[QUOTE=kapin_krunch;45265931]A lot of people in this thread say that all Mobas are terrible. I don't think that at all, some of the games are fucking great, it's the communities that are garbage. I stopped playing dota simply because 99% of them games you are paired with people who are complete assbags.
That being said there really, [b]really[/b] doesn't need to be another moba. This announcement really shows that originality in videogames is in a massive decline.[/QUOTE]
I agree that the dota community mostly is shit but personally I have met some amazing people through the game. I never also play the game alone because I want to lower the risky of getting bad teammates. Having a good attitude and not being a negative and rude person in your games helps a lot and can help you find nice people to play with.
In my opinion, only DOTA, LoL and a very select few others are really the fun MOBAs, because they've been through months/years of testing by players and they were crafted without trying to cram in to an already-existing hype pool
[QUOTE=JerryK;45265433]people always talk about moba communities being so bad but that's literally every game, it's more noticeable in team games like mobas because people are required to try and work together
also because people just like to repeat what they heard[/QUOTE]
couldnt be any worse than civ community, for fuck sake i had one guy give me so much shit for one misspelled word. made me want to punch right through my screen lol
EA's Dawngate is actually not that bad, it's got some slightly interesting mechanics going for it.
i don't know why folks complain about MOBAS being made, its what makes money, its capitalism, they gotta follow the money no?
also dota can be fun, it would be more fun if valve idea of matchmaking was not horribly broken, but it is fun generally.

Fuck off, Dota 2 and League of Legends are good.
[QUOTE=JoonazL;45265753]I prefer to call MOBAs Aeon of Strife Styled Fortress Assault Game Going On Two Sides, or ASSFAGGOTS for short.[/QUOTE]
I never understood what that meant and god dammit I feel like a complete idiot now.
Mobas, because lets make an entire genre out of the shittiest starcraft/warcraft maps
I'm surprised people are this upset over a small spinoff they have zero obligation to play.

what the fuck are you talking about
[editline]1st July 2014[/editline]
so let me get this straight; he made a post saying that people are overreacting. so you take his post and construe it to mean he wants people to not express their personal opinion. you then tell him that he should not express his personal opinion.
thats not how the game is played, itsjuly
[QUOTE=Ganerumo;45266425]Fuck off, Dota 2 and League of Legends are good.[/QUOTE]
to the people disagreeing with this, what makes you think they're bad games?
I can't speak for league, I've never played it or seen much content for it, but dota 2 is very well made and all the gameplay mechanics are tight.
I don't care if you don't like the genre but calling the games shit is just ignorant.

people think dota is bad cause "hurr, mobas suck" mostly, i seldom see anyone give a decent reason as to why they think its "bad" , league at least has the shitty "selling heroes" crap one can easily hate, dota doesn't even have that.

they are bad and you should feel bad i tried to play one but its like half of brazil was playing
[QUOTE=SexualShark;45267729]they are bad and you should feel bad i tried to play one but its like half of brazil was playing[/QUOTE]
brazilians stick to SA server, since we get like 9-30ms latency, what you're talking about(i personally get 4-16 on average).

I suck at game ______, let's blame it on foreigners.
[QUOTE=JohnnyOnFlame;45268089]I suck at game ______, let's blame it on foreigners.[/QUOTE]
ever play a F2P game?
you should try it. especially when someone with ungodly high latency fucks everything up and calls you a faggot in another language you dont understand.
yeah this is pretty much a two way street.
[QUOTE=SexualShark;45267729]they are bad and you should feel bad i tried to play one but its like half of brazil was playing[/QUOTE]
i mainly get russians :v:
[QUOTE=SexualShark;45268112]ever play a F2P game?
you should try it.[/QUOTE]
that doesn't count on dota, there is no reason for brazilians to play on NA server(unlike other games where people are forced to do so), i personally get 130-180ms on NA server , most of my friends get like 250-300+ why would anyone play on NA on a game where rapid reactions are highly important? having 20ms or 200ms is the difference between escaping a gank or getting owned.
also SA matchfinding generally finds matches in 1-2min tops(sometimes instant).
i'm not speaking for other nationalities though.
also i really don't why russians play on other servers, do they get bad latency on their server or something.

If only you could invite friends and play with them, therefore avoiding the whole community problem altogether.

What goes through the heads of the people who make these things?
"Okay, so today we're going to compete with two of the most popular games in the world, and everyone who plays those games is already heavily invested in the games and probably don't have the time or money to totally remove themselves from those games and play a new game (which none of their friends play), and maybe they'll buy some stuff from us so they can enjoy the 12 hours they'll get out of our game MAXIMUM so they can get an edge over the other 40 people playing it."
I mean shit it's like competing with fucking chess.
[QUOTE=ColdWave;45264430]MOBA's are literally all terrible.[/QUOTE]
Apart from MNC and SMNC, yes
Well I guess if KoF can get a moba, anything can.
i've been playing a lot of smite recently. it's the only moba to catch my interest and keep me involved for longer than a day or two. LoL lost its appeal after day 1 and DoTA 2 is okay, but smite is actually pretty neat. i recommend checking it out to anyone, go look up some gameplay videos on youtube!
that being said, the recent moba trend is really rather pathetic and i'd like at the very least to see people putting time and effort into their clones to make them into something unique
