Dota 2 Beta Thread V: Real Talk Strikes Back [Tutorials]

e: actually, what does this mean exactly?

It's mostly irrelevant I think. I believe tournament organizers are allowed to penalize teams that show up late or whatnot with time reductions for picking in CM and this is what that's referring to. Never seen it used in practice though.

Looking forward to NeoGAF guild, but that won't come till next week it seems (I wonder if you can join more than one…)

And the compendium updates should be good stuff.

It's also nice that they've started to work on particle support for the workshop. Still waiting for the website with the models to be updated though. They're behind, and I'd rather not have to extract Luna myself. Though I'm a ways away from committing to items for her anyway.
 
Wtf is this shit. Not even 1 hero?


On another note:

Anyone else get that annoying as fuck bug, where your framerate drops below 20 for no reason at all? Completely random. I play 60fps constantly, but ever so often it drops low for just a few seconds until it goes back up again.
 
GAMEPLAY
- CM Time Penalty change from 20/50/90 to 30/70/110.
- Fixed it being possible to find out where enemy player cameras were looking.
- Prepared Dota 2 for VAC support.
- NOTE: Guilds will remain disabled on the main client this week. They should be fully live next week.

So it'll be a full release by next week I guess.
 
Lame patch.

Heroes are only part of the equation, how come troll isn't in CM yet, and how come there are still so many gameplay bugs that aren't being addressed?

I hope development picks up after launch, I don't think you can compete with riot (who is already aggressively taking over esports) with a skeleton crew.

I doubt Valve gives two shits about Riot. They will do things their own way at their own pace, like they always have.

Actually yeah, I get this shit from time to time and it's super annoying. It's almost a weird stuttering and then it goes back to normal immediately after. Sometimes I think it's my ping so I'll check it immediately after and it's perfectly fine.
 
Fuck this game's matchmaking. I'm level 30something (that should at least point towards some experience with the game) and I'm still playing with venomancers that cant buy a single support item till they get their ultimate orb (not even the courier), lone druids that cant move independently from their bears and bristlebacks that are level 10 35 mins in the game: and all that in a single match! This thing is just completely broken.
The only thing that is broken here is you
Sounds like you won't man the Fuck up and play support yourself and yet you expect others to do it
Has anyone else noticed how these "dota nerds" are popping up in games lately?

I get these guys on my team that know nothing about how to play the game (map awareness, etc), but know every facet of each skill, and tell the team over voice chat how to play their heroes then rage if the game goes bad. Usually when the guy talks too much in the first few minutes, I just mute them, but it is still annoying.
So like Dr Kirby?

They should. League is making serious in roads in China, Valve's supposed land of milk and honey, while they flail around in a restrictive beta for an incomplete game with no working tutorial.

isnt dota2 that league of legends clone?
They sound like more angry versions of me.
thats why i said 'like'
Losing streaks are the woooorst. Especially when it feels like winning or losing depends on who I get matched with more than my actions

welcome to team games
though maybe you should just carry harder
 
or they could introduce this revolutionary new mechanic and stay ahead of league

where if everybody on a team thinks the game is unwinnable, the game just ends!
 
Yo guys, if you don't see me around too much on dota2 and this thread is because I'm taking a couple of online courses seriously plus some project I have with a bunch of friends. I'm still active.

funny way of saying "this dota community has gotten too salty and toxic for my liking i'm leaving until y'all clean your act up"

i'll play league with you if you want
 
Is it just weeping and gnashing of teeth?
Oh, this is gonna be a pleasant fucking day with their wailing and gnashing of teeth.

So no legion commander until after ti3 I'm guessing? Suppose I'll just play shadow demon some more then..

Yes, I have 120, then I get like a jitter and its like fuck, is my video card dying?
 
NeoGAF guild? Can't fucking wait!

Although I do have to say that right now Scrolls is eating up most of my gaming time right now. *ducks and runs*
 
Artanisix/milkman/ellen_pudge is already planning to make a GAF guild.
