Keep one 6.85k map for DotA

[Chrono[diox]]

I know that the revert is awaiting implementation, I would like to formally request that we keep at least one bot hosting an AP game with 6.85k. Some people may cry themselves to sleep if they can't play easymode and pick 5 carries and win, but there are still those of us who miss non-em games and don't really get to play them much. I think the draw of the new Draco-lich 6.85k map would also help make sure the games fill up.

I agree. I think there should be a 6.83 apem and arem bot and also add a 6.85 ap. Some of the bots barely get any use at all.. Unless dota causes server storage issues or something I see no reason why there couldn't be 4 bots devoted to dota. If it doesn't fill remove it as usual

I mean I would love to agree with this but the bottom line is that the new map is SO BUG HEAVY. I am an AREM player and I clearly want 6.83c back. nabo approved 6.83d but in all reality 6.83c is the better version and the mods don't have to deal with any courier glitches on techies. If you want to keep 6.85k I suggest contacting the creator and telling him that his version is so buggy it's not even fun to play.

Everyone keeps complaining about all these bugs but doesn't site any replays or specific games and times.

I have yet to see any as of today. Played upwards of 100 games on 6.85k.

The problem with hosting both is that very few people prefer AP, so the 10-man games won't fill except during peak hours. So the only way for AP-lovers to play pub AP games is to make it the only option. Calling it "APEM" was another trick to get people in. I mean, duh, you're really sitting here wondering why they didn't just make it a choice? They tried it last year too by removing APEM games and everyone revolted the same way.

We didn't trick anybody. It was merely a lack of information for the implementation.

We will not split the DotA bots.

If you found bugs in the new map, report them to the map developer or post them in the DotA section.
