Pre kazdeho kto pozna DOTU- (DOTA = Defense of the Ancients) - mapu na Warcraft 3 - toho tato new gameska iste potesi
Developer start-up Riot Games has been laboring for a good long while on League of Legends: Clash of Fates, and it shows in their faces. They aren't tired or weathered -- they're excited to finally have a chance to show someone, anyone, what they've been working on.
Their creation is at once both familiar and new. Players of the popular WarCraft 3 mod Defense of the Ancients will immediately draw comparisons to League of Legends. Just like in DOTA, players control a single hero, leveling him up through the course of play in a world whose art looks strikingly similar to WarCraft's visual style. The similarities shouldn't come off as too surprising, though, since Riot Games' development staff includes some of the team that helped develop DOTA Allstars, the most popular version of Defense of the Ancients.
And while it all seems incredibly similar to the popular Warcraft 3 mod, Riot Games CEO Brandon J. Beck and president Marc Merrill come off as sincere in their effort to create something that stands on its own. The characters in League of Legends aren't your standard fantasy fare and include some pretty far-out, tongue-in-cheek avatars like yeti riders and a little girl who can use her teddy bear to summon a monster to aid her in battle. A number of characters are supposed to be revealed as the game nears its 2009 release date.
But beyond different characters, Riot Games wants League of Legends to set itself apart in its ability to galvanize its future community in ways that similar games cannot. While players will be able to play the game offline, this is clearly a game that's made for multiplayer. Players will get to create a "Summoner" on the game's website, allowing them to build up an online persona. The team's hope is that this will not only give players more reason to come back -- as leveling your Summoner will eventually give the player abilities to help them out in matches -- but will also discourage the negative effects of anonymity. After all, it's always easier to be a jerk when you know there's no tangible cost or that your name can be easily changed.
nie je to sice take hardcore ako dota aspon co sa itemov tyka ale zato maju jednotky viac skillov, + nove prvky ako treba upgradovat citadelu, moznost kupit si pomocne jednotky. Ak toto dopadne podobne budem spokojny. DOTA je prakticky len jedna mapa, klobuk pred nou dole je to velmi dobre vymyslena a odladena mapa, ale nieco nove uvitam, niesom ako ti co hraju Xrokov CS 1.6 a vsetkymi ostatnymi FPS opovrhuju.
