Bam! You didn’t think we’d make it this week but who’s laughing now! (Probably you since you just got a sweet new Dota 2 update).
This might be our biggest update yet. Outworld Destroyer joins us this week, along with a ton of new features. Here are some highlights:
Added new game mode: Single Draft.
Added querying of dead units. This lets you click allied portraits in the top bar to inspect their items and skills, even when they’re dead.
Queued move commands show a waypoint flag briefly.
Added new settings panel.
Matchmaking displays average wait time for each region.
New interface for finding lobbies.
New Matchmaking panel.
Players can chat and use voice communications while the game is paused.
Added game mode (AP, SD, CM) selection for matchmaking.
You can now find replays by MatchID from the Watch panel.
Added Grid Mode to the Shop.
Added Repick functionality to the hero picking panel (costs 100 gold to repick, lets you select a hero again).
Implemented “Suggest invite to party” menu option.
You can now see which heroes your allies are about to pick.
Added Steam avatars in the scoreboard.
Added the ability to jump to any position in a replay.
This update will be available to the main Dota 2 client. The new Test Build release schedule will start next week.
