dota 2 official release and THG guild
Post by HappyDavid »
now dota2 has been officially released so if anyone wants to have a go you can just download and play. I created a THG guild in dota 2 just to prevent some dodgy person in the dota community stealing our name. it's a fun game with known people (NOT Josh!!!!). Miez DAV Vorp Precizion and myself nomally plays around in the evenings so if anyone wants to have a try and join the guild, just let me know. Binksy, if you install and play it, i will promote you to the guild's leader :D

Binsky the game is free to play similar money mechanics to TF2 where you can buy weapons and other items (they dont affect game play though purely aesthetic)

Yes, the game is completely free, Binks. :D And Dave and myself will pick up the guild leadership then. So if you like, you can just install the game and enjoy.
The guild is by invite only these days. so Dave and I will send out the invites.
Matt/Salith, add me on steam friend and I will send you invites or Dave can do it when he is online.

I've never actually played a MOBA but I've been looking into DOTA for a while could be interesting. I love being carried after all.

I have invited you to the guild, Gates.you should be able to see it when you start dota 2 next time. Dave is now guild leader and Miez is the officer so both of them can send out invites too. If we have enough ppl, we can play some in house dots scrim.
Re: dota 2 official release and THG guild
It would be nice to have more THG people play dota 2 now that they are releasing the game Although it could still take a while for new players to be able to play the game as there is still a launch queue.
For new players, the game can be very confusing and overwhelming the first time you play it (at least for me haha). What helped me get into the game was reading guides and watching some VODS. After that you should start with a bot game to get the feeling
This is a great guide for starters: Welcome to dota, you suck but there are also helpful guides available in the dota 2 steam community here
The guy who wrote the guide has also made a lot of youtube movies that explain mechanics of the game: Purgegamers
It is also helpful to play the tutorials that are available in the game, although it is not completely finished yet I think

Just to be little OT here, I don't think DOTA is particularly a bad game, but what kills it for me, is the community.. I have seen more hate maybe only on COD or CS servers.

The community is getting better, but its an aspect of the game I've noticed too. Playing as 5 though means that the muppets can only be on the other team :o
