Can't join games - Stuck on loading screen

[Molk]

When trying to join a matchmaking game or watch any live game, my game will sit on the loading screen indefinately, until I force the program to close. Started on the second day of the T13 prelims, still the same problem. I can join training and solo bot games.

I have reinstalled Dota 2 and updated my GPU driver. I have tried starting Dota in -safe and -autoconfig modes. I have verified the game cache.

Any others with this issue or have a fix?

Go to properties, right click launch options, and paste:

+clientport 27006

+clientport allows you to have multiple clients connect from the same router.

Additionally, if you have trouble connecting in the future, replace the last 2 digits with any number between 05 and 32 (excluding 20).

Thank you for the reply! Reseting my router actually ended up doing the trick a few days ago.

This usually fix my loading screen problem. First; press "Ctrl+Shift+Esc" to bring up the 'Task Manager' and end task Dota 2.

1. On your desktop screen, click "Start".
2. Type "cmd" on the search box. This would open the MSDos window.
3. In the command prompt, type this commands "ipconfig /release" press 'ENTER', "ipconfig /renew" press 'ENTER', then "ipconfig /flushdns press 'ENTER'
4. Open Dota 2 and try to create a lobby game to confirm if it is successful.
