or against Jugger/PA/AM/TB im gonna throw up
i think playing past 20:00 is a mistake, thats when the people qeue that don care and just want to vent anger after a day at work
probably have to play at during weekdays at workhours
You are asking too much from just a game, take what you can and have some fun, theres this hyped Auto Chess custom game right now etc...
you lose 3 in a row... you queue again... enemy's 3manning you non-stop... but you still win! thats a feelsgoodman!
Friends? Nobody finds "friends" through dota. you either have friends in real life from before dota or you don't have friends at all, that's how shit works, ain't no "friend" in dota gonna be there in time of need right?

maybe you gotta realize "friend" is just not for "your time in need" eddie
^i mean that everyone, literally even a random stranger, can be around you in times of happiness and celebration (which requires no effort) but when shit goes down only family and real friends will stick by you. You think some random f@g on dota cares a damn? As long as he gets his +25 or a fun game he's happy. Maybe you gotta read between the lines pikachu
Yes I bonded with my irl friends through dota, literally during our free time, we would play dota, after school classes, we would play dota, now they already quit dota and I am the only one playing now.
But I am really glad that I made such great friends that helped me enjoy and survive in school and its all thanks to dota that we are all able to create such bonds.
They don't have to be good friends. I'm just looking for a group of people to discuss Dota & play with, continuing to hone our skills together & have someone to review the game together after we're done. It's not asking too much but with all the toxicity going on, I think everyone is on their toes on trying to make friends.
I played maybe too seldom to any dota friends I got, I turned them down too often because of RL, and I am playing casually in there only because I like the game, not because my RL is sucks, this in turn made me non toxic most of the time and grant me friends and commend.
@eddie
well,does it even matter? i had fun on the "happiness and celebration" with them,who the hell cares if they will care about me later when i'm on my deathbed or something? it's about i enjoy my time spent with them,its a win for me,a win for them
who the hell wants to be friends with someone who requires effort? i defntly won't touch those annoying strangers who demands alot from me,so what is the problem with "no effort"?
if a +25 will make me and my friend happy,why not? why do you need to think "that guy won't be there for me when shit goes down" u retard
you didnt take a long enough brake, or stop completely with dota 2.
if you want to keep playing you need to ACCEPT that these kind of people are around, and not babyrage. then yet again it would be fine if you want to get game ruiners banned, but toxicity is part of the game.
"i defntly won't touch those annoying strangers who demands alot from me,so what is the problem with "no effort"?"
xd gotta stop asking you to analyze my replays
ive looked at it and no suprise, ive found idiot, report, dick fucker cancer, bitch, ban, retard, fck, stfu, noob, bad, sad, stupid, pinoy and noobs. are you telling me that you have never been toxic in allchat? despite most of these being cusswords, or (to some) racial slurs? i find that hard to believe, i also dont rage super much, but i aint lying to myself when im saying im pretty toxic in allchat, and sometimes toxic to my teammates as well.
@pikachu lol why so triggered dude, calling me a retard and shit
I'm talking about friends here, while you're going on about "not touching strangers who demand a lot from me" what are you smoking dude gimme some of it
Got a couple of guys I play/played with regularly, really only one who plays it regularly atm but he plays a lot of solo ranked so don’t play with him a lot that much.
OP I think really you are just growing up, lots of things change and don’t stay the same, I barely have contact with people from my high school and a few close uni friends, people move on and leave your life, that’s just how life goes.
ah sry if kinda offensive,not really mean any harm
i thought using retard or fck is kind of normal already int his forum
for your first topic,i was just describing myself that i don't want something troubling,and i'm sure others would too when they becomes someone in your life
for 2nd,well if you start to judge me like that what can i do? don't have anything for me to prove it to you
i'll say i have alot of friends then(i'm pretty popular,and yes in rl too)
but i definitely don't expect them to do something for me,
why don't you define the concept of "friends and relationships" from your point of view? it might be we just view stuffs differently,since i definitely think having friends=someone that i can be enjoy with
and yeah,i dont care if some random f@g in dota gives a damn about me later on when "shit happens" like you say
cause seriously,in my opinion it's really annoying to meet someone who expects something from me when we become friends
so,i'm trying not to become a person that i don't like
i get your point,but wanting a some random dota f@g to actually be with you on shit happens is kinda far fetched and not wanting to
make friends with "people who don't go with you when shit happens"/"dota f@gs who'll just won't care about your life problems and they
play dota to have fun" is kinda edgy,don't you think?
OP mentioned actual friends in his post, which is why I was speaking about friends in that context. And hey you may be popular but I'm sure you know popularity =/= close friends which is the context I assumed OP was talking about. And I'm in no way say people become friends with each other to expect something from them. I'm saying real friends stick around when times are not good, where in it's highly unlikely to find those online. If op just said he wants "people to play with" then I wouldn't have said what I said
yea i got some "close friends" that's like 2 people i think(dont know what they think about me,but i'm sure it's mutual,not a mind reader) if you seriously going to keep going this topic of "i dun have this or i dun have that"
expect something,isn't having fun together enough then to become friends?(i expect laugh/conversation/fun etc) but why do you expect your online friends to stick around(or help,in this case) when for example,you got some kind of a problem in real life?
okay,just for example you have money problems,and you can't pay for your rent for your sleep place
do you seriously expect your friends from doto gonna give you money or something (or online friends),and if they can't/doesnt want,do you stop consider them as friend/doesn't even consider them at the first place?(heck,what the heck are you thinking when you first want to make a relationship/be a friend with someone online?)
ah btw,i used rent thingy since there was,one of my friend(not me) who got paid rent for one month by his online friend from mmorpg since he can't pay his rent for housing(he's a student),like you say,it is rare but there's still something right?
although they became enemies now rip,very sad [well,still proves my point when they friends,they still stick together on time in need even just online friends]
ok why did i type something that will ruin my argument
or maybe we just view things differently i guess,"people to play with" is "friend" in my perspective,in yours isn't a friend,just some friends in game or something or "someone to play with"
this isn't bad,we're just different in having opinions/way of life i guess
idk why the heck am i arguing about this,i think i just dont like where people expects too much from a "friend". if they want to help they'll help man,there's no need for us to expect them to do shit for us and making them feel troubled or something
idk
could understand when you talking about family and stuff though
geez,you deleted some of your words on the previous previous post,now it made me loook stupid by saying 1st topic and 2nd topic
Sorry, I deleted the second half of my message right after I posted it, I guess you were reading it while I was deleting it so it was still there since your page didn't refresh! Lol my bad, anyway I didn't want to be rude man was just putting my opinion across

I made a post a while back saying that Dota isn't fun anymore because it's starting to feel like a chore to do. I got comments saying that I should take a break from Dota and come back again when I feel like it. Well I'm back, but nothing has changed.
Dota has been Fun for the past 10 years of my life. I came back lately because after watching True Sight Ti8 I got some inspiration to play Dota again. My friends no longer play Dota anymore & there really isn't a community here that I think I fit in. Truth is there are only so many times you can play the same map over and over again.
Dota used to be fun. After a game, I would talk to my friends on the way to school on how I could improve on my playstyle & how certain items worked well with certain heroes & the different kind of wombo combo shit we should pull off in our next game. Those were the good ol days of Dota. Now I've known what works best with what & there's nothing left to explore anymore & even if I did find something new you can bet there's already a youtube video about it & it's done about a million times by other people. There is only so much to Dota.
I would have stayed longer if it wasn't so toxic everywhere. I could have made some friends while playing Dota but I haven't met any. But what was I expecting? Dota brings out the worst in people. This is not where you find friends. I've been nice, I've never flamed anyone & never trash talked in the 10 years I've played. I've got solid proof of it on openDota if anyone is even interested in https://www.opendota.com/players/102149255/wordcloud
I can proudly say even if most of you may disagree, I can play a decent game of Dota. I'm not bad, I'm not god like either, maybe a little above average but that's about it. I'm at the point where it's all about the reactive times and the decision makings that dictates my skill cap. So if I ever get invited to a LAN party to play Dota sometime soon. I'll at least have an edge on the game & maybe show off a little, but for now, I'm officially done with Dota.
Maybe I'm just unlucky. So here's a question for you guys. Have you found actual friends in Dota?
