Dota 2 for £23.99

Kosmiche · 19 Dec 2012 at 22:17

Does anyone else think valve can go get stuffed?

£23.99 for early access to a FREE TO PLAY game, this is absolutely underhand and incredibly outrageous.

I mean these beta gifts are being dished out all over the place, and valve think they can charge £24 for the beta?

Anyone who pays for this does not love pc gaming and wishes pc gaming to burn.

Jesus, is this a error or something.

Ripoff tbh.

I don't see why they need so much money when they already have microtransactions in the game to allow for visual customization of the champions which a good majority of fools will pay for.

No idea why it hasn't been released yet, it's being used in tournaments so how can they say it's not ready for release to everyone? I've been given over 20 invites in the past 3months!

Aren't they waiting to finish all the heroes before releasing it? Pretty sure its a good idea to finish it before releasing it as a finished product..

How have you been getting so many invites? I've only gotten 1 which I gave away on here.

Spektor · 19 Dec 2012 at 22:26

Seems a bit odd, I got so many invites in the end that I stopped bothering giving them out. Who exactly isn't in that beta?

Been in the beta a long time. Got an invite off a mate, then received 2 shortly afterwards and got another 5 a few week back. Not sure how.

HankScorpio · 19 Dec 2012 at 22:27

I've got 6 invites as well, gave loads away and they keep building up.

Danny091 · 19 Dec 2012 at 22:28

Give over, its been there for ages for people who wanted to buy into the beta and get some extra stuff along the way when they were scarce. I don't really see an issue with anyone paying £20 for a game of this quality, more content/thought/development put into most F2P games.
