[QUOTE=Dirtbox;21219366]Play League of Legends instead. It's free, same game-play, the graphics are better and it's from the real creators of DotA.[/QUOTE] Why the hell are you going to come in here and say this? We don't like HoNfags in our LoL thread, so why are you going to come in here with your LoLfaggotry? Seriously, just shut up.
[QUOTE=Godrek;21220952]LoL vs HoN is stupid they both have their strengths and weakness I like both personally.[/QUOTE] no one likes you, this is unrelated to LoL vs HoN
[QUOTE=Termy58;21235104]no one likes you, this is unrelated to LoL vs HoN[/QUOTE] I happen to find Godrek to be a fine fellow. You need to calm down Termy.
[QUOTE=Dirtbox;21219962] And how come LoL is much simpler?[/QUOTE] HoN is much moar like DOTA in its complexity. For example, in HoN, you never find competent players auto attacking, the game has the h key built around player control, encouraging last hits and denys, while in LoL, there are no denys, and pretty much everyone auto attacks. In LoL, there are no stat attribute gains. In HoN, you can choose stats over skills in some cases where a carry has scaling skills more useful in the later game. A good example is swiftblade/juggernaut (moar soo swiftblade with his counterattack). Swift blade has 2 scaling skills and 2 non scaling skills (one being his ultimate). The most effective build with him is to get only blade fenzy and stats the first 5 levels. His other two skills, one a critical strike, the other, counterattack scale so that they are much better late game. In LoL, the farming metagame is built around buffing players rather than serving an actual role. Tons of Champions I see has skills that is a nuke and gives extra gold per kill. Gold is also used to buy items that, in the most interesting case, gives an orb effect. I don't think ive seen any items with active effects in LoL. In HoN, Items are bought mostly for their function rather than for their stats. (this is moar true in HoN than in DotA because orbs stack). Items such as sheepstick gives and extra disable to the team, allowing them to take the enemy carry out of play for just long enough to win big teamfights. In LoL, items are seperated into generic groups such as attack defense and lifesteal. Perhaps the most solid reason why HoN is moar complex than LoL is the playerbase. When I first played LoL, the game was different but I simply picked the champion that seemed like a basic agi hardcarry (one with an escape mech, scaling skills or evasion). In my first game, I easily got tons of kills with only a few deaths. Newcomers to HoN from LoL do not find HoN as easy. They are berated for their poor playing habits picked up from a game that does not encourage good laning or farming, or even ganking (I have yet to hear a single missing in my few games of LoL). Without knowing how to farm, how to lane, or even what items to buy, LoL players often have to learn the game from the basics.
Cool some guy that likes LoL has derailed the thread good job I like HoN better, he likes LoL better but please do not bring LoL into this thread and also saying "[quote]Play League of Legends instead[/quote]" is just not right, because some of us might like our own thread you do not see us invading the LoL thread

Good job at fucking up HoN, S2 Games :v: Tries to updates: Crashes: Can't play
[QUOTE=war_man333;21267884]Good job at fucking up HoN, S2 Games :v: Tries to updates: Crashes: Can't play[/QUOTE] Reinstall the game.
[QUOTE=war_man333;21267884]Good job at fucking up HoN, S2 Games :v: Tries to updates: Crashes: Can't play[/QUOTE] Goto your Heroes of Newerth main folder. (Usually at C:\Program Files\Heroes of Newerth) Then there should be a text file called log.txt, rename the file to tos.txt. After that in the folder there should be an EXE named honupdater or something similar, run that and update game like normal. Crash should be fixed.
[QUOTE=Xera;21267909]Reinstall the game.[/QUOTE] Unless they put up a new install file, that wouldn't work. I tried like 5 hours ago.
[QUOTE=war_man333;21268079]Unless they put up a new install file, that wouldn't work. I tried like 5 hours ago.[/QUOTE] Just use the method I posted above.
I did, it worked, thanks.
Anyone knows when approximately will the next hero be released? I'll start to play again when she's in the game so I have something new to try out.
[QUOTE=Nelth;21268501]Anyone knows when approximately will the next hero be released? I'll start to play again when she's in the game so I have something new to try out.[/QUOTE] You do know they put in the chipper, right?
[QUOTE=Gorm;21268701]You do know they put in the chipper, right?[/QUOTE] Well fuck. Haven't updated it in like 3 months but I'll try it out after homework's done.
Looks impressive, Im still going to stick with DOTA thogh
[QUOTE=bijan;21268822]Looks impressive, Im still going to stick with DOTA thogh[/QUOTE] I dont like the Battle.net server joinging, the host has no powers etc. HoN has fixed everything that i hated on DotA.
Don't you mean that HoN has everything that DotA was missing? Also servers seem to be going apeshit, can't join anything.
[QUOTE=Gorm;21241650]thats one person and [B]he is a moron[/B] still please do not derail the thread with LoL I would like to talk about HoN and not LoL[/QUOTE] Yeah, and fuck you. Also, the chipper is awesome if you know how to use the rockets.. If someone escapes with 200 hp, kapow rockets everywhere, and they qq. Also, i can now confirm that the best combo right now is: Devo and Jera. Guide how to own: Devo pick: 2-1-2-1-2-4 etc. Jera pick: 1-2-1-2-1-4 etc. Now. Select your victim devo, grab the target, in the meantime (or before) jera has magic immunity and you then turn on the gas. 20% slow + 25 - 100 damage per second to them, nothing to yourself. And they can't stop you. OWN at low lvl and you're OP end game.
Ahahaha, like 40 people connected to a server, hit 100% then disconnected, all I could see in the chat was X has joined a billion times. :v:
Finally things going up for me. I've been doing so bad the past couple of days ( or atleast my group has) I went from 1660 to 1580. But now im on 1680 psr, and 640 games played :D

[QUOTE=rilez;21270455][B]cant find this log.txt[/B] (1)in the main folder and my [B]honupdate just launches the game (2)[/B][/QUOTE] 1: That's weird, did you update the game before? 2. It should do that.
It seems like the beta is over now.
[QUOTE=PowerBall v1;21270694]It seems like the beta is over now.[/QUOTE] Why? Also, when you play right now and buy something, you automaticly drop the items.
fucking hell what the shit is going on.
never mind got it working again.
[QUOTE=Nuggi man;21270239]Yeah, and fuck you. [/QUOTE] then do not go into the LoL thread with Hon stuff [b]BUDDY[/b]
