Title: Poll, DotA or DotA 2.
Post by: IllusionisT on September 20, 2011, 21:31
There has been many polls around, and i can't ignore what i see there, people that prefer DotA over DotA 2.
Also some HATE RAGE comments about DotA 2 lead me to make this pool.
Wanted to know what playdota.eu users think about this.

so the question is simple, after DotA 2 is out, what will you play?
DotA or DotA 2.

You're right, i never did, but from what i saw on the tournament i think i'll play that instead DotA.
Besides is downsides "ugly heroes" "cartoonlike map" "horrible creeps", its still DotA 2, but i never expect
to stop playing DotA.

Have you seen its graphic?
I believe you can play it on IBM Personal Computer designed to run chess only, back in the eighties.
And at some interview with valve, some guy said that it will be regulary updated, new heroes, balances etc.

lol CS xD

Dota 1 > all.

Word ;D

From what I've seen, DotA 2 is not so impressive,it's too flashy IMHO, half of the fights I wouldn't have any idea what's going on :D I believe it will be most attractive to those who mostly like the graphic look of the game over everything else :D

Dont see a reason why someone would choose dota over dota 2, unless of course his computer couldnt handle it. I mean, completely the same game,  with tons of features that arent available in dota, or are available partially and in low quality only via the means of bots such as this one...
As for the graphics, everyone complaining about the hero models and such, there are much more great looking heroes than the bad looking ones, and as valve said, they are going to adapt the models according to the players feedback...
And as for the visibility, I dont know what youre talking about, but the game i saw was very much clear and comprehensive, unlike hon for example, where you dont who is who where and why.

When we consider DotA 2 is 'pay to play' (assuming), have terrible visuals and not better gameplay than DotA, then ofc;

DotA > DotA 2

And wtf is CS 1.6 doing there when CS Source exist!

I hope they improve the visuals (heroes etc.) and gameplay so we play both!

Less of you free loading, mhing, noobs. Choice is obvious, Dota 2. Dropping dota as soon as Dota 2 comes out without hesitation. Same game play, better graphics, more features, you whiners are lame.

TBH, there's no hero model i don't like.. many ppl are complaining about this and that, but that's just because they are so retarded they cant see, that a month after they'll play the game, they wouldn't trade the new hero models for the old..

you said it great.... I will play Dota2 for sure bot and still stay at dota ;) if you got new PC why not have both and then decide and not condemn game that is not yet out, everybody is complaining its easy but praise is hard as I see...

and your CS source now will be shit too when CS:GO (Global Offensive) will come out everything is improving and ppl are too old-fashioned for no reason, Valve is improving it now while we write here this crap ;)

btw I wanna "BOTH" in polls :DDDDDD

Good point, i have an impression that people say "fuck dota2, original rules" just to seem hardcore or cool or whatnot.. There are lots of sequels that surpassed their originals, and valve is one company that i have faith in. Look at half-life for example..

Maybe I'll play DotA, maybe DotA 2 and maybe both.
DotA2 will have many bonuses DotA doesn't have (stats etc). I can get over graphic and few models I don't like.
Depending on how many people will play DotA and DotA2 and on payments.

CS:Source is great (good for wow players lolz), but 1.6 it's more harder(but both have VAC, thing that w3 doesn't).
Dota 2>dota what ever you may think but ofc dota is free, "Original" models(blizzard's models) etc

Well, you can say that just like saying "OMG why people still play CoD 2, Modern Warfare 3 is almost out..."
Just like I say: You want to play DotA 2 'cause only graphic look of the game matters to you :P

Everyone has his own reason and choice what game will he play... There's no chance I will play it if it will be pay to play... I've already paid Warcraft 3 *cough* xD The oppinion that if they put price on it there will be less noobs, game ruiners (like some guys think) is totally wrong. On the other hand, if they make it free, they'll still (probably) give some advantage to those who are willing to pay... We'll see how they'll handle leavers and mh-ers (if there will be any) :D
As for the graphics compared to the original, I'm not so impressed, and some look of the heroes also dissapointed me... Just look how Anti-mage's attack animation looks like compared to one in original :D

But hey, they're still developing it, my oppinion (and vote) is based on what I've seen until now, from that Tournament... And at this moment, DotA > DotA 2 IMO. I can't predict what will they change and how will it look like in the future. As long as we're all still playing DotA over HoN/LoL, doesn't matter what version it is ;D

Its not only the graphics that is improved in DotA 2, but also the fogging system witch is powerful/useful in pro games. That is the part i like most about DotA 2 and of course wind runner :D

check some sites like Darer here are everyday updates about dota2 leaks and info from beta testers so you can see how much they already changed and improved and implemented ;) and agree if dota1/2 will overpower LOL/HON we will be glad :D

As for CoD, there are different reasons why people choose to play what sequel they want, its different thematics, different mechanics, and a great difference in system requirements.
As for Dota, im saying that 2 will be better because you will have:
1. Improved visuals, and dont say that they suck, because objectively, the graphics became better while retaining the original Dota simplicity and visibility. A few hero models suck, so what, that is easily changed, + some hero models suck in original Dota and noone is complaining..
2. An engine fully adapted to Dota, without the limitations of the W3 engine (still retaining all the characteristics of the original)
3. All the stuff that current Dota requires bots to do the job, so stats, ping, and a matchmaking system, which will probably separate noobs from pros.
4. And finally, most important of all, the fact that it will be pay to play (hopefully and i mean just a game purchase, not a monthly fee) will bring Dota to higher levels, since when you give say 30$ for a game, you will think twice before using hacks, going afk, gameruining etc. I really dont mind paying a reasonable sum if i know that it will reduce the number of ruined games to a minimum.

Hope you get my point now.

plz??? how can be dota2 like HON if its 100% remake of dota plus some addons that in dota are 3rd part.... HON is completely different and why you all are complaining maybe you are 7 years old and you cant rid of our favorite toy :D everything is evolving games too and some day war3 and dota will fall many old games that were played for many years felt its evolution and that some design are not of your taste well not all stuff in the world fits to every person we are no robots try find the good and nice things on it and not just complaining w/o any reason - at least Valve is one of the few companies that listen to ppl and make it to their wish, even this is the most perfect thing that you can have, be part of game creation...

Just imagine No MH.
                    U can reconnect even if ur pc resets and the rest won't stop playing while ur getting back.
                    Improwed graphic.
Don't be one of those who hate changes the shit evolves and ul get used to dota2 after a few games and I'm sure u'd prefer it to dota.
I think about it not as a replacement but rather a upgrade just add to everything we had in dota +5.
