The Star Vault dev team has been challenged in Dota by the community in the IRC Mortal Online channel several times. So far we have turned the challenges down (as we didn’t want to hurt anybody’s self-esteem), but after numerous requests we have decided to put an end to this by showing you how the game is really meant to be played. It’s Devs against Community!
We have chosen Souljah to be in charge of putting together a team representing the MO community. If you are interested in playing in the Community Team pm Souljah or contact him in IRC for a tryout.
The Dev Team will consist of Markus, Charlie, Erik, Jens and Henrik - and we won’t accept any losses.
If the Community Team wins the match there will be the following rewards for the community:
A unique in-game Screenshot
The community may ask to see 2 concept drawings/models of whatever you want to see from Mo on the forum, and we will show them to you, in their current state, finished or not (if we have them at all). You may discuss and compose a list of which concepts/models you want to see on the forum. Souljah will ultimately decide on the priority of the list should the community be unable to do so.
A beta account for each player in the Community Team.
If the Dev Team wins the match there will be the following rewards for the community:
None

Tue Jan 20 2009 2:20PMMaybe if those games were balanced.....
Indeadly, pileopoop,
Wed Jan 21 2009 2:44AMand Consesus, Dota isnt the average Warcraft, and nowhere near WoW if you think that, its where you control a single unit in attempts to destroy the other base, teams of 2v2 threw to 8v8...
So insted of bringing up FPS games, how about bringing up how you would rather another play another RTS or ThirdPerson RPG....and i dear you to say WoW..
Sweet, whoever is on the community team...Kick some ass! I want more concept ART!
Wed Jan 21 2009 2:51PMonikageninja don't talk about stuff you do not know.
its 1v1 - 5v5
Dota in its own right has established itself as the most popular mod on Wc3 for several years now. I remember version 1.0, and that came out 8 years ago. Unfortunately the Dota community is generally made up of people playing drunk and/or high. If you make a single mistake you will be ridiculed by everyone and its almost as if talking shit is half the game.
Pileopoop
its funny cuz the version of dota they listed isn't balanced, its just the newest.
