I was really hoping they'd release the Mac version with the launch

Oh well, it says in the FAQ the Mac and Linux versions will be available soon

 

[Skab]

Good luck to everyone with getting enough Valve Points to unlock the heroes.

What?

I'm really going to miss this thread after it's sent to the never never void of gaming community. It was fun everyone.

 

[GregLombardi]

I don't understand how a company can "release" a game without any major changes, updates, etc. It seems so asinine to me.

Use Subscriptions. It doesn't matter where a thread is located once you learn this.

He means the general traffic will die and we will slowly devolve into a group of 5-10 people bitching about Treant and PL.

I doubt that. Doto is too big now! It's finally a real game!

The game has been in beta for years. It's not like the were waiting for some critical bug fixes. They were waiting for the hardware to be set up and ready.

[Chrisness]

why not just play it on windows?

I don't want to pay for Windows, and my Macbook Air has limited SSD space for a Windows partition.

Thanks, I'll check it out.

Classic. Valve rewarding people for making as many smurf accounts as they possibly could.

I hope four is enough for level 2.

Okay I'll do that. I'll pick up tLoU for my 360 while I'm at it. Has Valve said why a OSX client is taking so long?

 

[SteveWinwood]

I actually genuinely gave out like 5 invites, I hope that's enough for lvl 3...

Spoiler

It won't be, how dumb.

I didn't give my invites to just some heartless robot.

I gave them to friends that needed or wanted them.

I used them as intended

[Kard8p3]

So I bought the compendium..can I level up my courier now? If so, how?

 

[KingKong]

So what does the bloodstone actually do?

I got two of them for some reason, I gave away 3 copies

 

[sibarraz]

Will the dotabot get all the steam library?

Also, when will the achievements be released?

 

[Thermite]

ok valve, where the fuck is my bloodstone? I gave out literally every invite I got, have about 1000 hours logged in, and had this shit since 2011. don't fuck with me

Yeah I have two Precursors as well. Sweet.

 

[HomShaBom]

Trade me one, kthx.

GAF, is it bad that I'm debating buying a tournament ticket just for this silly chameleon courier? Help me

 

[Volodja]

I've received 2 Precursors as well.

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

GAF, is it bad that I'm debating buying a tournament ticket just for this silly chameleon courier? Help me

If you don't buy it you're #killingesports

 

[Soule]

Whaaa, I gave out invites but no bloodstone for me

 

[Dec]

GAF, is it bad that I'm debating buying a tournament ticket just for this silly chameleon courier? Help me

Aren't most of the couriers more expensive than the Ticket + courier anyways? I buy tournament tickets to actually watch the tournaments and some of the couriers are great and worth more than $8 or whatever.

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

I didn't get a bloodstone. Booted up the game to check if that had something to do with it (vs. just looking online), but no dice. Though if some people got 2, then I guess something is wonky with the system.

I'm not sure if I ever actually gave out an invite though. But everyone who was in the beta should still get the basic one at least.

 

[Conceptor]

29 invites, yay level 3 bloodstone!

 

[sibarraz]

What's the use of that blood stone?

It will mark some cosmetic difference if I wear it?

 

[cheezcake]

No Bloodstone here

why Gaben, why...

I for sure gave some invites and haven't gotten anything so my guess is wonky.

 

[BraXzy]

Hehe what are the chances, the game released on my birthday awesome!

Kinda suprised at the lack of a major update/ cinematic or something to coincide with the release, I hope they have some suprises up their sleeves.

 

[Pureauthor]

Pretty sure the level of the Bloodstone is based on time you've been in the beta, not invites.

 

[BeesEight]

I for sure gave some invites and haven't gotten anything so my guess is wonky.

The halos were wonky when they were distributed too. Keep calm and carry on. Things'll get fixed in Valve Time.

(Don't have my stone either.)

 

[AnathemicOne]

I've been in the beta for a year and haven't received a bloodstone of any kind

 

[The Last One]

I got 2000 hours of DOTA and no bloodstone for me =(
