And im happy to see there going to address the readability of the game, not that I had a issue with it in the first place. And I think just like in the past you'll be able to connect with other servers in the full game, what there talking about is having friends list and convos between servers. Thats my take on it. | ||

I can't believe some of this stuff. Some of it's good to hear but others (lack of connection/friends internationally, no map auto-mirroring, no multiple-profiles, etc) I just don't understand. | ||

You will be able to create a fresh account on each gateway and play on EU, US and Korea. What you will not get is the information. like ladder stats etc etc. It will not be shareable between regions. Now, stop making shit up. EDIT: sorry for the bold text I hope you are correct. Please provide a source if you can find that post. | ||

seriously though, I'm glad we're getting chat channels.. I'm concerned about the latency being too high (240 ms) I'm also worried about not being able to watch replays together :I I'm sad that the high ground mechanic wasn't brought up.. | ||

If you can't change gateway then that really will be a problem, but I can't believe they would artificially do that for launch. There would be absolutely no point. It's probably just a misunderstanding as people have said. | ||

The speed of light is approx 300k km/sec That means you have an innate latency of 100 ms (as ping is roundtrip time) under _perfect_ conditions without any delays on any site with everything being fiber channel. In a real world scenario it would more likely be between 200 and 400 ms, with spikes making it even worse. Having cable internet in germany which is more or less the perfect connection type (20-30 ms eu.battle.net/europe.battle.net), my traceroute to asia.battle.net stops (as it is blocked then) at an average of 350 ms... That is unacceptable for competitive play. Unless you outsmart the speed of light, it will never be possible. Okay, you could optimize by putting the servers in the middle between the opponents, but that does not scale all over the place. | ||

Do you start to have an idea of what b.net 2.0 is gonna do with competitive play? I don't feel like going into a technical discussion about this, but every other competitive game had the option of playing against people all over the world, removing that is a big step backwards and ridicoulus | ||
