First Immortal Gardens making pathing much easier to see by means of round and cubic trees without much leafage. Now Dark Reef actually has performance advantage. Not too much on topic - just a rant - but the whole cosmetic items situation seems to get out of hand as well. My favourite examples are Juggernaut in a completely different colour set-up and Timbersaw looking like Axe. I wish I could disable cosmetics items that got too much out of hand : ( | ||

so no immortal gardens square trees was pretty dumb but as long as it brings your framerate down 50% it's hard to call it op. | ||

I mean you can see heroes way before they appear on screen or on the map : the long shadows give them away, despite the fog of war. The shadow is headed full south, so you want to play radiant. And yeah, why not throw an immortal garden map over that, they're compatible (and look somewhat nice, if not a bit dark). edit : sadly, afaik, one can't get that weather anymore. At least I can't find a way to grab TI5 weather effects that I missed  So not really P2W per se I guess, but still... never understood how that weather was "ok". | ||

When I googled for similar posts I found the fps thread on reddit and added it to this post. I don't truly care, but for fairness points I hope Valve will make another similar map to Immortal Gardens that everyone can have access to. | ||

I think it is the best at defining heights (which I find very confusing with the default map), also it looks nice and I grew tired of IG. | ||

It's about 60% bad days - which has me at around 15 FPS 40% good days - which gives me around 40 FPS And I'm already playing on the very lowest settings possible. I've noticed that as soon as I get to around 25, it suddenly gets playable - everything under feels like a good second delay -.- so basically, if I can just improve me "bad day" FPS by 5-10, it would make a huge difference. I actually won the MK map in that Kiev Major predictions thing... Would that map slightly improve my FPS as well, or should I get darkreef/immortalgardens? | ||

Not sure if you're being serious in your questioning but, if that's the case, I believe he deems the subject trivial and not worthy of a discussion : those are only terrains. On the other hand, this is a dota2 dedicated website, and no one is forcing him to read or comment the various topics, so... the post did sound a bit odd indeed, if not ridiculous, to me.

Sounds more like a personal rant than anything, I don't see anyone mentioning the "pro" side in the topic. According to the client, there were 12M unique players last month. I do not believe those are all pros, yet I do believe they can still find interest in the various terrains. | ||

He followed me here from another thread. I kinda quoted him from there because of the reason you brought up. | ||

Sometimes I don't even "know" where I am on the map, I'm having hard time locate some neutrals camps. I mean I knew it was busy from looking at the preview in videos and in game, but yeah, it is busy, and it's confusing too. Coming from the MK terrain, which has quite frantic colours, this one seems very washed out, as well. I'll give it some days, but right now I doubt I'll keep it. | ||

The problem for me is, that it doesn't change a thing in terms of FPS. I still have horrible 15 FPS days, where dota is just unplayable.... other days I'm at 50-70 which is fine. Seems to me like I don't have a choice but to spend my bonus on a new laptop | ||
