NDA has been lifted slightly, I can talk about it but not post pics/vids.
Just played a game. Seems quicker than dota for some reason. Most of the heroes/items are the same, just with different names so it may take some getting used to.
Graphics are obviously better. There is now an anti-leaver system. So if you leave too many games, be prepared to be blacklisted. If the majority of your team leaves, you can leave without a penalty. No point in wasting any time.
Netcode I can say, is pretty damn good. Played with 300 ping and there seems to be no lag at all.

join the facebook group to get the key.
who else is playing?
network code damn good?
300ms ping and still playable?
and yeah, it loads very fast too.
graphics much better than warcraft iii
plus the client is less than 300mb
Added on July 18, 2009, 10:41 pmi only tried single player.
as in i hosted a game myself to check out the graphics, animations.
definitely reminds you about warcraft iii
but faster, smoother animation.
characters and items got different names
but the stats are still the same.
