Maybe just still bug :p It seems to be a placeholder for plans for Global Play. http://www.reddit.com/r/starcraft/comments/12fqpk/i_saw_this_on_the_hots_login_screendoes_this_mean/ | ||

There will be no lan and stop require it. PC industry already isn't a good place for games, some developers already started make games X-Box exclusives, or move to F2P/all-time Internet connection, because piracy. Stop want it please | ||

Now that they have an XP system they are not as concerned about this concept, because even with a loss you gain XP. So casual players will still have a sense of achiemenment and be more likely to continue playing. This is one of the reasons why the addition of XP is good for everyone. (Good for new players/casuals because they get a sense of achievement even if they loose. Good for Diamond players because they can see their win/loss again). That but mainly because you get XP from playing non-ranked as well. So you are not forced to play Rank to enjoy the full game. | ||

Stop want it please My brain is so full of derp right now, LAN can only do good. . . A form of lan already exists so making it official wouldn't change much other than the awareness and usage. WoL has been pirated since its beginnings. | ||

It's been pirated but you don't get access to multiplayer iirc. | ||

They should at least release LAN exclusive for big tournaments like MLG... I mean seriously. They're probably working on UI a lot, though, so they have a sufficient excuse not to do it for the moment. | ||

I think I heard on Inside the Game that Blizzard does have a portable LAN server that is available for tournaments, and that it might have been used at the WCS Asia Finals. I don't know when they started having it, but apparently any big tournament can ask for it as long as they hire someone to guard it or something. | ||
