5 min reconnect is to low

[Goran]

I am now in an infinite loop of low priority becouse of the 5 min recconect. My computer crash when I play Dota and only Dota and guys didnt wait me and game put me on low priority. Now I cant get out of it becouse in those 5 games I got at least 1 crash and nobody wait anybody at all especially in low priority and I am in infinite loop of 5 games low priority becouse of this. It took me 7 minutes to get back to game from a crash and i play like 15 games already got to 1 game and than crash and im back to 5 again. I dont even want to play this game becouse of this. I cant get out of this uter crap of low prior only becouse of this 5 min. Not everybody got SSD or money to buy new computer. I know nobody give a crap and nothing will change but I just want to say that. 5 min recconect is uter crap for ppl. with computers that dont get into game in time.

So u want 9 players to wait every game for you like 7-10 mins because you´re playing with a shitty pc?

You are not very smart I see nor your mathematic is your best side. Try again.

[Jigglypuffz]

Play against bots and stop ruining other people's game because you have shitty pc. You're not the center of the universe despite what your parents probably told you.

easy maths for me... 9 is higher than 1

What Jigglypuffz said. Yeah let's change the whole game so few people with tech problems won't have problem. And wtf are you saying about ssd. I got a shitty lapotp of 400 euro with intel graphics and 1.80 proccesor and it never takes me more that 5 minutes to reconect. +you got some pauses in some cases

[Noo]

1. You don't get low priority from one abandon.
2. It was your machine's fault, your problem.
3. 5 mins is more than enough if you don't have some old PC.

And ppl. wander why community in Dota is terrible. Now we know. I rest my case.

[zitapis]

I guess they don't "wander" anymore cause you showed how ignorant and selfish some people like you are

'Is given 5 minutes' wants to take about 10? lol... You're just selfish 5 minutes is alot and enough time. Call your ISP up and if it's your PC build a new one. I had the same prob when I started playing. But I knew where to aim my gun loaded with insults.

It's funny as well cause no one has brought up whether they have an SSD or not. I don't. I can't afford one either for my PC build. 'Not everybody got SSD or money to buy new computer' running dota2 barely takes anything. I played on my laptop I set everything to minimal, was mostly my internet though. Neways. Don't act like you're the only one that has some sort of struggle. I saved up a whole year to build a pc.

As far as internet goes victims of circumstance and environment abound. My ISP does well enough that I can play on my nearest server with a very nice tolerable connection. Anything other then that and I should expect atleast 200-300 ms worth of lag. It takes skill to learn to compensate for it.

Lots of people before you have ended up in Low-P whether it's pc or internet. It's not something worth crying about. 5 minutes suffices.

Closing this since everyone is just flaming OP and this really has nothing to do with development anyways.

OP: You need to build a new computer. Technology continues to grow and it grows at an incredibly fast pace. You simply cannot expect games to cater to low-end, old PCs anymore. Until then you will have to either get used to playing in LPQ or stop playing altogether until you have a stable internet connection and/or better computer.
