    Game speed

    I hope this one suits mechanics section.
    Just ideas or mb some maths. We all know that HoN is much more faster than Dota. But how much?
    Just i was looking through forums and realized that many things should be adjusted to HoN specific game speed.
    Several examples:
    1 Valk's arrow. In dota and HoN it has same speed BUT - in dota heroes move slower then in HoN - result - eaiser to avoid arrow.
    2 Devour's hook. Nothing to add
    3 Deadwood's 1st skill ( delay time).
    More or less this issues re devoted to ported heroes

    just assume its the new pretty graphics and better ping that makes the game feel that way.

    it definitely has a different feel due to a different size of terrain etc.

    ->
    1 Valk's arrow. In dota and HoN it has same speed BUT - in dota heroes move slower then in HoN - result - eaiser to avoid arrow.
    Wasn't the arrow readjusted to match the true speed in dota ?

    I think everything's been working fine. What kind of original and independently developed game would HoN be if it took a magnifying glass to every underlying detail in DotA?

    I don't know what exactly is different between the maps or anything, but I know that whatever the difference is, it's so trivial that I could care less. Devourer's Claw could use some tweaking; I agree with that statement. But arrow is fine.

    I think you're just referring to the server response time - HoN servers are remotely hosted via S2's awesomesauce boxes, so heroes can react faster to arrows. Likewise, you can throw them more accurately thanks to the near-zero lag.

    feels within 90% accurate to me... or in otherwords I can't tell a difference.

    Also don't know why you mentioned deadwood's root, it's a unique hero, there is no basis of comparison...
