Support NeoGAF

[perryfarrell]

And how do I know what things are needed for each upgrade? By watching a video I learned that 3 sticks are needed for a wand, but I can't find any mention of that in-game.

If u select the magic wand in the shop, its ingredients are shown in the little window at the bottom.

Just left click the courier to use.

Just realized the new hero will be on the damn test server. So bad ;_;

How naive of you to even assume there's a new hero to be had. It's Valve.

Is a new hero confirmed?

 

[Sibylus]

I await the new bugs with feverish anticipation.

How the hell did meeru get the password/account info of the hongaf account?

Because I was careless and believed in humanity at one point.

 

[picklecannon]

I'm guessing there's going to be 5 new heroes this week. DON'T LET ME DOWN VALVE!

Thanks guys.

Do you have to buy a non-flying courier before a flying courier? Because left-clicking didn't seem to do anything.

Yes.

Wonder what the test client will get.. hopefully at least one new hero.

 

[Gully State]

Wait was Meeru the guy that sold keys that were supposed to go to GAF?

 

[Uriah]

Meeru is the gift that keeps on giving.

 

[bzm]

Wait was Meeru the guy that sold keys that were supposed to go to GAF?

yea

 

[Artanisix]

What gave it away for me was that his Kotoko account has Dota 2 with a bunch of time on it, and then a TON of Valve games with.... zero playtime on them. Who does that unless they're trying to seem like a normal person.

Ineptitude of this level will never cease to be amusing to me.

 

[Schweinehund]

going balls to the walls.

Sylla/Shadow Demon/Lycan.

I have to think that the no hero last patch was only because they delayed one of those three heroes so they could put them all in at the same time.

 

[Ikuu]

:lol, no new hero to test this week. They're releasing the patch to test on Wednesday and then updating on Thursday.

 

[Gully State]

patch is downloading for me..

 

[Archie]

I guess Shadow Demon might be coming soon.

 

[Tenck]

Terrible patch.

 

[JustinBB7]

Sooo the test client is useless 6 days of the week?

 

[Schweinehund]

http://blog.dota2.com/2012/03/the-shadow-grows/

I guess Shadow Demon might be coming soon.

I'm confused.

No patch?

My cognitive dissonance is crazy right now .

 

[Uriah]

At least they are changing the way the test patch process works.

 

[Sibylus]

:lol, no new hero to test this week. They're releasing the patch to test on Wednesday and then updating on Thursday.

I'm of the opinion that Valve should just toss every unfinished hero they have into the test client, barring ones without placeholder models and skills.

But then again, that might scatter the already thin crowd that plays on test. I dunno.

 

[Conceptor]

fuckin meeru lol

Edit: corrected for bzm facts(co)(r)(tm)

 

[Guesong]

So the test client, how useless is it now.

God Valve, smh.

 

[Ikuu]

It really feels like development has slowed right down, barely any changes to the game and when they do patch it's been minor stuff.

 

[Artanisix]

I'm OK with them moving the Test Client to Wednesdays and updating the main client Thursdays. These past few weeks have been hype-less due to the fact that it would take a whole week for a hero to be moved to the main client. This should restore a lot of that original excitement.

Well, I'm definitely sticking with my SD guess.

 

[HenryHSH]

But just because it's not released into the wild doesn't mean development is slowed.

 

[Ikuu]

Like I said, it feels like. Even the patches they have released have been pretty light, this week they fixed some bugs and enabled Bane.

 

[TouchMyBox]

It's funny because I've been playing Dota 2 all week, and it still sounds like you guys are conversing in some ancient alien dialect.

 

[dorkimoe]

Meteorain going 11-2 just says it all.

He kept stealing mine

 

[Swag]

I was having suspicions when he stomped SWAG mid QoP/Zeus and then the way he used to post on Gaf was very similar to his posting in the HoN thread, but even then you can never be sure but then these websites with the same username was pretty much confirmed it I guess.



You can still AFK fountain and not get an abandoned game so I'm guessing you can do that.

In my defense, Zeus doesn't beat Dagger build QoP mid.

 

[Htown]

So, uh...

What's the best way to learn this game? Just came in the thread and have no clue what anyone is talking about.

 

[Meteorain]

That's because you did fuck all!

your fucked

watch the video of what the items do, then pick a hero and watch him play

 

[Procarbine]

You're low tier mid anyway go buy some wards bro.

 

[BeesEight]

And he's banned. Damn.

So was this his original Steam account?

Well butter my butt and call me a biscuit.

I'm really questioning Valve's ability to get this game out on time

Spoiler

damn you Valve Time

. When were they planning on releasing this? 2015? Even if they did one hero a week, they would never make the International 2 assuming it's at the same time this year.

 

[Meteorain]

Read the OP.

It's very insightful on such matters.

 

[dorkimoe]

words hurt

 

[Lactose_Intolerant]

Batrider looks to be made a bit better. Hopefully he gets played more.

 

[Calidor]

Well, looks like they added the S.America region :/ now I'm stuck with 10 min+ queues and loud brazilians
