Re: All Pick?
I hope people take a good hard look at the post above me, and the attitude that says they'd rather a dead map than a popular one.

I believe EotA is not centered around the hero. If you put in -ap or -ar it will gradually become more and more like DotA. If you want -ar or -ap, play a DotA game. And I say what I think is best for EotA, If you hate me for it you can go to hell.

Re: All Pick?
I think the thing that suprises me the most about this is the strong opposition rather then a general "I won't be playing that mode so i don't care".

Re: All Pick?
In all honesty, the map is pretty much dead other than a small group that plays it. I know that pool and I have tried to start up a game numerous times that were like ghost towns after a few minutes, noone joins and we just figure to give up. I am not sure if a new mode will do anything for it, but I would rather not have all pick in EotA.

Well, you may just say "it's just a hosting option," but players may become customed to it, and we could very well end up with the standard of join beggers (someone begging the host to host another map or beg for features) and leave if you don't set it to that. And this isn't just a throw out feature, I've seen similar with many other maps/games, a good example was hosting 1.10 about two weeks after 1.11 came out.
But all in all, it's not my map, so change until your heart is content, thankfully I got plenty of other things to enjoy. ^_^ .v

I'll try to be civilized... Did I say it's in a complete state of disrepair yet? No... Would I play if it was? No, I'd focus more on the other things I enjoy. Would I play it if it wasn't in a state of disrepair? Yes. Now, let's think logically, and go back to the first question and answer. And keep looping this until you get it.

I would not want a pizza with carrots and gravy, nor would I want a stew with bacon and pineapple. They just don't taste right unless they have the proper ingredients.

I dunno, I think you might be on to something with that bacon and pineapple stew...

Re: All Pick?
Just to be clear - I like it very much. I think it's a good idea because it could add diversity to the game and how it's played. It might be unbalanced and have to be removed, but honestly, does that not say more about general game balance than about balance of a certain mode?DarnYak wrote:I think the thing that suprises me the most about this is the strong opposition rather then a general "I won't be playing that mode so i don't care".

Re: All Pick?
As mentioned above it would add some diversity, this i wont like to pla ap all the time.
But it could offer some interest from time to time, just to play around, i mean come on its a fun map after all.
Maybe some food diversity would make it more attractive

Re: All Pick?
What? No, as clever as that sounds; It doesn't. The only thing is says about the general game balance is that it can't handle an unplanned drastic change of rules. That'd be like changing the support beams off a building from metal to candy at the last second; and honestly, does that not say more about the building's design than about the validity of candy as a construction material?SeasonsOfLove wrote: It might be unbalanced and have to be removed, but honestly, does that not say more about general game balance than about balance of a certain mode?

Re: All Pick?
I think it just says that heroes in EotA are not self-contained units. There will be balance issues, but people using that game mode should just recognize and accept that. As long as it's not the default game mode, I don't care what other people want to do. (And as long as regular-game heroes aren't changed too drastically to balance all-pick)

Re: All Pick?
I agree completely with this; but especially the part about how people should recognize that it won't be completely balanced. Im not sure a random bnet player will realize that its not the way the game was meant to be played and then they might go around saying how imbalanced the map is.Kibiyama wrote:There will be balance issues, but people using that game mode should just recognize and accept that.
