We'll know soon enough. They are going to show it off at gamescom later this month and I will be touring valve later this month as well and will hopefully get a chance to try it out.
[quote]Q: Don’t you think you should make a lot of changes to the gameplay? (by Robert)
A: Significant changes would not necessarily make it a better game. There are countless features we are building around the game that will make the experience a much better one. The gameplay itself, though, has always evolved step by step, and it will continue with that methodology. We consider this a long term project, in the same way DotA has always been. We want to provide a quality experience and not just change for the sake of change. You’ll naturally see additions and improvements to the game as time passes, but it would be a natural progression aimed at improving the game for the players and not for other arbitrary reasons. Valve and I strongly believe that the player focused development process the game has gone through is what will allow us to continue making the best decisions with regards to where we spend our development time.[/quote]

If you ask me, that means the game will be inspired by the original but it will have improvements were they are needed. I believe that means things that limit the game or make it more...(stressful, annoying, dated(?) don't know what word to put there) will most likely be looked at.
I think that they are going to use core mechanics from DoTA but it'll feel new, fresh, updated, and original. You also have to consider the fact that DoTA has a very high skill gap and it actually pushes a lot of people away (see HoN) I doubt Valve would make a game that has a high entry point.

I talked to Robin Walker through some emails and sent one of my mirrors as a gift and they agreed to let me tour while I'm in Seattle for PAX.

Don't you worry, the shop is updating to make everything cheaper. I can feel it.
[QUOTE=Chekko;31483512]Maybe pre-ordered it from another store and activated it through Steam.[/QUOTE]
No, he works for Valve.
Got him randomly in Alien Swarm one day and started talking about Valve and shit.
He had 2k games before...they all disappeared.

I could give a fuck about what you think
I rated you dumb because your post truly is dumb, not because I'm "jealous" of the "game" you're going to get an "invite" to.

[QUOTE=bionic0n3;31482923]It might just be your build or you're not using kitty face enough. Nidalee isn't overly strong but she does have a nice amount of sustain damage and her heal keeps her in lane longer then most. Take advantage of that. Too many people push for early grouping. Try to stay in lane long enough to gain a nice gold and level advantage over the roamers.[/QUOTE]
All righty then, thanks for the tip.

why[/QUOTE]i find him fun to play and he's recieving buffs next patch
[QUOTE=Midkey;31481193]Played a game as Soraka, she's quite fun. Although I'd like to play less support characters, I'd rather feel like I'm being useful.
Also, our Amumu was always the first nuke target in team fights, even though we had a Gangplank and Vayne.[/QUOTE]You do realize that supports make your team win a lot more, right?

"We here at riotgames love our old champions and want to make them balanced , here are the changes that will make pantheon not useless:
Increased base gamage on Q with 5 damage
His W now stuns 0.001 seconds longer
His E now does 51% damage to minions instead of 50%
Increased the range of his ultimate by 10
We hope that these changes make pantheon fun and good :downs:"

wait what, how is a support not useful
[QUOTE=Beezleboss;31481334]Ranked is easier than normals for me V:v:V[/QUOTE]
In normals I play against higher rated people and I win a lot more. V:v:V
In ranked I play with 1200-1340 ranked players and win rate is around 60/40.
[editline]2nd August 2011[/editline]
[QUOTE=Beezleboss;31481391]ye; I was at 1200 earlier and now that I'm playing I'm almost at 1400.
no losses yet[/QUOTE]Hope the same thing that happened to me doesn't happen to you.
Solo queue all the way to 1465, get hit by 21 loss streak in ranked. Felt bad.
Ranked is heaps better than normal. Less full on retards, but more incompetent people.
I still really want to do a full on LoL music video with Wukong, but he is so UP right now.
It's hard to get footage because he's so meh.

Not for me.
i usually play with 1600 ELO players in normal with few exceptions.
Just a couple more points and I can get Anivia for real.
[QUOTE=Daniellynet;31484289]He got invited to the beta.[/QUOTE]
well, he works/worked for Valve so it makes sense.
