EPTBlizzard needs to completely go back and try again with BNet 2.0, and seriously needs to balance the multiplayer before it will be worth buying. Single player does look enticing, but I can't get past how up-their-own-asses they have been with stupid features (chatrooms).
Will you buy SC2 in it's current state? - Page 17

I don't get how coding chat rooms in takes time. Yes Blizzard made a few mistakes, we realize it, they realize it, you don't need to be so melo-dramatic about it. The sky isn't falling, you will buy SC2 because its a fun game, and all is right in the world. I'm curious, are you able to read? Because the name of the current poll we're all voting in is "With the way SC2 is right now, are you going to buy it." | ||

I will buy it for the campaign. But if blizzard ever dreamed of taking SC2 to the heights of turning pro gaming mainstream they are going to run into a brick wall. They will get my money on the 27th, but if things remain the way they are, their reputation is going to take a hit no amount of profits will be able to repair. If clans, chat channels, regular tournaments, and cross-region play are not implemented BEFORE Heart of the swarm, you can kiss your trilogy and the entire IP goodbye. Enjoy your quarterly earnings boys, you just squandered away 15 years of dominating the PC market. | ||

Does anyone else feel like with the influx of WoW players into the SC base there has been a greater inclination to go "XXX unit/strat/race is imba, Blizz fails at balance" instead of trying to just adjust your gameplay? The only thing I think Blizz should do is balance with the Highest level of play in mind (only balance around the top 1-5% of players, and I'm more inclined with only <1% ie. the most pro of players). | ||

If was week ago i would answer YES no doubt of that. But now i dont know... i TOTALLY agree with this. I feel very let down with their response as of late. I don't think we're asking for much... a 10 year old game made by the same company has the features we're asking for... blizzard fallen from grace. /sadface On May 30 2010 10:26 Level10Peon wrote: So none of you won't buy a perfectly good game because of on LAN nor chat rooms upon release? You guys exaggerate more than a Republican on healthcare reform chatrooms and lan are annoying, but if you want to play in tournaments you need to be on the server that has them. tourneys are the ONLY reason i played SC2 beta every day. Ladder is fucking awful and the non stop cash prize tourneys was so fun. 3 games x 3 expansions x 50 bucks is $450. That's a lot to ask for a game that so far is less dynamic than the original sc. | ||

Considering: -SC is still a played game after 10+ years. -Blizzard is (in most cases at least) guarantee of quality. Agreed that Bnet 2.0 should be improved and I'm sure that there are still balance issues. As current patch I still think is a great game. | ||

They can't make everyone happy. Chat channels are a huge turnoff for a lot of gamers. Most people just want to PLAY, and 2.0 gets you there faster then ever. I probably spent more time looking for games then actually playing back in my BW days (pre iccup, wgtour etc. And I still can't find games on iccup half the time). This is literally the dumbest post I've read on TL. Chat channels are a huge turnoff for a lot of gamers? What are you basing this on? Your own anti-social experience? My personal experience tells me otherwise: games without chat channels feel empty. I like being able to relax between games and just chat with people. I like being able to go into big public channels and talking with different people, finding people that like talking about the stuff I do and visiting their channel, or just making a small private channel with friends. The general outrage that there are no chat channels, which isn't confined to TL, also shows the stupidity of your post. I suggest you take your own advice and pull your head out of your ass. | ||

I'm just hoping that if Blizzard doesn't fix Bnet 2.0, someone will design their own server and client that everyone will use instead. Best of all, we'll all donate money to the programmer to live rich somewhere off shore so Blizzard can't sue. I have too agree with that, not that i didnt preorder the game already. I seriously dont care about Blizztard giving us no LAN, no doubt in my mind someone will. And maybe when blizz see we can all actualy plan LAN pretty simply, they will give it to us | ||

Battle.net 2.0 is like Vista... upon release it was so screwed up it took months before it got semi-viable... and even years after release it's still garbage because it's built on shaky foundations. | ||
