A classic.
Maybe this is why the Valve webpage had that faded out image of Duke Nukem, because he's working for them.
That was fake.
Valve should realize these online only games with 4 maps suck
Work on better things, L4D series, alien swarm, and this aren't worth anyone's time
Ssshhh!
No cares about your retarded opinion.
[QUOTE=Wii60;23888458]the dota gamemode is decent tiny bit fun but i wouldn't play it alot. but the fanbase ruins the gamemode. If you arn't experienced everyone flames you until either leave or get kicked out
if your better than people in the game you get flamed for being too good then getting kicked out
I don't want this elitist shit to appear in valve games.[/QUOTE]
If you think Valve isn't going to casualize and make it as fun and streamlined as possible so anyone can do good, you'd be kidding yourself. The elitists are going to be like the TF2 comp players, small and outnumbered by actual players of the game.
Already play LoL.
/wontcare.
I'm actually happy that they are busy with something else than a fps, and I'm also wondering, if this is actually being made, if they use Source for this game.
I've never played it, so if they release it for free I'd try it.
Someone tell me what DotA is?
It'll be made by Valve, it shall turn out at least decent.
[QUOTE=Lt Kyle;23899953]Someone tell me what DotA is?[/QUOTE]
Defense of the ancients, the most popular warcraft 3 mod that spawned a few games based off it (League of legends, heroes of newerth, demigod e.t.c) it's a bunch of heroes trying to destroy the enemies base while allies spawn to walk down a lane as you whittle down their defenses and break their turrets until you destroy their base and win the game
DotA could mean something else.
Day of the...
Dawn of the...
Death of the...
Doom of the...
Duke of the...

The facts;
-The DotA developer Icefrog was hired by valve
-He is working on a secret project, said it will be revealed somewhat soon (Gamescon, anyone?)
Predictions;
-The project is either a new DotA backed by Valve, DotA rereleased without requiring the Warcraft 3 engine so Valve can put it on Steam, or an entirely new project.
-Valve wants to expand out of the action FPS genre. Hence hiring Icefrog and (rumored) trying to poach Notch.
I don't care much for DotA, but a Valve developed action RTS sounds awesome beyond belief. Valve wants to drink Blizzard's milkshake.
But WHAT IF DotA stands for something completely different this one time? I mean, it IS an acronym, afterall...
[QUOTE=Ordinorino;23888433]well, thats why there is a big portion of gamers that dislike DotA[/QUOTE]
Uh, no. There's a larger portion that enjoy DotA. Why the fuck did you think so many people hosted it? Derp.
At least it shouldn't be some silly fantasy game. This is valve we are talking about.
[QUOTE=Tacosheller;23887896]Isn't DotA that shitty RTS from korea or something

Maybe he's the new voice for Wheatley?

If i can ever make contact with jon st. John i will imiditly ask him if he would consider doing the duke voice for wheatly.
From what I understand DotA looks like an RTS game but without any RTS gameplay.

All you do is move around a Hero unit and destroy towers.
That's about it for gameplay.
There really isn't any other game that is like DotA, besides Demigod.
It's a competitive and strategic pseudo-tower defense game.

You get pissed cause your brother plays a game you don't like? You're so cool.
Well the base gameplay of dota has some things with it that look like tf2...
[code]
Dota -- TF2
Heroes -- Classes
Attack \ Defense -- capture the flag
Items -- Unlockables
[/code]
Ehh... Heroes are really only there as support while Creeps do most of the work.
You earn money and experience in the game and you're stripped of it after the game.
Attacking and Defending isn't like CTF.

No. League of Legends isn't that bad. I get pissed because he ONLY plays that, and thinks everything else is stupid and pointless.
Hmm, I understand that. I felt the same when my friends would only play WoW. Sorry for coming off aggressive.
