only a couple of times played allstars, didn't see the appeal of it. I prefer the roc version which the guy who made allstars based his on.

I don't completely hate the map, its just that there are so many better AoS's out there.

And I agree with you Sargon.

"Everyone" is a bit of a stretch.

However, mostly, there's only two opinions on DotA:
- It totally sucks
- It's the greatest ever.

There doesn't seem to be a middle...

And, well, if views like those come together, it will only go down...
Down as in, it will go from DotA sucks / is great to You suck / are great.
Or something like that.

And, once someone mentions Icefrog (or similar), it's all down-hill...

Not completely true. I don't like it more than I like it, but I have no objections against it. It's just that there are, like Siefer said, so many better Aos maps out there.

Dota is played way too much. They abuse the game there are so many different maps out there just waiting to be explored but they may never make it to b.net just because those many people playing dota won't go to any other maps except for dota. I have to say it is made well but it gets really old to see that map...and getting booted when entering to see what it is about.

Yes i have to agree Dota is good very good but i have seen better but think woul dblizzard have made alot of money if they didnt have DOTA?

And i have made a idea what you do is you name you map DOTA make the same NAME as DOTA V(currect one) then you play dota you get a screen shot of dota Then you cut out the mini map to use it for the box you see when you click on a game in the game list. and then you make your map and every one will think its dota becuase it has the mini map but when they play the game and the loading screen appears they find out its not and some might quit but others might not to see what this map is about and if it is good then you keep making version with the real name beuase now since people have tryed it they might play again. Yall follow me? It is a perfect idea to get your game played.

I guess so... but it sounds very underhanded.

I'm not sure it would work too good.

Well all the people would probably flame your map for "copying" dota. Just a thought.

Don't worry, I think this new opensource DOTA will be the downfall of DOTA Allstars. Bnet will be flooded with noobie imitation DOTAs and everyone will go off it (at least I can hope).

opensource DotA :eek:

Sounds a bit mean if one of us releases an unprotected DotA, but if they are doing it... that's awesome

thats a template, no heroes
not saying its bad, (i love that template, it is a great start for anyone) but it isnt a type of map that would be "ripped off" since the "ripper offer" would have to make heroes (which actually requires work)

I mean we're gonna end up with versions with either
a)Default WC3 Heroes
b)Unbalanced with unedited abilities given at random to heroes
c)Rigged

> a) Default WC3 Heroes

These Heroes are much more balanced than some custom ones I've seen.

And, actually, given that noone ever uses them, they are somewhat new... :p

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
