Their priority is to make sure their stockholders make money, not answering the demands of whiny balance. The more you whine, the more they make money coz you are more intrigued and interested about the game. Don't get me wrong, I love and support blizzard and sc2 and other games. I play the game and and having fun out of it. Not basing my gaming experience to some shitty balance. Its just another video game. People saying playing sc2 is their passion. LOL . bunch of hypocrites. Not unless your one of the people behind the sc2 staff, or (as a player) committing 90% of your time training for tourney for big $$$ (which is the so-called pro community). | ||

LAN, on the other hand, only segregates players by encouraging in-house play, as it's preferable to train with other pros and with 0 latency. - Ghostface When pro players ladder online in Starcraft 2, you would have to actually be crazy to think they are actually trying. For players like EGIdrA, etc, you really only see them ladder to boost mechanics, and by being so inherently better than their competition on the ladder, they win by default. To me, it seems that ladder is a good system that is simply convenient as it is "always there" for them to keep their mechanics fresh. When players are actually wanting to practice strategy and work on builds / develop new builds they do play these while in an "in-house" setting, through custom games. That is why when you see Deezer, CombatEX, or even Destiny, or other 'Matchmaking heroes' if you will, triumph on ladder, they still can't consistently place in a tournament setting like these people on major teams with the in-house training advantage. With all this said, I actually support LAN-focused practice, because through and through players are able to reach their peak this way. I honestly believe that a Flash, Jaedong, or even Bisu of BW could ever be crafted from a setting which comprises of solely ladder matches. On a completely separate note, Blizzard's idea of adding LAN support solely for the use of major tournaments: GSL, MLG, etc. is a completely fruitless objective, and I'll tell you why. Does anyone ever have the experience of playing in an online setting in any game and then switching to one in LAN? LAN is beautiful because of the good latency, however, when faced with a good latency when one is used to bad latency on a regular basis, they are now in a new environment. It takes extensive practice to be prepared for an environment, if one wants to be playing while comfortable. If this does get implemented, then the LAN tournament setting's advantage will be with those who frequent tournaments, making the "already good" players have an edge. To me, if a person cannot have practice in the setting in which they will be competing for significant sums of prize money, I vote that the 'limited' LAN system not even be implemented, and as much as I love the idea of a LAN feature, it truly hurts to say that. | ||

In 1v1, this is 100% useless except in tournament matches (which could be caused by a computer crash or something else as well, so even then it's of somewhat minimal value). Are you going to make your opponent wait more than the already long 1 minute in order for you to finish a 1v1? What if they've already queued up another game while you took the time to reconnect? It seems very pointless. In team games, more often than not players leave because they are eliminated or are behind or see the game as over. It's pretty rare for a player to actually have been disconnected and dropped. I'm not saying it doesn't happen, but it happens in maybe once per 20+ team games I've played. In custom multiplayer, it seems to be more important, simply because custom games for one reason or another have a lot of players just getting dropped randomly. In that case, yes - having reconnect options would be good. But to be honest, as it is now, SC2 custom games aren't even remotely worth reconnecting to. WC3 had DotA, and it was a pretty damn good game. I don't see SotIS being anywhere near as good. It's since improved from when I last played it, but it's still a bad game. Of course, when a good mutiplayer game DOES come up, then it'll be nice to say, "thank God we implemented reconnecting like 2 years ago right?" | ||

That is why there are utilities that permit "LAN" violating TOS, because games are peer-to-peer, not client-server like most FPS games. Otherwise games here on latin america would be horrible, as our latency to the US is huge. | ||

The community WANTS eSports to be huge. The community WANTS enhanced Battle.net features and support. The community WANTS StarCraft 2 to be the "end all, be all" RTS. But based on Blizzard's actions lately, I think it's obvious that they couldn't care less about what the community wants. They're just a bunch of closed-minded developers who think they know best and claim that they're working on future support, but we still see no results from it. Yes, you do the hard part, Blizzard. You make the game. None of us could do that. But for the love of God... could it kill you to add a few highly demanded features every once and a while?! Oh yeah, and not just wait every 2-year expansion pack to release them?!! | ||

Actual games are peer-to-peer. Clients need conection with b.net servers but they don't send every command to them. If you play through bnet with a friend that's on your same network, it will use the shortest path to send the packets. That means that if both are on the same network you will have low latency. That is why there are utilities that permit "LAN" violating TOS, because games are peer-to-peer, not client-server like most FPS games. Otherwise games here on latin america would be horrible, as our latency to the US is huge. I'm sorry, but your whole post is just factually incorrect. The game data runs through battle.net. If it was actually how you just said, nobody would be complaining. | ||

Considering that there is next to no information on Blizzard's plans for replay sharing, I don't think there are any answers for that question atm. Under the current system of replay-watching, it wouldn't be possible considering that players have to log out of B.net in order to watch outdated replays. Whatever new system that they're building needs to address this issue. | ||

I love spectating high level matches of this game more than sports or almost any other event, and it sucks to know the creators of said game are the #1 hindrance in that potential being reached. | ||
