By the way guys, completely different teams of people are working on the game itself and B.Net. It is very likely that the latter has been concentrating on the various features for D3, such as the Real Money Auction House, and will be for some time.

The Battle.Net team hasn't done squat since Blizzard fired most of them during the great "cleanup". Practically every key position regarding Battle.Net is now vacant and needs urgent replacement according to:Blizzards job directory

Huh, thats in a way encouraging - here's to hoping they don't hire another Xbox Live dev to replace the old one.

UI developers are one of the most sought after people in the game industry, there are few and finding good ones is even harder. Blizzard really must not have been satisfied to let those go.

TBH I really hope its that hots is being delayed until late 2k13. WOL is going quite swimmingly. There's a few balance things that need to be sorted out (tvp lategame), but overall its really fun to watch and play.

I mean, they are even looking for a lead designer for Battle.Net. This is the guy that is suppose to have the overall plan for Battle.Net like goals and vision with what they want to achieve with Battle.Net as a service and what is needed and what to work on. Imagine if Blizzard would kick Dustin Browder during the development of Starcraft II. This is what has happened with the Battle.Net team.

They really should not be satisfied. It looks good, but still lacks features.

To be honest, I don't think Blizzard likes the negativity around battle.net 2.0 at all after they hyped it up so much and now try to get actual good people. That's my guess at least.

Here's to hoping for D3 open. That would kill.

Wait wait wait...
So, who said that they going to announce anything today?
Doesn't the link from the first page direct you to some of their buisseness annual summary or whatever? Earnings? Profits? Kotick's lube cream usement?

Can someone link to an actual quote, that they will announce whatever today?

Oh cool. I mean poor guys that got fired. But they really released a mess in regards to BNET 2.0. Hopefully this means that a BNET rehaul is in the works.

E: Oh and my guess is that it will be probably a HOTS Beta. Lasting one year leading to 2013 release.
