There was so much more freedom back then to do cool, unique, and often very dumb things.

KanyeTSheever•

I don't know why they got rid of them. What's stopping both talents and stats existing at the same time?

For some heroes it made sense to skill stats, so it wasn't a useless feature or anything like that.

CaptureEverything•

confusing for noobs I think was the reasoning

3
_ObliteratorFuck cancer•

As a noob, I take offence to your statement. It wouldn't have been that confusing.

2
KanyeTSheever•

Maybe a lot of newbies would skill stats because they sounded more beneficial, but skilling skills are the better choice in 99% of cases.

But even then, that's what guides are for. I don't really think that was the reason.

inb4 a comment saying that the guild was a useless feature that was harmlessly added to the game

The guilds could have been much more... Back then, only the officers could only invite members and it was hard to gain any traction unless the owner and officers were actively inviting people. However, it was still functional enough to host inhouse games relatively easily. If the guilds were to be back, I suggest:

  • Open or closed guild where the officers can choose to let people invite themselves in or through member invites only
  • Linked to steamgroup
  • Guild benefits or events for incentives to join (such as guild-oriented compendium quest, guild party bonuses?)
  • Easier to schedule inhouses with benefits (way to post announcements, downloadable past guild inhouse games, guild lobby visible for all members to join from the main screen)
  • Easier to organize parties (guild parties visible for all guild members to join, mmr disclosed among guild members without being friends)

And definitely make a separate tab where the chat box is actually bigger and not squished under all the ads.

21
TanKer-Cosmeoh... my blink dagger•

I think Guilds would also really boost some gamemodes on the Arcade tab, Since a lot of the issues with that is find 2 parties to play.

TFW still no working Castle Fight in any game ever. Probably the best map to play with friends in WC3, but goddamn did the engine shit itself with it.

Idaret•

just use discord

8
hexperimentOP•

We do use discord but it doesn't completely replace the usefulness of the guild.

  • Not everyone uses discord for whatever reason

  • Much easier to party/inhouse directly through the dota2 client rather than sharing steam profiles from a third party program

16
davorzdralosheever•

That's almost on the level of stupid as telling people to just play LoL.

0†
Idaret•

Dude, there is nothing wrong with playing lol or using discord.

7
davorzdralosheever•

The point was that when people ask for improvement in one thing, the solution is not to recommend something completely unrelated.

crescentroon•

The one legitimate point here is inhouse. However it might be easier for volvo to make something to connect a steam group or a discord to an inhouse matchmaker, rather than re-invent all of discord or steam groups again.

Guild is a nice thing that made old MMORPG popular. The whole socialize aspect of it create a unique community that i was thrilled for dota2.

Too bad at SelfOrganizingCo, bonuses are what matter. Shiny new features earn you massive bonus payouts. Maintenance work is not valued and will get you eventually fired in a purge. To bump your purge immunity you must work on Shiny New Features before bonus/firing season.
