Dota 2 with a new update system!

in #dota27 years ago

This morning a breakthrough change in the Dota 2 update system was announced. It was announced by the main game developer - IceFrog.
Using his Twitter account, IceFrog posted an entry containing details of the new patch policy. For the period of six months, the current method of a few large updates during the year is to be forgotten. It will be replaced every two weeks on Thursday with smaller changes. In order for players to be up to date with them, a new option will be added to the game client, allowing them to get acquainted with them.

The original text of the statement:

IceFrog

''We want to take a different approach to how gameplay patches are released. Instead of big patches, every day, we'll be releasing small patches every 2 weeks on Thursdays. We're trying to find out for six months and then reevaluating.''

This change will undoubtedly affect the professional stage. So far, after each large patch, the teams strived to develop the best strategy as soon as possible, although they usually could use it for a long time. The current approach seems to lead to greater diversity of the finish and its more frequent changes. Thus, players will have to show greater flexibility and readiness to adapt. However, thanks to the fact that the patches will be much smaller, the teams will not be "thrown into deep water".

More frequent changes solve the problem of waiting for a good moment with their introduction. The schedule of professional games, filled to the limit, made it impossible to introduce a large update without a collision with the tournament. In addition, they will also allow for faster balancing of heroes and items. Ultimately, however, this time will show how the new system will work and if Valve decides to leave it for longer.
