DotA 2 is Announced! Coming in 2011 - DotA-Blog

DotA 2 is Announced! Coming in 2011



Finally, after so many speculation and rumors, the DotA 2 is now officially announced! As the Game Informer mentioned, the game will be released next year on both PC and Mac platform.



Looking back a bit, IceFrog (the current DotA map developer on Warcraft III) is hired by Valve in 2009. Since then, many people starts wondering what kind of game they are working on. And as the curtain revealed, it appears they are bringing the DotA map into a full game based on the Valve's Source engine. That's mean many of the game limitation on Warcraft III is lifted. And with that, some new features are also introduced on the DotA 2.

Let's check it out!

In-Game Voice Chat

Ventrilo is no longer needed. Communication is the vital factor on the teamwork and typing sometime is not an option because our hand is already full controling the hero. The DotA 2 will cover that and have an integrated voice chat feature which will allow you to communicate during game easily.


Leaver AI Replacement

Awesome features. You will have less problem with the leaver. The disconnected players hero will be automatically taken control by an AI bots. However, don't get too excited and you decide to played it on a single-player game. Erik Johnson (the Project Leader) says, "Our goal with the AI is just that their experience isn't destroyed just because one person couldn't finish the game."

Cool Heroes Voice

The current DotA map is using the Warcraft III sound set which originally created for the Warcraft III campaign, not for DotA. The DotA 2 will have the heroes voice fit properly with the game. Amusing lines from heroes will coming out when you deny the enemy team last hits on creeps. Heroes who have related stories will trade quips when nearby. Maybe you will see Lina Inverse and Rylai teasing each other :p

Matchmaking System

Valve is using it's traditional Steamworks for the skill based matchmaking which will let you play comfortably.


In-Game Rewards

Valve is introducing a new system which will rewards you for participating in community forums.

Coaching System

Veteran players will be able to login as a coach and teach the newbies. The coach can see beginner's screen and can get private voice chat during the game. Still no words about how the trainer and trainee will be matched.


Wow, lots of amusing stuff there. I hope Valve can meet with our expectation. But i'm pretty disappointed with the fact that there's no screenshots of the game itself :( But hey, why ruin the surprise? Tell us what you think about DotA 2 on the comment box guys :)

    ReplyDelete
  15. Best part is they'll have some type of cinematic trailer or something for sure. Even though I'm quite sure they won't and will never, I wish they'd put in HoN original heroes.

  21. In game voice = HON already has.

    This is a very cool idea but has to be a lot better than HON (Heroes of Newerth, Dota Clone) for me to move over. How much more can you add to Dota?

    ReplyDelete
  22. well. i think its still an RPG style just like the DOTA on WC3.

    i'd be damned if they turn this into a 1st person shooter. lol


    well a lot of DOTA addicts may surely feel awkward when they see the screens of DOTA 2 because the character's looks are not the same as before (WC3 models).

    Remove alchemist? wanna play? il show you man... sigh... every hero has its own strengths and weaknesses... it really depends on the player.. alchemist is one of the best hero setters... sigh.. every hero in dota deserves to be in dota 2...

    ReplyDelete
  35. Patience is the key :)) i'm excited about DOTA 2.. will there be a new heroes as well? i hope its not like LoL that we need to pay to be able to play other / new heroes... >,<.. Goodluck on VALVE and ICEFORG! give us the best RPG ever! more power!

  44. this will be the end for DotA. unless icefrog continues to be in the forefront of developing DotA

    ReplyDelete
  45. DotA 2 will not be for free so this will definitely alienate 80% of players who really like playing DotA

    ReplyDelete
  46. Well this is a big NEWS in DotAlism and it will make a revolution in the DotA world =) btw Hail TO GOD of DotA, ICE FROG!!!! DotA will live untill the end of WORLD!!! i can sure that xD GG!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  51. cool! i wanna play this game!

    ReplyDelete
  52. hey, please make this game free to download and play..
    i want to see new improvements in this game...

    ReplyDelete
  53. i smell bug in this game

    ReplyDelete
  54. seems like lol to me for now :( but it might be something much better, only the money will be the problem 'cause buying Warcraft III is one thing, but pay every month is much harder for some persons :(

    ReplyDelete
  55. i think this game is for limited players only..like hon

    ReplyDelete
  56. ^^
    You mean limited to people who arent cheap? If you dont like it stick to WC3 Dota that you probably pirated anyways and that wont get updated. Its not gonna be a subscription game like WoW like that idiot above you thinks. It will be no more than HoN if it isnt free, which I doubt it will be.

    ReplyDelete
  57. ^It surely wouldn't be free? Who in the right mind would make a game where everything's free? And by the looks of it the game will use steam and steamcloud, so any pirated games would not be allowed.

    ReplyDelete
  58. ^Sorry, the first sentence wasn't supposed to be a question. Lol, my mistake. It was supposed to be "It surely wouldn't be free."

    ReplyDelete
  59. FUCK YOU ALL! CREATE DOTA THAT IS ALL ABOUT SEX

    ReplyDelete
  60. ^haha dota > sex all the time. lol

    ReplyDelete
  61. can you post pix of terrorblade and magina?? ahahahah!!!!

  62. woah! it's amazing...

    ReplyDelete
  63. DOTA 2 RULE

    ReplyDelete
  64. AND ALSO , THERE'S NO USE FOR COMMENTS HERE . NOBODY IN VALVE IS GONNA SEE THIS :)

    ReplyDelete
  65. DotA is NOT FREE. so why would this game be free? Obviously it shouldn't be running a $60 price tag but honestly free??

    ReplyDelete
  66. AHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

    ReplyDelete
  67. Lol, blood seeker's helm looks like a feather coated football helm, BS jock FTW

    ReplyDelete
  68. lol this will be launch in 2012 (valve time)....and we all know that 2012 will be the end of the world. nyahahaha

    ReplyDelete
  69. this gonna b like HON..i would like to say..its same..i prefer the original than this dota 2...

    ReplyDelete
  70. is it gonna be like HON??? how would the payment goes? by credit card?

    and how will you gonna pay it? online also after downloading?

    ReplyDelete
  71. Yeah.... release more pictures!!
    Kick HON ASS !!

    ReplyDelete
  72. For sure it would be available for digital download through steam. Payment would likely use credit cards, or cash transfer.

    ReplyDelete
  73. i bet it would charge money

    ReplyDelete
  74. gonna play this for one whole year . . . before the end of the world >:D

    ReplyDelete
  75. oh may gosh .. yes!! .. i will play forever

    ReplyDelete
  76. Why are people getting upset you have to pay for it. These people spend months making games refining it and putting their all into it to make it something worth supporting. You think Valve is going to invest crazy money into something and don't expect some sort of return. We've been essentially asking ICEfrog to work for free all these years and he has... its time to support the dude. Stop crying.

    ReplyDelete
  77. dont make it too expensive la... think about student n kid.. coz many dota player right now is one of them... i dont how to speak better in english.. f???.. maybe i should open a dictionary..

    ReplyDelete
  78. MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRR!!!!!
    MAKE IT F2P MMO!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  79. i hope one day that DOTA will have movie in theaters.. :)

    ReplyDelete
  80. ha

    huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhh

    moga moga ada

    ReplyDelete
  81. of coz u guys gonna pay.... they going to use steam (matchmaking system) are for sure its going to detect if u using original version or pirate version... unless it is free to play like HoN did to several region...

    ReplyDelete
  82. goodbye HON, hello DOTA2!!

  86. this game should be free to playyyyyyy............

    ReplyDelete
  87. seriously if they made the mouse scroll a switch option to zoom from birds eye to 1st person shooter, this game would never get boring/ heaps epic as.

    ReplyDelete
  88. ^We can probably play in first person view if the camera view would be like Alien Swarm's.

    ReplyDelete
  89. lulz epic game

    and why do all these dota players demand dota 2 to be free? u have to pay for wc3 and ft to play dota right..

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  92. DAMN!!! WHY burn Lina's HAIR!!??? CHANGED THAT!

    ReplyDelete
  93. I don't like the new version of Lina. she's literally hot because of the fire on her hair. But I'm looking forward to play this game.

    ReplyDelete
  94. I was retire form palying DotA online,(my internet connection got cut by my fater...because im to busy playing DotA and forgot to study :)) and just play Ai map with my brother...now,since i am a college student.i will be back playing DotA 2!! can't wait till 2011 >.<

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  97. Dota2? fail again!

    ReplyDelete
  98. why does everyone hate HON just because it is not called dota too ? I mean, icefrog did help to produce HON, along with S2. LoL was also by gunisoo, the original creator of dota.

    ReplyDelete
  99. arrrggh............ come out quickly before i get married and have kid.......... by the way is there any pcture of mortred???? please......

    ReplyDelete
  100. i dont think it.ll be that wanted. i think DotA is the best game!

    ReplyDelete
  101. cant wait!!!!!!!!!!!
    by the way, pls create bigger map so we could have more fun

    ReplyDelete
  102. is this game like first person ?

    ReplyDelete
  103. I think that this is redundant...already exist HoN...Dota 2 or the Dota of Starcraft isn't an original idea...but good luck...if someone plays HoN, surely knows that it is a nice remake of Warcraft's DoTa.

    ReplyDelete
  104. DotA 2 will be a blast! i like the new features of the leaver system, its better than nothing, i hate HoN! its graphics is nice. but the system is too complicated. I hope DotA 2 system will be like DotA except for new features and all! Awesome! Nice job Icefrog!!!

    ReplyDelete
  105. it's so cool . . .

    ReplyDelete
  106. all we know that DOTA was played by using warcraft mod, in DOTA 2, how is gonna be? its another mod game versiion?

    ReplyDelete
  107. Its supposed to be a remake but HON is not entirely a remake. Dota will be the EXACT same map, same heroes, incredibly graphics... and best of all. ICEFROG the reason y Dota got as big as it did. Is at the helm. That is the most important part. Its not a mod its a full game. Its OWN game.

    ReplyDelete
  108. Why does drow look so plain? :/

    ReplyDelete
  109. OMG plz stop asking if it is free , YOU CHEAP C*NTS

    ReplyDelete
  110. I Love that this has happened! BUT.... Ive been enjoying HoN, and has so many new heros coming. i will be sad to leave it. Because i just know Dota 2 will kick ASSSSS!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  111. ZZ hope icefrog after doing DOTA 2 still can Do DOTA 1 In warIII for the poor people @@@

    ReplyDelete
  112. stop saying HoN crap plz, that is piece of shit, people who play hon is such a fucking retard, only noobs play HoN, but for DotA, its completely different, why? experience urself with these two game, u will know..

    ReplyDelete
  113. i hope blizzard sues

    ReplyDelete
  114. There is no way that Blizzard can sue anyone. DotA is a mod and Blizzard does not own DotA. Main reason people still play the normal Warcraft is to have a few minutes of break when they are not playing DotA. Blizzard owes Icefrog for keeping their game still alive.

    ReplyDelete
  115. It will not be free. You can count on that.

    ReplyDelete
  116. There is only one problem I see so far...the leaver being replaced by AI. I know they are trying to improve the game, but lets face it...AI is easily exploitable. A team can feed off them very easily. No matter how smart the AI is they cannot predict a human team. DotA and HoN are great and they can both learn from each other. I will own both (DotA 2 + HoN) and play both. It doesn't have to be a fanboy situation like PS3 vs Xbox 360. Just have fun.

    ReplyDelete
  117. man i cant wait ;), but i thnik there will be option ADD AI after he leave or not ;)

    ReplyDelete
  118. you are stupid to believe that this game will be free. so fail

    ReplyDelete
  119. What will be the system requirements?

    ReplyDelete
  120. I bet u men this is gonnna be smth new in game world !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  125. Damn this is going to be awesome i wish there is a screenshot... ill love to see alchemist and Chaos knight(my fav heroes) cant wait till 2011.... one time payment only plsss.... and dont mess anything up i want this thing to kill LOL and HON

    ReplyDelete
  126. Valve released Alien Swarm for free... i wouldn't be surprised if they did the same for Dota. If they do put a price on it, it wont be very expensive anyway, just look at the price tag on existing games made by valve

    ReplyDelete
  127. I don't think it is a good news...the DotA spirit is will end up soon and started by a new game since it has been take a part by other company...i hope all will still suport DotA but not dota 2 if u still love DotA.

    ReplyDelete
  128. so....lina will be bald in this coming version...too sad.. :(

    o and look!! bloodseeker has a blades right now..!! i know bloodseeker uses his claws to kill but i think valve gave bloodseeker a makeover..goodjob valve..!

    ReplyDelete
  129. dropped players heroes will be controlled by AI's? u gotta be kidding me, thats going to suck bigtime, i'd rather play 4v5 then have a AI on my team. Thats going to look good on competitions when someone lags out, depending on a AI to go with some teamplay.

    ReplyDelete
  130. whoo dota 2. i will totally pay for it even how expensive it is. its like my life and i think my parents will allow me because my father and my sisters and brothers play DOTA :))im so lucky.

    ReplyDelete
  131. WTF DotA 2 YOU ARE INSANE !!! THAT WILL NOT BE THE SAME DOTA ..THAT WILL BE SHIT ! WE DONT NEED SOME 1 TO TEACH US HOW TO PLAY DotA .. WHO DONT KNOW TO PLAY,SHOULD PLAY AL MAPS...!! IM AGAINS DOTA 2 U WILL RUNE THE GAME!!!

    ReplyDelete
  132. AND TEACH THE AI TO TEAM PLAY! :)

    ReplyDelete
  133. You don't need to wait untill 2011, DotA 2 already exists as HoN!

    ReplyDelete
  134. HEROES OF NEWERTH FOREVER

    ReplyDelete
  135. Wth is wrong with you people, Hon, LoL, and DotA 2 can all live together, I'm certainly gonna keep playing LoL for a very long time after DotA 2 comes out. I might even play HoN every now and then. Obviously though DotA is where it's at, so DotA 2 will be nice to have unless they are stupid and release it as a pay over time and/or $50 initial charge. XP

    ReplyDelete
  136. You know what valve needs to port next, Battleships. That'd be absolutely sick! 8D

  137. lina should have a red hair

  143. Do we have to pay??????????? I really don't want to pay... USD in my country is a very big amount and my parents would not allow me to pay... Is it free???

    ReplyDelete
  144. im looking forward to see a instant ladder system, so we can discriminate newbies from experienced players based on their ranking and not their names

    ReplyDelete
  145. 1st... hope this has a lan game because if were playing on a shop we should just have lan game.. many players wont play non lan game plays. Some players wants to test their skills against other friends through team play or 1v1.. it's not good to mention this but we all know that players do bet money for winning on team game so being on only online game and a Non-lan game would surely reduce your players worldwide.

    2nd... it should have a better short cut key for this game.. all of the heroes should have one constant short cut key from 1st up to the last skill.. and with the activatble items as well, you know what I mean..

    3rd... no more to change logs.. i don't have to be so updated when I play not knowing that these hero skills has changes or at least mnimize it.. too much is no good.

    4th... keep one constant map no more to those lousy versions if u want to change map versions for new patch at lest make it a one click.. like click update then it's okay. (why do we have to download maps then we need a version switcher to be donwloaded as well, etc.. such a hassle) its lazy playing games with many bugs so we have to download the new map that has new patch but is not sure if it doesn't have bugs? why should we play games that we have would worry if it has bugs? fix it on cbt then when its on obt there should be no prob.. it's worth the wait for the best non toxic lan/online game. if you do all these i bet even all hon players would play this game instead.

    ReplyDelete
  146. @"stop saying HoN crap plz, that is piece of shit, people who play hon is such a fucking retard, only noobs play HoN, but for DotA, its completely different, why? experience urself with these two game, u will know.."@

    what kind of a stupid bastard are you saying like that?can you make any better games?if not, please respect others work.Maybe you suck at HON and that's why you hate it so much. I bet i can dominate you in HoN with 100 - 0 kills dude

    ReplyDelete
  147. Seriously,do we hv to pay?

    ReplyDelete

  159. omg the leaver ai replacement idea sucks, i prefer that they just leave and we'll have the items to ourselves, rather than an incompetent ai playing for us

    ReplyDelete
  160. I see alot people comment here, so I have some questions. How this thing will work? Will It be Standalone game, like HoN and all that, or will be there some programs again like Garena etc. And can some explain me this thing with steam? I don't get that...My english is not the best. Someone leave a comment, or add me on MSN/facebook so that we can talk about it. Ive been playing for 6 years. Thank you

  169. I hope it isn't like HoN.... I hope we don't have to purchase accounts... I'm poor. Can't I just buy the game and then Play in LAN in our neighborhood... SO hopefully, it wouldn't be too heavily detailed that would require heavy hardware! I'm just poor but I'm still owning in DotA. And I'm looking forward to owning in DotA2.. :P Merry Christmas!
