Nah, but it must not be true. You guys REALLY want chat rooms?

chat rooms are soooo 2002. C'mon.


Hilarious.

I've already spent a ton of money on games in the Steam Store. Never have I bought anything from the Blizzard store.

I might actually go over to the Valve Store and make a few purchases there... using money that would have likely gone to SC2.

Ridiculous, Activision-Blizzard. Public statements like that? Please.

Reinforces my decision not to ever play SC2. I hope the rest of the community follows suit.

Ok im getting real tired of arguements like this. Blizzard would not send people here. Thats not how they operate.

Yes Blizzard has been feeding us bogus answers. Whether these are half truths or lies ill leave for others to debate.


But the reasons for the changes are pretty simple. It all boils down to money.


No chat channels = less investment risk = more money

No cross realm = less pirating/kespa = more money
OR
No cross realm = more purchases of the game = more money
OR
No cross realm = delayed feature because x-realm doesnt make blizzard more money

Even if there is a "cracked" patch or something that would have a chatroom, LAN, Private server similar to Iccup, I still don't think I would buy it because the money would still be going to a company that doesn't care about the people who do want those things in their game. I really hope blizzard fixes Sc2 in a year or so.

As much as we've butt heads in this thread, I'm totally on board with you now. It's been a fruitful discussion, I feel, so cheers.

#1, #4 are totally true, I feel.

#2 is a little wrong. Should read "No LAN = Less pirating/kespa = more money".

#3 honestly truly honestly I promise you not true

Now "more money" is not the only reason. I think they also think that the game is better all-around the way it is, but of course they're in it to make money, so they're making the best-cost decisions they can while making the game to their standards of excellence.

Eh... buying additional copies of the client has been put for by Blizzard as the likely solution for playing across regions.

I mean its almost like they are saying "yeah, we have cross region play, it costs extra, stop bothering us about it".
... Still like Brood War better... lol

Guys, there is really one option to show how dissatisfied you are:

DONT BUY THE GAME!

Seriously.
At least wait with the purchase.
What blizzard is doing nowaday its ridiculous! They are in total disconnect with the players.
We want LAN, we want chat, we want xrealm, yet their tone in latest interviews and forum posts are unbelievably arrogant.

I dont know what to think since it seems they want to reinvent the fkin wheel!?

This interview ringed a bell in me tho.
I simply cant believe that this attitude the guy showed is real. I mean, could it be that Blizzard had enough? Could it be that they dont feel Activisions hand on their neck so comfortable anymore and try to FUCK UP the game(bnet) themselves?

Dont know, but what is a fact: i wont buy the game at release like many people that i know on the intranetz.

Two things you can do:

Don't buy the game, and do your best to bring down its various meta ratings. Give it 1 star on Amazon and everywhere else. Believe it or not making a significant dent in the meta-ratings really does mean something. You can be sure if SC2 comes out to ratings of ~80% or lower someone will take notice, because that will cost them sales.

I thought the new B.NET system was supposed to be something of exhilarating uniqueness? When it comes down to it, it really looks like an X-Box live halo interface look-a-like. Product of hard work? please....

Agreed, I didnt see that earlier post. But what i feel like they did, they had all these unfair and shitty plans for the future, forced the Starcraft community to fall in love with SC2 then turn around and throw shit in our faces. I'll end with this even Hitler was fair in the beginning of his reign.

Stop spouting incorrect facts.

There is lag and latency issues for cross-play @ HoN.

I myself have experienced it multiple times (I'm Euro) Playing on ANY non server.. both in retail and in beta... so yes, Latency IS a concern, and it would be for SC2 too.
WHO is this who speaks to me as though I needed his advice?
