Jesus fing christ why do I keep reading bad stuff about what was supposed to be the best game ever?
And I mean the whole community seems to have more fun criticising the game that isnt even out yet than anything else.
At this point, basicly ANYTHING is a good reason not to buy the game. wtf?

We ran out of good stuff a few months ago, now we are criticizing the bad in hope that blizzard will take notice and do something about improving them.

Just because you criticize something doesn't mean you have to hate it, just that you want it to be better

The game itself is promising. But its Bnet portion is another story...

Well, when you have over a decade to get used to every single detail of a game and fall in love with each and every one, every deviation in the next game stands out like a sore thumb. A few of my friends were talking about d3 and the new UI, etc, recently and one of the first things someone asked: "Is there still a gem to activate?" 100% irrelevant aspect to the game that somebody (and probably multiple people) really want to see just for the nostalgia to keep it like d2.

I don't understand what they're so afraid of with chat channels in B.Net.

From what I see, blizzard gamers and the communities in general are the best of any gaming community in terms of maturity and constructive talking. Even the B.Net general forums, despite what many people on TL may say, are several steps above any other gaming forum i've seen.

The community as a whole is asking for open chat channels. I haven't met a single gamer who says otherwise. Just give them to us! Or give us an extraordinarily articulate reason as to why "[we] really don't want them."

If D3 B.Net is not noticeably improved from what it is in SC2, I really don't see myself playing D3 very long after release. Social is everything in online gaming, and, through their actions, Blizzard is actively trying to fail it's customers and community.
In order to move forward, we must rid ourselves of that which holds us back. Check out my stream and give me tips! twitch.tv/intotheskyy

I disagree, people get the wrong idea of blizzard gaming community because of how good the mods on TL keep out the trash. The average blizzard game fan is no different than your basic COD/Halo fanboi, in many cases they are one and the same, but I agree with the rest of your post. Blizzard's PR is getting worse everyday.

B.net is fine. 2.0 is far from as bad as *some* people make it out to be. And old B.net is far from as good as those same people make it out to be (especially).

Do you see "bnet 2.0" as an upgrade or a downgrade from it's ~14year old predecessor

Today in 2012, you can defeat the end boss without talking to a single person.

This This This This This. I remember talking to one of my friends how to make WoW decent again:

- No flying mounts.
- No dungeon finder.
- No raid finder.
- No achievements.
- Increased difficulty of dungeons. (The way they are now is a bad joke)
- No heirlooms.
- Pvp rewards are much more difficult to get.
- Arena system completely revamped again, only the best players should be able to get the best gear.
- Bigger rewards to exploring, grouping and World PvP.

Although guild chat would be kind of nice I'm really not worried about it for release or ever. Ive found plenty of good friends in both DII and SC2 with out your silly guild support.
Stay awhile and listen.

Why not just put them in and let the players have the option to use them or not? It's hard to believe they can't integrate it especially since SC2 already ironed out most of the technical kinks.

The real question though is which game will get guild/clan support first?
I used to be just like you, then I took a sweetroll to the knee.

Battle.net 2.0 is badly designed on so many levels. Warcraft3 battle.net is the best one they made so far except it has crazy delay and hackers. Starcraft2 battle.net sucks because they tried too hard to appeal to casual gamers without really understanding how gamers feel about their game.

I mean, why does Blizzard spend time making a patch to make losses invisible to people below master league? Don't they deserve to know where they stand, and see their improvements as master players do? Do they honestly think that hiding the losses in their record encourages them to continue playing?

It's just one example. Another one is Facebook integration. Everyone has FB but that doesn't mean they're willing to integrate them with Battle.net. I mean, what incentives are there to do that? So that your non-gaming FB friends know you play a video game? Instead, what they should have included is clan support.

And it's nearly impossible to whisper to people not on your friends list. Really? Battle.net 2.0 reminds me too much of XBox LIVE. Well, this is PC gaming. The major difference is that PC gamers have access to their full keyboards. Just add a common command like /w and the problem would be solved. But Blizzard is, for some odd reason, too scared to deviate from the current model, which is designed by people who worked on XBox LIVE. Why would they do that? Because they lost their touch with gamers

Just reminded me how friend lists in diablo 2 were just giant chat rooms with /f m command . I agree they should have common whisper commands like they have in wow where I can just type /w (friend who isn't in the game)

Disagree, we still do not know how Diablo III will be in the end. Focusing on the game, and not battle.net.
