So after i patched the PTR and saw nothing different except for a option to change from 2 accounts. As soon as i saw that i went to the retail game and saw the same thing. It says SCII-1 and 2. Does this mean we can expect multiple accounts?

[image loading]

Edit: The Retail games accounts DO lead to the same account however in the PTR the 2nd one is a new one completely reseted

P.S: For the people who do not see it in the actual retail do note that i checked retail after patching the PTR which is when it appeared.

Doubtful it'll happen. 2 accounts per key would mean less sales. That doesn't bode well for Bobby Kotick.

i think this only happens to people who installed PTR.

Happens to me too. In PTR, SC1 and SC2 are separate accounts.

In Normal SC2, Both are the same accounts.

Maybe in the future they will give us a new account.

If the two accounts can't be online at the same time it wouldn't change that much really, since it's almost the same thing as sharing one account between two or more players.

Don't think so, but I'd love it if it's true.

Um Warcraft 3 allowed unlimited accounts but only allowed 1 at the time so this might be very familiar to it.

2 accounts sounds fine to me, I can practice offracing on the other account. If there is a limit of 2 accounts /cd key then the amount of smurfs will be low anyway.

hmm, never knew that.
excuse my ignorance then, it just seems so weird to suddenly give you an extra account.
i would be more convinced if it was like different ladder for each race.
guess i am just paranoid.
