TeamLiquid to the rescue. Can any one track down comments made about cross server functionality? If I recall correctly, and my friends have confirmed my thoughts here, Blizzard said that the cross-realm BS was just for the Beta.

Yeah we are planning a multi site article on it.

It's pretty sick how TL can make you feel a bit safer even at the worst of times.

Thank you.

Blizzard needs to open up their eyes and realize that they are hindering the development of eSports by not allowing cross-realming. I dearly hope Blizzard realizes this before it's too late

You should make a news article with a big fat image at the front page making it almost impossible for a blizzard employee to miss it when he visit tl.net

YES! This and the thread with the article need to be front paged, I would suggest even putting them as a news article so everyone who comes to TL sees it right away.

Really odd that in the rush to force us to connect and socialize- through face book, and friends lists, and personal info, simple things like chat ,clan support and playing with international friends is overlooked.

The chat particularly confuses me, because if bnet2.0 is going to be this cool hangout spot for all gamers.. it makes no sense whatsoever to not have chat. What they say and what they do...

Im hoping it's some technical issue that they are not disclosing due to pride, or security concerns, but otherwise its discouraging how far off the mark they are on these issues.

The limitations of Battle.net 0.5 are atrocious. Also, even if this issue is brought to their attention repeatedly, with sound logic, I fear they will dig out their stock response, and basically just ignore us.

We'll say: "What you're doing makes no sense for these reasons..."
They'll say: "Well, what we're doing will make sense because of this absolutely irrelevant, impotent feature."

just as long as they get their 50 dollars a head, they are happy.

this was all fine and ok when we all thought it was just for beta.

now its re-fucking-tarded.

Blizzard supports segregation, just sayin'

I wish they would stop announcing stuff like this after I already pre-ordered the game.

Yeah i'm sure the PR/Community team wont be happy with this thread/impending fire storm, but their job is keep a good image for Blizzard at all times. Ours to raise hell over issues like this.

Can we please include online replay viewing and chatrooms in this list? The former seems to get lost quite a bit, but imo is almost as important.

but... We have Facebook Integration!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe how bad Blizzard is butchering this chance. They are about to write a book on how to completely fuck up a game that they have been planning for 10 years.

I don't know but from the looks of it, Blizzard is intentionally pissing off their community. You'd think with the amount of dimwits working on SC2 that at least one of them visits TL. Yet nothing is being done to accommodate any of TL's requests.

Teamliquid, GosuGamers, SC2GG, and other sites don't always get along clearly. But assuming all the major fansites agree (who wouldn't?), it's encouraging that every one is going to team up try to effectively communicate to Blizzard that what they are doing is unacceptable. It's been unacceptable for a while now, but this is the final straw that has broken the camel's back I feel.

On monday i'm selling my 2000 shares in Activision Blizzard stock... i'm done with SC2 and i'll go back playing BW. Only hope that blizzard won't kill Korean Leagues.
They care only about money.
