DotA 6.68 Preview #1 Aggression - New Gold Earning System!

DotA 6.68 New Gold System Agression
Finally, IceFrog has revealed something about the upcoming DotA 6.68. Today, he has introduced something different and revolutionary. It's a new gold system which will be implemented in the upcoming version. The concept is very simple and player friendly but it also forces us to play carefully and makes the game more competitive without much saying, check out the New Gold System in DotA 6.68 Preview #1 Aggression.

The New Gold System is based on 2 types of Gold:

Reliable Gold - Any bounty you get from hero kills or from the extra "aoe kill gold" bonus (feature from few patches ago) is added to your Reliable Gold pool.
Unreliable Gold - It is everything else (creep kills, neutrals, etc).

Dying can only take away gold from your Unreliable Gold pool and not from your Reliable Gold. Buying items uses up your Unreliable Gold first before using your Reliable Gold.

An example: You have 910 total gold (500 Unreliable, 410 Reliable). If you buy Boots of Speed, you'll have 410 total gold left (0 Unreliable, 410 Reliable). However, if you bought Chainmail, you would have 360 Reliable Gold left.
The process is seamless to the user, you won't have to do anything extra to make it work. Your total gold is still displayed in the same place. Your Reliable Gold is displayed in your scoreboard title.

This is a new experimental idea that may be adjusted and tweaked over time depending on feedback and results after it is released. As always, let me know anything you want to see in future versions.


So guys, Do you like the idea of New Gold System in Dota Allstars 6.68? Share your thoughts and reviews via comments!

First blood!

It means, If I die it will cut my unreliable gold not Reliable. Right?

Anonymous said...

I dunno, It can make ganking carrys unreliable somtimes, if they buy items for all their unreliable gold, they wont lose anything (only the exp and gold they would get from staying in the lane).

nodas80 said...

Completely useless

MaxiZ said...

It will make DotA much more competitive to the point that may change the Metagame... Anyway I like it, and let's see what happens

Best wishes !

basicly.. means this..

ganker.. with a lot of kills.. will have a lot of gold (reliable) and dying will not reduce his money.. so ppl who are just ganking can just take more risks..

the game will hopefully be more gank-oriented now..

no more chinese 50min farm.. with 300 cs..

i think this is going to change the game in a way we don't know

Anonymous said...

this is bullshit. let me tell you why.
why is this need to the player to have 2 "sources" of gold ? What does this help for ? If the reliable gold and unreliable gold total is the same as now is, then what in Earth would we need this for ? Just to confuse players. And be careful, new players will be so fucked up, they will never learn DOTA as easily as they can learn it now.
If somebody smarter than me can tell me WHAT do we need it for, then go ahead please with all respect.
And by the way, this is NOT an AMAZING new style of play or bullshit. I guess IceFrog is getting tired of creating new heroes, so now he has these idiotic thoughts like this one.

How's the distribution from the total gold to the reliable and unreliable? If you bought the boots of speed, what will happen then? And if you buy something, it will just deduct it. It sucks!

Anonymous said...

I dont get the point of this new gold system . .

What if you have 300 gold (150 reliable,150 unreliable)
then u die . .gold will cut 200 gold . .if u hav 150 unreliable gold then what happen to the the 50 gold?does it have to cut from reliable also?

Anonymous said...

What does it mean by "aoe kill bonus" though?

Anonymous said...

Not a fan, this will only help to encourage ganking since gold gained that way will be "safe", while actually pushing a lane will be less desirable since all gold earned that way is subject to being lost.

The gold system is fine as it is, no reason to favor one type of gold gain over another. If you do nothing but gank it wont matter if you die a lot because your gold will never be taken from you. But if you push/carry a lane you are at risk of losing money, even more so since skilless ganking will be rewarded and skilled pushing will be punished.

and unreliable are the same
because as the example said
if you buy over the price
the reliable money well it will be so down

I like you ICEFROG
but your System sucks

Anonymous said...

Well guys..This idea is has two sides like a coin :) In the one side is the greed for gold and the fear of ganging in order not to die and lose money that was for items. This side of the coin also affects the game because it becomes more boring and team work really does not exist. This mode will help players not to afraid of ganging and losing money...On the other side, in my opinion, a player who focuses on ganging and generally uses KILLs as an gold earning method will not be able to be stopped as their gold would not be reduced in any ways , so they would not be stopped from buying new items...Let's spin the coin :P

Anonymous said...

this system is confusing... like what happens if you die and you don't have any unreliable gold? do you lose your reliable gold instead? if not... it's actually much easier to earn gold, if you actually could kill a hero.

Anonymous said...

noooooooooooob gamerz!!!! not gonna agree with that because the purpose OF KILLING THE HERO IS TO PREVENT IT FROM EARNING THE GOLD SO THAT THE OPPONENT CANNOT BUY THE RECIPE OR ITEM IT NEEDS TO WON... BUT IF THAT RELIABLE COIN CONTINUES THE WHOLE DOTA GAMERS WILL JUST FIND DOTA AS EASY AS A BABY'S GAME... IT SHOULD NOT BE LIKE THAT... IF THAT WOULD HAPPEN THE GAME WOULD JUST DEPEND ON THE HERO U WERE USING... FOR MORE ISSUE VISIT ME AT MY fb BILLY_ALFRED_00@Y.C

Anonymous said...

Your gonna make it more confusing!!!

What if the reliable gold and unreliable gold can buy both items. But the reliable gold can buy items with added "+" stats.

Example:
Item: Chain Mail
Price: 550
Stats: +5 Armor

Unreliable gold: +5 Armor
Reliable gold: +10 Armor

Anonymous said...

Why are you all idiots spamming? You totally missunderstood the meaning of this thing. This will force more ganking, and more aggresive play. When you die you wont lose any of the money you've earned by kills, this way gankers and supporters will get fast boots, more wards and more support for the carryes. It's a great concept, and i totally give this a T-Up. Good Job IceFrog

Anonymous said...

bad idea, because if some player dont play like a team now all wanna play individualy because all will want teh reliable golde and all will be Kill Stealers for the money and that will be bulllshit because theres will not teamplay, so i dont agree that function.

PD sorry for my grammar

I think it's a good function, cause now when we gank only 1 person gets the gold. So I see no difference only now when we die we don't lose the reliable gold.

yea..and even if your teammates keep kssing you to get the kill for himself to get fat, so what? You are able to get the exp as well, not that you did not get anything. Sooner or later you will outlevel the opponent and it will be an advantage for you, and you yourselves should have the skill to farm to catch up with your teammates, (if you don't have it, i suggest QUIT DotA please) in addition to the advantage you have, you have a higher chance of survivability.. So, who cares if they really wanna ks us ? Just let them be, they are just a mere sore losers that are afraid of losing to people, these kind of people wouldn't improve much

Droid said...

we can then earn money from killing each other purposely..I kill you, you kill me,,we get a fountain of gold that never gets deducted!!lol

Ex. reliable gold doesn't get deducted:

A kills B(A gets 250 RG)
B kills A at the same time(maledict or something)
and they both have 250,,lol...

I DON'T THINK THIS NEW SYSTEM IS A GREAT IDEA THOUGH SINCE IT'LL BE A BIT UNFAIR TO SOME HEROES. IN A TEAM CONSISTS OF DIFFERENT TYPE OF FIGHTERS, SOME ARE SUPPORTIVE TYPE AND SOME ARE KILLER TYPE, AND THIS WILL BE A BIG ADVANTAGE FOR THE KILLERS INSTEAD OF THE SUPPORTIVE TYPE WILL BE IN DISADVANTAGE. THINK ABOUT IT MAN.

Gotta love the idiots and noobs who don't have a clue what it's all about. I think it could be nice idea, don't know for sure until little testing though.

It's obviously aimed at competetive scene, but on the other hand it might encourage useless deaths that feed the enemy on public games. "I don't lose money so it doesnt matter if I go die alone against 4 enemies!!!1oneone."

I think this is the hardest way to learn dota. Because we need to care about our reliable gold and unreliable gold. on my opinion just take out this bullshit system.make it like the others DotA map. Dont change the system for this temporally. Better change the map look . Put more things example, more hide seek place, change the roshan look, the pathways, trees, building, put more animals something, nc creeps . There's so much things u can done . DOnt put on this system yet.ignore for a moment . This my Opinion.

Anonymous said...

for anyone whos disagree with this new system, stop talking like it is that too easy to maintain and improve a game like this.. use your brains.. it can always be rolled back to the old system once this new system really sucks in a real gameplay.. lets just wait to play the map before making any childish comments and being the i-know-everything-man.. personally, i hope this will make the game more challenging.. :)

Apart from it there is HON (Heroes of Newerth) a DOTA like game too. Think twice, 3x or maybe more... before only a week or less to release a new map, now it takes 3 months or so. DOTA = DEAD.

it seems it will spoil the game. having no deduction in your unreliable money if you die and still everyone else can have their item even they die or ganked time to time, so why do you have to be afraid to be push a lane alone if their will be no risk of loosing your money if you die?

Anonymous said...

Pretty Cool, but made DoTA easier O.o

Unknown said...

-.- man looking at people not smarter than a peanut commenting on this new gold system makes me sick, it is good for gankers and not so gd for farmers, but you're forgetting that farmers make money fast and also spend it fast so they don't need to wry abt losing the money they got and icefrog is just reinforcing the hero kill gold so in a 5v5 gank you won't instantly lose the gold you just got out of it because you got killed right after you killed one of their heroes -.-, and no for those who are thinking if your unreliable gold is 150 and you lose 200 it becomes 0 and you won't lose anything from your reliable gold, second denying will still be the same this system has no effect on that whatsoever, because denying creeps also gives less exp for nearby enemy heroes, it's a complicated type of gold system which DOES make it more competitive, and it's not for noobs because it's completely useless for them they'll just end up dying in ganks so they have to use the unreliable gold from farming is a wiser and faster way, and as for heroes like gondar, pit, soulkeeper,visage, trax, it doesn't affect them that much because they buy there items from wherever they are on the map n order not to lose the gold they have, and all of them can be played as gankers as well for all those who don't knw that already -.- stop saying it's easy it's not nice and shit like that it's not gonna be easy it's gonna be harder for those who cannot gank early game, and not that easy for gankers anyway even if they can keep their gank gold what happens if they got ambushed by 2 heroes... and no dota is not dead it's going to get much more exciting after this release knowing this because i play league of legends and dota this is a great system much more to learn and experiece it's a nice concept for me oh but one more thing ... last hitters are so gonna benefit from this and that's just plain stupid =P
