They are beta testing the beta tester's patience.

To be announced how it went.

i'm getting the "infinite loop" also but after a couple of loops, i think windows 7 kills the entire updater program, not sure if this is good or bad.

dead horse beat:

Blizzard's DRM agenda sucks. Every time this happens, they'll alienate their customers, every last one of whom wants to be able to use obvious offline features of the game whenever the servers are down. This will especially be the case once we've all paid money for this game. They're great game developers, but the lack of LAN and offline play is cruel and unsympathetic. No amount of game-designing genius will make this feel any different than that, and the gamers, the real heart and soul of StarCraft II, don't care how much business sense it makes (as they shouldn't).

I wish they'd take a page from Valve's book and work on being both a AAA developer AND a great community supporter. It seems Blizzard's only goal really is money.

cheers
yeee

You realize the CEO of Activision-Blizzard is 100% evaluated on how much $$$ the company makes, right?

Google. China. Nuff said. Perfect example of a company putting an ideology before profits.

You can thank DRM rush to all the piraters and the big screw over Blizz got from StarCraft. Can you blame them for wanting to avoid illegal servers, pirated copies, and wanting to get rightfully deserved royalties for profiting off their game? Blizzard is a business they need money to operate
