I'd like to see this feature being implemented, with nice callouts being made when people die 3-10 times in a row much like the killing spree callouts.
These callouts could be like "Feeder!", "Masochist!", "Shape up!" or whatever, but it would be pretty amusing to have them to so the feeders would be publicly humiliated in a way :p

As a game developer, you really do not want to give your players a bad experience.

It wouldn't be like that, the callouts could be made in a humorous way.

I think it would be hilarious and (sometimes) helpful, but I have to agree more with Hakmon and say that the idea of the game isn't to make anyone feel bad, regardless of how bad they're playing.
(That's their teammates' goal ^ ^)

What, of course they should implement this.
I know there's lots of QQing and ragequits in HoN/DotA but lets get realistic here.... Are we 8 or 18??? (Can guarantee game will be rated M for mature).
I'd like to see "Humiliation", "Feeder", and "Useless as boobies on a man!" all said in that deep Unreal Tournament style voice.
If the players end up crying over that, perhaps they should get off of their older siblings computer and go play Polly Pocket or w/e kids play these days.
BTW: As this will be a digital release, a credit card will most likely be required which should eliminate the people that would apparently be offended by this. If it scares away the kiddies then I say do it.

Well.. Thatīs kinda pure cheering and/or a point to make ppl play more and more.. I mean, like "hunger for blood" , thats the way I feel when I listen to the "Dominating!" Sound... This is very awesome... But as some said, in someways, people ( Read RAGE-CHILDREN ) canīt stand the idea that this is to encourage the battle and not to mention that youīre a complete loser... well.. Assuming that this is not of our responsibility, I leave the decision to the staff, as the game objectives/ age requirements.

Have to agree. These are the type of attitudes that made playing DotA so lousy.

ok well i don't understand the negativity towards this idea, but oh well :)
it's not meant to make the person feel bad, but to motivate them to do better.
IE: Counterstrike - getting knifed = Humiliation
Dota/HoN - getting killed 5 times in a row = Humiliation
I think it would be a fun addition, but its unnecessary and if people don't like it then S2 might as well not include it.... Though please include a script so we can add it to custom servers :P.
It's not motivation. It's public humiliation, and unless you aren't of the right mind, you don't want.
The reason to begin with as to why you'll be dying so much is because you'll be ownt by pros. I don't see nagging voices helping that.
What an idiotic idea.
