[Vobent]

Two new pictures showing Roshan, and whom I'm guessing to be Shadow Priest.

Edit: Oh, and my friend read on the playdota forums that these pics are somthing like 4 months old, so alot of this stuff has already changed. Obviously no proof, but we'll find out in a few days.

I can confirm those screenshots are a bit old but the UI is similar, the buttons in the client I saw were larger as if they were expecting you to click them. Not sure if it was preferences of the people playing but yeah, like buttons were the size of the portrait.

The teams are going to be The Radiant, and The Dire.

Fucking lol @ the 1v1 & the tweet. (Maliken would just ban Idejder if he lost.)

Also, here's some Dota 2 system requirements. Didn't look for them in this thread, but here.

Spoiler: show

DotA 2 Minimum System Requirements:

OS: Windows® 7 / Vista / Vista64 / XP
Processor: Pentium 4 3.0GHz
Memory: 1 GB for XP / 2GB for Vista
Graphics: DirectX 9 compatible video card with 128 MB, Shader model 2.0. ATI X800, NVidia 6600 or better
Hard Drive: At least 2.5 GB of free space
Sound: DirectX 9.0c compatible sound card

DotA 2 Recommended System Requirements:

OS: Windows® 7 / Vista / Vista64 / XP
Processor: Intel core 2 duo 2.4GHz
Memory: 1 GB for XP / 2GB for Vista
Graphics: DirectX 9 compatible video card with Shader model 3.0. NVidia 7600, ATI X1600 or better
Hard Drive: At least 2.5 GB of free space
Sound: DirectX 9.0c compatible sound card

According to one of the members of DotA 2 staff, in case you can run Alien Swarm, you will be able to run DotA 2 since both games require same System specs to be played.

Also, I wonder what the announcer will sound like, will be hard to top HoNs. Will probably be the same person who did the TF2 announces.

OH MY GOD

[Insanecyclone]

Throwing money at the screen and it isn't taking it!

[Lebzile]

I hnng so hard I shit myself.

Also, that sounds so close to the same guy who did the voice for the Heavy.

[Vandole]

can't wait to rape scrubs with pudge in all of his trolly glory.

[Vobent]

Man, axe & Dragon Knight both look like beasts in that trailer

Woulda had it up first but my computer froze after watching it. Instead, have the options menu.

[Maguspk]

Noob Axe totally got baited in that viddy and ate Earthshaker Fissure.

The worst part about all of this is that after Tournament we will be dry for however long until release/beta most likely.

You know what would be fucking glorious though? If after the tournament they were like....sup http://dota2.com/download ...I'd shit myself...

[Blackice]

Sweet mother of rad @ the trailer. How many days/hours/minutes/seconds until this comes out again?

[Rivero]

Open beta starts somewhere around Sept I believe.

[izembo]

was disappointed by the trailer, what was so good about it?

[tol]

nostalgia probably, a lot of us started on DOTA so seeing updated version of some of those heroes is great :E Elder dragon formmmmmm

[Vandole]

...its fucking dota

[Maguspk]

[Tyrath]

With izembo on this lol. Without my nostalgia goggles because I've never played DOTA, I don't see why everyone is orgasming about the trailer. It was really generic.

I am, however, looking forward to giving the game a try once open beta starts since I've heard so much about it.
