HCE - HoN Community Europe - Inhouse Gaming at its best!

[Slamdancer]

http://i26.tinypic.com/30df5g2.jpg

I would like to introduce you to the new Hoeroes of Newerth Community Europe - HCE.
The former DCE Leadership from DotA with years of experience under their belt is currently working on setting up an Inhouse Community for High Skilled players who are looking for competitive games within a friendly environment.
Our offer is open for anybody who wants to give it a try and post a vouchrequest. Also, if you are not from europe, don't hesitate, apply by all means!
Now of course the questions are starting to pop up in your heads.

What does HCE offer you exactly?

- competitive games in a friendly environment moderated by experienced administrators ( more than 5 years of experience with ( DotA ) Inhouse Communities and their administration ( http://www.dce-gaming.com ))
- a functional homepage with an adjacent forum to discuss and communicate with your fellow players you meet in your hopefully everyday gaming routine in HCE => http://www.hce-gaming.com
- an improved warning and punishment system ensuring you leaver-free and mannered games on a high level
- a lot of fun

What does HCE expect from you in exchange?

- at least mid to mid-high skill level concerning last hitting, map awareness, knowing the heroes roles, etc.
- good manners and sticking to the principles HCE stands for
- activity in the forum and the game, it is not mandatory, but you will find it to be fun!

Become a part of the community now!
In order to become a community member in HCE, just visit http://www.hce-gaming.com/ and follow the instructions in the vouching forums and their stickies.
Since the future channel "Clan HCE" is not yet moderateable due the incomplete the clan feature, the channel is still open for everyone of you who wants to play competitive games or just see how well our members are getting along. You can also participate and visit us in the forums already. If you liked what you saw, why not apply?

The HCE Management is looking forward to seeing you in channel clan HCE!

Update October 2009:

Slamdancer and I, along with some old mates from DotA, started HCE 3 months ago. We had the aim to form a small high class community to have good in house games on a high skilled level with people you know. We had a great start, every evening we had some in house games running with only HCE player in. Our community has grown. We had ~70 trials at peak time! But with so many trials the quality of the games decreased so some player preferred playing >1900 pubs instead of a HCE game and additionally lots of primarily high active player and staff member lost there interest in HoN and went back to DotA or real life.
All this lead to a decreasing activity and the HCE management decided to take action.

As most of you already noticed we split our community into 2 parts.
• HCE – HoN Community Europe
• HCI – HoN Community Invite

HCE focuses on mid skilled, mannered and leaver free games. A moderated channel easy to access with a small vouch request and without trial phase.

HCI focuses on high skilled competitive games like clan wars. HCI will be an invite only channel. Our voucher will look in normal HCE games for talented players and invite them into HCI.

We added all current trials into HCE and all previous vouched player into HCI. Additionally we go through denied trial threads and add all player who fulfil our current requirements for HCE to HCE.
So if your trial phase got denied check our site frequently to check if you got vouched into HCE. Due to the high amount of denied trial threads this procedure will take some time.

If you got any ideas how to improve the new system feel free to open a thread and discuss it with us. Also if you feel like helping our community with your knowledge / free time, drop a pm to slamdancer or me.

Have fun playing at HCE

[KaiOshin]

Actually the guys which are playing there are just to good, I prefer playing publics, since those guys just make me end with 2 -18 stats, something like that. If u feel good enough, its definately the place for you to play, If not keep on playing publics, like me.

One day I gonna own them though but I doubt I will improve in publics, **** it is actually a circuit which i cannot leave. There have to be better people in HON around which could **** up their asses, hopefully.

I go play a ****ing boring pubby now...bah Hate u guys

[ArticE]

Ahah nice comment KaiO ^^, if you are mid-high skill, bored about public games with fail people/insult/flames... Try to be vouched on HCE ! Nice community with a good staff => always good game !

I registered a few days ago on your site, but still haven't received my activation email. Who should I contact to get another activation code (the site is unfortunately rather vague on this issue, it tells me to contact an admin, but doesn't tell me how)?

[spr1te]

It's in the spam folder.I had the same issue

I want to bump this, come join us. We're basically only waiting for the ingame community features to get started completely. Right now we have many IHs going on with safelisted players and trials

[Slamdancer]

[Drunken_Jedi]

Thanks, it was indeed in the spam folder.
I had actually originally checked my spam folder, but apparently I only scanned the addresses, expecting to find something like HCE or HoN Community Europe or something similar, when in fact the address was ei553@arcor.de (which I assumed was just spam).

[EI553]

Oo my email isnt spam!!

:mad:

[Legolas28]

Oo my email isnt spam!!

[AngryN00B]

[Asamoya]

Just a question; if ur already vouched on DCE, do you still have to make a new vouch request / do tgs for HCE? ^^

[AngryN00B]

yes you do, HCE is not the same as DCE, the rules are derived

[badreaper]

We're a badass community guys! High skill and high fun. Whoever doesn't join us is like purchasing wc3 to play dota in single player. You don't know what your'e missing.

[Sayara]

Hce guys are great bunch apart from certain Serbian who kickbans you after some nerdraging for saying "LOL" in game chat. Everyone else is a charm to play with and I recommend it. But remember: LOL IS TRASHTALKING YOU BANNED NAO. Don't do it.

[baiNey]

This community is worth looking into, good ppl running the show, excellent quality of play from the majority of players I have played with and good manners all around.

You guys got my thumbs up! :)

[Freshpro]

[Io]

thats exactly what we are going to change. dce had its great players but also very low skilled people. We want the latter to stay out and play somewhere else.

[Freshpro]

Sounds good then, il check it out

[DualCross1]

I agree with snowblind`

[EI553]

haha nice *****ing from 2 players who arent even vouched :D

but anyway thx for the bumb ;)

[DualCross1]

bumb ;)

[AngryN00B]

really bad leadership from ei553!

[Io]

gnihihihi oktoberfest now ?`

[Cadia]

Sounds excellent. Actually popped on here to see if there was any down-to-earth in-house setups.

Altho I played DotA LAN I wasn't big on playing it online (mainly because of the sh*t attitude of players). Given HoNs rating system, what would you regard as mid-high skilled?

As I personally hover at 1600-1650 and I'm quessing this is low-mid?

[Bassai]

Not very high, it is..
Most people in HCE are around 1900.

However, if ure interested, write an application and gogo trial!
Nice community.

[k1desu]

pro players 2 pro 2 play with

[Io]

well I'd like to have a high psr too but I dont play publics at all or maybe on ten ih games I play one public. Hence my psr really sucks. PSR just isnt sufficient to express skill for IH communities.

[BoDyBoArD]

Rly nice community so as the inhouse's. Join high skilled players and u wont have to suffer another pub again.

[MilkaCow]

But what is with those people, who, on an very basic level enjoy it to always have a sucking public team, so they can flame and ask everyone why they always get the noobs?

[FuzzyWuzzy]

Applied. Let me know in game or on a private message if I get in.

[Senfei]

nice community!

[EI553]

we currently had a reorganization. check post #1 for more information!

[TwilightStar]

go ladies GO!

[FuzzyWuzzy]

Hmmm, I still can't get the meaning of the post.

All HCE members are now in HCI, and all people that are unvouched but have applied for vouch are now in HCE?

[TwilightStar]

There's kinda "lowish" requirements for HCE yet, coz' there aren't many that are aware of the place at all. Rest think it's kinda useless. They're pretty much wrong tho ;)

Anyhow the point is to get alot of people in and pick the good ones there to get HCI filled up, is to get good games with people who can play better than most ;) And no, not everyone who were vouched before have gotten into HCI. Also HCE's requirements will gradually rise higher, yet to maintain a steady playerbase it'll have to go slowly for now.

Simply put: HCE and HCI are in their infancy yet, they will grow up eventually.

[FuzzyWuzzy]

Yeah, I know what the goal is.

I didn't get the actual implementation, since I still don't have access to the HCI part of the forums ^^

[JusUniQ]

i wish to give this a try, i have played dota for about 4 years almost, switched to hon, had to adjust for awhile so my stats aren't the greatest (1.5kd/ratio) and such, but im looking for more challenging games, and so i just drop by in the channel?

...1700psr plus? did not see that, looks like i will have to bump myself up there.

[thomasdh]

great guys great games what more you want?!

[Freshpro]

great skill and no pubs ? woops i overasked : (

[FuzzyWuzzy]

^^ babes? :D

Seriously though, it's a great community and you can play excellent IH, especially in the weekends.

If you're keeping up 1,5kd with a lot of games played you need to stop playing with people that are worse than you. :P Move up in levels.
