I am amused that everybody is still complaining like how blizzard sucks since they didnt do it "perfectly."

hey man, at least they are listening to us, and they will fix whatever is wrong in due time.
also, chat channels had a limit in BW and noone complained about that.

I can't believe how big of a fail these chat channels are. Private chat channels already exists in battle.net 1.1. In 1.2, they are the same exact thing plus a shitty "slow mode" that makes communication impossible. This is the biggest letdown ever.

At first I was really happy that chat channels were finally here, logged on PTR to try it out and got turned around quite fast.
The chat channels are so poorly implemented in their current state that I'm fairly sure it's just a trolling attempt from Blizzard, even if we disregard the fact that we've waited like a year for it and imagine they've spent five days working on it, I'd still call it underwhelming :p

haha! I was in broski also for a bit! I watched a 2v2 for a while then asked in zerg strategy if anyone wanted to play a friendly 1v1. I got into contact with a diamond zerg player who was around my level and we just played 4 games straight. I got to try out some different openings and then discuss the MU at the end.

Battle.net was lacking these chat channels so bad!! SC2 for me has been such a lonely experience so far and I'm really glad that the chat channels have finally arrived. Although what's up with the limit on messages in a private party?? I know they're worried about spam, but c'mon that's just ridiculous.

What does this ''slow-mode'' do? I guess it's something to prevent spamming or?

YAY! They're listening! It only took them almost a year. ;p

Are those channels any different from the WC3 ones? They claimed their new chat system to be revolutionary and said they won't release it until it's much better than the previous incarnation from WC3.

So is it any better? Is it even at least as good as chat channels in Age of series or HoN?

I don't think having no moderation privileges in private channels is an issue, as that was how it was for WC3 and things were fine. There were virtually infinite possible channels in WC3 so if people joined yours... you could simply move. There was no way for them to know where you went unless they were on your friends list... and if they are harassing you when you don't want them to... maybe you should just take them off your friends list?

Nevertheless, I do understand there are some situations where it might be necessary such as a popular private channel... perhaps one called "Team Liquid" where spammers may roam free, or simply if you don't want to have to remove an annoying friend who can't stop joining your channel when you are talking to someone, but overall... it's not TOO bad. It's a shame they can't just cover all the bases when working on Bnet 2.0, but I guess this is a step in the right direction.

On a side note, if you have used the channels are the windows as small as shown in the patch notes thread? They were about the size of two chat boxes... which is ridiculously small as I was hoping to have a tab at the top left corner (similar to how you click on multiplayer) to go to a chat section, as well as have support on the bottom bar if desired. If they are that small, can they be maximized? Regardless of the answer to that, why do they always insist on making such large portraits for SC2 when they clearly make the interface far too cluttered. The custom game lobby is already bad enough.

Overall I am happy, but I am sure I will find some disappointing things because the best and brightest at Blizzard can't use common sense and make an intuitive interface.

Well, I just got off teamliquid after meeting several cool dudes of varying skill levels, we all played, learned and 'lol'd' together and had a good time in general.

I'll definitely be doing it tomorrow. See you there guys.
or something

Its a little irksome that it's 2010 and ~6 months after release and the chat system we're getting is still flawed in so many ways that have been pointed out in this thread.


It's a little irksome that people dont seem to get the whole purpose with testing and the current state of chat channels is probably not what we'll end up with(since it's a test to see what works and what doesnt).
Do you really want chat rooms?

i hope they have larger chat channels which cover the whole screen like wc3 in the future, giving it a kind of 'lobby' feeling.
