Is it possible that they just didn't include it now and will add that in in the final product? (wishful thinking)

it's possible a similar function would be added into Battle.net... (speculation: just so they can make sure every player has their own legit cd key)

No LAN from their perspective is probably to reduce piracy and stop siblings from playing the same copy together at home, and buying one each. Too bad LAN is awesome. Will Battle.net2 latency be an issue now?

First Person View
You know how sometimes if you’re watching an OSL game they will do a fancy animation and then you will be seeing the first person view (what they are seeing on their own screen) of one of the players? Where you can watch their screen flicker rapidly between sections on the map, watch them frantically macroing or deftly microing their units? Well you guessed it. An observer in a Starcraft 2 game will be able to watch any players’ FP View at any time.

What if you want to LAN SCII without internet? or simply the internet is down on said LAN?

I was at the meeting, and they didn't say anything about LAN one way or the other that I heard. Either they have another source of info or it's just a rumor...

Although they did tell us that we were playing a pretty rough version, so maybe they were thinking about something else that just hadn't been included yet.

Here's a fun tidbit, though...

We fucking played it on LAN at Blizzard HQ

I'm of this moment not going to buy SCII sadly, no LAN option, no copy.

That is going to be an awesome feature, no doubt about that.

Btw where is TL's report?

Or maybe you were on Battle.net2 alpha and didn't know it.

The most disappointing part of this was no Beta date.

NO lan? Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I hope it's a false rumor, god I play like almost every day with my friends on LAN at school, between breaks. FFS, I hope they aren't doing something stupid now. I can understand for d3, to make it harder to hack, but Starcraft?? *hulk rage*
I hate the post below mine because it feels War3-ish.

In SC you even had an installation that allowed you to play with specific other copy with the same ID. It did not stop SC from being one of the most successful games. Anyway if there would be no LAN = no progaming (at least vastly limited) = less copies sold.

I can't believe Blizzard embargoed slightly more detailed information about features we already knew about. Instead of getting a Beta date, we find out they removed LAN. This was so not even close to being worth the anticipation. This whole event just makes me a bit less excited, and very disappointed.
