Man valve GG'd DBR before it even got off the ground.


To be honest, I'm sad. I think people took the issue way too seriously and being a statwhore I was looking forward to looking at all the ratings and such.

Oh well, AR MM = yummy. Although no more 853g!!

I was looking forward to the ratings.

I wasn't looking forward to the effects of the ratings (supertranstar raging at me before I pick my hero :[ ).

In dota 1 ar = 853 for everyone, not sure if it's still that way.
I liked Dota before it was Mainstream.

Well, first privacy is always good and I guess the biggest issue that Valve had was that Dotabuff were apparently trying to sell their Rating, so that you can only see others rating if you pay money.

See, you can still look at the ratings friday, but they will become useless as dotabuff misses more and more "blocked" games.

Either way, Troll looks like so much fun :D

Dotabuff should've just kept them private by default regardless of what people voted. They brought this upon themselves. Assuming that people are just gonna call people out on being afraid of showing their DBR is a retarded copout excuse and assumes most people even know about DBR and dotabuff to begin with. Now the ratings will most likely be meaningless after the first week.

my favorite part about patch day is implementing the heroes, xD so much nostalgia. Troll was my first ever rampage.

I'm sure announcing a premium subscription didn't look very good in Valve's eyes either. Trying to add something Valve obviously didn't want to have in the game and make money off it... Yeeaah, not surprised it got shut down before it started.

Hmm why did I think AR didn't give you the bonus. Perhaps because I haven't played dota1 in like 4 years. !_!

Thanks for correcting me.

Actually, I'm kinda surprised that dotabuff hasn't posted a big announcement about what this means to them (and why you should set yourself to public). Maybe when it goes live? Or maybe they just don't know how it will affect them yet? Dunno.

Yeah, that was some shady shit and part of me is glad they didn't profit off this even though it means not having ratings.
