Didn't read the article, did you? If you did, you'd know why this statement is false.

There are chat channels -_-. No matter what people think about how ugly they are or the usability of the channels, they are there.

On topic: Let's be honest, anything that's going to be released at or around HotS is gonna be around

If I was going to suggest one thing: when searching for an unranked match and if it takes a while to actually find one, I'd have a little pop-up come up saying "Found a ranked match at your MMR. Join it?"

Well, everything already existed with BroodWar or Wc3 (like 8 years ago), but I guess i'll just leave a simple "cool, it's about time".

I dunno about that. Blizz is still supporting the original SC and Diablo 2 after all these years.

They stopped supporting starcraft in like 2005.....

Well.... now I've wasted a bunch of money on accounts for different servers. Fantastic.

I don't think you have - seems like global play will be a HotS feature, not a WoL one.

ProjektRed as well. Their support for The Witcher titles is some of the most impressive and customer friendly i've seen in a loooooooong while. Also, yay for this! Way overdue, but at least it's getting added.

Unranked means that you wont get/loose points with that match, but the matchmaking will get you a player of around your MMR, so no master-bronze matchup

Also HOTS should be out, already. Brood war was released like half year after vanilla SC1. HOTS is not here yet. Not to mention the 2nd expansion.

This all look so awesome, I almost can't believe it. Changes/features like these will surely bring, maybe lost, joy for the game once again!

P.S.
One of first comments is hilarious "not sure if blizzard is actually listening or finding a new way to troll me". :D

Resume from replays, clan support, unranked matchmaking, global play?

Is this my reality? All we need now is multiplayer replay viewing and it's double the game it is no-

Wait that's in there too? Please, please, unnamed deity, let this all make HoTS.

Oh fuck I'm so happy they're adding this stuff in finally!

Hell, it's about time!!

I can't help but feel some of these are things we should have had day 1, but I imagine the problem was manpower rather than any duplicitous notion of holding back features to only to release them later as a E-sport Savoir.

I wonder if Global Play means each player, regardless of their original SC2 region, can play ladder on other servers, or if it's just cross-server customs (still good) and you have to buy accounts to have a ladder spot.
