This is delightful!

vod?

You must get yourself an aeropress, it produces such a nice tasting coffee it's unreal, I always found French press leaving a bitter taste. I get some Etheopian Sidamo coffee beans from the York coffee emporium they grind it for an aero press as well so my grinder is now useless.

Lavazzaa is also pretty tasty as well.

So it's second life taken to the next level?

The only warranted complaint that I think people have is the whole crate thing as they said it wasn't going to have any pay to receive guns kinda thing.

Even with crates being added their plans for it are pretty awesome as they can drop anywhere on a server that you're on and it lures zombies to the location anyway, to me it just seems like an idea to bring the players to a fight, similar to how DayZ does it with their airfields and military bases.

And the people complaining about servers, bugs etc. on day 1 were fucking annoying, it's early access ffs!

I WOULD LIKE A SLICE OF THIS PIE

I cannot fathom how he is able to do this? Can he control his pipes in such a way that when they (on the rare occasions obviously) do miss that he can make them stop by their feet and explode? This is insane! How was I not aware of such a technique?

The VAC ban idea is just a way for them to actually punish players, it would be like a mark on their record, something to show that this player has an infraction against their account etc.

My issue is that Valve should be doing something to actually take control over the scenes for their games, with them not doing so you are leaving it to third party organisations that could just leave Dota2 at any point if they really wanted to.

Like LoL have fines for pro players behaving badly in public games and stuff, there's so much that Valve really need to get a grasp on especially in Dota 2 that is just causing harm in the long term.

One tournament banned a player out of many, and it doesn't matter if it wasn't a Valve sponsored tournament the guys still threw a game so they can win money ffs!

If there's no real substantial punishment other than a players reputation being harmed then people are still likely to do it.

Valve really need to start stepping in if they want their games to have any credibility at all, if this happened in LoL those players would be fined or banned from taking part in any tournaments in the future (I know it's easier for them to regulate it as they run the main tournament people play for). But Valve allowing the community to take control is kinda stupid.

Solo did it in dota2 and he's playing again, I'm pretty sure he was playing like 6 months after being found out.

There's no guarantee that this would be the end of it as there isn't any real punishment. They should have their main accounts VAC'd or an actual punishment applied by Valve that sets a statement of "if you try and pull of shit like this we will fuck you son".

Dota2 and CSGO really aren't going to last as long as they could do without some serious input from Valve to try and keep the game professional.

apparently it's because the dude isn't very likeable, it's the only video i've ever seen of him and i thought he made some good points.

pretty good video putting things in another perspective, I do feel like some have blown it out of proportion, but it's understandable that some are still upset after being told that paying will get you guns (even though it's not 100% guaranteed to get you anything at all)

This shit is going to happen more because people keep getting baited by concept art and promotional videos. They give their money to an alpha game and get mad when things change or its not functioning correctly.

The crate dropping is justified as the developer did say this wouldnt happen.

Some developers are really taking the piss out of early access. Only decent early access games are DayZ, The Forest & Rust.

Everyone is trying to get in on the survival horror shit because if its done right it will be fucking amazing and people will love it. It will be like playing cowboys & Indians, having bases, creating factions etc. It's why I got dayz and still enjoy it at times. Its the game that we all would love but nobody has gotten right yet

I think c9 will remain the same level as Notail is a really fucking good support, PLD has been having a few off games and never really found the same form from Kaipi/Speedgaming where he was out of this world.

Misery is the main reason that will stop c9 being a top team, he might have a lot of experience but from people saying his attitude isn't right and I think his time in Alliance wasn't really anything amazing, he was pretty decent with LGD.Int though so who knows he might have found a team that will really let him shine.

EG I think will struggle at the start but will probably become dominant again, I think in some ways it might benefit them as Fear can actually play carry heroes and Sumail will play mid heroes, mason pretty much was restricted to potm, storm spirit, brewmaster on the safe lane whilst rtz played more farming oriented heroes in mid.

Secret seem pretty strong but I think it depends on who plays what role, I'd have to say kky would have to go back to support and have 1. rtz 2. s4 3.zai as I can't really see s4 trying offlane again and zai has experience playing offlane anyway.

I do kinda feel that these changes aren't really making any team that much stronger though, I can't see them really fighting against the top chinese teams but who knows.

Turns out my thoughts on secrets lineup was right (i swear i didnt see the announcement!).

Team Secret
1. Artour 'Arteezy' Babaev
2. Gustav 's4' Magnusson
3. Ludwig 'zai' Wåhlberg
4. Clement 'Puppey' Ivanov
5. Kuro 'KuroKy' Salehi Takhasomi

Only thing that concerns me with Secret now is #1 rtz being in NA and practice times and #2 whether or not Puppey will actually follow the more farmed support role.

It will probably be like Brink but it might not suck as hard, I feel like balancing is probably going to be the major issue with this game.
