No, it'll be like cell phones and text messages. $.05 every time you hit enter. I mean, that's the new-age business model.

These have been announced for a while.

Daniri, you say that b.net 1.0 had channels like this and you're right. But I think the reason that people never joined them is BECAUSE they were thrust into either default gateway channels or clan channels.

I don't know, I'm willing to give this system a try I guess. Hopefully it works. If not, I guess we'll just have to resort to other methods. It's not like most clans don't have a vent nowadays, which wasn't necessarily true in the b.net 1.0 era.

As for identifiers they are returning for the second phase of the beta. The previous system did not work as intended

Will be fun to see what will be the most popular nickname. Also, if you make your nickname late, you can see how many people already used your nickname. Way to feel special if you are nickname.001

On a related note, what happens if ESPORT.999 is made and someone else tried to make it? Is he screwed or will battle.net just implode?


This is what we should figure out ofcourse!

It doesn't really give much in the way of explaining though, this message. Mostly just going back to the non-unique nicknames with chat channels being implemented in the future without us having any idea how they define chat channels.

What is the point with identifiers? Just let us use numbers and symbols like in war3 and sc1 so we can have unique names. Does Blizzard really want people to be called ESPORTS001 ESPORTS002 ESPORTS003 ESPORTS004 ESPORTS005 and so on? T_T

Oh come on. How can you possibly misinterpret "Chat channels"?

Come release day, I fully expect to see an embedded in-game 24/7 infomercial tab on which they sell various head apparel with "C" on them. Calm down everyone, they will have this, give them time.

blue post: "The number will be automatically generated. Please keep in mind that you won't be able to see this code everywhere, but only on certain screens. (i.e. it won't get in the way and it won't ruin the "look" of your nickname, don't worry! ) "


The blue post does say that but I fail to see how that's a relevant response to my post?
Automatic does not have to be the same as random. It means that it's added automatically as in: not manually. Could still be in order of appearance.

You won't be able to see it everywhere, but you will be able to see it somewhere or it has no added non-uniqueness function. So still fun to check how popular your nickname is...

yea, sorry, my bad. i saw word 'generated' and automatically assumed it would be random -.-

Yeah the recent responses from various Blizzard Community managers has restored my faith in Blizzard.

I'm no longer worried, things will be great - if not at release -- atleast a few months after.

Have faith guys, its gonna be fine

The community causing a major shitstorm about these issues have definantly played a big role in all of this.

Ohhh thank you so much MR. blizzard that after 12 years of waiting, u give us hope that in the few months after the release we'll get what we had before.
You go to shop for a new iPhone but the manufacturer tells you that software in it is not complete yet but dont worried because in few months there will an update and eventually u going to get the same as in your old model. Oh, and u get only a keyboard right now, for a screen and battery will have to wait a bit and pay extra because this phone is so cool that we need to divide it on three parts. Does not sound idiotic?

Totally reminds me of carriers and the tempest.

Blizz: We got this awesome new unit called the Tempest instead of the Carrier.
Community: We hate it
Blizz: Well sorry it's gonna happen. No changing it at this point.

(Weeks Later)

Blizz: Ok, due to popular demand, we're sorry, here's the carriers you wanted.


Just change that for chat channels and wallah.

This is basicly what's been said for months. The only conclusion is that watery eyes have negative effect on peoples ability to read.

Honestly I am not holding my breath for all this....
I am still not going to purchase at launch and have no problem waiting several months to see how/if they implement these features (primarily cross realm play) and what paid features will be in the game...
I will be looking to TL for feedback!

still it was damn fun.

evry 2nd game someone was like "hey i know you.we played 2v2 yesterday!" "haha noob i crushed you yesterday!" "again you? "

but yeah. unless the number is shown all the time (which would be daaamnn ugly) this solves exactly nothing. except that we can add friends without facebook again.
