alright cool, thanks for the replies everyoe, i enjoyed reading them :)

so if i gathered all the info correctly, Heroes of newerth is really similar to dota and i would have no problem adjusting to the game then? besides the new heroes and shops.

my last question is regarding the issue of leavers....ugh how i hate leavers! In HoN, are there lots of leavers in public games? also when a person disconnects, do they often rejoin the game?
i read up on that there is an option to rejoin the game if you get disconnected, which i find really sweet, but do people actually rejoin or just leave permanently?

if there are barely any leavers then i'm pretty sure i will buy the game :) but if there are as much leavers as dota Public games then i might as well stick with dota :( *sadness

Theres 2 types of "public" games.

Stats - Leavers get a leaver % and eventually cannot join "no leaver" games
No Stats - Some leavers, usually leave after feeding/failing hard.

In short: Stats games have leavers occasionally but it hurts them, and no stats games you will probably have a leaver every couple games.

There are very few leavers. Also, if you somehow got dc'd from the game, you have something like 5mins to get back into that game.

so recently i heard about this game, since i see the word "HoN" all the time in the forums saying it's like dota and stuff (i love dota)
google'd it, read up on it, and saw the price tag of $30 bucks :(

i don't have that much spare money per se...if i don't have to buy it, i won't, but i am looking for a new computer game to play.

is this game worth the $30 bucks? and do you think it's better than dota?

thanks :)


No.... don't play.
