Shirts = 1-3 weeks
Plushies/balls = 6-9 weeks

I really want that nyx dagon -_-

Gameplay
- Fixed players' current gold being networked to enemy players.
- Fixed Spirit Breaker's charge target being networked to enemy players.
- Picking up an armlet that is toggled on will only grant the buff if you own the armlet.
- Autocast abilities check target type rules consistently. This should prevent Clinkz's searing arrows hitting wards, for example.
- Added Elder Titan, Abaddon, Centaur and Troll Warlord to Captain's Mode.
- Fixed Neutral Thunderhide not using Slam when 3 enemies are nearby.
- Fixed Neutral Thunderhide's Slam not slowing attack speed.
- Ancient Apparition: Frostbite debuff will prevent health gain from levelling up, extra strength or extra max hp.
- Slark: Fixed BKB not removing Pounce's Leash.
- Treant Protector: Fixed Overgrowth affecting couriers.
- Troll Warlord: Fixed Illusions benefiting from Fervor.
- Troll Warlord: Fixed ranged form sometimes being able to bash.
- Weaver's geminate ability no longer activates when attacking wards.
- Weaver's time lapse and Disruptor's glimpse now can rewind things back to before the ability was skilled.

UI
- Runes now draw in the minimap for spectators.
- Increased the penalty for not readying up from 45 seconds to 2 minutes.
- Spectator stats dropdown is unlocked while listening to broadcasters.
- Added a preference and cvar "dota_spectator_use_broadcaster_stats_panel" to allow spectators to have full control over the stats panels.
- Private (friend/guild) lobbies now display their game name so that those browsing lobbies can get more info on what the lobby is for.
- Changed drag-select of units to use the same hit detection as click-select. This fixes a number of issues where units would not get selected.
- Fixed bugs that were allowing edge panning to be enabled during drag-select.
- Reduced CPU usage of drag-select.
- Fixed some newline formatting errors in the combat log.
- Prevented guides for the previously-played hero from erroneously showing up at the start of the next game.
- Added AOE hover indicator for Death Pulse.

Economy
- Added Waldi courier, Ocula ward, 3 HUDs and 14 hero item sets to the store.
- Updated Sniper's workshop model files with improved weighting, including corrected smd files.

Audio
- Fixed bad interactions with some looping sounds and FoW.
- Fixed Reincarnate stinger sometimes playing late when triggered in vision but out of hearing range.
- Fixed some item cast sounds that could be heard through FoW.
- Typing "tu" in chat no longer triggers hero "thank you" lines.

Mac/Linux
- Fixed crash when using certain spells / illusions on Intel HD4000. [Mac]
- Fixed intermittent crash when cmd-tabbing. [Mac]
- Fixed issues with older PulseAudio installations. [Linux]
- Improved stability when showing webpages.
- Allow setting language of audio and text separately, through Steam. (Text comes from Steam's language, audio comes from the language set in Dota 2's properties on Steam)
- Made Dota2 respond to window manager requests to close it.
- Fixes to make Dota2 work on a broader set of video cards on Linux
- Fixed key repeat to work in text entry windows.
- Fixed loading screens to show an image instead of a black screen
- Fixed a bug preventing multiple users from playing Dota2 (at different times) on a machine.
- Fixed sounds not working when a matchmaking game is ready to start. Added a desktop notification on Linux
- Added XBox 360 spectating controller support.
- Fixed crash on hero selection screen on Linux.
- Fixed a rendering bug when turning off Specular in advanced video settings.
- Fixed mouse offset bug and window size/aspect ratio issue when moving from full screen to windowed modes.

Guess they were holding centaur back on purpose for some reason.

Excited to see how these heroes fit into the meta, all four of them have good potential.

I'll let Dr Kirby handle it. There's so many items from the last month added to the test client all at once that it's really a mess.

Patch on test client is 493MB holy crap.
Click to expand...

remember, this test client also includes the couple of patches we had right before TI3 that never made it to test. So when they say 14 new sets, they're actually shipping like 30 to the Test Client and so it's a big one.

It won't be as big tomorrow when it hits the main client.

ok this is fucking dumb. people are joining games and then dcing before they begin. it started happening after some shitter posted about it not being punishable on leddit. pretty sure these idiots are doing it just to troll people. the game should give you a cooldown once you do that, the same way it forces you to wait once you don't accept a match

happened like 3 times in a row now

haha Disruptor glimpsing people before they skilled something is hilarious

I took that to mean that Weaver/Dusruptor can now glimpse the full time back, even if they just skilled the ability to do so, say, 1 second ago.

If you can unskill opponents, that's just one more reason fir me to love Disruptor. (Someone has to, right?)

He's great fun. Push a tower, wait for someone to TP in and send them right back. Love that.

Finally glad to see those heroes in CM. I'm particularly interested in how Centaur and Elder Titan will be used competitively. I've thought Centaur was fine for a long time, not sure why they held those guys back for so long, but Abaddon was understandable though.

LC has lip syncing scripts, but no subtitles. However it means her lines are done and they just didn't ship the subtitles.

This means she is essentially done with major work, and only minor polishing left. She is pretty clearly coming next week.

actually all of the sets except Nyx look...bland. Like I wouldnt want to spend money on any of these. I can barely tell the difference between the set and model for Morphling and Queen of Pain
