No cross server play sucks for anybody willing to play in international tournaments, I'd put that over chat channels in the priority list any day. Most esports communities (Quake, CS etc.) never had chat channels in their games, they did just fine using IRC. Ever wondered why the biggest IRC network is called Quakenet?

The fans should just threaten to do the "Death by a Thousand Amazon One-Stars" like the Spore community did over the DRM issue. That certainly got a response out of EA quickly, and it would probably work against Blizzard as well.

Are they completely delusional or straight-up lying? In almost every question they contradict what has been said earlier. (inc heavy paraphrasing): "We are all about community" "Australians won't need to talk to anybody! Your enemies don't have to speak English for you to beat them!"
Seriously they just say one thing and do another...

Blizzard really needs to get their act together otherwise it will be "gg no re" in the sense that i will be cancelling my SC2 preorder.

Get every single TL member to give SC2 a 1 star rating on websites like amazon. That would definitely scare blizz because that could effect sales numbers


That's the best thing to do I guess.
It's a shame we have to come to this though.

What bothers me the most is the attitude that Blizzard is taking. The interviewer was obviously trying to address the issues that the community has brought up, and Frank Pearce comes back with "Blizzard knows best." Frank says that they listen to the community, but the attitude in that interview says the exact opposite.

He is too much occupied counting Dollars.


If it is about the dollars why would that make him not care about the players or the future of the game? Both of those aspects are what is going to bring in the $$$. Either they are just oblivious to what people want or they hope they'll be able to smooth it over as time goes on.

My disgust with Blizzard is reaching critical mass. If they fuck up SC2 through BNET (sc2 is awesome stand alone) I will probably cancel my 5 year wow account and just move on from being a Blizzard fanboy. Just being honest I'm not 'threatening" blizzard, I am almost 30 years old and watching this company go to shit since activision merger is sad ;( Not to mention treat all their customers like children now..

This is fucking disgusting. I am seriously disturbed at how blatant they are in ignoring their primary fanbase. I agree with what they are doing in Korea with GOM. But this interview has finally pushed me over the edge and I now completely believe that blizzard does not care about their fans anymore at all, we aren't even a number to them. They don't listen to their fans comments, suggestions, or criticisms, we do not exist. I give up. Starcraft 2 will not be able to reach the magnitude that starcraft 1 did. It is impossible for people worldwide to legally play with each other, can't they see how fucked up that is? Keep on blowing my mind blizzard, I am severely disappointed that the great game that is to be Starcraft 2 is packed inside the dirty condom that is filled with the ineptitude of your Bnet employees.

Like I said originally, I really feel that we should get set up, but just threaten at first. A polite thread on B.net SC2 Feedback forum would do the trick. Simply stating our case. There's no reason to actually go ahead with it unless we have to.

Do you really want chatrooms?

Well Frank, do you want me to buy your game?

Always thought blizzard was kinda cool, 'cause they developed the games i loved, but the tone of this inteview is so ..... blah i don't know. for me as someone who works in the service industry and has direct customer contact i just can't understand how blizzard thinks such an interview would male them look cool or whatever.

i think i'm just really really disappointed in blizzard
