This looks like what Bannerlord should've been.

Am I bad person for ignoring Teck ingame for his Trayvon / Zimmerman crap? Its the only reason I pretend to be dead in channel when hes on? I otherwise will group with anyone from the channel. Even if it's coaching or helping teach.

Removing CC and Lifesteal/heart was the retarded part. If you could do him in a legit manner a la a raid encounter I think you'd see less people trying to exploit and more finding the ultimate raid party. Thats how we started then they nerfed legitimacy out which didn't leave much else beside...

HoN monkey king would be funny, but I'd rather have Rhapsody. I don't remember monkey king in Dota.

No one from the Dota community has issues with HotS being an oversimplified casual game of hero laser tag. If anything it might attract our Brasilleros away.

This event has been exploited all day. As soon as they fix the top exploit another one emerges. Good luck finding out who the real 1% are! Visage got hot patched around 2am. In it's current state I don't see anyone doing this "legit" and doing more then ~10mil damage. PS. Anyone got a Jade...

2nd best. Still <3 my FSR.

That was my issue. After I built a sniper rifle to eat fps-noobs, I tried a shotgun as that or a rocket launcher usually works on everyone else and wasted a day trying to find the right combo. They just blow.

Aeon of Strife should be the next event - ascend to greater heights of power within your respective factions and take total control of the war effort!

Nothing at all is wrong with that. But when one of the selling points was LOOK AT ALL THE COMBOS FOR YOUR GUNS! It's kind of drummed up bull shit. :/

This is a community of EQ vets, right? I'm sure there's plenty snarling at the bit.

The game doesn't need much as far as balancing goes, but it doesn't have much longevity to it. You can get the best pieces with each weapon system with only a day played for each system (4 days). So what happens when everyone is running around the with the same guns?

Yes, I am. The only true barrier of skill at this point of the game is map awareness, communication, and the ability to learn what hero can do what, ie very low skill. Hence the EQ reference (knowing the zone, coordinating the raid, and knowing what to bring to kill your target), except in this...

AoS did the same thing. As well as stealing a few item/heros from Hon, I think Dota needs an AoS/ToB map.

You don't have to play the game when they provide the evidence to support the argument. Everything I pointed out was in one of the videos. The only skill involved was kiting enemies between your gate and your team. Everything else is coordinating with the other 4 minor characters on your team...

You're not going to see a high skill ceiling though. Items and individual exp are what promote that. Even their "strikers" deal relatively low dmg and most of what I saw cast was AOE or direct target. So what skill is there left? Who can kite to their team/gate better? Please. That's not skill...

No items is bleh. No base/creep economy is bleh. If the point is to provide alternate paths to victory, go all the way. Don't strip a working model and then only go half way with your own. WTB AoS + Dota 2 merge.

Game is good for dicking around for an hour or two, but between wonky hit detection/blast radii and weapon projectiles not always registering, I'm glad the game is F2P and I didn't waste any money on it. They definitely oversold the # of combinations you can make with weapons as well. Sure there...

I think the downside to ability draft is people not realizing which hero they have and the approximate stat/hp/mana gain. Oh you want to play svenn with 3 (mana intensive) actives and a shit ult? Go for it. Oh you want to backstab (agi dependent) as lich? Cool.

Centaur, warstomp, return, riptide, Dark Shroud (slark invis) - Treads, AC, Heart, Drums, Halberd. Regen 400hp/sec. Was going to get satanic if they didn't get rolled over when I tanked two lanes + rax and my team finally showed up. Died twice in 10 minutes, never died again after finishing...

Without seeing the draft pool, it looks fine to me. Assuming you kept good vision you could initiate on silencer or proceed to pick off hero's without worry. Especially if you positioned to take control of their jungle early, in a slug out I'd probably give it to radiant because of counter...

I'm pretty sure it's different in the books, but fairly sure in the movie Vigo explains he's slowly becoming a wraith and will come to serve the dark lord along the other 9. Wraith w/ringwraiths is still a ringwraith in my book.

Assuming benefits to PvP besides weapons / gear (middle game), Civilization building, or outside objectives requiring you to be well geared.

The oathbreaker route makes sense (cursed men whose souls cannot rest), the morgul blade doesn't as Frodo would have ended up a midget ringwraith.

Nature's Prophet w/ Wraithfire, Thunderclap, static field, perma invis + max dagon, necro3, euls, and bots. By the end of the game I had a pond full of gems, I felt like the wizard of the emerald city.

I feel the pain, down 4000->3400. My issue has been people taking captain and not knowing wtf is a decent draft before I can take the hat or group queue'ing and pulling the "get these heroes or feed" bs.

So I've found a Queue'ing glitch. If you d/c while queue'd and close the client. Your spot in the queue is still held. Can come back 4 hours later and insta queue before you even fully load the client. Repeated this three times so far.

Narsil is in Rivendell by this time.

Didn't it say Sauron returned, killed Talion, and a wraith saved his soul a la spirit bonding deus ex machina. So he isn't a wraith, just a dead human being kept alive by a wraith spirit?

I can't think of a single lotr flavored game that has done civilization well in any form. Now you play a ranger as well... Potential is there depending on where you reawaken from death, but this seems very much self-generating action oriented than story weaving RPG.

Each game had its good parts. I'd take The music, gameplay, gun customization, and depth of squad characterization and humanization of 3. The coherent story plots of 2 and 1. The quality of story DLC of 2 and darkish story tones in general. The real SIDEquests, the weapon/armor markets...

Ogre carry was already viable in lower tier or AR matches. Especially when paired with another person with any offensive ability whatsoever. RNG gods are the snowball pantheon.

Such as preventing a human/elven patrol from poaching your controlled or infiltrated orcs or ...?

Happy to see shadow amulet finally has a purpose beyond waiting to finish SB. Tranqs still bad until they reduce the timer or penalty for creeps for or against. Terrorblade finally arriving. Time to relearn how to play him. Whee!

The biggest problem I see is servers aren't region locked (player drops / excessive lag) and the queue needs to be split between solo and group (non-client coms) queue. They already split the mmr, might as well go all the way. Communication wins games, if you insist on running non-client coms...

I found it's playing CD on the right day and time (prime time). Less variable in team mmr and worse case scenario is taking the cpt hat for myself. I got back to 4000 (about where I think I should be) that way. As soon as I play off hours though, bam, 3700 again.

If the game matches the pitch, that's going to be one badass game. Hopefully the nemesis system works out to be more than just Radiant on steroids.

Speaking of ley lines, is it really pseudo science? Or is it poorly defined naturally(or manmade) occurring electromagnetism?

First game I thought of was Stronghold, as has been mentioned multiple times. Castle Sieging is a genre that hasn't been covered well in recent years though.

Clear out your mods / reinstall Skyrim. Download the free HD DLC from steam, reinstall SKSE, get your preferred mod manager (I use MO with no issues). From the workshop install: SkyUI, Towns and Villages Enhanced (get the non DG/DB cities), Enhanced Cities (Helgen will not work with vanilla...
