Dota 2 is a multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) game launched by Valve in 2013.

Players are divided into two teams, “ Radiant” in the southwest and “Dire” in the northeast. Normally, each player can only control one hero (character) in one of the teams, and then start a 5v5 battle. Each team has only one objective, i.e. to destroy the main building of the opposing team.

After the game starts, players must cooperate with teammates to upgrade their hero levels by killing monsters and enemy heroes, and earn money to buy more powerful equipment. When the hero upgrades by one level, the player can learn a new skill, strengthen the original skill, or choose a talent.

Players don’t have to worry about having no characters. In Dota 2, all heroes are free to choose. There are more than 100 heroes to choose from. Each hero has its own unique skills and operating system, and each hero’s style depends on their initial attributes — strength, agility, and intelligence.

After finishing the game, there will be a window showing the player’s record in this battle, the cosmetic items and experience gained, and there is a certain chance that players can get boxes or event collections.

Dota 2 has got 9 out of 10 “very positive” ratings on Steam platform. The game allows players to play for free, but makes money through the in-game shops.

The shop does not sell any items that break the game balance. Players can buy keys, decorations, game tickets and UI interfaces in the shop. They can also buy skins if they like to have their own appearance but are not willing to spend time collecting items.

However, there are also many items that cannot be bought in the shop, and some special equipment may be obtained only by watching the game on the spot or buying tickets for live games. Players also have a chance to get special items while watching the game.

Another feature of Dota 2 is the workshop, which allows players to upload their art work to Valve at any time. As long as more players like your creation, your work will have the opportunity to be listed and sold, and you can have a share of the revenue.

In addition, the game integrates voice chat system, allowing players to talk to each other without relying on third-party software during the game. This feature is enabled by default in the game, but players can also mute players they do not like.

Dota 2介紹

Dota 2是一款由Valve 于2013年推出的多人在线战斗竞技场游戏(MOBA,multiplayer online battle arena)。

玩家被分为两队,分别是西南方的「天辉」与东北方的「夜魇」,通常每个玩家只能控制其中一队中的一名英雄(角色),之后展开5v5对战,并以摧毁对方队伍阵地主堡为胜利条件。

游戏开始后,玩家要与队友合作,通过击杀怪物和敌方英雄等来提升自身角色等级,并赚取金钱来购买更加强大的装备。当英雄每升一级时,玩家可以学习一个新技能、加强原有的技能或选择天赋。

玩家不必担心没有角色的问题,在Dota 2中所有英雄都是免费选择的,有总共超过100个英雄任君选择。每名英雄都有各自独特的技能和操作体系,每名英雄的战斗方式取决于他们的初始属性 — 力量、敏捷以及智力。

在游戏胜利之后,会跳出结算视窗,显示玩家在这场战斗中的战绩,获得的饰品与经验,也有一定的机率会获得饰品或是箱子或是活动收集物等。

Dota 2在Steam平台上获得9分的“极度好评”评级。游戏采取免费模式,但就通过商城赚钱。

商城中没有贩售任何破坏平衡的道具,玩家可以在商城内购买商城贩售的种类有开箱子的KEY、装饰品、比赛门票和UI介面等,也可以让喜欢外观又不喜欢花时间收集的玩家购买皮肤。

但是,也有很多物品是在商城中买不到,有些特殊装备可能要透过现场看比赛或购买在线比赛门票来获取。玩家在观看比赛时,还有机会获得特殊饰品。

Dota 2还有一个吸引人的地方,就是工作坊,让玩家随时上传自己作品给Valve,只要越多玩家喜欢你的创作,就有机会上市贩卖,并得到收入分成。

另外,游戏整合语音交谈,让玩家在游戏期间可不依赖第三方语音软件对话,此功能在游戏中语音默认打开,但玩家也可以把自己不愿听到的玩家的语音屏蔽。
