Hi

I was just wondering, if we will eventually have to move to dota 2 reborn. Has anyone tried it? Is it going to be official client for dota 2?

what is in reborn? new champs and maps?
Its a new engine! Dota 2 had been using world of warcraft engine (same for dota 1).

Dota 2 reborn is a brand new engine running dota 2. Improved graphics and all.

I wasnt sure if valve was going to make it official.

Well I have installed it and tried it. The new interface looks really sleek and awesome. Also, custom games are a godsend. They are so much fun. Stuff like 10v10 games, Pudge wars, Skillshot, Dota soccer etc. But pings aren't good on them so far, mainly since most of the servers aren't that near Pakistan. Plus, since there is no penalty on custom games, people leave all the time and you hardly ever get a proper match. Still, when it happens, its loads of fun.

As for the graphics, I literally haven't noticed any improvements aside from the water, which looks a bit better. Maybe they haven't implemented the graphical overhaul yet.

dotA uses WoW's old engine.
DOTA 2 uses Source engine.
DOTA 2 Reborn uses Source 2 engine.

From what I've seen, Source 2 greatly improves performance over Source engine.

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
