Personally, I'd prefer Dota 2 graphic. It looks more stable and beautiful (Valve engine) compared to HoN, although its a bit cartoonish.

For gameplay, I prefer HoN, because I haven't tried Dota 2 yet. HoN is fast paced and thats why I love it.

Right now, I think I'd go for HoN.

When Dota 2 is released, maybe Dota 2 will win cause I really like the bots mode for training.

- Graphics (Source Engine though dated and run only on DX9 but can be updated frequently can still produce beautiful graphics at the highest level and they recently introduced Cloth Animation)

- Aesthetics (Looks good, feels good, during clash you wont get confused easily unlike in HoN thought its subjected to each individual preferences)

- Support (With a Large Company Valve in charge of Dota 2 as well as Eul and Icefrog on the team the game would last as long as DotA or maybe even longer)

- Steam (dont have to layan ah bengs on gayrena and can play on internationally levels and meet pros and assholes worldwide)

Anything that involves those pirates from gayrena = auto fail in my book.

Even without gayrena, Dota 2 still takes the cake.

no poll?

Dota 2 will also have LAN mode. What makes you think ah bengs wont start playing in gayrena and if they got the real game, start screwing up the teamwork that has so well been developed in dota 2? Dota 1 no one cares about teamwork, everyone is having "i pick what i want" mentality. Dota 2 people do care. But since they announced will have LAN mode. gg. The only hope is the game is not too cheap for bengs to buy and screw up MM. Pirated Dota 2 at Gayrena is like a sure thing already if LAN mode is out.

i dunoe how to make poll sory ><

QFT.

Gayrena destroys anything good it touches.

FAT chance HoN's going to have LAN.

DotA 2 FTW.

DotA 2 because:
I have beta access
The gameplay is much more fluid
Less idiots on EU servers. Have fun with your bengs, at least the Russians don't lag here and play like gods.

If it's F2P then their stupidity is confirmed, why pirate something you can get for free

If it's B2P then they will also lose out on the weekly updates as well as the in game store (bengs love flashy costumes)

Besides, one does not simply come in and wreck MP in Valve Game due to VAC, extensive background check for those using dupes, and Dota 2 could use the upcoming banning players integrated in L4D2 already

I mean ever since TF2 went free to play sure bunch of newbs start popping like rabbits but few weeks and months later they got better and the F2P attitude is not as bad as i expected, most just kept quiet but sure got some bad apples

Still have some elitist now and then but fewer, playing with LYN kaki makes the game more fun/relaxing
and 80% we'll get Russians that go laggggggggggg

Gayarena should have open beta test on DOTA 2 since the TF2 and Counter strike is on Gayarena.

thing is, it should not be there

Gayrena is literally promoting open piracy, its a wonder Valve, Blizzard and many other Devs are not suing them. One theory is that they see gayrena as a potential place to access a wider potential consumer base

anyway, Dota 2 would be on Steam, Valve never outsourced their games to other platforms/companies for a region unlike S2 Games/Riot Games with HoN and LoL

Problem with Valve is that the server they provide is limited. As you can see, they give out beta key depend on their server capacity.
Unlike HON and LOL which gives free open beta test around the world before they actually start with the real thing, Valve cant do that cause it will crash their server.
People who wanted DOTA2 beta test is having a hard time. So the answer is Gayarena. You might not like it but there are a lot of DOTArds out there havent received the beta key from Valve and they will do anything to get it.

Dont worry man, as of the moment, Valve are increasing server capacity worldwide and Dota 2 is currently in Closed Beta not Open Beta. It will be another few months before open Beta. Oh and Valve makes lots of monies everyday so dont worry about the server part, time will tell. As of the moment, they have servers in Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong and Shanghai for the Asian player base.

why do u guys hate gayrena when its a succes with LoL. People buy from gayrena to upgrade their experience when playin LoL.

DOTA? If Valve want to operate it Like TF2, gayrena is the way for easier payment options.

And btw... when will lowyat stop banning gayrena...
