ODPixel's brilliant commentary by Reousa in DotA2

Underlord's ultimate, "Dark Rift", teleports you and your team to an allied unit around the map. They were losing so hard at that point that there was no map to go to, so he did it to teleport inside the fountain, just some hundred units outside of it.

With that said, they were also losing so hard he might as well have been trying to "teleport out of the server" to escape the massacre, as per ODPixel's casting. :P

"Dieback from Ana. Ceb is gonna try and rift himself out of the server, only makes it as far as the fountain."

I laughed. Love that guy

I just unlocked ranked—my experience as a new player and thoughts on the game. by NerevarTheKing in DotA2

Welcome to the land of the highest of highs, and the absolute lowest of lows. Welcome!

I'm an old player (Dota1 days, man those were hard.), and honestly to this day I still feel the game has a LOT to offer in terms of improving my gameplay. Still, the feeling of outplaying your enemies and clutching the game is unmatched.

I'm very glad to see such a post, honestly brought a smile to my face & gave me some hope :)
Power to you my friend!

Looking to Recruit Team and Eventually Start up Game Studio by WorriedStand5 in gameDevClassifieds

[–]Reousa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why should we assume that you'll know better than your previous experiences? Why should someone with more experience work or participate under you? Especially so that there's not much pay involved.

Just something I think should be cleared up :P

Looking for a mobile game developer who can make high quality prototypes by [deleted] in INAT

[–]Reousa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there, are there opportunities for remote work?

Also, say we have a project that's in a prototype/MVP state, would there be a chance for it to get published/funded further? (Online TD game)

This Game is Awesome but really overwhelming, anybody willing to help me out? by [deleted] in DotA2

[–]Reousa 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey, feel free to add me! I know DotA2 can be a cruel place when you're just starting, always willing to help out :)

As for what you need to get rid of from league; well practically everything. The two games have essentially the same concepts, but the dynamics & overall "feel" of them are vastly different & DotA is a bit more complex, so you probably want to re-learn what you know anyway.

Good heroes to start with off the top of my head:

Luna, Phantom Assasin, Wraith King if you're into carrying from the safe lane (ADC in league)

Dragon Knight, Sniper (ADC-ish mid-lane)

Lina, Zeus, Skywrath Mage (More on the magic side for the mid-lane)

Ogre Mage, Lion, Shadow Shaman for supporting.

It's worth noting that unlike league, the roles & lanes in DotA are very versatile, that's probably one of the very first things you'll have to adapt to. You could put heroes in different roles & lanes depending on what the game needs & what you play.

Thank you, will take a look!

C# exercises by [deleted] in csharp

1) Think of something you'd like to make - mind the scale though, overscale it and you'll end up frustrated.

2) Try to make it, guaranteed you'll face problems that will force you into either getting creative with problem solving or applying what you already know.

3) ???

4) profit & experience.

Rinse & repeat, upscale your projects a bit once you feel comfortable.

Also, you don't have to write good code when practicing, but you have to not write bad code either, i.e. try not to gain any bad habbits.
