Why are Blizz devs so out of touch to make a moba w/o items and xp

>If the engine/gameplay is good, the moba from it will be great and everyone will play it.

They will apply the same rules as SC2 mods had, so don't expect anything great.

Ditch out those rules, and just buy the mods which are good/make an official mod.
If Blizz weren't so lazy jews, they could have had all the moba market for themselves, and LoL/Dota2 would have never existed.

Honestly, just some news saying that they still have some dev team and are working on the game instead of going on maintenance mode. Still with they went with the dota 2 model of fewer but powerful spells instead of the spammy and weaker lol model.

I thought they already released the third expansion :^)

Then it's not much different from League or DOTA, two games that already have large fanbases.

The game itself isn't the issue. It just came out too late. It was released in 2015, when the MOBA craze was already at its tail end. Now it's too late to catch up, with other games like battle royales and autochess being the new biggest games. LoL and DOTA already have their fans. Making HOTS into those games wouldn't bring them over. It would just make it look like Blizzard was copycatting Valve.

With this kind of logic, dota 2 would have never been a thing.
Also you don't make a moba w/o item, that's like half of the interest of the fucking game : To get kills so you can buy fucking crazy items, to do crazy stuff, to kill again the enemy.
There are other way to make something different w/o destroying the core of the gameplay.
It's like making super mario w/o the jump button.

Male/Female outfit swaps. Stop being fucking bigots blizzard dont you support trans rights?

Remove all the OW characters, bring back the old cash shop with no lootboxes

also this

well actually the game itself is part of the problem my dude.

A lot of people actually gave HoTs a chance when it relaunched and absolutely hated playing it in ranked because

1. It's nearly impossible to carry a team
2. you can literally lose the game in the draft
3. Hero balance is abysmal and always has been

The banrates are ridiculous on the four highest banned heroes in the game, over 50 percent of games have the same four heroes banned and it's been that way for over three years.

Don't forget map balance being utter shit and them having to remake or remove most of the maps from ranked because of how much one comp can dominate a map.

She's op

sad

>With this kind of logic, dota 2 would have never been a thing.
Completely different circumstance. DOTA2 runs on an entirely different, updated engine than the one from WC3 and added quality of life features from the technical end. Plus even a toaster can run it, while the SC2 engine might be a little bit heavier. Why would anyone who's already playing DOTA2 now move over to HOTS if it's the same game?

Their best bet was to make a game that was different enough from the rest. Again, trying to appeal to DOTA2 autists is self-defeating. They don't want to move to a new game
>Also you don't make a moba w/o item, that's like half of the interest of the fucking game : To get kills so you can buy fucking crazy items, to do crazy stuff, to kill again the enemy.
Talents fill that role, something DOTA2 later adopted.

Again, the issue wasn't the gameplay. LoL is dogshit but it's still the most popular MOBA because it was in the right place at the right time.

I still play every now and again, only done one quest line of the mech thing.
I just get thrown off because of one player on my team is always afk "lol who cares we already lost"

Give me a map without gimmicks.

Make it turn based

Actually it was worst for valve : Dota 2 had garbage character design and barely any brand recognition.
I know lot of people, including myself who were eager to finally play the Blizzard moba.
And SC2 engine being garbage is their fault anyway.
>Why would anyone who's already playing DOTA2 now move over to HOTS if it's the same game?
Learn to read dumbass, i never said that they had to c/c the exact same gameplay. However if they did that alone, they probably would have won.
>Talents fill that role
No they don't fucking brainlet. Talents are based on xp and really don't add much to the gameplay. It's like new spells.

>Again, the issue wasn't the gameplay.
Yes, it was. Especially when you wanna do "esport" thing. No carry, 0 fucking individual reward for a freaking video game.
Items, heroes were what saved Wc3.

1. wrong
2. also wrong
3. name a moba with perfect balance. not even DOTA has perfect balance.

>over 50 percent of games have the same four heroes banned and it's been that way for over three years

That's because of the playerbase, not necessarily always on Blizzard's end. They've tuned heroes like Genji relentlessly since he was released. As well as Anub'arak, just not in the way he needs to be tuned.

Obviously not what you posted

>LoL is dogshit but it's still the most popular MOBA
Because the gameplay isn't dogshit. It's still miles ahead of hots.
yea it was in the right place, considering that Blizzard didn't care about mobas and could have literally stopped LoL from being a thing.

>Learn to read dumbass, i never said that they had to c/c the exact same gameplay. However if they did that alone, they probably would have won.
If they add items but don't remove any of the other shit DOTA autists will go "wtf this isn't DOTA" and will not play it anyway. If it's the same game, they'll not play it anyway.
>No they don't fucking brainlet. Talents are based on xp and really don't add much to the gameplay. It's like new spells.
>new spells don't effect gameplay
so a valla built around q is the same as a valla built around aa
>Yes, it was. Especially when you wanna do "esport" thing. No carry, 0 fucking individual reward for a freaking video game.
carries (heroes that need to be propped up by other heroes to be good) exist in HOTS. individual reward exists because when every team member preforms well as an individual the team performs well.

Pointing out extraneous circumstances like some DOTA carries being able to singlehandedly turn a game opens it to the same criticism of a single player bringing down the entire team. All MOBAs are like this, and that's why it's not a good genre to begin with.

Source : your ass. Also, dota playerbase isn't the only one in the world. But yea if your new game is literally removing things and not adding any depth to the gameplay there's a good chance it will fail.
>so a valla built around q is the same as a valla built around aa
No shit sherlock. It just doesn't add anything to the gameplay itself. Chosing the most popular build requires 0 skill. It's completely different than items, where 90% of the items are like new abilities, where you need to get gold to get them, where you need to make quick decisions (go for cheap items, or save for the big ones), etc.
>individual reward exists because when every team member preforms well as an individual the team performs well.
retard alert.

Rework it into a fighting game

That's actually true. Moba is a popular genre like it or not. What LoL did was just make a casual version of dota.
Hots is so bad that they said "hey let's do the same shit and make LoL even more casual".

Lower que times. When I played ~6 months ago the que times were going upwards of 8mins for diamond NA. Whats the point in ranking up if you can't even find a game?

The game is dead, dude. You're not going to get new or returning players when Blizzard basically put it on maintenance mode.

Is is true? I heard that you couldn't even use a hotkey to control Rexxar's bear.
It shows how much Blizz devs became bad.

And they had this opportunity since 2007.
But the fact is that at that time, NOTHING should threaten WoW. They even tried to make a moba inside WoW iirc.

Do you still not know what map you're going to play on until you've already locked in a hero and loaded in?
Having a game whose depth is based on heroes having different strengths in relation to different objective types but not letting you actually play to that is the most insane shit I can think of.
Here is a core interaction with the largest amount of depth of ANY mechanic in the game. Should we let players interact with it? LOL NO.

Last time I got muted for 6 months for calling out trannies, whores and fags (LET ME HEAL YOU, I'M A GIRL, I'M HELPING! Support is HARD!), so I wish Blizzard would stop being so fucking SJW and mongoloid it would help me to go back and play this trash ass game. Also, I'm better than everyone here in Yea Forums , I was top 5 in the ladder, so don't even quote me, filthy scrubs. I hope neo Blizzard bankrupt and these fags commit suicide.

Gee, it's a real mystery why you were silenced.

You can totally control Misha.
What that other user meant like treant from Malfurions rooting skill talent, Zagaras zerg creatures and Azmodongs demons. Those you cannot micro.

A game genre that survived SOLELY because of the diehard tryhards long past when it should have died makes it really clear who you should be trying to appeal to with your game...at least aim for both, but they only went casual and newbie friendly sealing the fate of the game forever.

The game is as fine as ever. The community consists of the worst braindead scum ever, and Blizzard defended them longs enough, while shitting on the real players, until all serious folk left, and a hollow shell full of moronic casuals remained. Kinda like with all their other franchises, except this one is F2P and not P2W, so there is no money to be made outta discrimination towards the real gamers

I dropped it because it had some stuttering issues trying to run in my toaster. I don't have this problem with LoL (except with the awful launcher). Would probably play it if I had a better rig or if it was optimized to run on shitte PCs.

I always thought the game was too draft/map depended sometimes. Overall the game is really fun but retarded teammates easily throw games

Misha is one of the few you can control but the way it works is fucking retarded since you can't directly select the bear as a standalone unit, you just give it move/attack commands (and it was tweaked, it was way worse on release). Also Samuro requires a fucking ult talent to be able to control his illusions, its so stupid.

I already came back for the mecha event and playing it almost daily.

Better yet, go play Starcraft instead.

So you're either lying or you spent an ungodly amount of time on a game you hate. Your life is sad.

Chink opinion has no value. I played 1st Dota, then i played 2nd Dota. It started turning into shit a few years after release, so i switched to HotS. LoL was always trash, D2 barely even resembles itself, other Mobas like HoN were never really alive to begin with. HotS was the last fun game in the genre, and Blizzard murdered it

the micro is the real problem. there's no reason for this game to be so simple when lol exists. you're simply not impressing anyone coming from a game with runes and activatable items with most of this roster. all the map, individuality, and last hitting type of arguments are relatively meaningless next to the game feeling simple to hundreds of millions of people you should be trying to get to play your game.

Why do people get so serious about Brawls? They're supposed to be short and you do them for the chest, nothing more.

It does faggot, they have no excuse for the shit "micro" system they have in the game if it's made in the same engine as SC2. It's actually worse since they deliberately made it shit to pander to casual brainlets like you, this sole reason embodies everything that's wrong with the game.

This doesn't sound like something you would play for very long, as a change of pace sure, but not something you would sink hours and hours in. They should bring back that coop brawl, Escape from Braxis or something, but they won't.

they need to fix the queue times. i don't care if that means bronze players get matched with GMs regularly, last time i queued up for ranked i was in q for 15 minutes before i left

It's just that everyone is playing fucking lol because they were the first to go all-in on the genre

The co-op modes were pretty fun. A dedicated hero-defense mode could have been pretty great.

But ActiBlizz decided this game wasn't worth it and instead shifted focus towards selecting cheap soulless Asian mobile clone-developers for their main IPs.

What a shity excuse. Dota 2 came very late as well.
No it's not fine. Removing xp and items are like removing xp and items in a MMO, in a RPG, like removing guns in counter strike.

pornography, lots and lots of highly detailed SFM futanari animations specifically made to be arousing, aka pornography

give me porn or fuck off

They kept listening to all the people complaining about OP this and OP that and kept nerfing everything slowly until nothing does anything anymore. I honestly feel like none of my abilities do anything worthwhile and it's becomes OW 2.0 where only ults matter.

The teamfighting in this game used to be so fun, the game was actually ABOUT teamfighting. I remember when it first came out you'd just brawl with the other team. Now it's like every other moba, everyone go get XP, most important thing is XP, until your ults are up then you can go exchange one-shot ult combos and nothing else matters.

I legit thought they had a good things going with HOTS until they panicked and started trying to be like League.

I do kind of wonder what would happen if there was a decent gameplay game with honest to god porn in it like you suggest here.

LoL and HotS are both dota for casuals
Dota 2 is literally Dota 2 and even got the Heroes of Newerth crowd eventually

Right, smartiepants. Do you wanna recall the fact that right around 2013, the year for MOBA was still rising even further and beyond? Let's not mention the fact that Dota 2 was actually in Beta state for a good while, (Remember the Dota 2 beta keys moment) and it was one of the most desired games.
2015 was the year where things were flattening some with the MOBA genre, with League of Legends being the titan, and Dota 2 being the one just behind. Both of those had and have good competition with each other, and HOTS couldn't compete with anyone because that spot was already claimed.

I fucking loved playing Cho gall. It's such a fun waste of time. And in the right comp was even good. But getting the right comp was nigh impossible

hots is barely a moba. The whole point of a moba is to micro only one hero since warcraft 3 gameplay was too awfull as a RTS.
The team is just here because 1 hero vs 1 hero would suck.

It didn't 'fail' and Morhaime is a fucking hack who consistently fucked up and has never understood the gaming industry. His 'leadership' has managed to crash one of the most promising gaming developers in the world into the gutter, an amazing achievement all things considered.

It wasn't a world-conquering success, so they scrapped it. Meanwhile the other games just keep on trucking and maintain their playerbase. Just running a continuous source of decent revenue that feeds their legacy and advertises all their IPs is somehow a failure-mode to the leadership at Blizzard.

> brainlets seriously talking about how something can arrive "too late" almost like entertainment is a competition

How brainwashed those drones must be, to speak about games from a business standpoint, when the real question is about quality and fun. If the product is good - it never fails. If product is shit for w\e reason - without a gigantic marketing campaign it's doomed. HotS failed the same way any other Blizz game like WoW failed - started strong, and lost all the fans because of retarded decisions from the developer. The only difference is that fair F2P doesn't make as much as subscription based skinner boxes

What did you do to make HoTS leave you?

I don't know. Figured I'd reinstall and see what's new, but it refused to recognize my battlenet account for some reason.

To be honest, costs of development in Cali is ridiculously expensive, plus marketing, server upkeep, championships worth a million to organize, all those trailers, countless corporate expenses and all kinds of time consuming bureaucracy is probably the reason why they scrapped it. I doubt HotS is even a little bit profitable, they probably operate it at a loss exactly because of advertisement benefit

Overall, for a money hungry corporation, anything that cannot be shown to investors as a bragging point, usually isn't worth the time

A good game

>championships worth a million to organize
DOTA has a great spin on this with player support deciding the prize pool. A great incentive to support the event and get some in-game goodies in the way by buying the pass. Blizzard of course did not engage a similar concept, nor did it learn a single thing from how Valve tackled the Internationals.

When are they just going to make a porn game with the girls from Overwatch? People only care about Overwatch for the porn.

This can't be right, with Abby it would just feel like a three hero team.

I've rarely seen him played, but the few times I recall him being in the opposing team just smashing everyone and getting away with ludicrously wild plays.

That's what makes it so great, user. Three caballeros, taking on the bigger force and winning.

I'm playing it right now. It's literally the best moba available right now

Why are you playing a dead game with no future when there are alive alternatives?

Because HoTS is more fun. I play to have fun. I'm not some "esports athlete" that needs to appeal to the lowest common denominator for money

Remove all heroes based on characters Blizzard created in the past eleven years.

>come back
laughingsluts.gif

Windows xp or native linux support. but even then I'll find a reason to not come back

It's not just about esports, it's about developers supporting their product and improving it, creating new content to engage the players and improving the enjoyment you get out of the game.
The only thing the HOTS team will do in a year is pull the plug.

Blizzard to give me a tall and just ever so slightly overweight futa girl

Zagara?

Being able to control summons and good controls really make a game for me. LOL is easily the worst game of the category with too many flaws. Despite the things i hate about dota, they have all the RTS controls. HOTS2, being made in the SC2 engine, had immense potential. Control groups and left side minimap were in sc2 but removed in hots2. Yet, the only things that hots2 does well is from sc2. camera hotkeys, good damage point, good pathing/turning, and using 'shift' to queue commands were reasons why i loved hots2.
more importantly, i believe the direction of the game went the wrong way. damage seemed to power creep faster than healing/shielding. talents that used to be item equivalents shared by multiple heroes are now gone. i didnt like the design of the new heroes or reworked ones. to answer OP, i would only play hots2 if blizzard released it on sc2 and allowed other mapmakers to maintain the game.

The closest we've seen to that is probably DoA 5/6. It's not explicit obviously, but the general reaction to it makes it pretty obvious to tell what would happen.

Here's the original black hand image. I haven't posted it in a long time.

DoA Moba you say..... I'm curious I admit.

Oo! even better, a Senran Kagura Moba! I could see that being made.

this made me think of something
theres versions of the DBZ all sagas map in broodwar with ki attacks. see: youtube.com/watch?v=EPeX94qt-OM
the control feels similar to DOTA games. someone needs to take the concept behind those maps and turn it into a team battle map. could even integrate saga elements like freeza as map objectives like hots

I can picture the gameplay already. Everyone already has their ninja they like best, so assign them some standard MOBA roles and abilities and toss em in. Defend your dojo from the opponents team etc. Only when your ninja "dies" she just ends up naked, and has to run back to the dojo for new clothes. Meaning the further you are from your base the longer your respawn time

Come back? I never even played it.

Why is that dark-skinned fellow stealing that object?

So... this is the state of competitive HotS...

I already play it super casually, the map variety, different objectives, and playerbase that aren't human trash keeps me playing

I tried getting into Dota 2 but got smurfs constantly wrecking my beginner level games. And I google it, and apparently this is common and you just have to put up with it. Yeah nah.

More thicc waifus would at least get me to download your game client in a moment of desperation to use it as a 3d model viewer.

The game feels like shit when you play without a boost, I hate that what takes 50 games without a boost would only take 5 with a boost.

I had no idea that 250% of 20 was 500 and that 200% of 3 bars was 10+.

It's unironically the only modern Blizzard game where having fun is theoretically possible now. I'm not sure what else it needs.

Appealing to a casual audience wasn't a bad idea since that was a mostly untapped market for Mobas, whole reason I played it at least.

>duck lips
barffff

Hots is the easiest moba to get free shit in.

except it's not even fun on a casual level since they made the game so much more team centric with every update, meaning your impact on a personal level is reduced and you're at the mercy of a single non cooperative retard/noob/afker

I know where you are coming from but it is supposed to BE a team game and not one where 1 person feeds the hyper carry and you no longer get to play the game because he's mega fed.

>What would it take to make you come back HotS?
I would take me getting into HotS, leaving it then comming back.

Now, to get me into it, it would take... I don't know, it doesn't interest me nearly enough to resear what exactly it is about...

>No future.
This is a stupid mindset, fuck part of the reason I left League is because the stuff I currently liked was constantly being taken away from me and replaced with something that didn't understand what made the original good. When you aren't staking your life on it, a good present with no future is better than a mediocre present with a possibly good future. Even if they pulled the plug on HotS right now, that isn't going to make LoL or DotA into games that I have fun playing. I'll just play more single player games, which funnily enough, die the moment you fucking beat them. Fuck mate, are you missing out on good retro games because they're "dead" in your limp-wristed hype-chasing secondary worldview?

>playing any MOBA ever
No thanks I don't have shit taste in games

Is this SmarterEveryday in the beige jacket on the right?

I'm just mad at Blizzard for dropping the MOBA I liked and fucking up some of my favorite series. I don't want to support them in any way shape or form.
Leaves me DOTA but I can't really get into it, I hate babysitting lane minions.

Didn't Diablo have one? Then again yeah other characters should have them. Well only the males, while the females could just become a beloved male character like make the OC Hammer into General Duke

MOAR CHARACTERS
as in
A character every 2 months
More warcraft chars
More independent chars, like Orphea
Go nuts

>All female character team beats all male character team

What now?

Really go nuts with the characters
If blizzard did that I think it would be noticable
Idk, HOTS 3.0

Now that the esports cancer has been removed at least try some more interesting/experimental hero designs. More abathur/chogall style characters that are wild departures from every other hero. It felt like they went out of their way to homogenize the cast in the last year or so and it blows.

Stop banning my account because of dumb shit. "Can someone take the camps?" and "we need 5 people to contest this" shouldn't be banworthy shit.

remove OW heros they add nothing and only detract from the game and in a major way none the less

if that makes you barf you might be gay

i've played off and on since the alpha, its ok, I heard that they were pretty much abandoning the game though, is that true?

if they kill Ion and the entire wow team I will play hots

Depends how you interpret "moving a majority of the team to other projects and reducing the rate of new content"

what it they added items
removed the talent shit
had one 3 lane map
remove their stupid recruit jungle creeps thing
no shared xp
no shit objectives
hire me blizz, just saved your game right here

What if they also made all the heroes free?

oh shit, I forgot. That too

>It's completely different than items
Where you look up the most popular build on the internet and copy that? At least HoTS offers more immediately comprehensive customization with talents rather than having to look at item spreadsheets.

If you play QM sure, ranked tells you the map first.

So Yea Forums,

can YOU even imagine it?

you cant make a candy crush game for mouthbreathers and expect it to last. What these mongoloids at blizzard dont understand is that mobile games have insane player turnover, and because they are so simple to get into they have constant flow of new players. You cant do that shit with an mmo, moba or an fps because these require a lasting community. Its actually baffling how they have all these marketers and psychologists on board and cant figure out such simple things lmao. Joke company

I get the feeling you're omitting certain words from what you supposedly said.

It wouldn't take a lot honestly, I enjoyed it when I played. I don't like lootboxes though, that keeps me away.

I'll come back the week before it shuts down to remind myself why it sucked in the first place.

bring back the dev team and focus on fun and unique mechanics rather than e-sports trash. No other assfaggots has a murky or a abathur. Fully marry into the "Blizzard smash bros idea" if e-sports forms let it just happen naturally

I'll start playing HotS again when I start getting home too drunk to play Dota again. Hopefully never.

Just started playing a few days ago. How fucking long does it take to unlock heroes, I got to pick one from the start (Jaina) then got a random Uther in a box. He's not fun at all. I really don't want to spam 1 hero for 50+ games just to unlock a hero I might not even like.

Remove overwatch.

>only play hots to get the officer D.Va skin in overwatch
>don't even play overwatch anymore
Fuck Blizzard

isn't the option to instantly get like 15 heroes at once still available ? They introduced it last year at some point i think

I am not interested in HotS.
If you want, you could make a petting / skinship game featuring HotS's characters, and I'd buy that.
But remember to include Chronormu in the petting game. No Chromie No Buy.

characters that arent made strictly for porn

I would like it to be more like masters x masters
