Ping and Friends Puns

Source: http://www.dota2.com/threespirits

The specifics from the patch notes:

• Anyone in a matchmaking party can specify that they'd like to coach the party instead of play. In lobbies, players can choose to coach a team instead of play or spectate. Coaches cannot be used in Team Matchmaking, or Tournament lobbies.

• Increased maximum matchmaking party size to 6, to allow a coach to teach an entire team of students (but you can't Find Match if you have 6 players with no coach)

• Coaches are able to use in-player perspective views and broadcaster tools like line drawing to teach their students. They are able to ping on the ground, the minimap, and anywhere in the HUD itself.

• Coaches are considered to be on the same team as their students, so they cannot see anything in the game that their students can't see.

• Coaches and students have private voice and text communication channels.

• Coaches can hit their 'Hero Select' key to cycle through their students.

• Coaches see spectator-style item purchase popups for their students.

• In-perspective player view now shows the correct state of more HUD elements (Shop Quickbuy, KDA/Last Hits/Denies, Buyback). These improvements apply the the in-perspective view in live games and replays, as well as coaches.

Just let me change servers AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I don’t think it’s internet related as it doesn’t appear that anything has changed regarding my internet connectivity

Hi all, I have a friend I have been trying to play this with, and his ping is stable but high, at around 200-250 at the top right corner. Usually when we play other games like Overwatch we join servers together with a ping of 50ms at most. Here are the things I have tried:

• Port forward TCP 11155; UDP 3478,4379-4380,11155
• Set Physics in server settings to Semi Lock.
• Switching hosts

Is there anything else I could try? I feel it's definitely not our connections as we are both on wired, and Discord voice chat is smooth.

if any of you are into anime, I highly recommend it.

it's kind of a sport anime, but not super focused on the sport. it isn't boring at all, like you might expect if you don't like watching real life sports(like me).

it follows several high school ping pong players throughout their hardships and life. the character development is insanely good, it has only 11 episodes but manages to flesh out several side characters and multiple plot lines, which conclude in a mostly satisfying way. the animation has a very unique (many might say odd) style. I really enjoyed the artstyle. it has really sparked my emotions.

Starting now bitch! u/parrott163

Is this happening to anyone else? I saw a few posts on twitter but I don’t know if they were experiencing the same as me.

A buddy of mine was playing with me yesterday and would constantly say that his game was dropping TONS of frames, which is weird since I know that his computer has all the necessary hardware to run WAY bigger games at around 144 FPS consistently. When I heard how low his frames were I had asked what his ping was, and it turned out that he had like 40-50 ping, What was even weirder was that the issue persisted into Practice mode with 0 ping, is there a way for my buddy to fix this?

It needs a little bit of training, because the crosshair isn't there and the camera is constantly moving slowly. But the middle of your screen is the point, where your ping marker will land. Please use this feature. Thank you.

I love the music scene here in Atlanta and have been to the Tabernacle, Roxy, Terminal West, Variety Playhouse, etc. I just saw Spafford at Variety and I'm looking for friends to meet up before or during the event! I've lived here just under 8 months so I have limited Jam Band friends 😅. I'm always looking for more 😊

If one of us five isn’t being disconnected then it’s a rare fucking occurrence. I don’t really have much else to say- pings between thirty to sixty.

Whenever we have high pings that normally result in being kicked, we instead get brief minor lag. When we get disconnected there is no warning, not even a little lag, sound hiccup, rubber banding etc. etc.

As of late, the quality of the Xbox One branch of the community has hit the shitter.

From reducing R6 credits value, ramping up the amount of renown needed for everything, the lack of loyalty to old veterans like myself who have played since WEEK ONE OF THE GAME has been topped off by vastly prolonged exploitations of glitches that spread like cancer. The icing on the cake, the layer of soft snow to the peak of my icy mountain, is the now horrible server problems that remind me of the days leading up to and during Operation Health.

Ubisoft has turned this game around and it was on the right track- why did it get derailed again? This is my favorite multiplayer game. I love it and I love the community despite how hostile it can be at times- but I don’t think it’s okay to turn a blind eye to how much neglect the console players seem to be experiencing.

but my ping in game and in discord is low. Need help, my friends voices dont lag.

As a solo, I get paired up with duos in private chat a lot. More so during tonight’s go at s1KK. And I can’t count how many times duo A pings a lvl 2,3,4 thing I need, I dibs it b/c I actually need said item, only to have them pick it up and run it to their buddy. The one that finally made me post after a long night of bs team mates was a gold barrel stabilizer in my last match. Duo a(rev) ran it to duo b(gibby) who had a pk and a flatline. I had an r-99. With no barrel mod. Saw duo a(rev) drop it for duo b (gibby) so duo a wasn’t using it either. Wtf.

So after many, many snatched items, i gotta ask, is this an accepted practice and I should just expect it? Or does the community care about a random third’s dibs and I’ve just run into a lot of crappy teammates? And how often does it happen to you guys. I can’t be the only one running into these kinds of teams.
