S2 considering a Deathmatch mode for Hon
Our prayers may be answered soon. Idejder hinted on Reddit that a modified Deathmatch mode would be possible.
Instead of going through each Hellbourne and each Legion hero 1 by 1 when you die though, duplicate mode would basically be activated, so you would end up getting the same hero more than once. And the game would end at a set number of deaths per team, like 30.
Not sure why this bunch of Comp Sci guys doesn’t just figure out how to program it the right way like in classic Dota, but at least they are finally considering doing something like it. Maybe when they think about it some more they will figure out how to accomplish it.
In the past, S2 has flip-flopped between saying there’s not enough interest or it is impossible to do (hero resources are loaded at beginning of game so loading ALL heroes for Deathmatch would take forever for the game to load, or loading a new hero one-by-one during the game when an old one died would create a big spike like in Dota).
Impossible? No. Challenging, perhaps. Tell Maliken to shove it for a week and knock out a big programming sesh small sons, no one cares about new heroes and alt avatars. Do it for Hon. Then get fired for insubordinance, toss that shit on your Resume and go work for Valve. HHHHEASY

What if instead of letting you random all of the heroes your team picks 10 heroes of every atribute (10 int 10 str 10 agi) and everytime you die you will get 1 of the 25 heroes until all the heroes are depleted.
Just a tip those who know anything the sound that plays at the pick screen for deathmatch mode is already shipped with hon and another interesting one too. If you rename resources0 from s2z to zip you can look for it.
too bad dota 2 will have custom maps
shits gonna hit the fan real hard when that happens

Don’t care.. DotA 2. Talk about DotA or HoN drama you fucking nigger shits.
If anyone remembers the death match mode from beta, anytime a hero was ‘loaded’, ie: someone respawned, the game would fucking freeze for 5 seconds, now imagine that when you’ve genocide’d their team… I don’t think there’s any way to fix that shit.
couldnt you use a console command to just preload all shits for instant loading times in the old days?
If you did that, you could then have a mod to show what your next hero will be.
pause the game everytime someone dies
more time for g dropping amirite
S2 trying to get this shit out on the court in the last minute of the fourth quarter. Fag sons are way too late, anyone who’s anyone has realized what a joke excuse for a company S2 is and has moved on to dota2.
