Do you guys like the being able to hide behind terrain? Do you like the watch towers? I am curious if you guys went and threw a hissy fit when that was announced too. The only thing I have been disappointing about other then beta not being released was the no replays online at launch. Otherwise I haven't heard anything disappointing yet but you all here have for some weird reason. You guys don't like the new higher ground way or nothing so I'm wondering what do you like? I don't hate the new high ground, but I don't like that there's no advantage for the person on high ground if the other player has vision :S Anyway, I like 90% of SC2, but why shouldn't I complain about the 10% I want to see changed?

So basically give people the ability to create a public channel. It would be nice to have some kind of public channels... Like "General Chat", "2v2", "1v1", etc. Basically, channels you can go to for finding AT partners or people for your custom game etc. | ||

But I think we should try to just keep our faith... watever is left of it anyway. Get on vent pause replay at 2 minute mark and countdown. | ||

And I don't really get how everyone here freaks out like that, you can still create chat rooms that works just the same as channels just that while there are some public channels there are no public chat rooms but the chat rooms follows you into games and such and you can have more than one open at a time. So basically, you play a game with someone you like, you start to talk and you either join his buddies room or create a new one/whatever just like how you would join a channel if you just met someone. The only thing missing is the public channels, but those will be added later as said. This isn't a huge deal. | ||

That being said, taking it out for no reason is also stupid... So, even though I don't care much I have to be a little disapointed in Blizzard | ||

DoW 2 has no chat channels system and it makes for a lonely experience. This is precisely how I feel about it. I played the DoW beta, clicked the multiplayer button and... nothing. Just like 3 buttons: play auto-match game, play custom game, create custom game. Soooooooo empty :S And public channels ARE useful - if you have a really basic question, popping by your national channel and asking it is perfect. If you need someone to AT with? Again, useful. Klockan, as far as I understand it, those channels you can create are only for people on your friendslist? I want to be able to create channels everyone can join, like all the clan channels in SC and WC3. There have been tonnes of gaming channels throughout SC's history: Brood War Kor-Namomo - back in the day, this was IT for finding good players to play (hah, I randomly got to obs fOru dozing a terran back when I was just starting ^^) Brood War Kor-Nexus - Teamplay channel. Brood War Ladder - Teamplay channel op 3.33- - Much like kor-namomo, but a bit later. I don't really remember what the others were, because once namomo sort of died, the gaming channels switched more regularly. op ToT) on europe of course. Anyway, I think I've made my point. | ||

*Waits a few seconds* No, I'm serious. Blizzard is a big company now, and I think it's run by people who know what they are doing. Even if they don't have public channels, you can just go and meet up with some people in-game and if you like them then friend them. Rather than go to the channel, think he's a cool guy and friend him, only to see that he's not the B- player he told you he was. | ||
