have you tried it since?

literally the only time i hear about people having issues with launcher is on patch day

[Byel]

They are garbage because their official release for download is shit and they have zero customer support. P99 has better support and we have like 1/10000th the size.

I tried LoL first but after 2 days of reading player suggested fixes to the mannnny posts of broken downloads/patchers/etc it dawned on me. Why should I jump through hoops, lowering desktop resolution and cleaning up the official download file to play? When another game is out there that works haste free..

So unless you have a working game you'd like to compress to shoot me..

Anyone play Dota2? :)

[xKoopa]

idk man

i downloaded, installed, patched, no issues ever

also ive heard reddit is how you get customer support out of riot lol

That's a pretty low bar to set as normal..but yeah I've tried since then. Probably 3 hours of attempts, re downloads, file clensong, renaming, pc resolution tweaks, etc.

What happens is I open launcher and I get the LoL shield for 1 second. Then it goes away and nothing comes up.

I gave up.

Play like 3 games a night with some old DAoC and EVE buddies. Shit's way better than that hold your hand league crap. Anti-fun mechanics? Come on you pussies you play classic EQ for fuck sake don't be bitches.

Confused w all this unamerican gibberish.

I play both, but I enjoy DoTA more. Mainly because characters are vastly different; and have pretty insane mechanics. Not sure which one I would go with "more skillful" to play. I do know that it's really difficult to carry in League(you have to have a decent team); not so much in DoTA (If you are playing a hyper carry, and your team helps a little and creates space. You're golden Ponyboy).

LoL is for bluebies, Dota2 is for men

[Byel]

Who wants to coach this blue piece of trash? Haha more seriously, I've found I like Lion and Bounty Hunter the most. Any other suggestions to try out?

My biggest problem so far is figuring out what items to use and that stupid courier

someone told me dota doesnt have skillshots

is this true?

[Halius]

I have played both, though not extensively so my opinion probably isn't that good. I prefer DoTA2 over LoL just because I enjoy the characters and gameplay more. However, I play LoL more often only because I have friends that play on there. I still don't play either that often, but I would prefer DoTA2.

just remember, dota is what made lol...

there are tons of skill shots in dota, for example Pudge's hook

[Byel]

It's my understanding Dota1= LoL. And Dota2 took a more competitive/skill approach? True or false.

Also now we have Hots coming from blizzard wowizing Mobas w like 12 hero selection.

False. Dota 1 is to LoL as EQ is to WoW. Dota 2 is same game as Dota 1 just a couple new items and heroes

[Sckrilla]

HotS > DotA 2 > LoL

[Swish]

HotS > DotA 2 > LoL > HoN

ftfy :)

dota needs more ridiculous descriptive name characters like "Kneeling Orc" and "Masturbater"


...and why can't you enjoy the game without this going on in the bottom left corner?

Ability Draft is where men are made

Decided to run a pub before bed last night...75 mins later after I had to beg my scrub team to help finish the enemy off after solo pushing through their bottom and most of their ancients towers. Couple things I'd like to see.

1.) Spanish team mate filter.
2.) Turn off sounds when Julio decides to spam the notification marker thing
3.) Blood seeker or whoever, with your bleed damage when I run away..I hate you.

[Radiskull]

1.) Spanish team mate filter.


Good luck. It feels like 80% of US East is Peruvian and awful.

[Millburn]

1.) Spanish team mate filter.


That's the dream! God damn PR scum in Dota, it's why you don't queue mid day on US East.

^ play DOTA2 so that you have to put up with intolerant xenophobes like the last three posters ^

[Byel]

Lol I don't mind if I could understand them. Dude was saying something over and over. I think he wanted a guy to grab the rune because when we said we didn't know wtf he was saying he blew up the marker thing. Then every time he wanted help he'd do the same thing. Couldnt speak English but he understood when I told him to fucking knock it off and asked the match to report me..lmao.

Why does no game have some sort of translator? I would think If google translate could do it a knock off could be implemented? I know w different dialects and slang it would be difficult but just to be able to understand..I mean you are on a team..kind of important.

75 mins match? Good lord glad i stuck with LoL. Longest match i've had in 7 months was 50 mins.

[Byel]

To be fair. And again I'm a new scrub but this says wonders about my competition in the match. I wrecked through the bottom to their ancient while they circle jerk ed up top w my teammates. Then we had a guy plug, and another was off jungling. But if my remaining mates pushed the last few towers so we could take ancient it would have been much quicker. Took lots of begging to get them to do it lol they essentially left me to be gang banged everytime the enemy re spawned together for 20 minutes
