I actually want to know; I asked it earlier but it got lost:

Could this be solved if all players from all regions simply bought the European client?
But why?

I really just don't understand how someone can just say that it is ok to leave it this way. What the hell is going on in Blizzard's developer meetings (of which I'm sure there are several each week)? Are they seriously all agreeing that they don't need cross-region play?

It is absolutely mind-boggling that a team of such clearly talented, smart and creative individuals could ever consider this anything less than top-priority right now.

Facebook have managed cross-region interaction. I have friends from all over the world on my Facebook account. Now my Facebook account is integrated with my BNet 2.0 account, but only with friends from my region.

My BNet2.0 account has less useful functionality than my Facebook account.

I really really REALLY hope that they are all just trolling us, but sadly, I think that they are just hoping that we'll get tired of complaining and just accept it.

that would be hilarious, though it's not going to happen. However if it DID happen then blizzard would be pretty much forced to allow cross server play ^_^. Anyway where's the shitstorm! i can't even smell anything yet.

If Blizzard wants money then they should listen to what TL has to say. If they listen the game will be better and more successful as an E-Sport, and therefore more money. A game for casuals isn't where the long-term money is at.

This is bullshit, someone like Day[9] or Artosis or Tasteless needs to write a letter to blizzard and have it signed by everyone on TeamLiquid and Sc2gg and Blizz forums demanding that cross region play and chat channels be in the game AT LAUNCH

Am I on the Battle.net forums, or why is there huge /signed spam?

This is clearly the highest priority issue for a few reasons. First, players need to know on release day whether they have cross-server play. Otherwise top players would buy extra copies (would probably suit Blizzard more than fine.) Second, it's the only one of the major bnet2 issues for which there is no (free) workaround. It will still be possible to pause and countdown replays, it will be possible to have a chat between people on the internet, playing from LANs works as long as you have an internet connection. For playing with someone from another continent, there's absolutely no other choice than to have accounts on the same server.

They care only about money.


If they only care about money, wouldn't it be wiser to keep the stock?


it would be wiser MAYBE, but i am not a wise man. I am an angry fan that is doing what he can.
And from what i am seeing they care about THEIR money not Shareholders money actually.

Yes, I definitely agree with this, I really hope blizzard listens, because especially Australians and New Zealanders who got to connect to the USA server, We have quite massive command lag, 1-2 seconds


'Blizzard Entertainment also announced today that both the standard edition and Collector's Edition of StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty will give players from Australia and New Zealand access to play on servers based in Southeast Asia, alongside gamers from Indonesia, the Philippines, Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand. This local datacenter will offer players in the region improved latency for a high-quality gameplay and connectivity experience.'

Have fun.

Seriously that interview is mind-boggling... Now "Could this be solved if all players from all regions simply bought the European client?" I'd actually do that.

Yeah we really need to send them a regular petition signed by everyone. Maybe once a month. It will take several months, but I think that's the sort of action that needs to be taken.

I've seen other developers try these shenanigans and that's pretty much what it took to change their minds.

But... can the TL community actually effect Blizzard's stand on this topic? I hope so... but I think in the end they realize we are going to purchase their product, cross region multiplayer or not.

I'm considering not even buying the game after reading that interview. It just disgusts me.

Oh god I was so pumped up and raged untill I saw that picture...

Thank you.


Well, I also thought that Blizzard was better then this. Maybe I will pay as much for SC2 as for warcraft 2, 3, tft, diablo, diablo 2 + expansion and sc + bw. We will see.

I'm pretty sure that they take notice of what we think. Whether or not they will act upon it is a different story.

They HAVE to realise that this is hurting the very aspect of this game that made it, and it's predecessor, popular in the first place; the competitive aspect.

Anything they do to hinder the progress of the competitive SC2 scene, will hurt them in the long run. I feel like they only really have a tentative hold on the Korean market right now and their dealings with Kespa may or may not have helped, but restrictions like this are only (and it's painfully obvious to anyone with the logical part of their brain still intact) stunting the growth of esports as a worldwide industry.
