If you wish to play dots on dota 2 with /jp/:
join the steam group https://steamcommunity.com/groups/jpdots
if no lobbies are up, feel free to create one yourself with password /jp/dots and create an announcement on the group
you can also join the channel /jp/dots in the client
>>15266367
I would be fine with either than or an irc.
>>15266367
Got ID blocked on facebook where I would normally talk with my normie friends from university and discord is far better than skype has ever been, so it's rather the only thing I use lately
>>15266367
>using a botnet that takes all of your info and sells it to the Chinese.
>>15266367
Nope. I use mumble.
>>15266664
Are you using Google, a smartphone, windows and stuff like that? If so you should really not worry about "people selling your information" as everyone already sold all kind of information of you.
>>15267489
Does this mean CIA knows I searched for whether a chick that got pregnant through surgery would still count as a virgin if her cherry hasn't been popped beforehand?
>>15267573
Wow the group is big. How many actually play?
>>15269231
Like 20.
>>15269231
There's about 12 or 15 regulars, I am bad at remembering names so don't quote me on that.
>>15269231
Well the group creator doesn't. That should tell you everything.
+2 cykas for gaemu
pw /jp/dots
who /canonlyplayuse/ here?
>>15269532
I get 160 ping to USW but that is manageable for me.
>>15269559
i get that on use already. usw is 215 for me. seems a small difference, but is much worse
>>15269532
I can only play AU or USW.
New lobby up! Come play /jp/!
>>15269686
>we'll never play together
geography is suffering
>>15267489
If any of those people actually were using my info to sell me shit then how come they haven't made a game I like or recommended me a good one?
>>15269359
That's a lie. I don't play a lot but I do play.
Le balanced spoopy ghost face
>>15270351
Chitori Chimae?
Yet another lobby of joy and fun is up and at 8/10! Come play!
So I finally bothered to see what was on the board near the river
this motherfucker right here...
That was a nice game!
>>15271170
comeback games are nice!
One of these days.
>>15270734
>memes
chinks pls
how often do new 2hoes come into the game?
boat a shit
a SHIIIITTTT
>>15271231
Just like her vanilla dota counterpart.
>>15271206
A hero every month or two, I'd say.
>>15269532
US E is actually my worst region in terms of ping.
>>15271269
Or 5,don't get your hopes too high up.
MEILING WHEN
>>15271905
Not soon enough
>>15271901
We got Murasa, Yukari, Ran and Yuuka all since february.
>>15266353
>join the steam group
>instaling steam
Is there any way to play it without jewteam?
>>15273474
There's no other way to play this without steam since dota2 is a valve game and thus only available through steam.
>>15273487
Fug. It would be first moba game that I could propably enjoy.
>>15273493
First ARTS? Well then, keep in mind that DotS is very much like early warcraft 3 dota in the sense that everything is broken as fuck to some extent. Except Murasa, she is kinda useless.
It is really fun tho!
>>15273665
Freaking Border of Life.
>>15273665
YURIIII
>>15273665
The wombo combo
dots when?
>>15275489
Now

It is time for sunday night DotS! Come play!
usual pass.
>>15276840
One day!
>>15276840

One day will random not Reisen!

>>15276840
I want to explode all over Okuu's face!
just too much for Yamaxanadu
I won't be able to play dots tonight. Hope you guys have fun though!
It is time for religious war once again!
usual pass
>>15282207
Are there any religious wars in Overwatch?
>>15282316
Nope! That's why you should play DotS instead!
Are peeps willing to play not overwatch tonight or should we not bother?
>>15288015
Why would anyone pay for tf2 lite, you can play tf2 with 2hu skins anyways
>>15288320
Last night /jp/ attendance was rather low, took a while to fill a lobby and had to go public to get the last 2 slots filled. I can only assume overwatch launching yesterday was not a coincidence.
last night as well as tonight there were not as many people in the /jp/ channel as there usually are before I even make a lobby. So yeah, this week may be slow while people get their dose of paid plus micro transactions TF2.
On a semi-related note, I've tried using those touhou fortress models but they make my game crash as soon as I join a server but work when I host a server myself. Any idea on how to fix that?
>>15288357
Not sure haven't played it in years very well could be broken now
>>15288357
>there were not as many people in the /jp/ channel as there usually are
i noticed this as well. i just don't if this was due to weekday, dots hype dying out or overwatch. probably the latter.
hopefully we get some dots today
also, Alice when? ;_:
>>15289680
You automatically join chats on launching dotka, people not being in the channel means they were not in dota2 at all so I don't think it's because they lost interest in dots. They presumably just got a shinny new game that will keep them busy for a bit. Or were busy because weekday, or both.
>>15289696
I fucked up my sleep schedule again and I'm always gone when /jp/ wants to play, this is suffering
>>15290559
To to bed german
I really don't care for mobas, but if I can play as Ran I'll make an exception.
Can I?
>>15290659
Ran is in the game so the answer is yes!
>>15290666
alrighty then
>>15290797
You don't belong here.
Fuck off
Soooo
Does anybody plays original dots?
And if yes, then where, and what version?
>>15290862
cute gif dude
Shrine defending time is upon us! Come join the fun!
Usual pass
Interest seems to be lower after overwatch's release.
If the rest of the week and the weekend result in failed attempts to get a game going then I'll stop hosting for some time before testing the waters again. It is also posible people are growing a bit tired of DotS and a future patch will make the game interesting again.
Or maybe this is just bad luck and I'm a fucking idiot, who knows.
>>15290862
v0.990a Test Fix2 Eng v1 is the latest classic version I have on my computer.
Its kinda clunky and the english is kinda here and there + you may or may not need to install a model pack before you can actually see anything.
So, I installed all the things and would like to play with you.
However, I know nothing about this game except what I gleaned from ye olde DotA-type WC3 maps.
Before I'm insulted and get my teeth kicked in by total strangers, is there a way I can prepare myself so that I don't perform like a complete tool?
>>15293700
I may join up when/if I actually see it. Haven't been on jp since the major /vg/ split and only really came back a while ago for the eroge thread, so didn't know about all of this. Have never played this mod though, so I'd need to get carried.
>>15294677
Make a custom lobby with bots and read some descriptions
>>15294677
go to Arcade -> Lobby List -> Create Custom Lobby, select DotS, put a whatever password and Enable Cheats.
When the game loads, choose a girl and walk around the map, take a look at the items and see what your skills do. You can use some commands to make things faster. Just open Chat (enter) and type:
-gold 444444
to give you 444444 gold
-lvlup 15
to gain 15 levels
-createhero tide enemy
this will create a enemy hero lvl 1 near your position, you can control her and cast her spells. tide will create suika, furion kaguya, puck ran, etc. as you play, you'll see which girls are attached to which dota 2 heroes.
-levelbots 10
give enemy heroes 10 levels
Using this commands you can see what skills do and stuff (some only work against heroes like Shiki, so these commands are useful).
You can check the wiki too. It is not up to date and is missing some stuff, but most stuff is there.
http://en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/Defence_of_The_Shrines_2
>>15294677
>>15294804
but people are ok to help you in the games and tell you what skills to level up first or what items to buy or what lane to go.
except that one autist who keeps talking with accent on the mic non stop and always pick cirno or okuu, eveyone else is chill.
>>15295036
You can mute in custom games, right? Shouldn't be a problem then. (especially since the changes to allow voice only mute)
>>15295050
You can mute both text and voice.
>>15293700
Is it time to start the Overwatch group until people get bored of it?
>>15296470
I don't know mang. I tried overwatch during open beta and I don't think it's worth the 40 shekels. Plus I don't think overwatch is a /jp/ game. All they have is two jap dudes.
>>15296735
It has first day jap voices which is pretty impressive, dota doesn't even have that just some corean voices
>>15296781
Being localized doesn't make it a /jp/ game tho.
>>15293700
Don't worry my man. I've just had a very busy past few days. I'm free all summer now. So there's where one person tent I guess.
Lobby up.
Come suffer with me.
>>15297391
Oh right, which times do people play usually? US times? Then I doubt I could ever join.
>>15294785
>>15294804
Thanks, I found out how to host private games and have been trying out the girls for a bit.
I like Yuyuko because you can ruin other people's days just by hanging out around them.
Suika and Shiki Eiki seem to be fun, too.
>>15298741
I live in the EU.
>>15298910
Maybe we can noob together at some point. I'm in EU too, and only gave a short look at the map (and Suika). Though I do play Dota2, so I have.. some background knowledge. It won't help much though. Suika has Tiny's toss in nerfed form, and I know the neutrals, but.. that's about all that's similar. Even the rng seems "true random" instead of the dota2 typical pseudo random for chance based abilities. There's such a huge difference there it's kinda funny how easily recognizable that part is.
>>15298928
I'm free this afternoon! Though we still lack eight other players.
I honestly understand very little you're talking about, but pseudorandom vs. random was mentioned in the wiki. What does that exactly mean? Unless the game uses the system's entropy "generator", everything is pseudo-random, and even if it does, it's up to debate...
>>15298942
In dota slang, pseudo-random simply means it eliminates huge streaks. Basically the first time a chance is tested it's way lower than your given % of the skill.
In case of a 30% chance it'd be a bit lower than 12%. If that fails, the next time it's ~24%. If that fails ~36%. Until you get a successful roll. Then it's back to ~12%. There's also a "grace period" after which it resets, so you can't abuse this and "prepare" a high chance trigger.
What this results into is that it's REALLY unlikely to get no trigger for a long time, as well as a lot of triggers right after each other. Like getting 3 30% triggers back to back is normally 2.7%, but with "pseudo" it'd be ~0.17%. On average you still have 30% triggers though. Roughly, this kinda changes with high percentages.
You can probably guess why this is done. RNG should only have so much influence on the game and this is a good way to somewhat control it.
Yeah, mechanics. Fun stuff.
>>15299020
and then Koishi crits you 4 times in a roll because it was mandated by the heavens.
EU player here! Anybody playing today?
It seems to be the rise if the EUs.
So far we have only had USE/USW hosts and the regular time has been around 9PM GMT-5.
You guys should host privite EU /jp/ lobbies and see how it goes for you Euros.
Set the password to the usual "/jp/dots" link the lobby to the /jp/dots chat channel and most importantly make a steamgroup announcement. You should specify it us a EU lobby in the announcement for people to know since we rarely get EU lobbies.
Well, I'm up for trying a round today, though again I never played it. Just joined the dots channel ingame for now and check back here every now and then.
I feel though we may wanna wait till a bit later. It's 15:17 here.
>>15299435
Koishi gets guaranteed crits very easily because of anchor stacks + her big HP pool during ult.
I'd play if we get a lobby in EU.
It'll be my first game.
>>15299508
I've been around the threads for a while now, but haven't played as much due to being yet another EU.
My first and only experience at 2hu dots was playing 3v3 with a group of friends where I just random picked snek and proceeded into shouting "WHAT DOES MY ULT DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" while blink teleporting in attempt to hit someone with it since the descriptions for all of her skills were blank for all of usI managed to find out what my ult does in the end. Lost anyway
So, for science. I created a lobby with pw: /jp/dots
Let's see if we get some people, if not well.. maybe another time? It should be EU, but I don't exactly have any place where I can change the server.
I'm not part of the steam-group so I can't announce it there.
>>15300939
Remember to link the lobby to the ingame chat channel as well as the steam group! It is a public steam group and anyone can make announcements. Just make sure you clarify it is EU so the yuropoors notice it!
Steam group and chat >>15266353
The lobby list filter is the "Search custom games" bar, right?
>>15301041
There's a blue button under the lobby list that is used to find passworded lobbies. It's called "Filter by password" or "find private lobby" or something like that
>>15301041
It's "Lobby list" once you've downloaded Dots
Okay, one joined so far, so I'd say we probably need to do this differently. Basically make up some sort of date and time in advance here. The thread is slow enough that we could probably do so. (Also if someone uses steam groups and whatnot, it could be posted there as well) I'm relatively open this weekend afternoon/evening so I'd like some opinions here.
I'll leave the lobby open till 9 (~20minutes from now), but I doubt we'll get at least 6. Under that and it'll probably not make much sense.
>>15301104
That's probably the best idea. Maybe we could try asking d2g, see if there's any potential recruits?
>>15301104
Were there any announcements made on the steam group? It is an open group and regular users can make announcements.
>>15300939
It will create in the best ping you have/your region, no way to change it. Annoying but it's valve what can we do.
>>15301104
we don't really have a time to play, but most games happen during the night, around 22 to 2 where I live (gmt - 3)
We're at 9/10!
>>15301148
>asking d2g
You do NOT want to play with d2g.
>>15301197
Are there two different lobbies on at the same time? Currently 5/10 here
>>15301200
I've played matchmaking with d2g, it's not always a shitshow
So how did those EU lobbies go? Did you get games going?
So recap of this evening:
-Lot's of waiting.
-A 3vs3 round.
-More waiting, just when we hit 6 again -> Patch
-After patch 4 left
-Tried to add public randoms, failed
-Played a round of Epic Boss Fight which takes longer than you'd think
Maybe we can smooth things out a bit in the future.. and not get hit by a patch. Still fun.
>>15302189
The last few days have been rough. Oh well, guess we'll have to wait until the overwatch hype dies out a bit.
>>15302196
I don't know about others but I've been playing Total War Warhammer, not Overwatch.
>>15302202
I assume overwatch is the main culprit because from the day it launched and on we have only been able to get one game going. Of course this may be a coincidence, but it seems very likely.
>>15302196
Maybe advertising in the /u/ game thread may get some people. Touhou should be naturally related to the board? That is if d2g isn't wanted.
I dunno. Overwatch really seems like they try to make it BIG. Doubt that'll happen though, but well. It's new and shiny. It may also not help that Dota 2 has its battle stuff going on since a few days, where people may also rather play matchmaking for quests and hats. (Well hats are important, as all touhou fans know)
>>15302270
Blizzard went all out with the marketing for that game and thus it will receive a lot of attention right off the bat. I personally didn't enjoy it enough during the beta to justify paying 40 shekels for a game that also has micro-transactions.
About that getting people from other boards thing. I'm not sold on that, I like /jp/dots because it is a /jp/ thing.
>>15302314
>I like /jp/dots because it is a /jp/ thing.
this
there's new people, which is fine, but you are panicking because you couldnt get a game today.
we've been getting consistent 5v5 games past week, it just so happens that this week was slow. i was busy, a couple of guys fucked up sleeping schedule, etc. it will go back on track eventually, just chill.
Here's hoping friday night DotS time produces fun games! Lobby up!
Usual pass
Lobby at 50%! Come play /jp/!
>>15302344
>a couple of guys fucked up sleeping schedule
Exactly what happened to me, i couldnt stay awake to play.
Dont worry, ill fix it.
you cuties better be prepared for some dots tonight!
>>15306477
You bet! When is it starting?
>>15306477
Gaaaaaay.
>>15306545
idk, im playing somedotauntil someone creates a lobby, because i cant.
people generally want to play a bit later, like 3 hours from now or something
>>15306551
it's just two girls having some fun together!
>>15306477
I will be there!
So... Wheres the lobby?
>>15307468
My pants.
Late lobby is here! Join up!
usual pass
Lobby is already at 50%! Join fast!
Why isn't there a 2hu tower defense
>>15308485
good question
Second lobby of the night is up after a long game!
>>15308485
There are several, unless you mean a dota 2 custom map TD.
You're at your lane and this bitch comes up to your tower and sits down.
What do you do?
>>15308867
Random Reisen and shoot her from a mile away!
>>15308871
reisens new gun is fucxkng stupid give her a glock
>>15308871
"Random"
Both games were fun!
>>15309032
not on the losign team!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>15309035
Don't be a sore loser! You played and gave it your best, you are a winner in my eyes!
Yo! Anybody up for early games today?
>>15311008
i am!
I made a USE lobby!
>>15311008
>>15311010
Davai
5/10 need more cykas
>>15311008
You're gonna have to wait until my aphrodisiac JAV torrent and game update finishes and I'll be right there
Torrent's at 97% and the update should take less than a minute, so it shouldn't take too long
>>15311115
Lewd!
I'll be there in a minute, I have to warn you though, I have no idea what I'm doing!
>>15311172
You'll be fine! Just ask if you find a blank tooltip.
That wasn't a fun game, sadly. But fear not, second lobby is up!
Well that sucked. I probably won't do it again.
This seems to suffer from the same situation as the fighters, so for someone new like me, it's neither fun nor instructional.
Sorry for dragging you down.
>>15311433
That game was a very poor example of how it should play out. It was just a steamroll.
Close games are a lot of fun!
>>15311433
The only way to improve is to keep playing, no need to be discouraged.
>>15311433
Moba genre at work people
>>15311575
Feels like I'm playing Dota for the first time again! This time with added lag thanks to ping. It's fine though.
>>15311575
That's not what I meant to say!
>>15311570 is absolutely right, again, it's just like the fighters; the skill discrepancy is just too big, and there's no meaningful way to make tiers as the community is too small.
With skill differences being that grave, it's no fun for anybody involved.
If there's anything to take from my post, then it's that you shouldn't come unprepared, unless everybody else is.
>>15311817
You can just divide up the noobs among the teams and have them stick with more experienced players.
There are a few basic principles that, if followed, really limit the degree to which someone can feed.
Man, that's the second time in a row I've gotten baited with an announcement, started up dota, and discovered the game already started.
>>15311899
There are two open games right now
>>15311899
Fourth game of the day is up and with space!
>>15311968
>>15311972
Huh. An announcement popped up about fifteen minutes ago and when I looked, nothing showed up.
>>15311982
15 mins ago? We were in the middle of the game then. Maybe it was one of the EU guys trying to get a EU lobby going. Right now we are on the fourth USE lobby of the day. 8/10
9/10
We need one more.
>>15311817
it is a shame it is not fun for you. it probably willb e more fun if you keep playing and get better but... it is your decision
the noobs could say in the chat who they are and we could put one on each team or something if that's better for everyone.
i dont mind having new people on my team and helping them desu
>>15311817
Teams are pretty random so don't get down when it's one sided it's unavoidable, you'll be on both sides if you play more
That was actually enjoyable, thanks for the game!
Yup, had lots of fun after playing for so long.
Hadn't gotten many chances to play with the regulars due to yuro timezone until now either.
Now for that aphrodisiac JAV
Please buff lategame of PudgeKunnkaTidehunter a bit and I have my girl.
The higher ping was at times a bit annoying as it sometimes spiked a bit. But I've played worse. There were times when EU west had actually worse ping for me than US East now. Something of the routing was broken and only russia worked fine.
Let's try to play some Sunday night DoTS, /jp/!
Usual PW
>>15313504
Did I miss the game?
>>15313543
>Posted 11 mintes ago
I don't think you missed it.
>>15313555
Can't find any games in the lobby list. Well well time for bed anyway.
>>15313543
did you filter with password? also just join the /jp/dots channel
>>15313567
Filter by password.
Hint. It's /jp/dots
>>15313567
Its usually a private game. Just search /jp/dots in the password section.
New lobby join up same pass!
>>15313730
9/10 join fast!
The next one will be a win. I can feel it.
Carry Tenko is a thing I guess.
>>15313916
Poor Mokotan, she tried so hard, but a certain other immortal is just stronger.
New lobby is up!

I swear to god everyone I've heard talk in this game has a russian accent, just how much of /jp/dots is russian?
>>15314361
That's probably because one of the only guys that talks is Russian
>>15314399
Its the one guy, but I've heard two to four voices and all of them sounded very slav
>>15314425
One guy is South American, but he can sound pretty Eastern European
>>15314253
I met that legendary guy yesterday, I hope I can befriend him. My support sanae reach its maximum potential with his occasional davai and genuine praises.
>>15314361
I apparently sound British to everyone even though I'm from Eastern Europe
You just haven't gotten the chance to talk with others
>>15314399
It's not a real accent.
>>15314253
A game is up, if anyone is interested at this time
Monday night DotS time!
usual pass
Lobby at 5/10! Come play!
>>15294471
is satori OP here?
The curse is broken.
>Able to 100%-0% nearly any hero in the game given equivalent levels

>People call her Bad Sanae
>>15318770
>given equivalent levels
Supports are usually under leveld m80. Getting a free lane vs a piss poor laner doesn't happen every game
Is there anyway to spectate ongoing DotS games?
>>15318777
>Supports are usually under leveld
Only if they are not genius jungle stackers who whore xp tomes LIKE I AM
But fine I'll play roam support reimu just to prove to you bakas that red-white a gr8
>>15318810
Have someone on your friends list playing it, spectate his game
Other than that dunno how you would since starting the game takes it out of the lobby listing
Please be adults and not cry over people crying over the internet.
That's one game down the shitter thanks to 12 year old behavior.
>>15318920
was it the sakuya sapmmer hof
>>15319012
The who?
It doesn't matter anyways. The guy who started the bad vibe that match was in a bad mood from real dotka and apologized afterwards.
Tenshi is a very good basic utility hero.
reminder to be cute while playing dots!
>>15319175
I was very cute that game!
>>15319182i wasnt even involved in the games tonight, just got home. i just want people to have fun here
good job being cute, though!
No game tonight?
>>15320211
Tonight? Most people are on the US timezones and were playing five or six hours ago. If you're in SEA (or really anywhere significantly ahead of GMT), their pub scene is generally pretty active, but I can't speak for quality.
>>15320211
It's still afternoon here.
I usually get to play with /jp/ in about 8 hours from now
Who's up for early games today?
>>15322026
>early DotS
Yes fucking please. Just let me go shower real quick and I'm in.

Depends when. I'm sad my PudgeKunkka is so shitty. The boat crash deals like 500 damage on lvl3.. and in exchange slows you for an insane amount (including AS) for forever? If you ride it I guess. Talk about a piece of shit. Can't even crash on lvl1 for a gank.
>>15322026
Did I miss a game?
Had Deluge on top of the /jp/ firefox window so I didn't see the notification until now

Protip:
You don't have to ride the boat to crash it.

Not yet,just asking if peeps are up for an early game today.
I'm ready for some games even if it means I have to play with filthy ameriplebs and 9000 ping on USE.
>>15322315
Is USE that harsh for other yuros?
I'm fine ping-wise with pretty much every server regardless of the game aside from Oceania and SEA regions even though I'm a yuro myself.
Frames kinda drop to shit during ultfests, but other than that, it's pretty stable in USE for the few times I've managed to play with /jp/
>>15322332
For me it's okay, outside of spikes. It's like 100 "ingame ping". EU servers give like 30. So the "real" delay is probably like 130ms ish. You do quite feel that. There's way worse though, provided it doesn't spike.
>>15322332
I get almost 140 ping to USE
Lobby is up for us east.

I could play, but then I'd have to pause my JAV torrents.

Unfortunately I'm playing Sakura no Mori Dreamers right now, and don't really feel like joining you with my noob plays. Hope you get your games.
There's another lobby up by the way.

Amazing quality provided by valve servers.
That was a great game guys, thanks for coming today!
>>15329356
Murasa, crash your boat.
Thanks.
>>15329444
Can you build a fleet? That'd be kinda awesome.
>>15330066
No, if you cast a new boat it replaces the old one.
New lobby up.
Wow, this game can be fun when it's not a complete stomp, even if I didn't contribute much! Also sorry for that few minutes of afk near the end, that was my fault.
>That moment when you know the match is lost from the 5th minute and you have to play out a 40 minute match anyway
Nice games.
Why was marisa mad?
>>15331035
Because this guy >>15331017 wouldn't stop complaining the whole game with shit russian accent. And at the end he pretty much gave up, when we still had a chance. I seriously hate this kind of people.
