In IceFrog's latest blog he posted a new development update regarding the upcoming DotA 6.68. As we know, IceFrog is very keen to release a perfect balanced version along with the balanced heroes so, He asked for the suggestions from DotA community to help with him in this new version. He also mentioned that, he will come up with DoTA 6.68 Preview Video in which he will highlight the new content & changes which we will see in 6.68.
Update #1:
The Dota 6.68 Preview video gets delayed.
Here is what IceFrog said in his own words:
I am still working hard on 6.68. We plan to release a preview video in the near future to showcase some of the new content. There are quite a few new heroes in development so we are taking extra time to make sure they are high quality. There will also be balance work done for the current content as well various other improvements and features.
If there is anything you'd like to see in the next patch, please let me know.
So guys, It looks like IceFrog wants to come with a complete and balanced version and of course new stuff (Heroes, Items, Cosmetics etc.). Be ready to experience something new in DotA 6.68, Preview video is coming soon!

HI,ICEFROG. Dota Maps AI is under developing, i hope you can find someone to make it. i heard that HON is growing now so i suggest if you could make Dota maps more graphic and heavier.i really enjoy Dota as a fun game to play and i and Dota players also want to have AI maps sooner to practicing at home.Thanks for your 6.68 you done a good job and also make Dota player have fun with it. Thank you for your support.
ReplyDeleteyay.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait for Dota 6.68
ReplyDeleteAnd the new hero Icarus!
Nero
we want new item and the balancing of the heroes and is clearly the new hero who all wait the much time!
ReplyDeletewhat? a video, That sounds cool!
ReplyDeleteby the way, anyone knows about the upcoming heroes except Icarus, the phoenix?
it is making me so excited about the dota 6.68 plzz release it soon !! cant wait !!
ReplyDeleteummm icefrog can u pls make the graphics for dota better alittle as i heard that hon is growing n dota might lose alot of players...
ReplyDeletelol autistic and retards
ReplyDeleteI heard there are three heroes in this map
ReplyDelete1. icarus, the phoenix
2. thrall the far seer
3. krakko the fire panda
noob the peasant
ReplyDeleteum...dota cant get more graphic heavy than it already is if it is to be hosted on the wc3 platform..for it to be as good as HoN it needs to switch to a new platfrom and a hell lot of codes must be re-written to accomodate better graphics..
ReplyDeletealthough i wud really like to see a very balanced antimage...hes a bit nerfed now..and a bit too item dependent
For the first Anonymous let me tell you something , DotA's graphic are based on Warcraft III TFT and not the map itself!
ReplyDeletesuppose make a the brother of zeus like a hades and poseidon hehe i hope make a new hero like this when to amek toher new maps
ReplyDeleteKrakko the fire panda??? is that represents the last panda completing the three pandas (including Storm Spirit n Pandaren Brewmaster)?? anyway, please make all the heroes use their skill ( Tauren Chieftain, Razor, Murloc Nightcrawler, Ancient Apparition, etc..).. W all know this is requiring a lot of work.. but still we can wait for it... 6.68 - new chapter of Dota - DOTA RULE!!
ReplyDeletecan't wait..^^
ReplyDeletestill w8ng!
ReplyDeleteZZZZ I really want to see the new heroes skills
ReplyDeletei will w8 for it!!
ReplyDeletezomfgwtfuberftwsmgpwnbbqsauce ^^
ReplyDeletebtw, DotA is NOT dying..... WTF
Make a hero like a boxer, or mike tyson
ReplyDeleteICEFROG please put the extinct heroes back into the game just need to balance them.
ReplyDeleteyeah ice frog maybe u can ask help from others to make DOTA MORE ATTRACTIVE like hon better grphics or something like that a lot would be greatful to help u out !
ReplyDeleteToo excited about Icarus!!! In the next versions i hope there is another hero like invoker with lots of skills!!!
ReplyDeletewow
ReplyDeletei hope dota doesnt get high detailed graphics cuz i kinda think thats what separates it from HON cuz all HON has is different named heroes and items
ReplyDeleteNormal Detailed Graphics ( Warcraft III, Starcraft ) = High Speed Game. Very Good To Control.
ReplyDeleteHigh Detailed Graphics ( Starcraft II, HON ) = Maybe Other Players Will Comment In The "Macro" Thing. Because It Will Affect The Game Speed.
Let ICEFROG just to decide what is right to his game. he is just asking for hero,balance,changes. not the graphics though.. hope we all enjoy the new 6.68Version of DOTA.. :)
u talk too much!! All nonsense!!
ReplyDeletedota is FREE unlike HoN it has to be payed $30 and the graphics i think cannot ba changed unless they make warcraft4 sooooooooo excited
ReplyDeleteby the way making a skill like far sight is usles coz in a game 7-10 players are using MH
ReplyDeleteMANABARS!
ReplyDeletelol you can't make dota better graphics. wc3 is still OUTDATED...if he wants to make better dota graphics. he has to make a dota game, like HoN, not with wc3....which cost money etc...
ReplyDeletecaaaaaannnnnnnnnntttttttttt w888888
ReplyDeletewhat is wrong with you people, HoN is something and DoTA is something else. better graphics doesn't mean better game. I preferred DoTA over HoN just because of the simple classic graphics... to be honest I am afraid the DoTA will have new graphics after its a stand alone game.
ReplyDeletebut who knows, change could be good.
HoN Is Nice But Dota Is Better..So I Alway Support Dota
ReplyDeleteAdd Oil (Mobile) lol k IceFrog ILOVE U
HON is more fun than dota
ReplyDeletei wish the new hero are the brothers of zeus and i hope that is well balance...........
ReplyDeleteMake diffusal available for level THREE!!!!
ReplyDeletemake scepter graphics effect for pudge too!!!
;)
ReplyDeletei'm waiting 6.68 release !!!
ReplyDeletehey i want thrall to be a new hero 'coz he's cooL.
ReplyDeleteIF please make a lifesteal item for range heroes that is not orb effect like "Vladimyrs" for melee
ReplyDeletedota hv dota de grafic.. don take it compare wif hon.. even dota grafic is worse than hon.. but dota is the best!!
ReplyDeleteicefrog HoN is developing so much... i seen this HoN extreme its free to play server and more heroes added... its seems only 1 hero is copied its king leoric and the other 5 heroes was their original... i says that they will make it better because they want to have more players so they make it free to play...
ReplyDeleteDota is my life... HON wth is tat?
ReplyDeleteice frog i wish to create more dota AL maps or some one else to make them and increase dota graphics make it more cool becaouse some people was playing dota and now they are playing HON cause of all the graphic so make it more interesting please and more cool and in the last map please delete Ursa Warrior from heros he is too imba and ty :)
ReplyDeleteDont lose to Heroes of NewerTh
ReplyDeleteIcefrog!!!
HON members left it becouse you must pay to play a lot people dont play any more
ReplyDeleteI like HON better HAHAHAHAHA!!!!! DOTA graphics? HEHEHEHEEH!! DOTA compared to HON? so FAR!!HAHAHAHA!! I'm not satisfied with the graphics that u should create an online DOTA game with developed graphics..not just sticking on that GG.....HON still win the ratings so hurry up and develop the game>>>HAHAHAHA!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteBEST REGARDS from S2 Games
Heroes Of Newerth dont lose to Defence Of The Ancients...
ReplyDeleteHON is developing...hurry create your own original, best game ever!!!!!! dnt lose to them... they let me pay so i go for DOTA..DOTA rocks 6.68!!!HAHAH
ReplyDelete-JAMES S. Alpas-
I'll remember u in the name of ICEFROG
heroes of newerth is now having more players than dota allstars, other say's dota is "boring".
ReplyDeletei hope there's a ANTI-MAPHACK device!!! think about NO MapHack? i think More Fun if there's no MAP HACK in the Game !!!
ReplyDeleteWE filipinos are so lucky, HoN is going to garena for free :)) no need to pay $30
ReplyDeleteTHERE WON'T BE A VERSION WITH PERFECT BALANCE
ReplyDeleteIT'S ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO HAVE A PERFECTLY BALANCED VERSION OF DotA!!
I'LL PRAISE THE VERSION IF IT'S PERFECTLY BALANCED
syala lala lala,
ReplyDeletewhen?
lots of new hero and new skills is all i want for 6.68
ReplyDeleteis there 5 new heroes?
ReplyDeletei heard it on youtube
hey ice frog. you should make more different skills in the new patch skills that u can aim urself . i thought of 1 skill that when u click it the hero goes underground and in those sceconds he can move underground. maybe a run away skill . or a attack skill when it hits another hero underground then maybe a stun or dmg or push back . i think that its very important to have different unique skills . thats why so many ppl use potm or butcher cause their skills are funny and different. plz look into this tq .
ReplyDeleteHades is Sf and Poseidon maybe kunkka ?
ReplyDeleteIn my opinion a good new item would be one whith some proprieties like enchanters Untouchable first skill. That will be a good balance item against imba heroes in the late game like troll, mortred, sladar etc
ReplyDeleteumm...im really hoping that u can balance out SLARK...hes honestly too imbalanced...hope u can make him more like a real hero...
ReplyDeleteuhmmm
ReplyDeleteIcefrog..can u be efficient??6.68 version need more than 3months?
ReplyDeleteicefrog can u make the dota graphics like Hon so they will not play HON
ReplyDeletewiw. . .
ReplyDeletenewbs move on to HoN cause pros pwn them very bad AND that is why all my friends say - HoN - newb game with only newbs and DotA - the chance to find some DECENT players are 413481239210321948217532145275831294 times more than in HoN(overall HoN suckz c**k compared to DotA) hon - NO ORB EFFECT STACKING(which is the lamest thing ever) so yeah - skady+satanic+s&y+desolator+mjollnir=all proc -.- so yeah, hon SUCKS
ReplyDeletedota - WAY MORE BALANCED and yeah, hon sucks :D
peace:-)
ReplyDeleteSlark ain't imbalance. Just get dust/ward and he is as useless ass hell. Unless, if someone doesn't want to but dust/gem/wards then, good luck! ^_^
ReplyDeleteI THINK D NEW AGI HERO LOOKS LIKE CHEN BUT BLACK WOLF
ReplyDeleteI THINK SLARK IINT IMBALANCE BUT I THINK IT WILL ON 68 WILL IT BE?
nah HON is for stupid people. DOTA is simpl the best :)
ReplyDeletewhen is it releasing??.........i want to check out the new features.........
ReplyDeletePS--- HON SUCKS PUDGE..........DOTA AND ICEFROG RULE THE GAMING UNIVERSE
HON IS JUST AN UPGRADED COPY OF DOTA .. THE CONCEPT SOME HEROES .. THEY JUST GAVE IT BETTER GRAPHICS .. BUT I LIKE DOTA MORE.!!! CHEEEEEEERS FOR DOTA.!!! &&& ICEFROG.!!
ReplyDeleteeven though DOTA's graphics cannot be "UPGRADED" original is still BEST am I right.!??
ReplyDeletei want to see 6.68 so mauch.....
