I'm worried we're going to see an influx of heroes with point-and-click CC

Are all ults in hots that shit?

In League every ult is pretty gamechanging, this ult is basically Rammus with cc immunity, seems pretty garbage considering D.Va has no hard cc of her own.

>>376378194
Seems like the opposite, considering they're giving Tyrande a stun cleanse.

>>376380692
I have mixed feelings about line of sight shit, but it's usually implemented poorly regardless. Last hitting has always been garbage, though.

To be honest - as a guy who has played mobas since DotA way back in the day - that HotS is the closest to getting the formula "right". The game actively encourages team interaction and laning is almost nonexistent, but you still have to manage it to get your experience.

HotS also has the greatest variety in heroes. I also believe that the exclusion of items is for the better.

The game is still grossly flawed as any moba, but to me it comes the closest to hitting the mark and I hope future mobas kind of go that route.

Snowballing and laning = cancer and not fun or competitive even. You don't generally have to be good to snowball in league for example. A lucky kill early on may be all you need. By simply being marginally ahead you can pressure very hard. Hell, as a jungler you can carry basically every game with just map awareness in soloqueue. That's kind of stupid in a competitive team game imo.

Wow, they made a mediocre looking character look even worse in a shittier game.

Pretty impressive. I've seen Garry's mod videos with better animation.

>>376381000
In terms of the rosh pit, it's more about balance. It makes doing rosh a little bit safer and checking if the enemy is doing rosh something that takes effort (using a skill that gives vision, actually walking into the pit) rather than just sticking a ward outside or strolling past at max vision range. I agree on some of the smaller staircases though, Icefrog just wanted to nerf the jungle even more and did it in a pretty lazy way.

Whats the big difference from it and others?

I tried one other one on steam before (Smite maybe its been awhile), but couldn't get into it.

>>376383018
The motion is jerky as fuck. Looks like an okay SFM animation, not something from an actual game dev.

>>376382470

>>376383158
Individual performance does not matter. It's a boring shitfest compared to dota where it's way easier to fuck up and also the possibilities for making great plays are much higher.

>>376381362
I agree that snowballing and laning is cancer but the problem is that no MOBA that doesn't have this aspect is going to be considered "fun" because it doesn't have the skinnerbox of shitting on others from an advantaged position that others do.

My other issue with HotS is I dislike almost all of the objectives, I feel like the objectives in HotS maps are forced due to Blizzard's inability to create natural objectives like Dragon in League and Roshan in Dota.

>>376383158
Smite is ok but balance is a mess, that I remember it's the only one from the third person perspective moba.
Dota is by far the hardest but also the most unfun to actually learn to play because of the sheer amount of active items you need plus all the extra mechanics. (anything beyond certain point is smurfs curbstomping you)
League was the middle point between dota and hots in which you had to learn a few things but you wouldn't get overwhelmed by it. (the game has a really rigid meta that moves around items having really bullshit synergy with certain champions making more than half of the roster useless or subpar to it)
Hots it's your light "casul" game in which you don't have to farm creeps nor gold and have no items but talents. (in which the gameplay is very simplified but tries to juggle gameplay with core mechanics like exp soaking or objective based maps)

Tl;dr
Different strokes for different folks.

I'm kinda surprised HOTS isn't more popular just from essentially being Blizzard's Smash Bros

Maybe the issue is just that MOBAs are just cancer in general.

I liked it back when DotA was a thing but it was new and I played a lot of Starcraft/Warcraft so it all felt pretty natural to me in the first place.

Hell, I even enjoyed the first two seasons of LoL. Maybe I'm just getting old and losing my tolerance for autistic shit/players.

>>376383043
If you think in that way, but you can get it on every here while he has innate 3 escapes. His active spells are amazing, all of them is something plus an escape. Pounce is gap closer, movement ability and an escape. Dark pact is amazing because it's an escape, nuke and a farming tool. Essence shift is't an escape, but it's both boosts Slark and weakens his enemies. Shadow dance is sustain, mobility and another escape that can be used to initiate.

The only thing close to Slark that I know is Fizz, but his only real escape is playful/trickster. I remember his dash is fixed distance so you can end up behind en enemy but you can't use it like pounce in any direction you want and need to be facing enemy limiting your escape. Altho his ranged AOE nuke ult was very fun when you disengage and trow it on fleeing enemy.

>>376383158
>Whats the big difference from it and others?
HotS has objectives, League and DotA do not. The objectives are added to create a more structured gameplay experience that's harder to fuck up. In DotA (and probably League, never played it) there isn't anything that tells you when to kill towers or that kills towers for you like when you capture a boss or make a boss spawn by doing the objective in HotS. These creates situations (in DotA) where you can make a game losing decision to not push without even noticing. It's incredibly easy to miss your chance to push after a well-executed teamfight because you want to farm or whatever, whereas in HotS completing the objective leads to something doing the pushing for you in most of the game modes.

Because at this point most of the people you play against, even if they have been absolute shitters for years, are so ingrained in 'how you are supposed to play' that they have no room for error, even if they suck themselves. That is where 99% of the toxicity comes from, because they conflate new/bad players as people intentionally throwing or feeding.

instead of being insecure about my item choices, i get to be insecure about my talent choices

They should just give up and accept LoL is the autist moba choice.

>>376386853
Dota is the autist MOBA choice. LoL and SMITE are the casual MOBA choices. HotS has no place in the MOBA market.

>>376387827
Also if you're insecure about item choices there's a website called hotslogs. It has hero details and you can look up what the most-picked talents are by %. It's not the best but it gives you a decent idea of what to pick.

Like, if one ult has a 90% pick rate over the other then it's a rather sure bet that the latter ult is dogshit.

>>376385189
Never ever, faggot. Suck blizzcock like you were born to do.

>>376383640
Makes sense I guess.

I'm still surprised to find I liked a game based off the worst thing about Warcraft 3 (I hated the hero focus in WC3 over its RTS elements) Feels like an RTS without base building, which isn't far off from parts of the original Warcraft.

>>376383996
I see. I had a love hate relationship on that part. I like it because it keeps the game moving and not dragging out, but teammates that don't seem to notice objectives are frustrating to say the least when you are the only one that shows up and end up getting bukakke by the other team who all arrived.

Seriously won more against other people than AI since other people fuck up like that too at least.

Doubt I'll play iit outside of events because the grind looks worse than WoW even if it is kinda fun.

WHO THE FUCK THOUGH IT WAS A GOOD IDEA

>>376387296
That still doesn't put her in the front lines. If anything it still makes her an annoying back line that people likes to ignore despite being able to keep the team fighting for whole minutes. If you follow after Diablo, Zayra, Anub, etc, you are asking for the enemy team to kill you first, or for you to pop your stasis on yourself, and then die

>>376388641
Except you are going to be on the frontlines hitting their backlines because the entirety of their non-ability damage is negated permanently.

>>376376985
That's a good question but voice aside she's really fucking hot.

>>376389357
>You mean the tanks and bruisers who dump their ability damage and that's it?
Yes them. You're not tanky anon. and it doesn't take much to drop auirel even with her heals. Stuns, roots, silences, abilities that drop spell power. Are all things that fuck her over, and that just the tanks and bruisers.

>>376384269

Jeff literally confirmed they're adding Oni Genji & Officer DVA to look boxes later this year

>>376388631
>A full death results in 150% normal rate xp.
But it doesn't. Both D.va and her mech give 50% xp when killed.

>>376390168
Any mention of the HOTS original skins making it to Overwatch?

>>376390328
This is the real question. Some of those HOTS skins are real fucking nice.

EVA 01 Genji fucking WHEN

>>376388254
It's a softbox umbrella, for softening the lighting.

>>376390219
Literally says that no where. Says the mech is worth 50%. A full death, based on this knowledge, is worth 150% for her

As someone who thinks assfaggots are shit and the people who play them are even shittier it was probably the least offensive just on account of it being so easy to play.

>>376391173
Don't forget shorter games. Having a 10 minute shitty game is way better than having a 30-50 minute shitty game

>>376391417

Not him but this. The best advantage of HotS is that if things are going bad, you won't be trapped there for close to an hour because your team is stubborn. Matches are relatively short.

>>376383473
The only thing I hate about the objectives is how even when you're losing bad they still keep popping up giving your opponents just more ammo to fire at you along with mercs, bosses and waves.

I think the objective should only happen when both teams are equal in map progress or close to it.

Or make it harder for the team that constantly keeps getting the objectives.

>>376392280
Objectives are there to help you finish the game, they are just as likely to crush a already losing team as they are to turn the tides and let you win that match

>>376377968
It didn't tho?

>>376392280
Objectives popping up when you're behind can be a good thing though. It provides you additional opportunities to catch your opponent in a bad team-fight, or abuse the fact that they have to teamfight, to split push and even out the board state.

The issue is that most of the 'fun' objective maps that are on rotation right now are shithouse. The pirate map, the spider queen map, and the garden terror map are all great examples of this - but they don't exist right now. Towers of Doom and Hanamura are OK...but should never be in the same rotation. Fuck knows what Blizz were thinking...

>>376381238

I don't recall them saying this year, they just said 'Soon'

>>376393027
When you're getting your shit pushed in winning a team fight is almost impossible since you're defending against mercs, map objectives and you're lower level.

It all becomes so overwhelming that turning the tide is practically a miracle.

>>376392967
Which is bad game design.

I'm not the overwatch art team or gameplay designer so I'm not sure what classifies as less visual clarity, but overwatch skins seems to also be less extravagant and a lot of times are just simple changes that don't change the characters profile that much

>>376397276
I have it and I hate it, I would gladly swap it out with mercy's Swiss skin

To be fair, it wouldn't really fit.
It's a bit too starcraft for the OW universe which has light sci fi

I avoided D3 like the fucking plague came out and just played PoE instead. Only bought it something like 6 months ago and I have a good time every now and again with it when PoE leagues are absolute garbage (they usually are) and since PoE has no character that has the same aesthetic and theme that Witch Doctor has.

If you bought into that piece of shit knowing full well of the RMAH and "le fuck that loser" you have only yourself to blame.

Really made me think

We have a Nutcracker skin for Zenyatta and a Mariachi skin for Reaper.

I can't imagine that anything is beyond the realm of possibility at this point.

What's happening to me

>>376395514
Turn rate is the reason any melee hero without mobility isn't completely useless ya twat.

nothing wrong with enjoying hots, it's just some casual fun

This game looks more and more garbage every time people link something from it.

Man Blizzard has really sunk into the shitter...

>>376380808
Because controlling a game with click to walk to looks janky as fuck

Welcome to like 7 years ago.

when will they add goku

>>376376000
nice trips. D.VA's ability is a slow and isnt as game breaking as SK's ulti (for anyone thats played DOTA 2, you know how busted this is with veil and the aghs initiation; absolutely no one can respond to it without good warding and BKBs). D.VA's ult just looks like another slow. Id much rather have her pistol ult so i can just rain mechs on the enemy team all day.

>>376380808
It's probably the turn rate.

In League, if you turn your character 180 degrees it's almost instant.

But in Dota 2 there's a rate at which heroes turn , which makes it seem very slow and unresponsive
