EPTThe seggregation of countries via regions without the option to change region however is a cash grab, a disgusting, community hurting cash grab and if this is not addressed, they will not see my money - period.
Fingers crossed.
Blizzard will respond to Bnet 2.0 Issues. - Page 9

We're fully aware of the concerns that are being discussed in the various threads, on fansites, detailed through kitten videos, etc. and we're in the midst of working on a comprehensive address that should hit most of the major concerns. Just a heads up. And this will be the address: The course B.net 2.0 development took is the one of our choice and it will stay that way, because "We are and always have been committed to the highest possible standards when it comes to game development"......offering the best possible gaming experience.....the Blizzard way........however.......industry changed over the course of ten years.......needing to adapt our products and development module........still represent the highest standards........always open to suggestions. Meaning: Fuck you, we don't give a crap about 50.000 whiny StarCraft fanatics, do whatever the hell you want, we're still selling 10 million of those babies. | ||

Now obviously it seems silly that a company would intentionally restrict the users of their product to less functionality than what previously existed, however there is a rather disturbing potential justification from Activition's point of view. It has been stated that they intend to organize tournaments themselves through battle.net and with their current push to try an imbed micro-transactions in the platform it seems likely that they will try to charge for these tournaments. Clearly, if it were easy for users to organize their own tournaments there would be little reason to go through the system Activision sets up once they start charging for it. I realize this is a stretch but it is one of the few possible justifications for a number functionality changes. Hopefully they will reintroduce in game chat channels and return usernames to being unique which would immediately disprove this "conspiracy theory". As a side note: Is there evidence that the Starcaft 2 team are truly the ones building battle.net? I almost get the impression that it is a separate team outside of the Starcraft 2 project since I've seen it mentioned that battle.net 2.0 it intended to be used for other future releases (diablo III). It's just that the discrepancy of quality between the Starcraft 2 game and battle.net is so great it seems hard to believe it is the same company making both. | ||

It's just that the discrepancy of quality between the Starcraft 2 game and battle.net is so great it seems hard to believe it is the same company making both. Well it can't be the exact same team since making a video-game is completely different than building an internet social interface/client (which is not very social atm *hum* ). There are some common elements though to assure the transition between the 2 teams. Now what can explain the state B.Net is : Very bad executive direction ? Rushed it ? No one knows but Blizzard... we can just hope some of the issues will be addressed, maybe later. | ||

Why no lan? Because we want full control over our game. Why no xrealms? lag. Why do you get to share our information? That's just contract mumbo jumbo that we have to have, don't worry about it, we won't give your information away. No chatroom? We don't feel their necessary. Chat windows are good nuff. Why not let us see our global ranking? Because its irrelevant and it'll only make you feel bad about yourself. Why are the patches so bad, and some of the important concepts like high ground advantage and moving shot not implemented into the game? We feel its not necessary and we like things the way they are. Answer to every other Bnet. issue and starcraft concerns: We're currently examining the problem and will fix it in the future if need be. | ||

''Orly? better not threaten me again then!*punch*''. I mean wtf.. no wonder Blizzard will sell millions of copies no matter what, apparently the promise of an eventual answer is enough to appease the majority of people, i mean they havent even answered us yet and already theres people posting about how they regret canceling their preorder lol | ||

With this analogy you are just a whiny bitch who thinks that Blizzard is hitting you when he doesn't do exactly what you want. Now if the game gets released with super poor support and no in game community to talk about and they are about to release the next game and people are talking like this, then you can come and post the same post. | ||
