Hero rotation. But lets be honest, if you play around every night since they into hero rotation thingy, you'd have gathered enough silver to already own every of your favourite heroes.
*
yea also worth mentioning that we have quests now and with it getting silver is pretty easy (75-100 silver/quest). the quests isnt hard at all and it gave me the chance to try out heroes i never want to use before and reward it. ive only played for about 3-4 weeks i think and i ady bought about 5 heroes. some heroes are as cheap as 90 silver and at most only costs 650 silver. if u want to grind silver play a lot of midwars while completing quests. they are faster and less stress.

What is badly needed in GHoN is more restrictive punishments to the offenders, Im sick and tired playing with people who just farm for KDR and then idle+afk  - not for a winning percentage. *rants*
*
i guess hon needs to put less emphasis on stats and restrict viewing of other people's detailed records. its a good system but in implementation its horrid. in other mobas u dont find such nonsense as kdr farming or selling everyting and plant 100 wards when losing just to look good on records and allowing you to belittle others with bad stats. u can punish people all day long but in the end of the day what will it achieve? people fleeing to other mobas and trolls still create new accounts.

Hey everyone. I'm pretty happy that these region discussions are still around. I've been playing HoN since close beta, I have a verified account, for which I paid 30 dollars, before Garena HoN came along. And I must sadly accept that using hotspot shield is not stable, and I can almost never join a game. I was wondering if there still is a way to play on the International server. I'm from Armenia by the way. Love the game. Cheers
*
Same here. Played since beta, paid 30 bucks and spent quite a lot of time collecting alts. I've given up on using hotspot shield and basically waved goodbye to my int account and start playing ghon. Armenia is not using the main client? Got gayrena there as well?

Yup. Garena here as well. Which sucks. I hate Garena and their "community"

Meh community is mostly the same. Got ragers in int hon, ragers and pinoys in sea dota2 as well as ghon. Thats why I like to play midwars. A lot less time waiting to respawn hence a lot less ragers.

a lot. almost all game i play in hon is midwars since it came out. if big map i prefer play dota2 than caldavar. midwars is really cool. really quick and full of action. bonus points for minimizing ragers.

The main issue is that we don't have to feel left out. And that's what S2 has done.
*
yeah i feel you. i too hate the regional fragmentation in hon. i think it hurts the total sum of playerbase since each server have a very small fraction of players and newcomers might get turned off thinking its a sucky dead game because of that. but S2 being the way they are and keep making deal with 3rd party companies i guess its not going to change anytime soon. dunno if theres anything we can do about it. WHATCHU GON' DO BOUT IT? laugh.gif

hey guys, i just moved back to Hon from Dota 2 due to midwars and pinoys in Dota2.

Hey wb. Lol aside of the pinoys i prefer a lot of item and heroes from hon. Dota heroes feel bland and unnecessarily complex for some.not to mention the slowmo gameplay and turn rate. But i really love huskar and oracle combo shit is so fukin broken

Indeed Dota game play alittle small. Anyone here tried LoL? seems like the player base is the biggest among the 3(Dota2, HoN,LoL).
*
not me. lol is popular since it's more casual than the others as well as the huge amount of money that was poured in marketing and improving the game. for me im not interested since its too different from dota ady and im not a big fan of influencing the game from factors outside of the game itself such as the rune system. need to buy hero is the least i can tolerate since stupid gayrena still wants to implement it and no other option available. i tried strife with a system almost similar to rune in lol which is the pets and i completely hate it.

guess LoL is really easy to play? since my friend played Dota2 he feeds when he move to LoL owning the players there.
But ok at least now they have the quest easy to earn silvers to buy heroes.
*
arguably easier. ofc it depends on the skill of your opponent but since theres no creep/hero deny, no gold loss on death, stronger tower etc its like easy mode dota by default. i think even the spell damage and disables have less impact and duration compared to hon or dota so mistakes are less punishing. i never played lol tho and i could be wrong.

Friends and Fellow Players,

My name is Brad “Konran” Bower and I am the Studio Director for Frostburn Studios. I’m ecstatic to be able to announce to you today, on this 5th HoNiversary, that Heroes of Newerth (HoN) has been acquired by Garena. Garena has been the publisher of HoN in Southeast Asia and the Commonwealth of Independent States for the past 4 years and have passionately believed in and backed the potential of the game. Garena truly loves HoN, so much so that along with the acquisition of HoN, Garena also acquired the entire HoN development team and established a brand-new studio in the US—Frostburn Studios. Here at Frostburn, we are committed to growing and strengthening our team and have brought in dedicated top talent from the industry to better serve your needs.

Following this acquisition, the Frostburn team plans on improving the way HoN operates. We have learned many lessons over the past 5 years and are looking to leverage this experience to springboard into the future. Driven by our commitment to transparency, integrity, and respect, we will be working closely with the community to shape HoN into the game we all want to be playing and providing you with insight into our decisions. The way we see it, HoN is a game developed for gamers by gamers. This means your opinions matter just as much as ours and we want to be enhancing the game for you and with you. It is my goal for the studio to have an open line of communication with the community—finding out what features you would like us to incorporate and using our experience to innovate and execute on those features.

Since June 2014, the Frostburn team has been operating autonomously under Garena while legalities were handled ahead of our announcement. During this time, we shifted our focus to you, our community. You wanted custom maps, so we brought you Sol’s Theater (including the outstanding Capture the Flag map - thanks again Kawaiiiii and HyperXewl!). You wanted game stability, and today we ushered in HoN’s biggest-ever optimization patch that promises approximately 20% improvement which will improve our servers and reduce the amount of time it takes to load the game by 50%. You wanted eSports and, with your help, we delivered the biggest prize pool in HoN’s history for HoN Tour Season 3 with over $700,000 in total cash given out worldwide during the season. This culminated in the finals where you joined 46,000 other viewers across all streams to watch the tournament live, setting another record for HoN! And we are now just one month away from HoN’s long-awaited return to DreamHack.

In addition to these community requests, we’ve also brought you: new modes, with fan-favorite Blitz Mode and The Grimm Hunt; a series of new hero releases; increased art quality; the Leaver Strike System to combat toxicity; and the War Effort, HoN’s new quest system, which provides you with even more rewards for doing what you already love (and hopefully injecting some flavor into your hero and map picks in the process).

Over the past year, our devotion to HoN has only grown stronger and we are committed to transforming HoN in 2015 and beyond. Going forward, you can expect even more balance patches of a similar caliber to the one we released today. Our design and art teams are dedicated to enhancing the overall gaming experience through these efforts. You can also expect us to, at long last, take some time to improve the stability and quality of HoN. We know this is something the community has been asking for (as have our programmers!) and we heard you. Additionally, we will be watching the success and interest of CTF to determine if you would like us to continue with the creation of new maps and modes. We are prepared to continue delivering these, so please let us know your feedback and show us if you are enjoying it or not! As Frostburn, we really want to hear from you guys to find out what you would like us to focus on for the game in the coming years. We know this game is far from perfect, so it’s time for us to address that to maximize your gaming pleasure.

Let’s take this 5th HoNiversary to celebrate the massive success HoN has already achieved and the bright future it will have. I can frankly say this is the most excited I have been for HoN since I joined the team back in 2009. At Frostburn Studios, we have the opportunity and resources to change the status quo, which is exactly what the team strives to do. I want to thank all of you for devoting your time to this game. We couldn’t do it without you and we promise to do our utmost to make HoN a compelling experience that you will remember for a lifetime!

I look forward to connecting with each and every one of you in the coming years!

Sincerely,

Brad

aah. it's harder a bit oso when i first started. need about a week to get used to.

man i still miss bramble, cthulhuphant, circe, dark lady, tarot, , empath, harkons, genjuro etc.

HoN got some really neat concepts. i'd honestly will still be playing if S2games didn't screw over paying players with their region restriction bullcrap.

tbh, each one on his own. i dont want to downgrade tongue.gif

anyway, bramble, tarot, etc. these heroes still rocking solid. now you can play MY and SG region only. for me, doesnt matter the region, most important is the quality of the game which very rare now. u know angrytestie still playing this game in twitch.  laugh.gif
*
haha but D2 nowadays really bring radical new changes. Something i used to love HoN for back when D2 stagnates and progresses super slowly from D1.

last time prefer playing US or JPN server. not much lag and the players are overall much better than SEA players.

that's ofc until they kaw2 enforce the region ban and i can no longer use proxy to bypass the restriction.

got a lot of skins and perks in my PAID Int account and when forced to play SEA server not only have to play without all of my hard-earned stuff, even hero need to buy.

that got me so mad. even until today hero pool still limited right?
