I wish there was some place with just screenshots of the heroes. I'm not familiar with it at all to be able to tell what they are. The main Dota2 page where you download the files doesn't have it. Some of the zips have a screenshot in there of the base model and the character with the base equipment. That's mighty useful, but only a handful have it.
Hey I found this online model viewer for most of the characters if people are unsure of what they all look like. Its pretty cool for some quick browsing.
As a way of showing support for the 3D game art community and Polycount, Valve has decided to give an additional 5% of revenue from all Polycount Contest items sold on the Dota 2 store to Polycount.com. They know we’re looking to do some large updates to Polycount and the 5% revenue of Valve’s earnings will enable us to do just that. Thank you Valve for the support!
(Important note: This 5% is not taken away from the Polycount Dota 2 Contest Winners share, but rather taken from Valve’s share as a donation to Polycount. Everyone wins!)
sometimes i think valve is too awesome to be real - like those that say shakespeare couldn't possibly have written all of that and it must have been multiple people.
so it's official.
valve can't possibly exist in the same world as snaketakes. you are all delusional!
wow...i go on steam to get the spectator client - but when i get to the dota 2 page It says i already own it.
I had started the survey to get the beta - but i don't remember ever finishing it. Haven't really played MOBA's much...apparently i ended up getting in.
lol it says you already own it cause that's their way of enabling the spectator client. They just put that version up and unlocked it globally so anyone can download it. What you're downloading is the spectator client.
