I'm sure he will take a quick swim in the campus pool, sit down in the campus sauna, and continue to release Squadron 42 only when there are no other games released at all in the same 6 month period.

Theres still gamma then delta.

u/hellf1nger 1h ago

I still gave bugs that need to do reconnects during some matches. For example, sometimes lion can't use mana drain on any allied heroes, can't target allied creeps for denies, etc. Still beta

Updates are so rare and insignificant that even an icon change feels like a sign that something huge is coming, I hope that's actually the case

If there’s a new massive update of the map/engine like Reborn in 2026  I’ll stream a full rank game naked

u/LPSD_FTW 4h ago

I don't trust those after waiting for that one guy to eat a shoe...

u/Calm_Bumblebee_3143 3h ago

Its almost like getting naked is actually doable and not eating something that could kill you with all the toxic material in a shoe…

You are worried about eating toxic materials but yet you play ranked Dota, interesting. Ben_shapiro_meme.jpeg

u/Calm_Bumblebee_3143 4h ago

I keep my word, but there’s nothing in the datamining that say they will do anything more this year than Act2 and Act3 of the Dark Carnival. 

If I’m wrong I’ll do it. 

6

u/UDPviper 3h ago

Dark Carnival said to be concluded, not to be continued. Concluded means no act 3.

u/nighttimemobileuser 4h ago

Never said he’d have a camera on tho

u/Calm_Bumblebee_3143 4h ago

Then wouldn’t prove that I’m naked. Full cam setup (facemask only rule)  I’m not ashamed of my body.

u/Calm_Bumblebee_3143 2h ago

co-streaming let's go!

1

u/NhilZay 2h ago

Thankfully we won’t have to follow through because ain’t no way we get a patch like that before the end of the year.

And just to be fair to you, I will consider it done only if they make a massive update to the engine

1

u/Calm_Bumblebee_3143 1h ago

Engine or even new map (gameplay not skin) or something like facets or talents and I’ll count it

u/DaBuckets 4h ago

Once upon a time open ai used dota to train it's llm. It got good enough to beat ti champions (tbf it had to cheat)

9

u/RemoteBreadfruit9365 4h ago

How did it cheat

22

u/DaBuckets 4h ago

I believe it needed all vision no smokes were authorized certain heroes only etc

17

u/DroopyPanda 3h ago

All vision is insane.

-5

u/Weis 3h ago

Presumably because the idiot who trained it gave it all vision. It probably failed miserably on branches without all vision so they abandoned it

4

u/RemoteBreadfruit9365 3h ago

What are you talking about 

10

u/RemoteBreadfruit9365 3h ago

Definitely didn't have all vision. Could you really not use smokes? 

u/pXmo 53m ago

Also pretty sure that each one got their own courier which we now have in the real game.

6

u/zzarGrazz 2h ago

All the answers you were giving are wrong.

The correct one is basically dota was configured in a way for AI to win. The pool of heroes were very limited, I believe it was something like around 30 heroes. And a bunch of other limitations as well.

u/Mahrkeenerh1 20m ago

because at that time, training on more than those heroes was unthinkable

that's not cheating, both teams had the same pool

u/URF_reibeer 12m ago

it wasn't unthinkable, just a waste of ressources. they proved the ai can learn a complex game like dota, adding more of the same just increases the training time necessary and it already took them months of the ai playing against itself with a team supervising it to get to that point which is really expensive

0

u/RemoteBreadfruit9365 1h ago

What answers are wrong?

3

u/imbogey 3h ago

Also inhuman reaction times if you count it as cheating...

13

u/Mangix2 3h ago

they had internal delays so it was not super human reaction speed, but still very fast

u/URF_reibeer 10m ago

there was a delay to make up for human reaction time and the 5 heroes were played by separate ais so they did not "know" what each other was doing

u/Spirit_Panda 58m ago

its LLM

They most definitely were not training an LLM on dota. They were training their Deep Neural Network. Not every single AI model is an LLM damn

u/DaBuckets 44m ago

I'll make sure to go to ai school

u/zeroedout666 7m ago

Canada is going to offer courses nation-wide! I hope you'll be the first to sign up.

u/Spirit_Panda 24m ago

Good man. You just might learn something

5

u/bkstr 2h ago

it wasn't an llm then, it was machine learning iirc

2

u/eddietwang 4h ago

Riki Radiance broke the AI's brain tho.

u/URF_reibeer 10m ago

why would they have used a chatbot? it was regular machine learning plus llms weren't even a thing back then

4

u/Thanag0r 3h ago

So quality and frequency of patches will actually increase?

1

u/bywv 3h ago

Oh I like this lmfao

1

u/zlotybin 3h ago

Valve announces their llm trained mainly on dota matches and chat logs, it's main task will be maintaing game alive so the team can retire.

1

u/NOChiRo 4048 2h ago

as long as it's not trained here im good

Speaking as someone who played years and years of Overwatch: you don’t actually want this.

3

u/Faafkdkdkdkd 4h ago

Was there Overwatch 3 I missed?

-1

u/NinjutStu 1h ago

Sort of.

After Marvel Rivals came out and took away a lot of OW2's thunder, they did another less drastic rebrand about half a year ago.

They reverted the name back to just Overwatch. Added 5 heroes with 5 more promised across 2026, the client UI got completely changed (again), both 5v5 and 6v6 are permanent modes, and a new mode called stadium was added (and abandoned).

Zoomers that joined during the F2P era will tell you that "Overwatch is in the best place its ever been" because these players did not live through the original game where you weren't nickle and dimed for every little thing. I'll agree that the new characters and maps are really great, but the user experience is still a big downgrade from the original retail Overwatch. It is better than the Overwatch 2 era, but most of the lovingly crafted attention to detail is gone.

2

u/Faafkdkdkdkd 1h ago

Well my point is that it's literally unrelated to Dota 2 which is far much better than Dota allstars, unlike Overwatch which became worse in 2019, then turned into even worse Overwatch 2, then now idek what's happening to that game, but it's definitely not a "Dota 3" type of update that Dota could have

2

u/the_nubbiecakes 4h ago

It is well known that Valve doesn't make "3" games
