DotA on PTR 1.30.1

[thripkiller666]

Hey all, trying to rally some activity to download the Test Realm of WC3 so we can test DotA and get this game to not crash anymore.

It would be cool to get some people on here to play some rounds so that there are better records of crashed games.

I'm shocked more people aren't supporting this... This is the best way for our voices to be heard and for blizzard to take action... Or at the very least give us a damn answer on whether they're going to fix it or if we need to ourselves.

First off, how do we get into the PTR if we wanted to help? And second, do we have any concrete answers from Blizz about patch fixes? I saw that they had 6.85n working in the most recent PTR, but I can't confirm when that will roll out.

I played 6.83c by myself yesterday as PL (I figured solo, the multiple images would stress the game as much as I could by myself) - surprisingly I did not crash at all. I took about 25 minutes to fuck around and no crash or framerate drop (like what happens before a crash).

Maybe they fixed it. Maybe it isn't loaded enough.

My battle.net user ID is harvest if anyone downloads and wants to test with me, shoot me a message.

As far as I read, from what little has been released from the Blizz team, is that they are aware of the custom game crashes and that in the 1.30.1 PTR they said they addressed custom game crashing.
