Dota 2 interface bug and punishment
I just try to find a game with my friends and, when we found one, the interface of the game bugged completly. Never before, in 8 years of play, this happen. Here's a screen telling that i'm not lying: https://imgur.com/c2EHyaY

This is part of a big problem: Dota 2, in this last patches, have only deteriorated in performance and optimization. I have a decent PC and, never in my years, I had problems running this game, but recently, due to valve's ambitions to put a lot of arcanes and cosmetic, forgetting if the game is running correctly or not, lots of this problems begun to show up.

Some of you guys love to struggle with League of Legends players, don't you? Heres one detail about LoL: there are no optimization problems and a lot of bad PCs can run it easly.

I know that this complain is stupid and Valve will continue don't givin a ♥♥♥♥ about this, but this last bug made me angry enough to make this post.

I care little if LoL works or don't. I don't play it and never will. But Dota 2 never was optmized enough, even reborn couldn't fix everything and I feel that Valve don't care about. So the argument is still valid.

You can also bind "disconnect" console command to any key and use it as emergency black screen exit. And make sure dota has enough memory - no multitab browser should be runing along with dota

Good idea. I will. Thanks.
I need to keep everything closed when I play, helps with the FPS too.

It's a very common problem and even though I'm not putting the blame on you, it definitely has to do with the specs of your PC. Basically what happens is the game bugs out when you don't have sufficient enough power to load the environment (game) without any hiccups. If you want to avoid it, you will have to stop running any programs in the background that are meaningful to the load of your system (for my old laptop it's even an internet browser) and don't Alt+Tab while waiting for a game. Considering how lazy and uncaring Valve is, I doubt they will fix it, so if you are not content being stuck looking at the queue timer while waiting for a game expect this bug to appear again.
