At last, IceFrog has blogged the final update of DotA 6.69 map to notify the DotA fans that new patch is about to release soon. The DotA 6.69 is focused to provide balance and gameplay improvements, he added. Also, it was already mentioned that this map will contain a traditional quest and a new loadscreen. Check, what he said in his own words:
Last update: DotA 6.69 released!
6.69 Status - IceFrog Blog:
The update is nearing completion. It took a little longer than anticipated, but it should be ready soon. The primary focus of this patch is to provide overall balance and gameplay improvements, while the follow-up content for 6.70 is still being developed. Of course you can still expect the traditional .x9 quest to be included!This is very exciting news, Let's see what Quest IceFrog hides in DotA 6.69. Anyway, you can find DotA 6.69 Secret Quest guide here on DotA-Utilities right after map release. So, keep your fingers crossed!
I plan to release this within a week or two to provide some time before the start of some big tournaments in the following months.
wow 1st blood
ReplyDeleteCan't w8 to take my hands on this phoenix. Go Icefrog keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteawesome
ReplyDeleteI cant wait
ReplyDeleteSeems like there won't be any new stuff in this map. But, I still expect some proper balancing to the new heroes especially to Gyrocopter & Ancient Apparition. I hope IceForg fixes them.
ReplyDelete^ Warcraft III has 8MB limit for map size. At the moment, 6.68c takes 7.3MB space.. if IceFrog adds any new stuff he'll probably have to remove same game modes/heroes in order to putt new stuff.. so keep dreaming and wait for Valve's DoTA =))
ReplyDelete@ 7:58 PM
ReplyDeletedude the current ancient apparition ultimate is fine with 45 secs cooldown.. his old ultimate was not balanced.. if you play 6.67c you will realise... gyrocopter needs a bit balance though
bunch of kids crying over hero balancing mind your own business and let icefrog do his job to balance the game its not your work
ReplyDeletei just want to play this map only for the hidden quest and phoenix.. but ice said no new stuff wtf?
