This means what, exactly? All the changes to heroes (currently in the game) and items? Or is anything else included?

[Lactose_Intolerant]

Anyone have a new thread ready?

Yes, for now the changes are on the test client only. They'll be moved to the normal client tomorrow assuming there are no massive bugs.

Yes.

Spoiler

He only gets this vein when he has finished farming.

 

[Aselith]

[Drkirby]

"dota_game_mode_8" "NEW MODE"

So descriptive.

Also, there is this:

"dota_league" "League"

Oh, and there is this:

"DOTA_WearableType_Announcer" "Announcer"
"DOTA_WearableType_Custom_Courier" "Custom Courier"
"DOTA_WearableType_Treasure_Chest" "Treasure"
"DOTA_TreasureChest_Type" "Treasure"
"DOTA_WearableType_Fan" "Fan Item"
"DOTA_WearableType_Egg" "Egg"

Alright, here comes the Dota 2 Virtual pets.

"DOTA_Item_Mysterious_Egg" "Mysterious Egg"
"DOTA_Item_Desc_Mysterious_Egg" "You aren't sure how this egg appeared in your pack! It seems to hunger for magical energy."

Also, Valve updated the Tutoral stuff. Looks like there is going to be a basic mechanics tutorial starting Shadow Shaman.

 

[Deadstar]

What is "Team Creation" ?

 

[Archie]

What is "Team Creation" ?

Make a group with your buddies to matchmake against other organized teams.

There will probably be a ladder and stuff too.

How is this different than party matchmaking? Do you need a full 5 to partake?

There's probably a static roster you need to register + team rankings and MM (vs individual ranking) and other similar stuff.

 

[throwawayname]

Your team gets an own chat channel, you can create ingame banners etc, the same stuff the pro teams had for the past months I guess.

 

[Drkirby]

Are you still restricted to just one team?

 

[Aselith]

Couple more shots of Magnus.

 

[Archie]

Maybe that new mode is an egg raising mini game.
