We were promised online replay capability in Warcraft III seven years ago.

this is incorrect. they apologized that they did not realize while developing warcraft 3 that such a thing would be desirable, and they programmed warcraft 3 in such a way as to make it impossible to do.

Actually blizzard are doing a huge mistake as many in here have pointed out. Like the guy said a couple of posts above: Even if you have every pro-gamer in the world in the same room, they cant play against/with eachother without a hazzle or pseudo nicks/account because they will still be locked to their region.

And we were all expecting SC2 to be the competative RTS title of the decade but we aren't getting that. What Battle.net 2.0 should have been all about is the following:

Making people from the US - EU - ASIA able to play against each other with satisfactory latency as long as they have broadband connections. Heck, Heroes of Newerth does this well allthough that genre is alot more ping sensitive than a regular RTS.

We were all hoping that blizzard would use some of its WoW money to make this possible but they didn't. The bare minimum to make this game satisfactory was to make it an upgrade to Starcraft 1 which solved all of its "being developed 98" problems. Instead, we don't even get a product as good as the one developed in 98'... We still play on 250 ms and this time we get the "being developed 2010" problems instead, with insane mesures to prevent piracy, even more insane mesures to "protect" people from profanity on the net, and the hilarious integrated with Facebook feature. The only thing missing is that Lady Gaga makes the soundtrack for SC2 and the game would be the perfect parody of the year 2010.

Ah well, doesnt matter much. This game failing doesn't matter much, there are some intresting titles ahead, and Dota/SC1 will suffice until those titles is released. And after this shit ive witnessed both in beta and by the devs i truly, sinserly hope this title fails.

i really hope we'll have less than 50 ms lag because anymore than that is annoying to deal with, as i have experienced while playing dota in warcraft3.

dissing on facebook and saying that blizzard would use a different band type to make their new music goes to show that you have some unresolved issues with sc2 somewhere that you are still having a grudge with blizzard about. so now nothing they do will be good enough for you. and you're just going to throw in some numbers and say sc2 sucks?

you are being such a freak. look, when people go to public places to play chess, are you the sort of guy that refuses to play on the other guy's chess board and with his pieces because you like your stuff better? that's what it sounds like. if you're going to be so judgemental about it, why not make your own sci-fi real time strategy game and do better than blizzard?

If you bothered to read what's been said you would realize this is far from certain, just that we know nothing at this point.

"There will be no chat rooms" is a straight up contradiction to his second sentence where he says there will indeed be chat channels, and to what's been said earlier on the subject. The interviewer should have asked him to elaborate on the "groups" bit but prolly was blinded by the first statement like just about the entire internet.

This is internet bandwagonism at its' best.

I was considering buying a SCII copy but after reading this I rather stick with the old bnet1.0 and with Wc3 which is essentially the game I grew up with and which I find perfectly fun and interesting to have made me stick to it for 7 years. Seems like I will stick to it a bit longer then after all. Sorry but I just wont buy SCII if bnet2.0 will be as following

Blizzard (Activision) is making reams of money on their Wcraft properties. I suspect, but I don't know at all, that that's why they seem to have put the JV team on SC2 bnet implementation. That's just seriously embarrassing as an implementation (yes, i'm a network programmer).

I guess they figure making more money on initial sales is better than sustained revenue? Or maybe they just screwed up? Beats me. The reality is the release date is way too close to today to implement, test, and fix (esp. with the Blzzard dev. team's track record on SC2) all the issues with battle.net.

In sum, it would be nice if Blizzard put good people on projects like bnet 2. But apparently they don't.

This interview got me so sick, I don't feel like playing Starcraft or any future blizzard game anymore ...

I guess this is what happens with every franchise once it starts being so profitable that profit pursuit brings business partners/consultants to the front, and puts game developers and players on the margin.

Fuck you too Blizzard.

It seems, like he was 10 years on some ISS (international space station) without any possibility to join Internet. Now he landed on Earth and right after made this interview. Because how can he ask us about chatrooms, if we want them from begining of beta (maybe it was absolutely first thread ont heir phorum), or do not let people to play with friends from another continents...

This is top 10 stupidest things ever in the world history.

It's like building a brand new house and thinking "Do we really want electricity in the house?".

They actually want to build a community out of Battle.net, but without chat rooms? That's a joke!

Shared replays, clans, cross-realms? NOPE!

Facebook integration? YEP!

Where is the logic behind that!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

tbh he just validated the fears that had been growing on many people since the start of the beta when they realized battle.net 0.2 was terrible. It was just that there was a bit of hope that something better might be coming on release, because you know it is just a beta, right?. But he dashed all those hopes in one fell swoop. So all this pent up fury just broke loose.

This is true for public chat channels, that I never really liked. But I SO loved my clan's chat channel back in W3, seriously it was so important.

For the LAN... well it's sad but it's kinda true, only a minority of people use this, and amongst those who do use it, a vast majority are hackers, BUT lan is so important for competition that this 'minority' in fact as a tremendous impact on the game.

As to what cross servers are concerned, yeah it is retarded. I mean one of the greatest thing about internet is that it supresses borders and barriers. Here, they just create new ones. Stupid.

Shouldn't you be delighted then over the news that there will be clan channels? They have never been questioned or in danger.

Lan was removed because of e-sports, blizzard wants full control of their game. they want to make sure they can shut you off if they don't want you playing.

Piracy is such a bs.

I hate seeing good companies turn bad.

What a joke. I can't believe he had the gall to say that they even have a 'quality assurance' team.

I can go down the line and say what they've missed, but that might go for too long.

Don't get me wrong - I'll play SC2. I'll love it. But it just won't be the same.

Take it easy. And if it is easy, it must be cheese
