IRC chatter should remain in IRC - http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=tl.dota2 Posts that relate to topics with their own thread, such as in News, Tournaments or Strategy should go in those threads. | ||

Compared to the incredibly high bar that Valve has set with everything else they've done with DotA2, it's pretty clear that the holiday events haven't met the mark. | ||

I played CS on servers without mods for almost a decade. Some people need to learn to actually fucking enjoy games without needing constant NEW SHINY SHIT or gimmicky modes or meaningless progression systems. Is it nice with a change once in a while? Sure, but no one has a legitimate reason to be 'angry'. i dont care about shiny new things, im terrible at all the stuff in the game already. i played the same type cs servers you did, or something similar i just want valve to talk to us | ||

I just do not like being left in the dark when it is done on purpose. And if they did communicate it people would still whine. People just cling onto any reasonable excuse to be mad about their free game not getting an update. Way to invalidate anyone that seems to be upset. How about instead of just glossing over the entire issue, you take the time to realize there is more to it then simply, no update I rage! This sort of all encompassing logic is getting to the level of Blizzard forums which is very pitiful. | ||

This is an effect that has resounded through the games industry, they see people want them to communicate, so they do But when they do, things they say are often used against them, people call them liars, people shit on them And these aren't people who were hired to deal with this, they're just developers Its no wonder why most game devs don't really communicate with the community. The community doesn't know shit, thinks they do, and are ASSHOLES about it | ||

I mean games like Diablo 3 and Sim City have terrible metacritic user scores but for good reason. But the reason Dota 2 is getting spammed now is completely stupid in comparison. Games like Diablo 3 and Sim City had terrible metacritic scores because of petty and stupid reasons as well. Sure, they had issues, but the user scores did not reflect the quality of the game, they were intentionally tanked far beyond what the games deserved. Its not that diferent from what happened to Dota and why user scores are often pointless. No matter what server issues D3 had on its first week, its not a game worth only a score of 3.8. People give games 0 for the most absurd reasons on that site. | ||

Although Metacritic is fucking stupid. And It'd be nice if they took it off Steam and stop giving it credence. | ||
