    So anyone play this game? I have been addicted to it for a few weeks now and its one of the best games i ever played! Its like a much better version of DOTA like DOTA 2.

    If you dont already play it you should check it out!

    Tried it, was not a fan of the community. I've been playing LoL instead, which is free to play.

    meh, never been a fan of RPG and don't like where S2 is headed, but for the sake of Savage I suppose I'm slightly happy they're making money now.

    I don't have a beta key for HoN that's why I never tried it. If anyone knows where I can get one please PM me. Thanks, would love to try it.

    League of Legends is quite... ok... But I'd say Heroes of Newerth is a bit more fun o.o

    LoL however does have a different map and i like the tall grass system where you turn invisible if you're in there (Sorta like hiding in between trees in Dota)

    I play and its fun but as one of the other posters said I'm not a fan of the community. Once the game goes Gold and they actually want the $30 to play I'm going to stop playing because well...at a $30 price point I could use my money in a lot better ways.

    I'm a DotA vet, but lately I only play LoL, which I've loved. Never played HoN, but I hear it's good too. I like that LoL has a lot of innovations that DotA did not, such as scaling spell power (huge!), 2 universal spells that any character can pick at the beginning of a map, stealthing in grass, much smaller maps for better ganking, supporters being credited for assists when they debuff an enemy or heal an ally within a short time of a kill, etc.
