So,how can we make VALVE enforce the regional-servers thingy really nicely? By that ,i mean - RUSSIANS - they join on Europe,i heard US & Asia too,all the other servers.
I have 8-9 years of DotA 1 & 2-3 HoN & LoL , some friends were even told to learn russian,i think i was told too a couple of times. TODAY SOME NYX ( Anub'Arak,nerubian assassin) russian random teammate told me " Why you play on Russia server then?" (and we were on Europe server=> facepalm & FML-fuck my life.) . Isnt this outrageous? So ,any suggestions?Like a petition on a site ( or heck,multiple xD ) and what other ideeas you got? No hard feelings russians ,i ain't racist or xenophobic ,but cyrillic fonts spamm on NON-RUSSIA- SERVERS and beeing told to learn russian language and that we " are on russian server" is too much.And i'm sure i'm not the only one thinking this. I mean sure,there ARE multiple native languages in various countries across Europe and Asia et cetera,but we mostly speak english or whatever,and only use native language when we have full teams,we do NOT invade the other servers and spamm languages that aren't primarily used in those servers,what the heck...

You'd be fucked then, half the ukrainians (urban ones) don't speak ukrainian. They only hear it on national television or from old people. The majority of the country speaks russian. It's one of the official country languages as well.

And it's not chirillic, it's cyrillic.

English is one of the languages spoken by most people on Earth i think?:) ...My father used to joke saying "the chinese language is the most spoken (but they speak it amongst themselves xD ) " and people say french too caz it's a diplomatic language tough i only like a few things from french :D .
So please ,if you havent played dota or you did and you're just trolling,don't troll...Don't compare english with having cyrillic fonts spammed ...If i see some ukraineans or others from Europe that use cyrillic fonts then sure mate,why not,BUT when i see 543285732857238627642764764327646723573257325 RUSSIANS INVADING SERVERS WITH CYRILLIC FONTS SPAMM WHEN THEY DO HAVE THEIR OWN SERVERS, that's just outrageous.And heck most just play to play,for the sake of art,they could just go play super mario,bomberman,pacman,duckhunt ,battle tanks mortal kombat etc for that matter :) if they don;t play to win,or just stay the hell away from our servers since they have their own servers what the heck really -.-

According to CIA factbook, only 4.83% of world population has some variant of English as a native language, which puts English in the third place, after Mandarin and Spanish. Maybe we should all speak Latin or Esperanto? Don't be a hater, if there's several people playing and you join in, do as natives do, do not force your customs on them. Try to have some fun for a change... and learn some curse words in their language.

That's a pretty hotly contested topic, and the CIA factbook is referring to native speakers.

When people say English is the most widely spoken language, it's because it's spoken in the largest number of countries, and it's spoken quite frequently as a second language. If you don't know the native language of a country, whether you're in Africa, Europe, Asia, or wherever else, there's a good chance English is spoken there as well.

Edit: I feel like I should add that Mandarin is only in first place thanks to the sheer number of people in China alone. It's spoken hardly anywhere else, except for some business heavy areas that specialize in dealing with the Chinese.

This site gives a pretty good breakdown.

yesterday I was told I had to learn english BECAUSE the game was set in england (killing floor), yes that was the logic, not because the server was hosted in the USA (I think) which was the most logical option they had, they even were minority on the server at the time

Then a moron of a friend argues with me they are right, I'm like, wtf if the game is set in china I have to learn and use chinese now?

needless to say it bring me happiness to see the opposite going lol, so go learn russian!

russians are actually quite good, they play solo but at least they are at least a bit wee good on reaction. You just need to babysit them properly to snowball.

I KNOW ITS POSSIBLE TO ENFORCE THE REGIONAL thingy But it would also be hard to make a ballanced decision on how to keep the meet-with-your-friend(s)-across-the-world thingy occasionally :) ..

or even just the regular Dota forum And then there's the Dota community forum

I don't frequent the community forum, but I know back when I was actually playing Dota, if you posted about region locking on Playdota, you were warned for spamming and your thread was locked since there were already two or three official threads for it. In other words: They already know there's a problem and spamming unrelated forums isn't helping.

I know this is going to sound elitist, but you really can't understand unless you play quite a bit of Dota (which I used to before I realized I hated the atmosphere.)

The main problem is that Russian servers are terrible so most Russians play on EU or other servers. This leads to a series of other problems, such as the language barrier. As you probably know, Dota is a very team based game, so being unable to communicate with your team mate is a huge problem. Add that in with the amount of Russians (the same proportion of which are as unskilled as the general population) and confirmation bias, and there's a huge amount of Russian hate in the DotA community.

Since good Russians aren't a problem, and you don't know that bad Russians that speak English are Russian at all, Russians receive a lot more hate than they deserve, but if you take into account the awful DotA community (Mobas as a whole, in fairness) and they don't care about the facts. They see a bad player, he speaks Russian, therefore all Russians ruin all games.

The average DotA player will refuse to believe that their (lack of) skill had anything to do with a loss, so the only thing they do is find reasons why it wasn't their fault. Russians are an easy target because the language barrier provides a convenient excuse.

Why is that? I merely asked a question.

This is more of a technical problem with the game (people are basically forced to play on servers not in their regions cause of latency). Taking part in this conversation while not playing Dota is for me like taking part in a conversation about a technical problem with a particular model of i.e. dishwasher when not owning a dishwasher, of any kind, whatsoever.

I know a bit about bad atmosphere in Dota/LoL/Moba games and I hate it myself too - I wasn't trying to be rude.

It's the way you asked it, just like it's the way DotA players do everything they do. No one asks "Hey, can I please have mid? I was stuck with support for the last three games, and I'm really not very good at it." It's always "Mid or feed." And if they do ask that way, there's always someone that goes "Nope, I called it first."

The community doesn't believe that there's an 'average' player. Everyone's either a shitty noob or a worthless tryhard (which is the most annoying term in the world). And a loss is never your fault, it's always someone else on your team didn't perform as perfectly as you did.

The community as a whole is just godawful, and while the game is fun, it's nowhere near worth it to deal with the rest of the players, especially how with the community run support program, you can get banned thanks to a couple of unlucky games.

Like I said: "I know a bit about bad atmosphere in Dota/LoL/Moba games and I hate it myself too - I wasn't trying to be rude."

Your first paragraph characterizes novice players who have no idea about roles and teamplay in this game so let's leave it at that.

Second paragraph - unfortunately, that's more of a trait of character of people playing on all levels (and more often than not those who stay on those levels indefinitely - those who can't see and acknowledge their mistakes don't get better). I even started to think that there's a certain personality profile of an average Moba player but that's a talk for another day ;)

Third - I agree, game is fun but community can be awful. When someone does something wrong/you do something wrong but at least there's communication you can still make it work out. Often players are jerks in stating their opinions but they may actually know what they're saying and they just want to win so that's about half-effective communication. So you can only imagine when players don't understand each other because of different languages and different play-styles - communication is reduced to zero and that's why it's such a big problem in a team game. That's why I try to play only premades with my friends nowadays :(

DUDE,LET ME QUOTE YOU from MYSELF,at a cybercafe,many years ago,in DotA 1 (pre- br/rs spamm in text and there wasn't in-game microphone implemented either) - " Noobs are okay if they let you organize them" and by that i meant like Mortred etc :) easier heroes that you can help .
I have played Jedi Oucast for 6 years and wasn't top duelist & only one to ever wear 2 ranks at same time but ALSO THE BEST TRAINER in that game SO YES I HAVE PATIENCE YES I DO KNOW AND DO SUPPORT THE FACT THAT NO-ONE WAS BORN A PRO,But yeahhhhhhhhh the (how was it upper?) " LANGUAGE-BARRIER" is one thing,combine it with total arrogance and i quote " why are you playing on Russia server?" ( when it's not really) and " go learn russian " etc.
I'm both casual and hardcore,support both.
:) What i don't support is people thinking that single players are a higher challenge then multiplayers
(this is another topic,wich wont be further discussed by me,my opinion on that is that sure most players are more stupid then some artifficial intelligence npcs in some games probably but the highest challenges come from PVP with the best players and i,for one,strive to better myself more and more,at gameplay,teamplay,tactics & tricks,ninja tactics & tricks,over-view-look,outside-za-box-thinking et cetera.)

Talk about language barrier, huh? I literally have no idea what you're trying to say, but I'll do my best.

The 'problem' is not nearly as bad as you think it is. This is confirmation bias at its worst. Do me a favor, and from now on ask everyone you play with what nationality they are. I guarantee you that there are many more Russians that don't act like that than do. Also, I guarantee you that more games have been ruined thanks to people in your own country than thanks to Russians.

So you're saying that all Russians suck and Valve needs a region lock because of one game? Please learn what confirmation bias is (I even linked the wikipedia article.) and now you're just giving anecdotal evidence to support your cause.

Again, please take into account all the people from your own country that have played just as badly, if not worse, and then take into account all the Russians that have played better than you. I'm also sure that there are hundreds of people you've played with who are Russian but you don't even realize it.

And better yet, please look at one of the hundreds of other threads about this on one of the hundreds of other Dota forums, and you'll see I'm just repeating points that have been proven again and again. You'll also see that not only is there not a problem at all, but even if there was, there are a good dozen or so reasons why Valve can't/won't do anything about region locks.

This is definitely a big problem for all dota2 players (russians too, I bet they would prefer to play with people who understand them) but it won't be solved until russia/brasil gets better data centers so they can play on their servers without lags.

And because of economic reasons I guess Valve isn't so eager to invest a lot in infrastructure in those regions....so yeah, that may take a while...

Don't worry, this has been discussed to death already and Valve will likely never enforce any true region lock. Players have friends in other countries, native servers can lag compared to other servers, and plenty of cases like yours, not to mention cross country tournaments would be all but impossible. Dota players just love to whine and argue, especially about things that lead to a lost game, whether or not they're true.

I gave up on this cause long time ago. I just try to put my feelings on a box locked in the closet when im playing Dota2. Yeah, its a fact that the Russians have take over the EU servers and about 70% ++ of the times im matched with Russians who only speak...well...Russian. You dont have to be a racist or xenophobic or wtv the hell everyone says when someone brings the issue up. Its not big deal if someone fails to play a game like a human but it is a big deal when you dont fuckin understand wtf he says for 30-40+ min while you are in the same team with him in game which needs some basic communication between the players.

Quote " Its not big deal if someone fails to play a game like a human but it is a big deal when you dont fuckin understand wtf he says for 30-40+ min while you are in the same team with him in game which needs some basic communication between the players. "
**And it's even worse when you get reported even tough you just wanna rip your hair off of your head because of their gameplay,nonexistant teamplay ( okay,these two not always but almost always),language spamm and attitude xD

here So i had to post on their topic of likes & dislikes.Are they really the game devs ?I'm hoping they are as great with the community and stuff as GrindingGearGames( path of exile etc) and not like EA/ubisoft/uplay/gfwl/ HammerpointShark(warz xD,it's a very cool game till i'll get dayz tough from what i saw community has little support,i myself reformated windows for the beta mobility driver 13,6 to fix black boxes bug)
Anyway i'm hoping something can be done (and hopefully not me AND MANY OTHERS having to quit DotA 2 either xD )

Things I have learned from this thread. OP "have 8-9 years of DotA 1 & 2-3 HoN& LoL", doesn't know how to spell Cyrillic, OP is tired and OP is making no fucking sense whatsoever, less than the Russians he claims are an issue. That is all I have learned from this thread. I feel like this thread missed the point along the way.

Thank you for your feedback. Well it's not like i'm dying to learn russian language anymore,i was going to like 1-2 years ago but since DotA 2 not anymore..maybe in the future idk.Will start with french,japanese & all the rest of the latin-descendant languages & a couple of others first.

Oh, come on, I got used to them. I even learned some Russian in Dota. Sometimes when we (friends and me) are bored, we are going to Russian servers to see them flaming on Russian (sookah blyad raq loch; fucking niggah etc.) Also, theyr ingris skil is hillarious. For example

Just so you know... it's written Cyrillic, not chirilic.

And as far as communication is concerned, aren't there quick commands that you can use to give information to your partners? Like defend a lane, attack there, and so on? So what if you can't discuss builds and the such, anyway when you do you lose because you lost so much time chatting around...

No. Currently the button Y has some very nice quick chat commands but the -defend X lane you have to signal or stuff like that :) .
OKAY PHOENIXIO, imagine you have many many years of DotA 1 & 2-3 HOn& LoL and when you start DotA 2 on EUROPE servers you see - JUGGERNAUT using bladefury ON ABSOLUTELY NOTHING +Omnislash ulti on enemies +CREEPS (lovely) and doesnt make phase boots(not even boots) untill you shout at him for 15-17 minutes .Good thing he listened to me then left and we beat the enemies.
OH and Syllabear (Lone Druid) who saiz "me jungle" " i'm pro" then makes headress of rejuvenation and when i ask him " dunno,it was recommended" :) facepalm. I HAD (in DotA 1 ) on SPIRIT BEAR (Syllabear's Bear) - AEGIS ofImmortal,Divine Rapier,Buryza-DoKyannon(Daedalus in DotA 2 and Stargate ship xD ) ,Butterfly,Basher,Treads and on Syllabear i had treads,vladimir,cuirass,monkey king bar ,mjolnir,blade mail. I was left 1v1 vs a Centaur warchief & totally pwnt him.
Anyway the list goes ON AND ON since my first days of DotA 2 - broodmother up(Top lane) dying with 3 webs ffs..(and another russian -MID RAZOR competing with the brood dying non stop )...
swedish buffet feeding IS ACCEPTABLE IF ( CAZ NO-ONE IS BORN PRO,truedat) they were from Europe and not other place wich already has servers,and if they wouldnt've spammed Cyrilic (or w/e it's written) fonts in chat & microphone,and they weren't ukraineans or other countries in Europe with that fonts but russians,i used ot have a habbit of asking the country when i saw those fonts BUT NOWADAYS nope ,mostly russians i see who use cyrilic fonts :( :D
AND NOWADAYS what is EVEN WORSE - beeing told " Why are you playing on Russia server?" ( in Europe and others) and " go learn russian" .

Like in WarZ/other zombie games on mic " Friendly friendly don't shoot " xD .No my friend,dying in DotA & loosing is part of learning from your/others's mistakes but when you get shown the middle finger at the end - reported and told to learn russian /leave Russia servers ( tough it wasn't,but Europe) ,and similar stuff like that,it really REALLY gets outrageous yup.
