I'm amazed that I didn't see this thread earlier. I would love to join.


My credentials:

One and a half years of commitment to designing and giving feedback for heroes on this board. I have over 30 hero drafts sitting around on my computer.

Three years of competitive DotA experience, and two years of competitive HoN experience.

Five years of Photoshop experience. I can make icons in a snap, and pretty much make anything that you need for making the hero look well polished(outside of the game coding).

Anyway, I'd love to become involved with this.

Yeey, you're the one who designed Felsprite, one of my favourites on the suggestion forums. Glad you've shown up. Please, PM Melto, he's the boss. We certainly will welcome an artist.

Our little idea is getting bigger *-*

Actualy, we can make a map exclusively for new heroes, totaly different from the basic DotA/HoN gameplay, something like a hero arena or another idea with some unique stuff, or even many maps with only the heroes designed by our team. We have infinite possiblities, we should think about it as soon as we have enough heroes to make something like that.

Yes, but let's think small and simple for now. If anything, we can submit a classic Caldavar map with custom heroes to Dream.

Now I am a member


I received the update, but how exactly should I get involved? Am I just waiting for someone to ask me to do something?

[UnumSceleris]

I have no clue... I guess PM Melto with reviews of the heroes? Or ask him in a PM what you can help on? PMs seem to be the best way to get answers from him...

[[SotW]ChaiKnight]

so... Comedian is out, eh?

edit: i know he needs a huge nerf, but i'd just love to see if he could work.

[[OhN]HawkeyeBR]

I've PMed Melto today with some balancing I noticed. He didn't answered yet.

[zajoman]

Sometimes he takes some time to answer. Just be patient, guyz.

[UnumSceleris]

NOE we need our fearless leader NAO!!! :<

I hope the graphics people are working on making shiny new models/skins for the heroes...

[[LBI]Melto]

Hi people, Sorry I had a hard Week... :s
... but i'm still alive...

I'll send you soon guys state of project...

[[OhN]HawkeyeBR]

Melto messages folder must be overflowing by now with our desperate cries.

[sp0olage]

great idea.

GL with the project guys.

[ArnoldRimmer]

Reporting in. Apart from being an old-school hero drafts lurker, I'm a seasoned unreal tournament modder/map maker. So if you need help with skinning/textures I'm you're dood.

[UnumSceleris]

Did Blackryu actually contact you about this project Melto? I thought he recently got hired by S2... Either way if he is indeed part of the project it would be a great help!

Is it for OSX too?

@WhiTdeMoN; Apologies, we mean no disrespect. We will keep your hero under consideration for future versions, but our team already has their hands full with our initial heroes. Right now we're looking more for people who can help with technicalities in the project (coding/art/models/videos/etc) than for heroes to work on (of which we currently have a surplus).

And it seems our current internal structure/lines of communication are currently lacking -.-;; we should really do something about that... I do advise however you edit the first post with a link to your hero embedded into the text so we can have easy access when looking for heroes in our later versions.



@HammerXTime; I believe it should work with OSX... the code we are using works on both operating systems. I believe we will be making a map with custom heroes which should allow dual compatibility, however I'm not knowledgeable about how a custom server would deal with operating system differences... so in short it should be, though it depends on our approach to this task... It should be worth factoring into our system that there are Mac users out there... thanks for bringing up the issue.
