Recently, DOTA2 underwent a huge update. It may make some players feel like they have entered a new game. This version has been updated to 7.9G (it may vary between different clients). What exactly is the update that makes it a new game?
This update brings old players back to the Novice Village, mainly due to the earth-shaking changes in the DOTA2 map. I believe all old players know that the DOTA2 map has been continuously modified from the DOTA1 map since the beginning. The changes to the 7.33 map this time are the biggest changes in more than ten years.
It is normal for DOTA2's configuration to require high performance, and the opening animation is also a feast for the eyes of players. The dazzling effects may be better experienced on your high-end PC.
After entering the game interface, there are a large number of update logs that can be viewed. Simply convenient and fast. Now take a look at the big updates.
Judging from the overall modification, the maps of Radiant and Dire are more symmetrical than before. The new map will have two roshans, so there will also be two roshan homes. Roshan moved from the previous central river channel to the opposite corner of the map. The roshans who are performing official duties said they have finally "come ashore", but they will bear the "lash" x2 from the players.
Many new elements have been introduced on the map, such as twin doors, used for mutual teleportation in the "Roshan House".
Another example is the lotus pond, which can restore life and magic points. It's a bit like the "Moon Well" in Warcraft, and players who have played construction games should be familiar with it.
The Rubik's Cube of Pain and the Wand of White Whore were born here!
The map has become larger, requiring more "eye positions". At this point, observers join in.
Door of Escape - Gate of the Guardian. What only you know - "Open Sesame"!
Talisman of Wisdom, get experience Talisman for free - it may affect the situation!
Players who like shield talisman, tower rushing talisman, and tower-crossing kills may especially like it.
In addition to major map changes, there are also many changes to heroes, items, and wild monsters. The hero type also introduces a fourth type of attributes. New methods are also introduced for player matchmaking.
I've been criticized for saying that the game has changed, but it means it hasn't changed at all. How big is this change? Players can experience it for themselves. No matter how much others say, it is better to experience it for yourself.
