While downloading now, what the heck, I decided to google "Teamliquid StarFriend" and saw this. Did not know there was a thread here already since last year. Me and my LAN buddies from high school are having an out of town reunion next week and we decided to revive our old 4v4 parties ---10 year old 8-port wired router still works FTW! Asked my friends to install SC1, Battle Realms, UT2004, CS and WC3 on their laptops in advance. Glad we will be able to play SC2 as well. :-) See, Blizzard just don't get what Beer+LAN on a Philippine Beach means. | ||

Proleague was on the other night, Sayle was casting and a player began to drop in Kespa... KESPA (due to the hybrid system) what a fucking joke. Frustration level 100%. | ||

Taejas PC crashed, the last drop due to lack of lan support I know of was IPL3, it really isn't that big of a problem. | ||

Resume from replay solves more issues than LAN, and LAN offers some very different and better functionality than just reducing chances disconnect; it namely: allows play without internet connection, and allows for much lower latency play (which also allows for some fancier custom map code possibilities)With HotS coming soon™, LAN won't be necessary anymore. So why bother when Blizzard will most probably not get back on their words now that they have a way to get around it and to be totally fair i agree with them. Implementing LAN now would be a total PR fail. | ||

1. Blizzard is not bending and they have stated many times over and again there is going to be no LAN. So making an online petition that some 16 years olds put together does nothing. In fact, online petitions do nothing except let the whiners feel like they have done something. But that's an arguement for another time. 2. Honestly, I didn't get a lot out of the OP's post. It was so poorly constructed and the wording. Seriously. Was any time and thought put into the post or was it thrown together so fast to be the first one up? 2.a.. And now the first couple of replies are about absolutely nothing. Nit-picking? Is TL starting to become B.net forums? I sure hope not. Lack of thought in the OP's post. And the useless comments about double spacing... 3. And honestly, B.net did make a huge impact in the ways games were played. I know people are all for LAN, but they also forget the mess that it was to set that up. So please stop saying LAN is the best thing ever, because really, it wasn't and that is what made B.net a forerunner for what you see today; easy access play. And just think, LAN isn't going to get you wanna-be pro kids playing on the Kor, CN, EU servers. And let me touch base again by saying it was Korea that really made SC live for 10+ years. Not custom games, like the millions of TD out there. 4. This one is an angry response. Taeja's computer crashed. Battle.net had nothing to do with it. For those who don't know, if a computer crashes the timeout still happens. NeMeSiS3 needs to think before he types. (warn me, ban me, I'm sorry but his response needs to be nipped in the butt) Blizzard runs MLG events? How DARE computers have issues in the glorious name of Esports. Yeah guys, frustration level 100%! I completely agree with Snacky, Close this thread. | ||

Worst part is having to buy 5 sc2 copies just to be able to play different servers. In broodwar you just selected what server you wanted with one click of a button. | ||

I dont think it has to be implemented for ladder games, but maybe for custom games only | ||

There will be a "resume from replay" feature, which gives better functionality than that — at least for tournaments and custom games (not necessarily ladder). | ||
