dota is not an rts and valve didnt made it, valve reskined it.

dota or any other moba overshadowing starcraft2 has nothing to do with their quality. Full throttle is the greatest game ever made but sold 1/12349023450259390490 or sims.

In addition, RTSs are too difficult to play for many people. It takes so much focus and concentration to get shit done. Meanwhile, I can jump on CoD after being awake for 20 hours and drunk as fuck and still smoke noobs and even if I don't, it's still not frustrating or boring. That said, CoD is a shitty game XD. I feel like it's just a "party game" so to speak; anyone can play it and it takes 0 skill.

If you want to split hairs and not consider DOTA a RTS, then you should know this:

The market for RTS is really small. Most people these days are not interested in a pure RTS a la AOE2/SC1.

So if you don't want to consider DOTA an extension of RTS, then we can safely say RTS is dead.

the market was never big and with a big title alive (SC2) it's far from dead...

Warhounds seem slightly too fast for mech units imo, but I like it since it gives you a good way for dealing with roach harass playing mech since hellions are garbage at dealing with it and tanks are far too slow - so making 5 - 6 warhounds tvz to deal with roach harass is good.

What's wrong with marauders or banshees?

You don't have to go hellion + thor in every TvZ you know...

ok then should we include farmvilles to icon adventure genre so that we can call adventure games "alive"
real time tactics is a genre as old as rts, its not spliting hairs. its being accurate. moba's would not replace the experience of an rts game and vice versa.

Terran = the new A move race.

No thought required, make battle hellions, make warhounds, make vikings, A move, win game.

So this is how Dustin Bowder thought of making mech more viable in TvP? Just turn mech into bio in big metal boxes with legs?

Fuck this shit. I can stand changes like worker auto mine and not being able to click on enemies or mineral patches, but I cannot stand the way the terran game is shifting.

I've been watching ForGG and all he's done every single match is make those two units and just tried to out-upgrade and out-concave his opponent, absolutely zero skill involved compared to making tanks or going bio.



Wait, you can't click on enemy units to see their upgrades? Or click enemy resources to see how much gas they've mined??


I think you can still click on geysers to check, but you cannot click on mineral patches, period. Not even your own. Meh, it's not going to ruin it for me.



How are you supposed to know how many minerals are left in a patch, and how many probes are worth keeping at a mining base? Wow that is terrible.

Roach harass must be dealt with POSITIONNAL tank play. Some hellions/Thors ready to move. that's how mech players do it right now, and it works. You can even use HSM Raven to help defend some tanks or deflect any drop roach on your army. WH just doesn't fit in.

For me, everything will be balanced eventually, and terran already has a lot of micro, so I'm fine with how it works. It's more just the artwork. Needs less walkers, also, the thor is a walker, but it's like big badass, and looks cool, the warhound is actually aesthetically ugly though imo.

I mean think about this, with it's haywire missiles, surely it'd be better off to have the model as something similar to the tank? That way it actually is a mech unit, the haywire missiles would be like a rotating turret thing on the back like you get on some tanks, and it would just look more fitting.

It just looks like a drunken mess.. And espcially with the battle hellions. I mean come on, tanks, warhound, battle hellions? This isn't star wars.

it's an heavily tactical oriented game with small stratedy inside (like sc2 anyways) if you want to take that path which doesn't explain at all what an rts is.

Mech play is supposed to be powerful, positional and with low mobility. Warhound is too fast, too powerful and just a move. It is as non mech as anything can be. It has to be adjusted a lot to make it good.

Least exciting unit of the expansion. Not only that, it was designed to fix a problem that's not even worth fixing. Who wants to watch two armies A-move each other in TvT? I'd rather watch Tank Wars.

Exactly. Plus, I haven't seen anything worthy of being called a stale-mate tank line since Shakuras Plateau at like...maybe MLG Anaheim 2011 (sorry that I can't name the game, it is a little too long ago for me).

These things are the ugliest, most retarded looking units I have ever seen.

If robots could have trisomy21 , they would look like the Warhound

starcraft 2 is MMA

dota 2 is basketball

sadly, one is more impressive, and one is more popular

i watch MMA, dont watch popular

however, on a flip side, most people probably give GSP or Junior Dos Santos or Cain Velasquez more respect than Ron Artest

but basketballs biggest star kobe bryant / Jordan gets more respect (or should i say recognition) than MMA stars
