Dota 2 - Steam

It's pretty much exactly the same except for graphics, so there isn't really a fresh start.

With any luck it'll be more polished. Seems they've done up the interface too though its a little confusing atm. Had a quick 1v1 practice game, picked the Dwarven Sniper up against the Stormbringer or whatever his name was, kinda looks like the pandaran brewmaster. His voice is annoying as hell for a Dwarf >< Did well early game cos Nightwoolf specced wrong, mid-game he was thrashing me since his skills let him chase me down and his teleport broke my assassinate so I could never finish him off, end-game my damage won out in the end.

Definitely has potential.

I got in! Now it's time to get yelled at.

Busting a gut for beta

Still nothing....

Anyone know when the next wave of invites go out?

sniffy · 9 Nov 2011 at 12:05

Damn, totally forgot to fill out the survey part. Hopefully will be included in the next wave.

Dunno if this is against the rules... but if anyone who does get in has spare keys lying around, I am looking to buy one.

LoL players were never going to like it, I was an avid DOTA then HoN player, I still manage 20hours/week on HoN quite easily, this will quite literally be the sole game I play for a good while and paying a pretty small amount to get in potentially months early is very much worth it in my eyes.

Besides, they are LoL players

i'd let you borrow my steam acount for aslong as the beta lasts

as i dont have many games on it anyway but it seems to be against the steam rules

If anyone got a spare key I'd love one! Cheers

EDIT: It's just popped up saying I've been invited haha! Spares are all taken, sorry folks!

haha indeed, if all the LoL crowd really liked the game I think I might cry.

Do you get email saying you have been invited? or does it just pop up on steam?

you get an email but the game is auto added to your library on steam

Both I believe.

I would greatly appreciate any spare key anybody has, been a dota fan for a long time but obviously my luck means I don't get a key, as per usual.
