Maximizing Dota 2 Performance: New Account vs. Existing Profile Analysis

2024-04-05 08:00:00

When playing on a new account, Dota 2 performance is significantly higher than when running the game on the same PC with similar settings on an existing profile for a long time. This was reported by reddit user Kuroyukihime1, and Valve developer Jeff Hill asked him to provide more data regarding the problem.

The author of the topic stated that he tested the performance of Dota 2 from different accounts on a PC with Intel Arc A770 Graphics in a closed lobby without other heroes and the use of cosmetic items, giving the character simple commands like moving around the map. In such conditions, on the main account he received a figure of 118 frames per second, and on the new account – 197 FPS.

This difference in performance interested Valve employee Jeff Hill, who often communicates with Dota 2 fans on reddit. He did not try to explain the situation, but only asked to share more extensive data regarding the problem. Users, including the author of the topic, suggested that the difference in FPS might be a bug in the Source engine, since similar situations have already been observed in the past, including in CS:GO. In addition, theories have been put forward that the number of frames per second may be affected by the load on the inventory and friends list on Steam.

Previously, a Dota 2 fan under the nickname MadCows18 proposed a list of heroes who need to update their models first. The first on his list were Mirana, Morphling, Dragon Knight and Windranger.
