Yes! a new dota1 map update! It seems DracoL1ch has taken over with the DotA1 map project.

this map contains all 82-83 changes from Dota2 + dozen bug fixes of original doto + very few different things, mentioned in topic below. Pretty much this is how dota should be looking like according to dota2. All changelogs available at main page. I forgot to update this page tho.
thanks

Updates are based on dota2:
-New hero skills (ex. pl and bs).
-New roshan location.
-Rune spawns: Two spawn at the same time now: a haste/invis/doubledamage/regen/image rune at one side, bounty rune on another side.
-New scepter abilities (ex. gs, sven, phoenix, chen).
-New item(s)
-courier item transfer fixed
-Some terrain changes: more tree paths.
-Balancing: mechanics, hero skills, etc.

Check out the map and let us know what you think about it: should we update our dota map to this version?

Please post your replies and findings including bugs/problems on the suggestion thread.

@Frank yes, it looks like courier now combines items accordingly and automatically without you having to drop it.

@buldozer

State your reasons why the 6.83 map is bad or imbalanced or unstable. Just stating "do not" is not good enough criticism or feedback.

@nabo.

new map have its pros certainly as some bugs corrected ... but I do not like what they appear two rune suddenly right is much easier to go around and take botle as the first item. I guess it will all work, and it is certainly a big advantage over other players, is that the bounty rune does not give much but renewed bottle, most hate to have changed Rosano place.and of course I do not like the look of the new maps some passing between the trees, when to hide in the fog, I do not know maybe it just does not like me, but I'm a big opponent of the new maps..

my English is bad, so I use a translator.. :D

such a serbian stylish player, have fun boys.

Ah I see.

You preferring the older layout and not liking certain new game features is understandable. Gotta adjust to new meta though.

As much as your own opinion is reasonable for yourself, my question was whether you have big problems with certain bugs that you may have found, etc etc. The major question when evaluating new maps is whether the map is stable and balanced along with its new features and changes.

best time to adjust is when icefrog get new map 6.83 .

A new map is stable and does not have any major errors, If I knew English better I could explain to you what is wrong on the new map, such as stacking large creeps at sentinel is much easier now, and the best place for ward behind Rosano, in the end you will see for yourself, you're not an idiot, so I have to show you: D

have fun :D and love dota 1!!!

I get what you mean, that is why this topic and the topic on Suggestion forum exists.

The thing about new maps is that they undergo patches for better stability and balance. So unless it is a huge problem, we should be ok in fixing and adjusting.

As for icefrog, he does mention about 6.83 release to his chinese community on twitter or something, but we are not sure. That is why we are discussing whether the map is good to be autohosted and whether hosting both versions would be an alternative idea.

Yeh this version is buggy as hell. Atleast 1-3 drops on loading screen, and last game I played I got permanent ethereal with morph and ethereal blade.
