The announcement of Dota 2 shouldn't proceed with a flounce, but rather through definite intervals and limited capacities for gamers to avoid maximum occupancy rates for Valve's servers. It will be possible to enqueue, where - allegedly - one might get through pretty fast and where people already in queue are notified via e-mail. Noteworthy is also the approach to new gamers: with the last patch, Valve has expanded the beginners' campaign which does not only contain one mission, but a series of rather time-consuming missions. Beginners are now introduced to this game in an efficient way.
Further preparations have been taken care of for a fluent release of Dota 2 - recently ago, server capacities in Stockholm, Luxembourg, Korea and also west of the USA have been expanded. It is now expected, that around 450.000 more gamers can be logged in at the same time, which raises the maximum number to 800.000 gamers.
