pointless for sc2, but for people who own all blizzard games this will be a reliable way to add people. It's basically one ID that links to all your ids on b.net.

So I have a couple of friends on SC2 that I have by default from WoW, how is this different?


That's not possible unless you added them on Real ID or shared your SC2 info with them via another service. Battle Tags is just like Real ID without the real life information. If I meet you in WoW and I find out you play D3, I'll give you my battle tag so I can see you online in WoW or D3.

I was being sarcastic, trying to portray my befuddlement over the lack of progress on many other promised features, that are much more important to most SC2 players than something like Blizzard Tags.

They haven't done jack diddly doo, and probably won't until HOTS.

This will probably mean the mass un(real ID) friending of old wow buddies or friends of friends from facebook and such.

you will be unable to change your BattleTag once you've selected it. We plan to provide a way for players to change their BattleTags in the future, but we don't have any further details to share just yet.


It's the same shit with a different name.

This isn't a just-SC2 feature. This feature is specifically designed for people to connect with friends across wow, sc2, and d3 without having to give up their real identities (i.e., for your internet friends).

Good feature. But is it any different from the usual tags?
Not your regular Keyboard Warrior ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Is it just me, but doesn't it seem somewhat overkill and confusing to have the Battle Tag system and the Real ID system. If I see someone that I have met, talk to them and see they are a awesome person, I just send them my email so they can add me as a Real ID friend. Battle Tag seems to be somewhat easier to do, but now we have to manage both systems.

I also thought Real ID is throughout all Blizz games.
