I believe even discussing the beta here goes against their TOS. Most betas only allow participants to post their feedback of impressions on the beta board of that game. They do not allow discussion of betas on forums outside their own.

QUOTE
Beta tests are confidential. The beta games, including information about features and functionality to be offered as part of the games, are confidential. If you participate in a beta test, you will use your best efforts to safeguard and to prevent unauthorized access to, copying, disclosure, and unauthorized use of the beta games. In addition no recordings, no screenshots, no assets grabs of any type will be permitted. You will carry out the testing personally and not provide access to beta games to any other person. You agree that breach of the above confidentiality obligations will cause irreparable harm to S2, and S2 is entitled to (in addition to any other remedies available to it) ex parte injunctive relief without bond to prevent the breach or threatened breach of your obligations.


So for those that have formed their opinion of the beta and have feedback, use the games beta boards rather than posting impressions here. It will help them as well as avoid people from forming unfair opinions of what is essentially a work in progress. It is unfair to 'review' a beta.

We can wait for the final version/demo to come out before writing reviews/impressions for others to view.

Post your impressions and feedback here please:

Heroes of Newerth is being developed by S2 and Icefrog has nothing to do with it.

On second thought, I heard IceFrog was in charge of the game depths or smth as well.

No this is entirely S2 Games. The reason for the confusion was of a blog post by Icefrog stating he was contacted a few years back for S2 for permission to make a game in the likeness of DoTA. That was that.

Just so you all know Guinsoo did not retire...

He's actually a developer of Heroes of Newerth, the game you guys are playing.

This week, Los Angeles-based Riot Games announced its first title, League of Legends, planned for a PC release next year.

It's not the first game to advertise its similarities to DOTA. Gas Powered Games' Demigod is in the same vein, although the connection is more straightforward with League of Legends: original DOTA designer Steve "Guinsoo" Feek is driving the design.
