Do you really think Blizzard are that stupid ? Blizzard job is to sell games. Heart of the Swarm and Legacy of the Void were planned from the beginning, and guess what ? These games need to have BNet "new" features in addition to new units/maps...

I guess they planned chat channels in HoS as well but with all the whines they decided to finally make it in 1.2, this is why chat channels are so simple (extended chat window in fact).


Do you really think Blizzard is going to sell copies of HoS because of a name change system?

Im ok with not being able to change my name for free, I actually think it should be a pretty steep price to prevent smurfing but i think it's insane that there's no clan tag feature Oo

Oh and also this.

So have your MMR tied to your account. It's not like there isn't simple ways around a problem like smurfing

Yup, I don't want to change my name and then suddenly need to change it later on for something important finding that I have to pay out for a whole new copy.

It changes your character code each time the name is changed.

It did when I used the free name change and the second time. Different number every time.

My code did not change... I don't think you are correct here.

The only reason we haven't been bugging them like crazy over this is because it was promised and not implementing a clan system when all previous games had one is borderline to malpractice when running a business.

My code changed as well when i changed my name. Maybe you were lucky enough that it didn't change, or you got the same code again.

I would not need a name change system if they were to put in clan support tbh. My Alias will never change now I have had it for 5 years in various other games.

That link is ridiculous. (the content I mean) how much stuff they removed and can't even be begged to put it back in for cost despite people offering to throw them money. (which they shouldn't... there is thousands of ways to stop abuse of name change without charging for a service which should have been free at launch anyway)

ps.. what did facebook integration do anyway? it added a couple of people to my B.net account who play Warcraft... i can't view my stats on facebook, it doesn't do anything! it's not integration, it's not different from importing an email list from yahoo or google.

hmmm...what if Blizzard provided a free name change at every start of the season? Before playing the placement match, the user will have an option to change his name.

Get amongst it Blizzard, this isn't a hard change imo.

Chat rooms came fast and that would've been a lot trickier to implement than allowed paid name change service or clan tags.

This is utterly retarded. Why should we even have to pay money to change our in-game names? SC 1, anyone?

we only have one name change (until now, at least). why should someone use it and maybe waste it, if there's no date on when the paid name change should come out?
then they answer: not many people used their free name change, so we didn't plan on adding the payable option.

HERP DERP.

Some of these are annoying, but a huge chunk of them are very much "who the hell cares?" items.

This image exists simply to get a rise out of people who don't read it very closely. They just see a bunch of red and green checks with all the green in B.Net 1.0 and shake their fist with righteous rage, "Look how much Blizzard took away from me!".

Oh yeah we should make threads on battle.net about how we want atleast the same battle.net as we had and not a worse one for the new games... god damn is this serious? i hope blizzard/bnet are swimming in money and too bussy to do any of their supposed work. Pathetic behavior by the company

is a 2010 system supposed to be worse than a 1999 one though? The fact that it's worse in any way is awful.
