Reality Winner posted:Posting in the third active dota thread on these forums 'active' is a really strong word to use for a thread by a tragically exiled poster that got like two posts a week, and the other thread appears to be a bunch of grown?? men??? commentating live on the actions and achievements of actual children, which this poster honestly wants nothing to do with. this thread, under the wise leadership of respected and known gamer 'wangsbig', will foster a thriving community and breathe life into this dead game and forum

Minorkos posted:i wonder if this new patch is just going to be a replay of 7.00 of people going "wow look at all this crazy new poo poo" and then "wow this is loving terrible" immediately afterwards. at least there are new heroes. one would hope that this starts a trend of regularly released new heroes to make this game seem less like a dead game, but knowing valve they'll just go back to releasing new loot boxes and shuffling numbers around instead I have high hopes for this patch making the game at least bearable, due to easy mode and high ground changes. there has probably never been a patch as bad as the last one so it will at least be a net gain. quote this when i turn out to be wrong

staplegun posted:I'd like to try learning how to play this game for at least the third time now, could anyone suggest some guides for people new to the DOTA? I assume that they haven't made the ingame tutorial any better at not getting you yelled at in games. there's a bunch of youtube videos or whatever you can watch probably but that's a) retarded and b) boring. random every game and read tooltips instead.

Neurolimal posted:compared to my knowledge of other mobas I'm still pretty scrub tier wrt dotes knowledge, is there a real point to meteor hammer I'm missing beyond tower damage/a cheaper abyssal blade for heroes that attack too slow for abyssal blade? It seems like it would be really easy to avoid due to the obvious telegraphed channel time. it gives your team high ground vision, damages the enemy creep wave as it spawns and does guaranteed chip damage to structures. it is good on basically every hero and directly addresses the issues with pushing high ground and how boring it is, the main issue responsible for the death of the videogame dota 2

Neurolimal posted:That makes sense thanks, saw you mentioning "item specifically to counter high ground" and wasn't 100% on which it was since theres a ton of crazy poo poo in this patch glyph making your creeps immune, the removal of base shrines, earlier / stronger siege creeps, meteor hammer are all changes made to aggressively address the high ground issue after it actively and nearly single-handedly murdered this game for years

ILL Machina posted:Not that I expect a cogent response, but what about these changes are chinesey? And by what metric is this game less mechanically deep than lol? idk how someone both deploys the word 'cogent' and then asks what makes something 'chinesey' but I will go into the rest of your post in a desperate effort to save this thread from the gas chamber before the patch comes out. have you seen a league champ lately? every champ has 4 abilities that all do 12 things and employ vector targeting and poo poo it's nuts and I don't know how a new player can even begin to approach that game. Creep/XP changes not actually crazy or something that should be actively considered by most of the playerbase. click creeps. UAM changes not crazy, mostly a non-issue as of last patch when there were basically none and will continue to be. stacking lifesteal unlikely to be worthwhile on anyone because there is an item called satanic in the game.

frajaq posted:What's a good guide to figure out how to survive in off-lane alone, I suck at it guides for this game are dumb & unnecessary probably, just look at a thing that shows you what exp range is and stay within that without dying. if there's a chance to safely (you learn what this is by doing. if you died it wasnt safe) get a creep for the valuable 'gold' resource do it. get the bounty rune every even minute, hell maybe try to get both if the enemy isn't on point with them. consider rotating to perform the 'gank' maneuver to obtain gold and experience for yourself and upwards of four other players

Elman posted:Or giving offlaners and supports tons of gold which means they no longer have to make do with very little gold and xp (I actually enjoyed that aspect of the game a lot! It took effort to play position 5 and still carry the game for your team through good support). this is the big one. everyone is rich through no effort of their own every game now, and they all have some wacky busted talent every 5 levels. it's like one of those custom games you play for like two rounds and uninstall

abandoning is good, as it grants you exclusive access to the thunderdome matchmaking pool against either known scumbags or other members of the enlightened few. it's like conceding except it doesn't mercifully free the rest of your team from the shackles of a lost rear end game of dota two
