Dota 2

[Y'all Qaeda]

There is a chat where we need to schedule the game. Should I arrange for Sunday +- 5PM?

Round 1 scheduled for 12:00 from the website, so I'm pretty sure 17:00 will be too late.

 

[Slaught3r]

From the email.

Didn't see that. Sozzels.

So we will have to chat this evening about the plan of action.

Guys Im thinking of starting Dota 2 although I have absolutely 0% experience lol. Is it relatively easy to learn? Or am I going to get my dick chopped off by people calling me a noob and raging

Is it relatively easy to learn?

Imagine, if you will, a learning curve shaped like a cliff face...

Play against bots for a while to start. People will inevitably rage, mute everyone and play on

 

[Slaught3r]

STFU Noob!

My advice would be to watch guys play. If you have a friend or two on your friends list, watch them to get the basics about last hitting etc. There is also a tutorial in game which I would recommend you play.

Lol

Cool. Will let Muunkey know as well. Shall we say 6PM? Will also see if I can get 5 guys to "scrim" against. Just to test one or two combos as well as one or two other things I would like us to try.

6PM is good for me, just need to confirm with D3x! and EAzzzy!

Deadshet. Am I right in saying that the teams for rage will be decided this weekend? Seems like it.

Lots of training missions and bot matches, a lot of youtube videos for "dota 2 beginners" please.

Cool 7 is good for me.

I get 300 ms on eu, whats the best ISP for eu gaming? I would love for this to come down.

 

[Slaught3r]

That won't change by much. Doesn't matter which ISP you go with.

Try playing on SA servers.

You kidding? You can easily get 170ms if you choose the right ISP, and that's more than playable. I actually prefer playing on EU, just because the playerbase is bigger

GaskooN, I haven't been in the ADSL loop for a while but I hear good things from WebAfrica, MWEB and Afrihost. See if you got mates that will lend you their account, just so you can be sure it's the ISP and not the line.
