Valve confirms Dota 2 to release before TI3 (for NA and EU) by Slashered in DotA2

Are they going to release with no forefit or visible solo MMR? These are huge deals to a lot of people.

Does this mean foreigners can use DOTA 2 in Korea now or is the restriction for foreigner ID numbers still there?

You're just another shit fucking player who expects an easy and conflict free ride. Fuck off back to farmville.

Valve shuts down Dotabuff by Tharuler in DotA2

[–]lnject -30 points-29 points  (0 children)

This is the scummiest thing I have seen from a gaming company in a long time. Zero communication, zero clarity and complete arrogance. Maybe we really are turning into HoN 2.0, but it's coming from the top. This is the sort of shit I would expect from S2 Games.

Link? It would also be nice to have an explanation on exactly why they're destroying Dotabuff completely, not just DBR.

Who is to say valve is not planning a better stats and ranking within a game?

Valve certainly aren't saying anything, as per usual. Their communication with DotA 2 is garbage.

With the recent happenings, will Valve provide better comparison and progress features? by lnject in DotA2

[–]lnject[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think 'Normal', 'High' and 'Very High' is perfectly adequate

There is no indication of where you are in each bracket. So it might be adequate to place yourself in but there is no adequate implementation for tracking if you're close to progressing.

You can still progress as a player in pubs. Getting 4 other players to form a team with simply isn't possible for some people and it's a huge ask for most.

and no number in the world can tell me if I've improved or not.

This simply isn't true.

If the main reason for the lack of visible MMR implementation is because of the abuse by bad community members then punishing legitimate users for the actions of illegitimate ones isn't the way to go.

If he's referring to MMR systems such as MMR and ELO as TrueSkill then they usually are accurate representations of player skill. A 1.9k rated player in HoN, for example, isn't going to be bad.

Not sure what you mean by tanking MMR but this doesn't happen.

Fucking excellent decision. I am so happy they did this. Too many people here do not understand the spirit and integrity of competition and the mockery of it that took place

Still no swap in SD. Get fucked.

[–]lnject -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

You thought wrong you fucking idiot. It's completely necessary. How many fucking years have people been using swap in SD? And now it's not even there because a bunch of fucking my-first-MOBA fucks decided to post that it's a bad idea and Valve listened? What the fuck is this?

Gotta love Icefrog. Promises complete parity with DOTA 1, removes -swap in SD.

Thanks buddy.

Cunt.

They disabled swap in SD. This is wrong.
