How could he even SAY that about chat rooms?

...How else is a community like Teamliquid (or SC2Armory, reddit, etc.) supposed to interact in this "new" service at all?

Don't they see how easily tournaments could be aided by having a moderated chat channel dedicated exclusively to them?

Is Blizzard out of their minds?

Also, this interview never mentioned how the "pro" league will work. I hope to god it's not just another split-into-divisions tier above diamond.

This is all sorrowfully disappointing.

After reading this, I went from "happy Blizzard camper" to..."Really? I can't believe you really want to piss everyone off..."

I didn't read the whole thread so iuno if this been said but its pretty ridiculous that they go on about unifying the community with BNET (one of the justifications of no lan?) yet the community is seperated by 3 regions and within those 3 regions you dont even have a utility to chat with other players without having to add them which in itself is stupid because to add them you either need to have them as friends on facebook, randomly played them before on ladder, or have their emails.

thats just my opinion let me know if i have any information wrong

Perhaps we should start a cross-realm thread too and have everyone here post on that.
Edit: On bnet forum i mean.

I have tons of WOW friends on vent to play with and add to my friends list. But for the guy who doesn't have vent and is just playing the game, he must feel so lonely and bored sitting there with no chat happening. The "community" in the game right now feels completely non-existent. Even if the chat is like a bad trade chat channel full of spam and annoyingly dumb conversations, it would be a million times better than the cold empty 2.0 in its current state. "Do you really want chat rooms?" is the worst thing ive ever heard a blizz employee say in an interview.

This is fucking gash, i agree.

I don't know anyone. I miss the chat rooms. I remember chilling out in SC BW UK-1 public channel when I first got BW and seeing all the regulars chatting. Some were pretty good, some were pretty terrible. Someone would challenge them and then everyone would be all like "OH SHIT NO WAY, I WANT TO OBS". There's be like 6 observers watching the "newcomer" or the other regular. Was a lot of fun and that's how friends were made. Then joining the clan channels was pretty awesome too.

It just feels so empty right now. Everyone loves fucking chatting, what the hell blizzard?


Your example is right on the fucking money. This is also exactly what I remember. This is exactly how new players are taking "into" the community. This is exactly how there is room for casuals. They can go in an observed these newcomers challenge the regulars.

Funny thing is 6 mouths ago I was so crazy hyped to buy SC2 on release and play it a lot, fast forward to today I hate Blizzard, will download pirate single player and after that come back to Starcraft 1 on Iccup.

this is what game companies have been doing for a while now..

take street fighter 4. they could have given us all the stuff for online features and saving replays that they put in super street fighter 4, but they held it off to hype up their expansion. originally, some of the new characters were even suppose to be in the vanilla game.

and blizzard is gonna pull off the same thing. they are gonna hold back critical features that they could have easily put into the original release wings of liberty game but they will "add" them over expansions and cover it with the veil of "vast improvements"

waded through all 48 pages...
ripoffreport.com is great as the complaints will NEVER be removed under any circumstances and google will put it high in the rankings.
The only thing I regret it not being able to cancel my preorder since I used the beta code...
no doubt I will get a cracked version so I can just play the AI offline since blizz won't give me lan.
Cross server play? was looking forward to that but looks like we are all SOL.
And why the fuck can't I watch a replay with a friend unless we are sitting next to one another!?
This is BS...
I am all for tanking the amazon rankings and smearing blizzards name all over the net...
I just don't understand why they won't give the community what it wants. We will just get what we need elsewhere if they don't implement it. Is the almighty dollar really all that matters to them anymore?

if you played WoW, you know how blizzard works. they are used to do nonsense changes, never listening to the players claims. welcome to the boat, SC players!
Part of the inhumanity of the computer is that, once it is competently programmed and working smoothly, it is completely honest.

More accurate transcript:

Fans: Hey Blizzard, Bnet 2.0 is shit. Are you, er, going to fix that?
Blizzard: Working as intended.


Can't cancel my pre-order, so I guess I'll just downgrade it to the normal $60 one (Jesus Christ).

I've got a bad feeling about this.

Bnet 2.0 looks... cold...

You're alone in front of your comp, just massing games, no chat room to have fun, trashtalk or whatever between 2 games, after spending HOURS just lurking in sc/wow public channel it feels like something is missing.

Lets hope that they will understand that, otherwise it wont be as fun.

Yeah, this is the final nail in one porcupine of a coffin for some of us WoW players. Luckily I quit that game before they started selling the imaginary unicorns.

Blizzard ruined the mmo scene and now they intend to ruin the competitive RTS scene they created.. It's mind boggling.

Either we're all getting too old, or pc gaming is going down the shitter.

This is all very disappointing news.

How is a clan supposed to recruit in bnet 2.0?
