Watching the DotA2 stream makes me realize how much shit the HoN designers took for nothing.

Valve has maybe 3 times S2's budget, I don't know the numbers, with the top people in the industry, and HoN's interface is AMAZING compared to DotA2.

hon's interface has improved quite a bit sense beta but even in beta they had a dedicated spectator ui that is more appealing this this.

As a dota fan that stopped watching this is not a pleasant reintroduction, i'm used to seeing BIG PLAYS at least from watching HoN, not 100 min 700 ck ricer fest.

Honestly not impressed so far, this could easily have been a dev. version of HoN for all we know. I'm hoping the graphics / art direction is just temporary for the beta, obviously a clean look is nice for spectating and ease of following the game, but this just seems way too bland and uninspired.

Sure spectator features are nifty but you have to get the core of the game right for that to matter.

Pre-emptive "yes I'm complaining about the graphics". Obviously it's way too early to make a judgement on the gameplay.


R1CH laying the smackdown. (http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=254752&currentpage=78#1548) The HoN UI and new spectator UI is so much better than Dota2 atm. However, I expect Dota2 will be constantly improved as it's patched. I must say that I expected more from the current Dota2 build.

I think that the first game was the worst possible publicity for Dota2. There were huge breaks due to the lag (obviously not game-side but event-side) and it was slow because of the lineups.

Oh lord, I was hoping they would get a caster and then Tobi came on mic and I immediatly muted it, I know it's been said before but all he is is very loud and he calls exactly what's happening on the screen with zero insight =./

the stream is bad, i believe most of the long pauses were because the commentators would constantly cut in and out

chinas probably going to finally assimilate anti mage play in dota 1 now

Switched to the non-commentary stream, Tobi's sound quality is just too bad

Bleh. The game doesn't look all that good. How is it spectator friendly if you can only see such small part of the map? Can't they un-zoom the camera a bit? T_T

un zooming messes up the view a lot, the problem is the spectator interface = the player interface which already isnt very good, so yeah
