I am just wondering been wanting to get the game with a few friends to just play a couple games with them...

Is there still anyone whos actually active still on it?

I was wondering this too, but don't have game installed atm

good question, would love to give this game a whirl again and get some custom games going if anybody still plays... only problem would be low population and NOBODY having any of the old custom maps on there computers lol

I might install this again and play custom games with friends again. I miss those tower defense games.

OFC it is

Somewhat.
Dota games still get full easily.
Ladder games take forever to search (2s, 3s, 4s)
Forget about arranged team games.

Which dota version is it on there?

I play every day

Nice

theres a website with most of the custom maps on it
