Done. Good luck with the presentation!

Nice editing but all the slowmo you put in the video makes it a bit boring after a while.

You can run it on dota 2 with fullscreen and good fps but not with the quality on highest and with all the effects on.You wont have to put down the quality at the lowest setting possible but just a...

Having an almost identical machine I can tell you that Dota 2 runs perfect on highest settings even with several other programs on like Skype and media players.



Probably, but you'll most...

Because a clan system is not important, it's something that can be added later when the game is close to be/already released.

Stop nitpicking and just enjoy the commentary. It's a show, not a class.

Asians are, and pretty much always have been, the best of the best in dota so I'm not really surprised that Na'vi's getting demolished. This is what I pretty much expected to happen already when the...

That you have a Kill/Death (K/D) ratio of 2.69 (2.69 kills per death), a Kill+Assist/Death ratio of 4.54 (4.54 kills per death), your average gold per minute (GPM) being 454.7, you have 75 wins and...

Funny thing, LoL actually has maphacks.

Something people should understand is that it's impossible to create a game which is impossible to cheat on. What matters is how well you can stop the...

Yes you can and always will be able to create maphacks that wont be detected (for a while) by Valve. That goes for all games ever created.



Yes, because everyone that hack servers obviously get...

No because it could just as well be abused by people that actually should get the abandons.

I really don't get why so many people fear to get abandons from disconnects, crashes, etc. It's not like...

Maybe you should for one moment consider the fact that what you would call fun doesn't apply to all human beings. They didn't do something that shows "the very basest evils of human form", all they...

Mostly good designs, headress should get a bit more attention since it never really looked good in the first place. Not too sure about the new vanguard, I can sorta see where they're going but it...

Most likely at friday evening/night, european time.

Most people that are smart doesn't listen to terible music because they know what makes music good is if THEY enjoy it, not if OTHERS do.


That makes no sense. If it has tunes and someone listens...

The International in-game tickets will most likely have a price on them. It really makes no sense from a business stand point to make them free because the only people that will watch it in-game is...

And where can we find the stream?

EDIT: Thanks for the link, will be sure to atleast check it out.

No, a large part of the join dota community just doesn't care about it.

More than win/loses? Possibly.
Efficient movements and action per minutes? No.

Programming a fair matchmaking is already a difficult task, making it predict what and how many "efficient...

The irish accent is great, it's so nice to hear a female warrior that has some mystique to her that doesn't speak like she's trying to seduce everyone she's talking to. I don't see any problem with a...

If the opponents are fine with it then, and only then, should stand-in's be allowed.

Gotta hunt for more golden (The International) tickets.

Pretty much this. A forfeit function was already added in HoN and LoL and the result was far from satisfying. I rather have to sit in fountaint an extra minute or two, browsing some websites while...

Juggernaut.
Because spinning is for cool people.

Or because there's now a bigger pool of people, there's also going to be more people that abandon.
You could also just be very unlucky with the matchmaking.

No, your abandon is not screwing you over.

Do like the rest and save money. Sad truth is, you can't always have everything served on a silver plate.

Because it's almost near impossible to estimate how long a emergency maintance will last. Could be anywhere from 10min to a day.

Yes because I actually have money that I'm willing to give to organizers to provide more, bigger and better tournaments in the future.

EDIT: #39 basically sums it up.

Or teams could make strategies that he fits in, a late game sniper is something that isn't the easiest to deal with. I agree that a remake could be nice on him but I don't see it as a number one...

Isn't this what every company tries to do?

On a more serious note, it would be nice to see some bigger organizations to pick up Dota 2 as one of their games but at the end of the day I don't care...

Gotta disagree with you on most points. I love a lot of the new visual, especially when it comes to the heroes. Storm spirit and Kunkka was some of my favorite heroes in Dota 1 so I'm happy to see...

No, it's not worth it.

Bounty Hunter. Just getting a few items will make you able to run around the map and kill off everyone in a couple of hits, it's such a great feeling to kill off a support that stands next to the...

Very well deserved victory from TongFu, can't wait to see them in The International.

Only problem is that Valve doesn't host the CS 1.6 servers, that's done by the players.

I used the same ping on Dota 1 as Dota 2, not two seperate ones. I didn't do like you did in your example and used 50 ping in Dota 1 and 70-120 in Dota 2.



No, that's why I said the experience...

And Valve don't care if teams play on LAN or not during this tournament because, after all, this is an online tournament.

Life's unfair, some people will be able to play on LAN and some wont.

I did the comparison before posting, playing on equal ping (using the ping command in Dota 2 to show ping) will give you a bigger delay on Dota 1, which was the point of the post.

What games give...

As HolyMaster just said, you can't compare the numbers. Try to play with 150 ping on RGC and then to play with 150 ping on Dota 2 and see which one had the highest delay (hint: RGC).

Had a hillarious game where I got plenty of gold from farm and assists as Natures prophet and decided to go for dagon 5, etheral blade and aghanim. Made for some hillarious ganks with etheral blade +...

What makes a game competitive is how much sponsors are willing to pay, better marketing for them means more tournaments. What a company looks for is basically if the game is multiplayer and PvP, how...

Yes, The International is something absolutly horrible that plagues the Dota 2 community because it's ment to market the game. This will result in Valve earning money which is their goal in the end,...

Valve wanted teams from all over the world and did a pretty good job of balancing out the invites, Europe got just as many invites as SEA and China so what's the problem? Asia is a lot bigger and...

If you honestly think Dota 2 is nearly the same as HoN/LoL then you really gotta buy some glasses. There's no hereos you can buy, you get all for free. The cosmetic stuff are parts, allowing you to...

Nice idea. Can't wait to see what more is to come.

They probably choose based on what teams they think has performed the best in Dota 2 and Dota 1 with the condition that they'll invite about the same amount of teams from each of the four main...

Difference is that you're talking about a team, honoring a player, and this is more about Valve honoring a player from a team by changing the name. It's a big difference.

In my opinion it's up to...

There's plenty of players that play the same heroes really good which would make this more of a popularity competition.
And all in all, I just think it's a stupid thing to do. A player that's really...

1. I really don't see the problem with russian's not knowing english, they do know commonly used terms like "ss", "def", "mid" etc so what's the problem? It's not like you'll be using a whole lot...

They got much to improve but they've shown themselves to be pretty good, especially in executing teamfighting combos.

Looks good, can't wait to see the in-game model.

I doubt he'll be all too popular in the european scene, might be some teams like Keita or mTw that might pick him up.
On the other hand, Asian and SEA scene might pick him up a lot more frequently.

When you rush divine rapier on riki.

People really take those streams way to serious.

I think you might misjudge the way the teams get picked for The International. I highly doubt Iceforg is the one who does all calls, he works now for Valve which means that the Dota team is the one...

Don't see why people complain about iG. Yes, they haven't played that much but they were a great team in dota 1 and they got plenty of time to adapt to dota 2. Also, there isn't that many chinese...

I highly doubt that the wc3 dota maps would be illegal because they came first and I'm pretty sure Blizzard would make a lot more noise if that was the case (coincidering they "own" it).
On the...

That's some really fancy stage.

A very strong skill allthough it lasts for 19 seconds which means you have to wait for 9-10 seconds before the damage is on par with other, non-dispellable, DoTs. It gives me plenty of room to...

He could need a bit of extra stats but other than that so is he a great hero. I think the reason why he isn't picked up so much in competitive play is that he's way to dependant on his static link to...

Coincidering how many that already streams, I find it hard to see how it actually work. People don't really tend to like donating before they actually get something. 1$ is not a lot of money but I...

Liked them both a lot. Lion now looks more devilish and Vengeful just looks overall better (not that I had any problems with her in the first place).

Plenty of good teams but I think that AL or M5 will take the win.

According to the changelog so were there no zoom in, atleast not any intentional. Thank god for that. Also, the item icons aren't final, they'll keep on updating them over the next few weeks.

The HUD and item icons is such an improvement from the past ones. There's somethings that could be tweaked like the size of the sword and give a bit more width for the portrait but overall, it looks...

I highly doubt that Icefrog would screenshot his own e-mail, with HoN up, and having mail Guinsoo, Pendragon and Maliken recieved in the same 4min interval.
Just seems fake to me.
