And they are, you can play them on the custom right now. But it seems that they think they can weasel more money out of you by charging for "high end" custom maps (Which I honestly see being a flop because of the large amount of free quality customs out there). | ||

There shouldn't be any full time staff devoted to it. DotA 2 is groomed for ESPORTS, which Blizzard won't do and Bnet2 isn't capable of supporting, and LoL is huge and free. It's an oversaturated scene with far more experienced and advanced developers and systems. They should just abandon it. | ||

I think they put it on the arcade to promote it more than other things. Also, isn't the Arcade or Marketplace is for Map makers to sell their maps? | ||

This seems kinda silly. Its like "here are the things the community has been asking for" and the response is "we don't have anything definitive to say other than no LAN. We were to busy coming up with the Viper, so we don't have time for what we know you guys want." | ||

They said no, they've said no over and over again. If they were going to implement LAN they'd announce it publicly not hide it under the table. They know full damn well how much the community wants it but they are staunchly against it for good reason. I'm glad to see they are at least planning to work on the other features mentioned. Hopefully we'll get them before this time next year. | ||
