As screenshots for Dota 2 are being leaked all over the place, it seems that Valve has decided to get in on the action, celebrating 900 Twitter followers with a brand new, confirmed in-game screenshot of the Doom Bringer.
From beefy tanks to powerful carries, these are the best Strength heroes in Dota 2's Turbo Mode.
Valve has spoken out forcefully against smurfing in Dota 2 after banning more than 90,000 accounts - and targeting their owners.
Pardon my ignorance for never having played this, but why even have the ability to create multiple guest accounts? It seems if there is only one account per player then it would eliminate this smurfing issue.
Probably to get new players hooked on the addictive gameplay loop, more people playing = statistically more people buying battle passes.
Why would seasoned players want to play with lower skill players anyway? Just to owned them? They’re n00bs, what’s the fun in that?
It’s like on COD where they do bad on purpose for a few rounds, to then be place with with bad players to then dominate.
This is human nature. I know people who do this in Dota2, CoD and other multiplayer games. They enjoy the dopamine rush that winning generates.
Following the Dota 2 update that increased the size of the map by 40%, I asked League of Legends EP Jeremy Lee if we can expect similar things for LoL.
I'm so stoked for this game. Hope it comes out soon!
I still don't understand how Valve gets away w/ making a game out of a Blizzard game mod...will this end in blood?
anyone notice that the mini map looks just like the map from LoL?
It would be nice if someone would make a DoTa that doesn't look exactly like the original. Is there some written rule that all this style of game has to look exactly the same.
Eurgh. You know what... no. I don't give a crap how God damn dedicated the original fanbase was, I don't give a crap how cool Dota was in its time and I don't give a god damned fuck whether this game is even good or not because it's not half life 3.
That's it. I'm not doing this anymore. I know valve are brilliant and when they fart they fart pixie dust that lets you fly if you think happy thoughts... but that's it! I'm done indulging valve's obsession with hats and games that aren't half life. Portal 2 was cool but it only made me want god damned answers! I'm tired of games acting like it's perfectly okay to just stop three quarters of the way through a fucking narrative and leave the audience waiting quite literally decades for answers.
Is it me or are games the only form of media that does this? Example, gears of wars? When you think of the narrative arc stretching across the games it's not actually gears of war 1, gears of war 2 etc. It's gears of war episode 1, gears of war episode 2.
Nobody does annoying disjointed broken narratives quite like valve though. Wooo boy can they wind me up. God damned mother fucking g-man. I'm beginning to think there is no answer and it's all just deus machina.
