  1. I don't mind the lack of custom avatars, as it makes it so that the existing avatars are all consistent, and similarly sized.

    What I do mind is that it has been over a year and 5 months since I posted that VVVVVV avatar (want want want want want want).

    Anywho, back to lurking.

    LT: Back to lurking. We'll see when you notice your avatar change. :-)

    Gosh, I'm a week late for my yearly avatar-thread-check and look what happens. That'll show me.

  2. I find that the best quick keys for items for me are Tab, F and spacebar, this allows you to keep your hands right around qwer while still having a few items nearby for quick activation. If you have a mouse with more than three buttons, you can assign items to them as well.

  3. i'll reduce that fee down to 5% + 50$ or 50$ (whichever saves you more).

    Now I just may have comprehended this part wrong, but I can see no situation where 5% + $50 will ever be less than just $50.

    More on topic: those are some pretty good rigs with great specs and very reasonable prices.

  5. Looks like more waves of invites are going out, and "the most active Dota 2 players" are also getting additional invites to give out (I got a couple, lol). Check your email etc, etc.

  6. Yeah, if you count all his passive combinations, that bumps it up to 1000 unique configurations.

    Which is what makes it so hard to balance him. While I haven't played invoker in years, I do remember having a fun time mauling people with giant flaming meteoroids.

    I'm also really liking that they haven't implemented a concede function. It seems people are now more willing to stick it out, and don't just give up at 15 min if things are looking bad. I played witch doctor in a 4v5 where we were able to eventually win despite an incredibly farmed sand king and a mediocre pudge who left at lvl 8.

  7. The above counter-reasoning makes sense, thanks.

    As for Hardcore, I doubt they will include it. I have also lost numerous characters to very short bursts of poor connection, so will not miss it in the slightest.

    Q. Will I be able to use the currency-based auction house while in Hardcore mode?

    No. Hardcore mode is not implemented in the Diablo III closed beta test. When Diablo III launches, players who choose to take on Hardcore mode will not have access to the currency-based auction house. Hardcore players will be limited to buying and selling items from the gold-based auction house.

    Two questions answered in one.

  8. I remember when naix used to be incredibly imbalanced. At one point he was a str hero who had an unbelievable agi gain per levelup, ridiculous lifesteal and on-attack debuff that made escape impossible. As soon as you bought him some strength items he could wreck the enemy team single-handedly.

    Well I finally got my invite and I am looking forward to some serious death match shenanigans.

    EDIT: Oh wait, they haven't implemented "Deathmode" yet. Ho hum.

  9. Death Match was seriously my favorite game mode. I am sad that they never implemented it in HoN. The inclusion of DM in DotA 2 will constitute an insta-buy on my part.

    I'm quoting my last post because it still entirely sums up my opinion of DotA 2, with the addendum that if they don't implement DM, then I most likely won't buy the game (or at the very least I will wait for one of those crazy Steam sales).

    I'll definitely not switch over if they try to appeal to the 'oldschool' DotA players and include goddamn denying and five second stuns like fucking HoN

    If they were really trying to appeal to oldschool DotA players, they would turn you into a sheep for a second every time you accidentally targeted one of your allies :twisted:

  10. I semi-recently got a new personal best time of 1:06 on Super Metroid with 100% items. I absolutely love the Metroid series, though I have yet to beat the original Metroid and Metroid 2.I just cant keep all of those near identical rooms straight in my memory and inevitably get lost.
