I remember tricking newbies, to buy wards and that they should keep it inventory... to be able to view more of the map and to see invi units. so even fell for it when I told them they grant bonuses...
One of my friends played many games with wards in his inventory.. he didnt even understand when his teammates were shouting at it... :-D

existing player? you mean who had the beta? I saw there is some kind of launch que, what is it?
Click to expand...

as said in the link that you posted, players who have been playing the beta till now can play the game normally without waiting in any queues or something like that..only new players who were not in beta till now will have to wait in some queues till they get some kind of mail from valve that they can play public mm games..in short we can play normally like we have been playing till now without any waiting...also i think for new players offline mode with bots and the tutorial will work but not sure about this...

The queues are for people getting to play the game, like the queues for Beta invites in the beginning after players registered. Match making queues are the same for new and old.
They will be able to install the game as spectator mode, but can only play once they get the greenlight from valve.
They have taken this step to avoid load on servers, so they can increase the servers according to the requests and then allow them to play the game..

Start playing the game, get some momentum(3-4 months), then play with some new players, who have no idea what the game is about. Then you will realize how frustrating it is to waste 45 minutes with them. It is not like cs, that you join a server and leave it at your own wish. If you leave a game you will be in punishment pool. So you have stay in the server till the game finishes.

Not much influx, I guess dota 2 beta was available to each and every steam user. So dont think there will be much crowd. And the dota matchmaking still works. I mean I have seen this, you will get matches with players of similar level. For e.g you are lvl 40, so you will be matched with/against the same level of players 20-60 . like this. You will not get player in your team who is lvl 1. But still sometime it doesnot happen as intended.

And everyone knows there are players from a certain country, who join each and every server in the world, with english language selected, though they dont even bother to chat in english.

this is no click and shoot game.
BTW, regarding your statement about new players: there are two types who have played many games in the form of RPG/FPS and the other new to PC gaming. For the first type I would suggest at first watch more games/youtube videos than playing. For second type no offence but learn how to click, then play with bots then play in multiplayer.


There are priority in reporting and you get level upgrade about that. With each level you will get slots of how many reports you can do in one week. This depends on how many successful reports have been made. So in short it will require few high level reports to made a player to play in LPQ. In this game your action will affect your teammates. This is no CS.

If one feeds(which is the general case with newbies) then no matter how good other 4 players are 99% chance your team will loose. Cause there are some late game heroes who if farmed cant be stopped.
