Not being able to create a game name is because "spammers" is obnoxious. Imagine if you wanted to play public dota and you got into the game and the host just randomly put -apem when half wanted -rd and the other half wanted -arem because that is what we have right now in popular games such as mafia. Most warcraft 3 players would run 1v1 obs games all day too, and game names are important for this... Oh and warcraft 3's tournament everything>>>> sc2s, not to mention it SHOULD NOT count towards your 1v1 ladder. I'm not sure how the sc2 system works, but I assume you'd be able to see the settings before you enter a game. Those -rd things you are talking about are game settings I guess?  haven't played wc3. It could be annoying if the host start changing key settings after you join though, but then you need a malicious host, that just as easily could misrepresent the game name in war3.1 on 1 OBS is important, but that is easily solvable by making a 1 on 1 OBS arcade map, no? You can't indicate level I guess, but then you can start making different arcade maps called "1on1 OBS diamond" or something. Not the neatest solution maybe... I haven't played the sc2 tournaments, but how were the wc3 ones better/different? At first glance, I don't see why they shouldn't use your tournament performance when they estimate MMR, care to elaborate? | ||

In any case, I don't personally care much anyway as long as I can find my friends, invite them to party and click "find match". | ||

They could even offer various interfaces to choose from fror differente peoples' tastes. In any case, I don't personally care much anyway as long as I can find my friends, invite them to party and click "find match". It's a big deal for sc2 because it was crap before. I haven't seen anyone praising blizzard for their new groundbreaking revolutionary UI, but more like "this should have been there at launch, but better late than never". I don't think it'll affect me much either, but apparently some people use the chat and arcade a bit more than we do. So good for them!  | ||

Currently, the chat does feel a bit clunky. Maybe they can just copy from whatspp or some other chat app to. | ||

I have to agree with this. I really hope the ingame interface gets a new look too, because right now if someone tunes into a sc2 stream, you can't tell the difference between HotS and LotV (if there are no units on the map etc...). | ||
