Here are the pieces I pulled out of thier summery:

... according to senior vice president of game design, Pardo,.... has also revealed that the development team "don't have any plans to support LAN" (Local Area Networking), and clarified saying "we will not support it." This is an interesting statement, since the easy LAN functionality of the original game is one of the reasons it became so big in the first place. Current communities like iCCup, using StarCraft mods to host games are considered "pirate servers" by Blizzard, and Pardo wants to see those services shut down.


Sad sad day, and here I was hoping for a date for the beta

iccup has nothing to do with LAN, the only reason they'd take it out is because of things like Hamachi

Keep in mind that these are also the tidbits that *those* sites chose to pull out and report on. I say we wait and see what TL has to say and report before we go getting upset about it.

Well, they did hold private interviews with different sites. I guess they were the ones who asked that question, although it still sounds strange.. maybe they meant LAN latency?

I doubt even pathetic sites would choose to only report on old news.

Maybe the NDA was meant to stop people from talking about how they are removing LAN and want to shut down iCCup while everyone was paying attention.

Deep inside I was hoping that they are holding back the info about beta and they will anounce it later today,guess I was wrong and we have to wait like 6 months to actually see the game itslef.


"Well, it is important to note that while I personally witnessed these functions in the very newest build of Starcraft 2 at the Blizzard press conference last week, this is not the final product, nor even the beta, so things are subject to change. I highly doubt that any of these features will be taken out, but we’ll have to see"

they still havent sent out the beta keys to the people who qualified top 20 on the regional invitational ladders for wc3. I know me and a few other pros have not recieved it i did however receive an email awhile back from the blizzard e-sports team that the keys will be provided as beta approaches.
id like to think we would get them atleast a weeks notice. but we will see

That video was pretty cool, although when I saw the new sunken animation I thought it looked like an ostrich pecking things ahaha
Because when you left, Brood War was all spotlights and titans. Now, with the death of the big leagues, Brood War has moved to the basements and carparks. Now, Brood War is unlicensed brawls, lost teeth, and bloody fights for fistfulls of money - SirJolt
