Probably already thought of

Postby BouncingHitman » Mon Jun 29, 2015 9:01 am

An option/button/field from the games list that allows us to directly download the map or host from entlink (or maybe add it to our personal list of maps). I have a huge struggle when it comes to finding the legitimate map version that's being hosted from the 9999 different maps named Tom and Jerry 2014, or such..

Eh, this would be really helpful, but I personally just download all my maps from makemehost.com using control + f.

I think this has been proposed before.

Personally I'd like it since cloud gnome doesn't always work.

Bouncing isn't really complaining about dota downloading.

He's complaining about how there are a lot of maps with same name but are slightly different so you need the correct one to be able to watch the replay.

@Cambrioleur I'm yet to have a single situation where cloud gnome actually works. Whenever I try to download the map it always says 404 error etc. I'd like a map download link on the replays to be honest. Along the same lines of the original request and would make life a lot easier.

Support. Another reason why this would be useful is that it takes a long time for some people to download certain maps in the lobby, especially when many are downloading at the same time
Having an unstable internet connection or a high risk of lagging out? Are you tired of losing a won game because you disconnected?
