Nov 11, 2013THANKS VOLVO for your work!
We are all love you!
And hope you will bring joy more often!!
DOTA 2 is the best in the MOBA class.
Long live VOLVO!!! -
Nov 8, 2013just to be fair, i have to change the rating from 0 to 10, valve had finally communicate with us, they will ship diretide in the next update, although it is a bit late. Yet, it is a great improvement that valve started to listen to the community.
-
Nov 8, 2013After a week of silence, you've finally answered, took you long enough but I guess better late than ever. However, you should REALLY hire someone in charge of community here because you're seriously lacking in that department.

Nov 28, 2013This game improved so much since it was released on the beta. There are over 90 heroes to choose from currently and the gamplay is as intence and as rewarding as DOTA 1. I know alot of people will be hesitant to try it at first but there has been a new tutorial system implemented in DOTA 2 and I think it will help new comers. I know some people who play LOL might bash in this game, but bot…

Nov 9, 2013BEST GAME EVER,playing this game for over 7 years (including Dota 1).
This game has future of eSport,mby you will become new eSport star if you give this game a try and earn milion dolars or you if nothing will have fun every day like me for next 7 years and more. -
Nov 8, 2013Dota 2 is an utterly brilliant PvP game that is ultra-hard and requires friends for the best experience. There is a steep learning curve and a lot of characters to get used to but the game is really worth it.
-
Nov 8, 2013After neglecting the community they apologized and im fine with that! Welcome back Valve!!! WE ACCEPT YOUR HATS! Im honestly just happy that they responded to the community

Nov 8, 2013thx Valve for saving Dota2 it was doomed if it would have stayed in warcraft 3 time was destroying dota 1 everyday thx for introducing those amazing graphics and introducing cosmetics really made this game shine matchmaking is good it's really fun to play this game been there since the begining an probably will stay there till the end
-
Nov 9, 2013The only F2P, not pay-to-win game on the market. Valve knows how to apologise, Heroes are free, game is great. Steep learning curve but very satisfying. Just hope that they keep it up

Nov 9, 2013You guys listened to the community. Thank you for that. Its not about Diretide, its about the fact that the community is the sole reason Dota 2 is where it is now, we love hats, but we need you to care about us.

Nov 8, 2013Very good game. Quite addictive and mentally rewarding if you take the time to learn it. Playing with friends will help make the experience a lot better.

Nov 8, 2013It's a great game. Volvo has appologized for the lack of diretide. It a shame that some people felt the need to spam diretide comments, but it's a great game with rich mechanics, and great gameplay. But community suck hard.

Nov 8, 2013Never been so addicted to a game before! Weekly updates, balanced, and a economy if you like to trade. Basically this game has everything you can ask for in a Moba.
-
Nov 8, 2013Valve responded and explained their Diretide mistake, fixing my score up to 10/10. They even said a huge update is on the way! I have to say I'm very happy about it and i'm sure other DotA 2 players are too. As someone who switched to Dota 2 from league of legends, I must say this game is just so much better and I love it. I'm hoping for some new heores such as Terrorblade to be released.

Nov 8, 2013One of the best, most difficult and truly competitive games I've ever played. It is free and doesn't have any pay-to-win, all heroes are free, the only paid content are cosmetical items that DO NOT change gameplay. Thx Volvo.

Nov 10, 2013Excellent game, with much more sophisticated mechanics than LoL.There's 2 things about Dota 2 it's completely free and it's developed by VALVe. If that's not enough for you to try this game I don't know what is. The only thing that you have to spend in order to play this game is time. That's right, Dota 2 is not like most other games and that's because it's very complex, so be patient
-

Nov 9, 2013Dota is a great, strategically diverse game with a big reliance on teamwork. It contains original, diverse heroes with many different play styles. Different game modes (from the competitive captains mode and Team Matchmaking to all-out fun like all random or mid only) promote you to try different things and have fun.
The game is only maximum fun when you play with people you know, so brin -
Nov 8, 2013I withdraw what I said before. Valve has some communication issues with Dota community, but it seems that times are changing and we'll see some different actions regarding Valve. Game is great; Bugs are present in every single game ever so it's not a big deal. The problem is the community.

Nov 9, 2013Best free to play game in a true sense. There's no need to buy new heroes, no Pay-to-win issue at all. The game is absolutely fantastic especially after Valve has been putting focus on server stability, balance and the most importantly, community. ggwp

Nov 8, 2013A good, high-quality MOBA with varied but mostly balanced characters, built in spectating, item drops, and events. Although Valve doesn't always communicate the best, they care about the community still. GAVE DIRETIDE

Nov 8, 2013Love the game! It is one of the most popular and most enjoyable free to play game coming of the steam library! definitely worth a try. It is good not only because it is a great game but because the company behind it, manage it so well. Even when, their customers show utmost immaturity.
-
Nov 9, 2013Dota2 is a very exciting, team based, rpg-like Game with the amazing attribute, that every match you play is different. The last user-submitted scores were pretty low due to missing updates from Valve, which they apologized for. Nevertheless is Dota2 really good and has a huge competitive scene.

Nov 8, 2013no other game is more enjoyable to learn and master than Dota2. while it is an incredibly difficult game to jump into, you feel extremely rewarded once you get the basic mechanics down, followed by advanced mechanics, and building up long term experience.
thanks for diretide btw. -
Nov 8, 2013Best game ever, after a lot of time put into the game i can only say that valve care for there community even if it's not 100% clear but they do care. Would recommend this game to anyone who is looking for a new game to play
-
Nov 8, 2013The current overall negative user review of Dota 2 is a result of entitled children downvoting the game over the omission of an "annual" free game mode. None of this petty behavior detracts from the gem that is Dota 2. Read the critics reviews and go try it for yourself.
-
Nov 8, 2013VOLVO GAVE US DIRETIDE! Honestly, a lot of people have been extremely upset at the lack of communication between the Devs and the Community but I think they'd made up for it with their last blog post!
-
Nov 8, 2013Not only is this game amazing, addicting, and free, but did I mention it's also amazing, addicting, and free? The variety of heroes over a hundred means every game is entirely different. From where you can lane 'em, how you build 'em, your skills and item choices, there is almost an infinite amount possibilities. Second, this game is addicting. I only have around 500 hours in and... yeah…

Aug 15, 2017And this dichotomy is perhaps the best descriptor I can attach to Dota 2. It is frequently a game which occupies two opposite spaces simultaneously. It is the best game. It is also the worst game. No game has ever made me as miserable as Dota 2 has. But no game has made me feel so consistently rewarded for my time, and as consistently, wonderfully connected to the friends I play it with.
