Why would they have guild channels? Easy. So you can charge people money to set up a guild.


Little bit of money here. Little bit of money there.

Only problem I have with the movie is that it makes us look like the bitchy chick and Blizzard like the cool player who doesn't give a shit (at least that last part is true).

I think blizzard will fix this if there is enough public outcry. They did after all fix the phoenix after people protested enough to bring back the micro. Hopefully they see that adding chat and allowing cross-realm playing is the right move for the long run.

This doesn't make any sense... If it was just a community manager or other mid level employee, there was a hope he was just uninformed.

I don't really care about xcross region matches. But I understand why its important to allot of people.
What makes no sense to me at all is that there wont be chat channels and shared replays?

Archer, who would pay for that? Casuals? Casuals who are setting up a clan?

I bet you the average mid-level employee in a design position is more informed then Frank Pearce is.

You'd be surprised at how many nubcakes and groups of friends create clans "just because".

Why don't they want cross-realm play?

This really doesn't make any sense to me. You could say that "oh well it lags", but shouldn't that be the consumer's choice? Do we really need some kind of gaming super-nanny telling us where he have to play for our best experience?

And what the hell has happened to games companies in the last 5 years? It's not just Blizzard its all of them, who seem to be making decisions in spite of massive protests from fans. I do not see the logic in not including things that people want. Remember the whole MW2 no-dedi-servers fiasco? What the hell are all these companies doing?

How are chat channels and cross-realm play going to make you any less money? Why not just include them and make everyone happy?

Absolutely. Casual newbs constantly pay for such services on WoW.

Great post and the polls are grea too. I will try and contribute to the thing about battle.net 2.0 being bad in a polite manner I don't like it without lan support, no cross regional thingy and no chat rooms!

Oh and the League system shoud stay as it is BUT they shoud make it a world wide thing so for example you have a regional ranking in a League and one League ranking that is global. Example: I am ranked 15 in Diamond in Europe BUT worldwide I am ranked Platinum rank 50 something.

Just a thought.

I don't like Facebook at all. The only thing I ever used facebook for was to get beta keys and I hate that facebook is getting integrated into everything. Intergrating it into battle.net is just freaking stupid.

sc1 is the best game ever in the eyes of many people. Please don't make the sequel something we regret buying or something that separates people whom we have become friends with over the years of playing BW.
Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.
