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.

Yeah, I was having a hard time coming up with things to nitpick as well - aside from the fact that they're not already here

Blizzard --> best customer support in gaming industry. Period.

Yeah.....let's not get ahead of ourselves here.

Then name a company that supports their games longer or better?

Valve

That was pretty easy.


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.....

Not really, if you actually still played bw you would see that latest patch is from 2007


Nope. According to the TL Wiki, Blizz patched Brood War in 2009.

Well, it's great. Most of that stuff should obviously have been there long ago. Curious how long this has been done and kept it from us waiting for hots. I love that it will finally be here.... but baffled as to why i didnt already have it.

FUK YOU Blizzard. You're not fooling me. These services should have been released at the onset of WOL. Now you are trying to fool people into thinking you're some white knight because you listen to the community. You're a joke.


Believe it or not, Blizzard does not have endless resources. They work in small teams on their games. Time spent on adding these features is time spent away from the next expansion... and this is a company we are talking about. They need to focus on their major releases over support to already released products and this way they can actually hit two flies with one stone, adding great features and releasing the next expansion.

My Jaw literally dropped when I saw the list. Most exciting one for me is the Global Play. Most important for Tournaments is obviously the reconnect. Not clear on what the clan support will be. Man this is awesome.

This is great. If all of this is implemented by HotS, the only major feature we will be missing (IMO) is Bnet tournament support, a la WC3. Unfortunately, this was the one feature I was looking forward to the most .

But regardless, this is a huge step forward for Bnet 2.0! Now it is almost on par with Bnet 1.0!.

Also, all they need to add in now is to get rid of the fully rendered battlecruiser flying around in the background and strip the menu screen down to where you can have it quietly run in a background window. If they do that and add in good clan support you'll actually be able to use BNet as a social service.

Unranked matchmaking? i believe this will fail, since potentially a masters can go up against a bronze level player trying to get over his ladder anxiety


I am sure it will still match you up on your hidden rank. Much like normal play does in LoL. It is less strict but you would not see Bronze vs Masters.

To quote one of Blizzard's own creations:
"Hell, it's about damn time!"

It's essentially all we've asked for. Clan support, resuming from replays...everything!

If you don't like it, you don't have to play it. They have to cater to many peoples tastes with the game, and this is an excellent addition in my opinion. (Source: a person who doesn't have ladder fear)
The more things change, the more they stay the same.
