In the back of their minds they might realize they shouldn't do away with features that they have had since 1998 (chat-rooms, ability to choose the region you want to play in "gateways) - But I doubt they are going to do anything about it. After reading this : http://forums.battle.net/thread.html?topicId=25171927052&sid=3000&pageNo=1 I am even more worried for the future of SC2, even with it being only in beta. I was especially surprised at this: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Q u o t e: Chat rooms will not exist during SC2 release, this has been confirmed. Dustin Browder went on to add that the game will likely not receive any "Content Patches" -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The chat room thing not so much, but no service updates other then probably patches relating to balance. Really? -_- | ||

Well if that is true the obvious answer is for the members who know of them, even happen to talk to them regularly have themselves a few words with them. We shouldn't need to cause a shit storm if there are contacts that can be talked to, to bring the point to blizzard more directly | ||

If I wanted to have a playdate with people around the world I'd play WoW, except WoW is one of the biggest insults to gaming ever made. Blizzard, for us, SC is about competition, and the thrill of victory. It's not about raiding and chatting with Australians, as pleasant a people as they may be. It's not about letting all my Facebook friends know that I just got Team Terran 5. It's not about sitting alone in my apartment playing with my friends sitting alone in their apartments because we can't play on LAN. | ||

/signed. What is the deal anyways? They say the technology isn't there- is that because it was a switch from 2d to 3d graphics, therefore too much info going back and forth? | ||

Blizzard you guys have a LOT of things to fix if you want to make this game an eSport.... Im sure if you read 4 random threads in the SC2 section of this forum, that will account for maybe 90% of the problems.  | ||

I've lost a lot of faith in Blizzard the past couple months. I always figured they were simply testing the waters with new ideas and would realize that they were flawed ideas and they'd go with the community. Clearly they're full of shit, or at least the bnet team is. Blizzard has reached the point where they no longer need successful products to make money. I wish WoW never happened. | ||

Why can't I do that over 10 years later? I've lost a lot of faith in Blizzard the past couple months.

Who is SC2 for? It's clearly not for people who actually care about a competitive environment. Some of the features are just so mind-blowingingly stupid, I can hardly believe it. Why can't I chat? Why can't I add friends easily? Why can't I play with people around the world? WHY WHY WHY?! I don't even know the answer. Blizzard is making games for idiots in the hopes of getting huge amounts of money. I thought Blizzard was like Valve - one of the last gaming companies that actually cared. How wrong I was! To any AU/NZ players out there; make sure you let all your friends know they won't be on an english speaking server. | ||
