Will we ever get the loading screens back? They added so much flavor to the game. I mean, they're still there in wc3 dota, but dota2 only shows the dota logo on a black screen

Wow, got invited. I will check it out tomorrow, never played moba-esque games. The funny thing is in that poll i had to do there was no option for never played so i chose minimal possible answers ;]

Congratulations, good luck and have fun. Have patience and persevere. If you're a brand new Dota player it can be daunting so hang in there. Look up the guides and whatnot to learn about the game before you start. There's a lot to learn.

Try not to ragequit and hate Dota in under 3 hours.

yes, if all you worry about is winning, ull never have fun in dota. my friend quit dota (having never played anything like it before, not even rts) after 50 or so games because he wasn't good at it... i tried to explain to him that ive played 1000 games and im only halfway decent at the damn game.

a tip to having fun even when you're team is getting smashed. try and get as little death as possible while participating in all the fights. i once went 8-0 on tide hunter while my team lost horribly. and as always gl hf!

Got into Dota 2 about two weeks ago, I have played two SC2 games since (mid-masters). I am fairly certain I am making a full transition but it's hard for my brain to accept that. It's hard to abandon two years of hard work, learning, and progress.

But when I sit down in the evenings after work, I just want to play Dota.

Remember that multi-page discussion in this thread with tests and charts about how heroes perform 1v1 with no items? Whoever has the data for this has a chance to look smart on reddit http://www.reddit.com/r/DotA2/comments/12su7l/is_there_a_hero_that_can_win_any_1_v_1_fight_at/ .

If they're allowing you to kite arbitrarily long without setting up stalemate conditions, it's pretty stupid. If that's the case, necrolyte or weaver to spoon them to death.
