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.

Its called production money. Some of the games I was excited about were not going to get made unless Xbox dumped some money in their direction(Tomb Raider). These days, when you see exclusive, there is a good change the game never would have been green lit without that cash infusion.

But if fucking sucks. My new system budget isn't even viable until like late 2015. At least there will be a back log of cheap games.

Well wait a while, because some of those are "timed exclusives" which is code for "we paid money to have this on our system one money earlier".

Of course, Xbox is going to say "Exclusive" and skip the time party because, like, PR and shit.

Microsoft wasting time moneyhatting Tomb Raiders.

They did it so that Uncharted wont slaughter their sales in 2015.Its a probably a timed exclusive similar to Titanfall.

Tomb Raider will come to PC, i can guarantee that. It's most likely just a console exclusive for Xbox. You might have to wait bit longer for PC as well.

I get more comebacks in games from muting my entire team then any other method.

It's really quite effective if you are getting stomped.

I think the key is making the call when to ignore your team if they are idiots and making it early enough so you can come back. We have all had that totally awesome game where our support is on point and we manage to win our lane. It’s making the hard call when to go “ok, these people are all idiots and just going to get me killed”. Or picking out that one guy/gal that knows what is going on working with them, rather than trying to save the idiots or win your losing lane with your lackluster support.

But chat is over rated. I have found that drawing on the map is more effective at communicating a plan than chat.

Under underestimate the power of the Puck to keep shit light.

That is why I like LC. The heal ability keeps everyone fresh and its hard for them to get made at you when you purging off debuffs and bringing them back from the brink.

People tell me to go "jungle" or "forest" LC all the time. I politely tell them it is terrible and it will lose us the game. The problem is in terrible, low MMR pubs where people farm like shit, there is a chance LC can keep up with their terrible farm rates even if she is in the jungle.

But at the end of the day, shitty roaming jungle farm is better than fighting with Riki for farm in lane, IMO. I would rather get farm from random lanes and the jungle than fight with an idiot for farm all game.

Happens to me all the time when I try to play Phoenix offlane. The worst being when people pick a jungler and 2 safe lane carries then expect me to solo offlane AND support AND be the source of the team's ability to not lose teamfights in the mid-game.
