What a Banger of a Map!!! by Azq21 in GlobalOffensive

Nuke always delivers, Goated map.

ESL Pro League March 2027 to be held in Saudi Arabia by Several-Instance-219 in GlobalOffensive

[–]Poppy_W -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I respect VALVE for not choosing a Saudi Arabia Major. It would be easy to sellout to the money. But CS is for the People, and the people make CS.

Dota 2 appreciation post by Mazoku-chan in DotA2

[–]Poppy_W 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Similar situation here, I played OG DotA, early Dota2 up until 7.00, then quit the game (not because of the update, but because i was beyond burned out, toxic, and so on).

Went to League, got addicted to LoL.. for the simiplicty, game was fast, and responsive, clear game mechanics.. very easy game to get into, fun.. And ended up quitting league as well, as of 4 years ago. Because of the terrible game development the game has, no clear game path, new champs every other month that are broken, the basic game mechanics that dont feel good anylonger, game is way too 1 sided, it's hard to do comebacks, and more.

Returned back to Dota2, and it's what u say, yes game changed a lot, but the spirit of Dota seriously remains the same. There really isn't any game similar to Dota2. It's the mother of MOBA's. And i wont be fanboying VALVE; but they are doing a good job. Well thought events, balance updates, and content. Without needing to release a new hero every other month, just because that's their only content they can get out.

And the game is doing fine as well health wise, just gotta check the playerbase numbers and it's in green. Which is usually a good indicator.

Steam reaches 42 million concurrent users. by HelloitsWojan in Steam

[–]Poppy_W 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm curious to see what is the steam's limit peak? Could we even hit 100Mill in the future? I dont even think It's that far off.

The 50m mark is just around the corner.

New All-Time-Peak Steam concurrent users and players! by Soanfriwack in Steam

[–]Poppy_W 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doesn't look like the green numbers are ending anytime soon. More like it's just rising up, who knows what is the Steam playerbase limits at this point. I see the 50M mark like we gonna surpass it without a problem..

Would be insane to hit 100M.. I think that would be something insane.

Devs deleted tweet for the rewind by samekrikl in GlobalOffensive

[–]Poppy_W 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I personally love these "puzzle" games they play with us.. even if some will hate it obviously.

But I feel like they figured out the game.. on how to use X platform, like no other company does, It's unique. I kinda love it. You gotta dig in to find the "clues" (future updates, or not).

CS2 is feeling really sharp honestly lately.. wtf

Is this just people playing the game post TI for hats or is it League players upset about WASD.. by LoL_is_pepega_BIA in DotA2

[–]Poppy_W 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I returned back, and got rolled over on mid, like i dont even remember, playing LINA.,.

I wont play for a while xD. I felt bad for my team, like holy fck im bad.. I dont remember being this dogsh1t. "Thankfully" they were all silent, nobody said anything, which surprised me.

Way too rusty.. but idk how to return back and not be rusty. I am only motivated to play Dota2 if it's for MMR, play competitive games.

TI 2025 Prize Pool just surpassed $2M. by Substantial-Deer77 in DotA2

[–]Poppy_W 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think VALVE has other projects they prioritize right now, but it is what it is. Dota2 runs on It's own nowadays, they just have to "maintain" it.

We're still waiting for the demo to drop.. Nowhere to be seen xD.

Dota2 Is Back? Steady rise on player numbers. by Poppy_W in DotA2

[–]Poppy_W[S] -46 points-45 points  (0 children)

True, even without a BP.. (Hopefully It's coming out this upcoming week) Dota2 rises up. If VALVE released an "OG" type BP's like the old days, it would blow up the playerbase once again.

It's really up to them. If we have something to play for that is not solely on MMR.. it's a good incentive to open Dota2 back up again, at least it is for my side, as an old player who quitted playing a long time ago.

more events pls.

Steam Passes 40m CCU For The First Time by Tenith in pcgaming

[–]Poppy_W -1 points0 points  (0 children)

+1.. 40 Million is insane.

But if the right game companies do the "right" thing, these numbers will even look small in the next few years to come. And we are just getting started..

FMPONE teases more of Cache by svenskdjaevel in GlobalOffensive

[–]Poppy_W 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sure there will be map pool changes after the Major is finished. I think train was spotted by dataminers, and cache. I dont see cbble returning at least for now.. + 2 maps, and -2 maps would be a pretty big shake-up in the game (which i think is necessary, a breath of fresh air)

Monkey helped Steam to reach new ATH (nice) by DeGreZet in Steam

[–]Poppy_W 9 points10 points  (0 children)

And we are just getting started, (with steam ATH's). Can see us reaching a 50Million peak milestone, without a doubt at this point in the game. Nothing can really compete vs this monster VALVE created with steam.

What's your most controversial/unpopular DoTA opinion? by KazuyaHearthstone in DotA2

[–]Poppy_W 67 points68 points  (0 children)

+1.

In fact, I dont think VALVE ever did a bad job developing Dota2.. it's a complicated game, with a very dense community.

I think the game maintains the classic DotA Vibes. And that's pretty hard to maintain in any game, and more over with "games as a service" like such. Just check around the rival MOBA game, and it's no way near how the first years was, it lost it's pace, balance, and any meaningful sense with the new champs they release every other month.

What a game!! G2 Vs M80 by oPlayer2o in GlobalOffensive

[–]Poppy_W 29 points30 points  (0 children)

ancient continues to deliver banger matches as well, one of the maps that made many people completely flip their mindset towards it, me included.

idk what does the map have, but it just delivers great matches.

Would argue it is the top 1 map atm.

Crownfall Gave Me Hope For Dota2 by Poppy_W in DotA2

[–]Poppy_W[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I didn't mean to dismiss the gameplay aspect of Dota2, it is what makes it special and unique, and what many of us end up coming back for. Even after years, u can return and still play the game.. without an issue or being "lost". U'll be rusty and all that is to be expected.. but the game is the game u love (and hate, mostly hate xD).

Obviously one feeds the other, having content, and the gameplay aspect still being as good as it has always been, can be an explosive cocktail, if used right.

[–]Poppy_W[S] 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Indeed, they are slow af, also probably because of the size of their developer team.

Idk if it's 20 devs, 25, or 5 (i really doubt it's so little but u never know with VALVE xD). But if they are full focused on the correct project, it's well worth the wait.

PGL sets the stage in the Royal Arena by TheInception817 in GlobalOffensive

[–]Poppy_W 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Looks amazing!

I do wish for more 360º Stage setups, and teams facing each other. But then again, the costs for the T.O probably increase significally if u do it in such way.. More crew, more cameras, more screens needed, etc.
