Question about the "Players Near You" feature...

Zamiel United States211 Posts February 20 2013 06:02 GMT #1 Gonna post this in Blogs since it's probably not thread-worthy. Unless I'm mistaken, the "Players Near You" feature should be implemented within Wings of Liberty now with the latest patch (as of Feb. 20th, 2013). I'm interested in finding players that are near me. How do I do this? I've explored the Battle.net UI to no avail... Plz halp.

I'm not sure if it has any purpose unless the people you are looking for live inside your house from what I've read.
