wow unranked match making? didn't even think of that

Its normal in LoL and works very well there.
Now all they need is to show MMR instead of the arbitrary ladder points and people would suddenly be much more motivated to ladder just like in LoL.



Actually, that's a good point. Will these common features be HotS only, or will they also be made available for WoL players through a patch?

This more than makes up for non-LAN. Sad we had to wait for HOTS, but still... awesome.

This actually makes me excited for HOTS!

So SC2 is becoming BW-esque finally?

There is still hope it seems.

I'm very excited for unranked ladder. It'll let me practice new build orders much more easily.

I hate to be a downer but now that they actually implemented everything that we complained about for 2 years of WoL that should have been basic features of the game,we should get ready to start complaining all the way through HotS about the design of particular units in the game like the one that spawns from the robo bay and is the epitome of terrible terrible damage.

Looks good, but I'm sad still not automated tournaments like what WC3 had That was by far my favorite part of WC3 and I would be so amazingly happy if they would just put it into SC2.

To comment on what a lot of people seem to be saying. Yeah it sucks that we have to wait for the expansion and pay for the features that should have been in Sc2 to begin with. But come on, can you honestly say that most of us wouldn't have bought the expansion anyway?

Resume from replay is NOT just for tournaments. Think how much fun it will be to load up a famous game and take control with a friend for the decisive battle!

Hopefully they aren't silly about it and only allow resuming from the end.

I'm more interested in what "Unranked Matchmaking" will do to actually ranked ladder.

Will ladder become the place where you actually try to get the best results, compared with now with us knowing pros don't take ladder seriously at all. Or will "Unranked Matchmaking" become the current ladder is, and the ranked ladder become a real test of strength.

Just something that i noticed, they say that this will be released at or around the release of HotS, i really hope that they can get rid of that and just say THIS WILL BE RELEASED ON THE DAY OF HotS. I feel like this could be an easy cop-out for not having it ready in time.

Blizzard won't do it; it just make more Business (aka Profit) sense and Administrative (Acct banning) purpose to Not Provide LAN.

LAN is a thing in the past along with dial-up, time to move on.

Not time to move on. You can't babble on about your love for esports and then refuse to implement a basic feature that makes no latency possible. Can you imagine a baseball game or football match where there was a quarter/half second delay in player reaction? The players and the fans would hate it. That is what SC2 is right now.

Yes, we REALLY want LAN. So much that we will fight for it over 7 years, 2 expansions and forever, until someone (Blizzard or otherwise) makes it happen.

Yea, I agree that it's time to stop crying about lan, Blizzard already said they would implement it a few years after the last expansion is out. Not before that (Already stated why).
