I am sure it will come out this year, as they told at the first place. Waiting until 2012 would be.. disaster..

LOL. pun. haha. but anyway, yeah. 2012 would be crazy.

World will end with DotA2's publishing..

hopefully not. I still want to play it before I die.

Then we gotta hurry, world will end 22nd of Dec, 2012 ^^

well, its them who has to hurry. Valve that is.

I think the game should be playable for both, just let it have a very low graphics configuration and a very very high one. I play DotA thanks to its LOWEST configuration, LOL. my laptop bought new is 200$ right now, but mine has 7 years old, so u get the idea xD however im getting a new one soon

I am sure u will need a new one for DotA 2

But u still have some time.

yep, i already know which one im getting, its an Asus with i7 and a not bad graph card now i just need to buy it and wait for someone to bring it to my country (shipping taxes would be expensive)
And im also getting a Razer Deaathadder ^^ i cant imagine the difference from this crappy pc to that Asus

That's like changing from going on foot to somewhere to brand new jeep.. And hell yeah, intel i7 rules. But it will be pretty expensive.

i7 isn't really needed for Dota, probably not for Dora2 either. An i5 is a bit cheaper and will suffice perfectly The extra-cores are just overkill, the Dota2 engine will most likely not be able to use them all.

He is just investing money for DotA 3

hope my dual core 1,8 + 2gb ddr2 + 512mb gforce 8400 still can run dota2 perfectly at least in mid configuration......

@ qassamzed

i hope so...^^

coz almost heavy new game released in 2010 i can't play it .
just can run in low setting
but low fps in mid-high setting ....including SC2,blackops

DotA 2 shouldn't be so demanding for computers because they'll lose lot of players. I think it will br in range with DotA 1, little better.

games you mentioned (sc2, black ops) were and are pointed to become next gen mp legendary games. there will always be their "beforz" - sc 1 or cod 2 for players who are not prepared for new games. gameplay of those games can only be improved by fascinating graphic things, but for game like dota, gameplay is everything. and it definetly stands before awesome graphic details.

all "pro" dota gamers told me same thing > i only want similar exp and gameplay which will be ruined with too many special effects. birds on the skies? bats in the scourge base? who cares? i am here for kills. hmm, know what? add more blood.

yeah......gameplay is everything for dota thats why many people still play dota in wc3

i found the laptop with i7 and it was cheaper than the one with i5 =D

then it's stolen..

it is on amazon, so not, it is not. Btw, there is no BIG difference between both processors

Maybe is difference between sth else...

As every1 knows, now days the Graphics is 1 of the most important parts of a game. For example Black ops.Now think of Minecraft, now think of Blacks ops... What graphics do you prefer? What they should try to do is make it a Wide range of graphics settings from "The P.C's which run on coal to the P.C's which can play Black ops in full Graphics"

..just like SC player go to SC2...
Gameplay is the MOST important and graphic also VERY important
the problem is like u say : can dota2 make a wide range option in graphic...


for sys req maybe can use HON as comparisson (dota2 should be higher i think)

maybe like this :
2++ GHZ processor
VGA better than > Gforce 5 or 6 (256-512mb)
min 1 GB RAM

That is pretty much how low i think the minimum graphics req will go... Im guessing you could make it so that you use low end pc even lower then what you said there and then OC it ... get some cooling (Fan R250 for good 1) then your all set to play 1 or 2 games of DotA before your PC overheats.
