Dota 6.78c?

Postby GardenofHell » Sat Nov 30, 2013 11:29 am

Why are games on 6.78c not 6.79?! Only on ENT

Because 6.79 is a fail version, and lots and lots of people wanted it reverted.

Yes, 6.79 was freakishly bad. Very glad it got reverted! :D

Are you nuts? Its the official tournament version. Its the official version in DotA2 too. So what dafuq? Its a part of DotA that the game changes constantly and somtimes even in a crazy way. IT IS GOOD! Seriously, would you have been around long enough would you have stayed on version 3.2 just to prevent the introduction of new imba heroes?

Change it, all the pros can deal with 6.79b I believe our bunch of newbies aka "lots of people" can deal with it too.

Its not a matter of preference really @pwnd.lazy its more about the glitches and bugs ice frog will have to iron out for dota 1. Like @beerisforbears stated. If king leoric would use ghost scepter everyone would lag out one by one. No skill can counter dropping everyone in the game.

ok wasnt fuklly aware of this bug, but also bugs are part of the game right? I dont like to spoil it, but there is a very, very old bug which is still not fixed. Also it took ages to fix the haste bug with fenix where he could "charge" with sunray and firebirds. if bugabuse is punished really depends on the community u play in.

but I would like to take this opportunity (slightly off topic), again, to criticize ENTs "announcement" system. there was an announcement that getdota.com was down and you can dl the map from ent. very very important news indeed. but the minor note that ent switched back to the old version due to heavy bugs is somewhere hidden here...

Another one of the reasons was that no one liked the newer version.

- The changes to EXP and gold make you level up so ridiculously slowly, it's not even fun. Slower than AP dota in this version. Playing DotA was like watching paint dry. No thanks. Also, there was a 33% increase in gold income. Threw off all item timings.
- The "balance" changes introduced ruined the game for most pubs.
- Game randomly lags and delays for me in teamfights
- The patch is, in general, garbage.

In conclusion, if the unplayable lag doesn't convince you 6.78c is better, the boringness and ruined balance of the newer version should.

Though, if you really want to play 6.79 on ENT, maybe we could have a bot or two host the newer version and a couple host the older version? Make everyone happy?

I really liked the new version. Some great nerfs and buffs to heroes. Gold and XP thing, Im okay with that. Only annoying thing it was way too buggy and laggy. If that's fixed, we should play it imo.

EoC, learn to farm better. Low skill player doesn't excuse the 'version' of dota. It been in place for a reason, get better.

pwnd.lazy, just PM icefrog about bug. So he can fix it. If no one say shit about it how come he should know everything? And bug/glitch shouldn't be part of the game and be fixed. LoD is there for OP shit game.

EnT do whatever they want also, if you're not happy, move on dota2 or just play on a other server than ENT. Peace ~

1.the changes to exp is only for jungle creeps, basically a nerf to overpowered heros that abuse the jungle. if you stay in lane you will get just as much xp. in fact it's easier to get xp on the offlane now due to creeps not being so near the safelane tower + range heros now get the same xp as melee heros if the creeps get denied.
2. cause you can't stomp with barathrum every second game anymore?
3. never expierienced any lag
4. you just talk bullshit

6.79c is out hopefully they put it ... 6.78 is rly a dumb version. If you know what you're talking about, Huskar is like the most op hero in it.

1) EXP gain was changed for lane too, even if the changelog doesn't say it. Or at least, it was changed for EM play certainly, I'm not entirely sure about AP play. For example, lvl 6 at 10 minutes was a common occurrence in the games I played.
2)

Oops, wasn't that presumptuous of you? Please do even a little bit of research before you flame for no reason.

Three complaints in the slight amount of time we hosted the newest version.

4) Ok?

Regardless, the bugs exist, and people ARE having problems with them.
