i wanted a beta so bad like a month ago ..



but after seeing the international (dota 2) and WDC (dota 1) it's reaaally clear that dota1 it's way better atleast till now than dota 2 .. the second one needs to get all the heroes to be as awesome as dota 1 is right now, so i guess i can wait for the release of it :p.

The community can get pretty garbage at sometimes, the important thing is to not get sucked into it. At this point i see greifing/flaming as a part of the game. I know it's ridiculous and can get frustrating sometimes, but what you have to do is just ignore it and get on with the next game. There is nothing you can do about it, and if you take part of it, then you're just as much of a retard as they are.

DotA 2 is boring since you can't go insult your rivals everygame because you get muted.

I wish I had more invites, choosing 2 friends was hard enough.

Of course they are similar in some points, they are fuckin MOBA's, how 2 games with the same genre aren't suppose to have similarities?

The point being made is that one was inspired by the original DotA and the other is quite literally a remake of it. Accusing the remake of copying the game inspired by the original that the remake is a remake of... is silly.

Question, isn't IceFrog working for Valve right now for DotA 2?

It almost sounds like Adobe criticizing the artist who used Photoshop to create a drawing.

In this moment, IceFrom is working for himself on Warcraft III: DotA and for Valve on DotA 2.

That's exactly what it is. I think Blizzard is just out to piss people off now.

Just means Blizzard and anyone else would be able to name their game 'DoTA'.

Someone told me Bristleback would be one of the last heroes to be readmitted into DotA 2. I cried.

techies ruins the game by either:
1. being a complete deadweight on the team not doing shit excvept planting some mines getting a few novelty kills

2. surviving till late game with substantial farm being able to shut down ANY push and prolong a game far beyond what it should be, usually winning it for the team because of how broken stasis are

Every hero can fail so if played by a noob. I have already seen CM carrying (it failed ofc).

Get a gem/necronomicon?

You have creeps/ranged heroes (if you don't play a terrible pub) on your side. They can destroy mines with one hit. I don't see a problem here.
And scouting/warding is very effective, too. You will know where Techies has his mines and where NOT to go. Yes, you can use your brain. You don't really HAVE to run in his traps.

I got this recently, but I am absolutely new.
Took me three CPU games to figure out you buy items by right clicking, not left clicking >.<

Also, how do you deny (correct term, right?) your own creeps?
I right click them, but I don't kill them.

they broke shit... my recipe for assault cuiras wouldnt complete itself, and the courier will not retrieve items for me. i have to manually drop them and pick them up... so weird... all other courier commands work aside from transfer items

I still don't understand why I have no keys to give away, I've been in the beta since it started. Is there any reason for that?

Edit: Also Glass, have you tried installing Dota2 from a different steam client? I read on the forums that doing that solved crashing problems for some people.
