srsly rito? xd

and some insight from a General Discussion overlord

They're doing this because of Riot's handling of the Sandbox mode idea.

Seriously, the backlash was pretty wide, and I'd be surprised if other game devs didn't hear about it.

Smite's devs are doing the right thing and taking advantage of Riot's weakness.

But for real. This is a smart business move on Smites part.

It is. Seeing plenty of dissatisfied moba players in other games leaving or at least wanting to, the attack strategy to pick them up most effectively would be to focus on the transition from noob to ranked. A whole new map/mode just to help people learn the game???? that is enough to get me to check the game out...and im perfectly happy with league, i can only imagine what people that are dissatisfied right now would think when they see that.

its pretty much the same reason why riot dosen't have 2 severs. They makes up bs for reason why they can't. Dota 2 has 2 severs and has less players.

Ghostcrawler said there are genuine considerations of a sandbox mode currently. Nothing official, but they hear us and it's a start.

Good lord lay off of them already, they already said they'd consider it after everyone through a tantrum.
