DivA talks new game mode, expanding S2 Games' balance team

Posted by Alex "Gemmanite" Bianchi 3 months ago

OnRPG: A large portion of the community, most likely legacy players, seem to be disappointed by the slow response to balance issues and increasing costs in the goblin shop. How does S2 feel about this and what will be your response?

We are aware of the community's concerns, and as always, we take them very seriously. We're currently in the process of hiring another balance designer to help with the pace of balance content. As far as the Goblin prices go, a lot of our players have actually taken the time to run numbers - and the numbers show that gold prices have actually decreased since the store's initial release.

OnRPG: While the standard DOTA style gameplay is very fun, can we expect any new maps or modes in the future?

You absolutely can! More details to come soon, but the design staff is hard at work putting together an awesome game mode that will serve as an all-action, relaxing change of pace from standard HoN play.”
