As one player points out, this is because these major changes have been introduced over a too short period of time. Moreover, gamers also complain that Valve didn’t have enough patience to thoroughly test the update and receive more feedback on it. Apart from these changes gamers don’t agree with, the recent Dota 2 Patch 7.00 also brings its fair share of issues, with players reporting that they can’t download and install the patch, Dota 2 crashes, and more.

Dota 2 Patch 7.00 issues

Dota 2 lags, FPS rate drops

This is the first problem that gamers notice after they hit the play button. Dota is affected by constant lag, sometimes so bad that it prevents fans from actually playing the game. Gamers also report that Dota 2’s FPS rate often drops to as low as 20 FPS in game. Prior to installing the update, they usually got around 90-110 FPS. There are no workarounds available to fix these bugs. It appears that the only solution is to wait for the optimization patch to come out.

Dota 2 crashes

Players report that Dota 2 crashes on launch, right after the logo appears on the screen. The game opens for a second, only to completely close shortly afterward.

Stall fails

Quite a significant number of players report they can’t install the Dota 2 Update 7.00 on their computers. The update process often gets stuck half way through. Other gamers also report that the update takes forever to install after reaching 100%. SPONSORED

Dota 2’s user interface is too small

Many players complain that the HUD is too tiny. Checking various game-related information is quite a difficult task due to the small font size.

Shadow Blade doesn’t make you invisible

Shadow Blade makes you invisible when you attack or cast a spell. However, it appears that the latest Dota 2 update breaks Shadow Blade, making players visible for about a second.

Dota 2 chat issues

There are various chat bugs affecting Dota 2 Update 7.00. Some players can’t access the chat feature at all, while others need to scroll to its bottom manually because the chat auto scrolls to top.
