    Quote from SFJake

    Its funny, because the reason I would BUY Dota 2 is if its NOT free to play, if it doesn't have the shitty, insulting business model that LoL has.

    That really is all I care about. I'm not much of a fan of the DOTA genre at all in the first place, but if you buy it like a normal game I might just go for it.

    LoL has a great business model.

    their main profit is designing 'skins' and constantly adding new champs that 'rich' kids willing to buy. the money goes into improving game design, balancing, constant surveillance of servers that is supported by riot gaming.

    there are ton of 60$ games that focus on grabbing ur cash and giving u peace of shit to work with. not worth the investment.
    -this is the reason more games try to sell 'vanity' items, cash shops, and advertisement to make profit out of existing item and improve it.

    free to play is dominating the world of gaming - yielding better business model overall.

    (LoL, TF2, Runescape(rofl), GPotato, ijji, and bounch more games)

    ofcorse having both initial investment and investment over time is a good model too (such as freken CoD) but there has to be balance.

    imo P2P gaming that has subscription will also go downhill once other offer same product for free.

    to be honest, unless its free to play i dont think there's a chance that it will bloom out and be "viral" title. Comparing screen-shots, HoN and LoL look much better and were in competition since 2009. during this year LoL has made number of improvements attracting over 18m players and earning the title of #1 game of 2011. on top of that once the season 2 begins, and new "map" dominion comes out it will be something like a bonus to the game...

    unless Dota2 is Free to play and has better style/balance/"originality" i dont see it doing well against all popular LoL.

    the only thing stands out is the name "Dota".

    it also seems that many heroes will be direct copy from dota game and we can only observe how will it do later...

    nyway long story short, i am looking forward to try it out and see what it offers me. however i am not yet looking to spend any money on it.

    u repeat what Dcast mentioned last week

    This debate is still going on? what is the point in proposing "solutions" to a non existent problem? Blizzard will not change the underlying method by which their engine works this late in the game. Always online is here to stay. Deal.

    its not much of a debate rather its a poll where u show how u feel about the change. and no nothing will be changed most certainly, and its good to know how to community feels.

    Quote from TitanREW

    HC is based on competitiveness. u and the opponent both know only one of u will walk away alive, that said its fairly simple to use ever method nessasary to achieve ur goal, by all means walking alive from the arena.

    HC will have mass lvl 10-30 duelers that have a main supplying them items so they can have gladiator streaks.

    when u die, u die.

    Mains supplying them items? Nah. I don't see that happening. Items aren't exactly in abundance in hardcore mode. I don't see many people dueling tbh, if death is permanent. It will remain a very very limited audience to be able to pvp in hardcore, and thus, they should remove it entirely, or instate the sparring program also together with real death pvp..

    u forget that the arena is "optional" and so it would have no meaning to remove it. those who want to try out and see if they are worthy of calling themselves hard core players will duel continually, and some who wish to be top ranked(assuming if it works anything like d2) can choose to pve instead.

    welcome fella
    even though d3 wont be competitive pvp, we can still smash axes and conjure fire against others.
    we all look for something to kill time with till d3 comes out and till then all we do is mumble about things we like or don't, and criticizing blizzard's actions towards new generation of gaming.

    stick around, its an awesome community. even Cain agrees. "Stay a while and listen".

    Quote from GoBigRed23

    3)

    What this does is, give confidence to HC players to PvP for death, if they can try it out in PvP sparring mode first...

    I can assure you, that nobody with half a brain is gonna want to PvP to death with their fully maxed out lvl 60 HC char they spent money, time and such in.. nobody really... maybe 0.5 %

    BUT...

    If they were allowed to test their maxed chars out, and feel good about it in a sparring match, they might want to go do REAL PVP after.. for permanent death.'



    The point is, why even HAVE PvP in hardcore mode, if nobody uses it ?

    There isn't one. So instate both a sparring system and a permanent death one
    4)

    Lastly, what sparring also does is, it matches your opponent against you.

    So let's say you wanna duel a barb, and you're a wizzy. You're unsure they you are both evenly matched and the fight will be fair... so sparr with the barb first.. to see if the battle is one-sided or actually exiciting.. so it can go both ways..

    What's exiciting about a PVP match, if u alrdy know who wins?

    So you sparr, and find out you have equal skill, items and settings, and THEN

    YOU DUEL TO THE DEATH !! ULTIMATE SHOWDOWN !! BOOM.

    The problem with that logic is when does a player who's already scared to duel going to actually feel confident enough to go play against someone that he might not be prepared for or are you saying to spar first like your running a dueling scouting program to make sure you aren't against someone better than you. Part of the thrill of hardcore dueling was not knowing if you were going to survive the battle and in my opinion, it should stay that way. Softcore is already set up for those who aren't willing to put in the time and effort into making a truly good dueler.

    In addition to that, if the game is supposed to have a matchmaking system in it, then you should technically be positioned against those of an equal level to yourself. That way you should feel safe to duel if the system is actually designed well.

    IF you got a 50/50 chance to survive, I don't see how that would suppress any excitement present to the current way. You don't know if u survive or not if you got 50 / 50 % chance..

    That's why I think sparring could work. When you go 1on1 sparring with a guy, and you are both winning 50 / 50... and then... you duel for real.. so everybody has the fairest of chances to win..

    Who wants to trust the matchmaking system? ;D It can be dangerous.

    If I wanna throw my character away on PvP, I at least wanna know that the fight was as FAIR as it could have been, or it would have been wasted.. you get me? I think alot of people would agree with me

    HC is based on competitiveness. u and the opponent both know only one of u will walk away alive, that said its fairly simple to use ever method nessasary to achieve ur goal, by all means walking alive from the arena.

    HC will have mass lvl 10-30 duelers that have a main supplying them items so they can have gladiator streaks.

    when u die, u die.
