fix the damn courier already

[JolyJew СлаваУкраине]

5 years.
this game already exists for 5 friggin years. and the courier is still a nightmare to control properly.

you just needed wards warn from an incoming gank, but suddenly you mid-laner clicked on the courer to deliver a bottle, aaand the courier instantly does a 180, and goes back to base, those wards.
you desperatly need a mekanism before the team fight starts but someone wanted some tangos so the courier leaves the base without your items at all. when it arives, you don't get your precious mek, team fight starts, you lose it. fun!

why can't the curier have a basic queu-up system?? why is so dumb and so painful to control??
it can be so simple: you click on courier, it delivers item. another player clicks on it while it's still en-route? instead of just changing it course completely like a brainless puppet, it QUEUES UP the order so when it returns to base, i can instantly make the next delivery! so simple, so easy to program!

3 players clicked the courier while it was en route? then the courier will load up on ALL of the players' orders, and dliver them all at once. so simple, so easy to prgoram

a player asks to get his items first becuase its urgent? just let the players click on a button and their priority will be in the bottom on the courier's delivery list. so simple, so easy to program.

SO WHY ISN'T IT IN THE GAME YET???
im so sick and tiered of delivers delayed by several minutes because couriers only took items for a single player, and im sick of all the times player need to type "reuse courier" to make sure the deliveries are not F'ed up.

Valve is lazy to do that, they are bussy with Card Game. These minor updates just a few cut bait for keep player don't complain about game.

Question, if your in the same lane as the guy that calls the cour and you need your items too and the cour is still in your base. With your system the cour will fly to your lane delever the item then go back to get your item.

[JolyJew СлаваУкраине]

umm no, when its still in base the items will be instantly loaded into the courier so when it makes a deilivery it will give to both players of that lane

Its 2018. Walk to base to get items. Using courier is for n00bs.

just let everyone has their own courier like in turbo. problem solved.

1. no more fights/ unecessary waits
2, more ppl buy courier skins for their own couriers

one stone two birds

The courier is another Dota2 specific feature to challenge the team work and communication skills of players in this dedicated team game.

this is difficulty just for the sake of being difficult, this adds no depth to the game whatsoever, just frustration.
this argument is stupid as hell

[mimizukari]

it DOES have a queue system. people have to press shift and then courier call button. Blame your team, not the game. there are many times where it's preferable to take cour.

[graystripe]

you can use tp scrolls to go back to base and buy your items.

i find it way far much more efficient since there is only 1 courier.

Because you don't have/appreciate the skill to share the courier in a proper way doesn't mean it isn't important for the game. Next thing you say is that last hitting is difficult only for the sake of being difficult but adds no depth to the game. It's just a Dota2 specific feature like the offside rule in soccer.

you've got to be trolling, no one can be this friggin stupid.

manging the courier is a UTILITY and not SKILL. the whole point of the courier is to have less hassle and easier item management. its not supposed to require skill or be difficult!

what's next?
remove map pings?
remove QWER hotkeys?

oh i know! remove AOE indicators! because you need skill and know the AOE of all abilties by yourself

if the courier was just for convenience, it wouldn't be able to be killed. it's supposed to be something you have to micromanage to use properly.

there are instances in fact where have the courier automatically take a route will lead to it being taken out as well

ok obviously the luxury of having a critter bring you the items from base needs to have SOME risk.
but something as basic as a queue up functionality is not one of them. ordering a delivery of a crucial item and noticng that 5 minutes later its still not here something that should not happen.
