Windows 10: Dota 2

Is anyone else here having any issues running Dota 2 and getting reduced performance in comparison to Windows 8.1?

I'm getting extremely low fps often to the point of it being a slide show, where I was getting a stable 40 fps in Windows 8.1.

Have tried both graphics drivers given to me by Windows update and reinstalling from AMD website as well.

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

I understand that you’re facing issue were you see black screen when playing this game I will make sure to help you with this issue.

As a workaround, try to run the game in Windows Compatibility mode.

Uninstall and reinstall the Game in compatibility mode:

a) Download the Game

b) Right-click on the Game setup file and click on ‘properties’.

c) Click on the ‘compatibility’ tab and check the box ‘Run this program in compatibility mode for’ and select Windows 8 operating system from the drop down.

d) Click on ‘Apply’ and click ‘OK’ and run the file to install it.

Make older programs compatible with this version of Windows

Most programs created for earlier versions of Windows also work in this version of Windows, but some older programs might run poorly or not at all. If a program written for an earlier version of Windows doesn't work correctly, you can try changing
the compatibility settings for the program, either by using the Program Compatibility Troubleshooter or manually choosing compatibility settings.

Hope this information helps and let us know the status of the issue we will be glad to help you further.

Thanks.

 

I'm on the same train, on Win 7/8/8.1, I get 60+ FPS's, and on 10 i get like 30-40ish and a lot of stutters.

I already updated my drivers twice and still nothing.

AGH... D=

 

I'm wondering if maybe it has something to do with the version of Source 1 that Dota 2 is using. Dota 2 Reborn is using Source 2 and I don't experience the low fps and constant stuttering as I would on original Dota 2.

As for Source games go, original Dota 2 is the only Source game where I have this issue. Team Fortress 2, Garry's Mod and Left 4 Dead 2 all work amazingly well.

 

I haven't tried DotA 2 reborn on this Win10 installation, I'll check it when I get home tonight.

 

Correction to my previous post, Garry's Mod does suffer from really bad stuttering as well with 40-50 fps.
