I don't want to come off as an asshole but the fact that they won't implement offline play or chatrooms enrages me, my internet dies alot and are down for several hours without any chances of getting it back up and i don't even get to play offline skirmishes against computers?!

I don't like what Blizzard is doing with all of this, they are ruining Battle.net 2.0. It has potential but if they are too stubborn to add chat channels then they are pretty fucking stupid.

When will they realize that people want to be able to communicate with other players on a online game???

I'd like to know this as well.

Well if it wasn't clear to some people about what direction Blizzard was heading down, this should make it clear as day.

epic fake is epic ??? This must be some kind of joke . If Sc2 is going to become like the other casual cash cow games I'll burn my copy ...

I love how every interview with a Blizzard employee on Starcraft 2, they're always like, "Really? You want chat channels?" Like it's some god damn mystery that we want to be able to communicate with people in a multiplayer game. No, you only get asked that in every interview because we enjoy hearing how much you don't give a fuck about what the community wants if it doesn't directly relate to making Blizzard an extra nickel.
Fair and balanced.

Wow, so they don't even care that the multiplayer platform for their upcoming rts game is much worse than the platform for rts they released 8 years ago.
I had always hoped that bnet 2.0 was only so crappy in the beta and that Blizzard was holding stuff back, but apparently they are either highly dilusional about the quality of bnet or they just don't give a fuck.

I mean forcing players to buy multiple versions of the game just so they can play on a different server is simply insane.

How can you expect StarCraft players to know some head honcho of the WoW development team?

He also seems like a retard so I'm happy I didn't know before this that he was doing something related to SC2.

I blame Facebook, just google how much they leaked personal info.

Now with Blizzard making a deal with them it will be horrible.

Guys please we must think of a way to REALLY show our distaste for this interview and all of the decisions. WE HAVE TO BE HEARD! Maybe if everyone that reads this thread were to create a new topic on the blizz sc2 forum with just a link to this post they would be FORCED to read our comments. I don't know just an idea maybe somebody can think of something better but something needs to be done and fast.

No plans for :

- chat
- lan
- X-continent play
- proper ladder system

As much as I love starcraft, I just feel like they are trying to kill it themself.
