How many people would swap the facebook integration, portraits,achievement system, and bnet 2.0 chat channels for name changes, clan support, and bnet 1.0 chat channels?

I'm thinking 90% of people if not more?

Percent of what? I'm sure atleast 70% of the total sc2 population doesn't give a fuck about any of that.

It is worth noting that several things on that list were not in B.net when it launched. I imagine they will add stuff as they go just like with SC1.

It's also worth noting, starcraft 2 is a sequel to that previous product, so that stuff should be standard. Yes they are adding stuff.. but it's been a year and all we've had is a half assed chat system integration They've got 2 more sequels to go.. if they want people to buy them they should listen to their customer base, not ignore them, especially when stuff like name changes is an afternoons work at best for one of the interns and increases the value of the product for everyone playing, not to mention at this point a good will gesture to the player base.

From what I got your point was that a large majority of the population would swap some of the sc2 features to get all the good sc1 stuff back, my point was that the majority just doesn't care whether they have the current sc2 features or some bw features.

I'd have to disagree, I would think the majority would want free name changes, clan support, lan, win/loss stats, map stats, etc, etc, etc, etc

I'm not going to use my only name change to change it to a clan that I might not be in, in one years time.

i just want clan tags, as the big issue is many people with the exception of gosi terran keep the same name and just change clans/teams and stuff way more often.

Sad to see players actually begging Blizzard for a payed name change and Blizzard conveniently "forgetting" that people have been asking for this since the Beta.

And including the statistic that "not all people have used their free name change" when it's a unique action and the next step would be 50€ for a new account is nothing but a bad joke.

Abusing name changes and changing your name every single day would be really stupid, imo. A simple 5 dollars to put in your new clan tag is simple and easy enough.

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!".


actually...i find that i would want pretty much all of those old features
better chat rooms that dont glitch and dont mark you for spam when you're saying completely different things w/o caps but you're just saying it in blocks rather than typing it all out at once

unique names...i kinda hate how i can go onto sc2 ranks and type in search for my name and then see 5-10 people.....

crossregion play...we cant even play with people on other servers without paying another $60...thats just bs

player rankings...we sort of have it with sc2ranks but its still nothing compared to the iccup rankings were

teamgames...i dont really care but a lot of people play team games and would care

custom games....their system for this frustrates the hell out of me. it takes me forever to find a map when i type in the entire name of it? bs

tournaments...blizz, wasnt this supposed to be your esport? lol stuff like z33k dailies is fine for me

portraits, i just dont care about these unless we were able to upload pics (through an obscenity screening ofc

clan support...this should be there no question...i do believe blizz even promised it a while back

LAN, YES WE REALLY WANT LAN BLIZZARD, LOOK AT MLG/GSL DISCONNECTS FOR IMPORTANT GAMES T___T

name change...its not really fair for people to be stuck with the same name for forever especially if its not original names

replays, this one is really better/worse, the replay is better for the individual but worse when you're trying to teach someone or something like that because then it has to be emailed and timed over skype rather than just join a game and use chat >.>

ingame commands, i just miss these lol its so annoying for me to not be able to block people who bm me ingame allgame

blizz support...as if they really do anything in the first place, at least with sc2

facebook integration...words cannot express how pointless this is...if you want to play with people you know you just talk to them rather than have them suddenly playing through facebook

I think the option to name change every season makes the most sense... Perhaps we should be causing an uproar for this?

Blizzard had their time to implement a PAID name change, and if we as a community should get vocal about it, i think we can change it up a little?

jesus christ.. why do people let this become the norm.. now we're BEGGING to be ripped off? should be free of charge for fucks sake lol.



They don't want you to be changing your name on a hourly basis. You couldn't do this in SC1, but you could just make a new account. You only get 1 account per game in SC2.

People shouldn't have to pay $5 for clan/team/guild/no-girls-club support.

Gee, it's almost like Battle.net 2.0 was designed in order to inflate the price of goods and services that could be sold through the service and not about the best interests of the consumer. Dare I say that I'm shocked that Blizzard decided not to follow through with these options when the company realized they couldn't make any money from them. This also probably goes a long way in explaining why Battle.net 2.0 doesn't have a competent stats overlay.
