balance the game.

NOOOOOOOOOO.....
Still no improved custom game listing/joining sytem? It should have been done on release. If not on release, at least several months later, or two year later, not never/indefinite.
This is ridiculous. Sure they MIGHT improve it with HotS, but they haven't mentioned it so it seems rather doubtful.

Aside from LAN, which I don't care about that much and understand why it's not there, yeah. I'm so happy that Blizzard is adding all of those features, shows that they listen :D
I'm confused about multilanguage support though, we already do have translated clients, is that just adding the ability to switch languages in-game like in the WoW beta/PTR clients?

Basically yeap. The BW teams wanna play on English version and an in game choice is way better then messing with files.

So which are the features we're not gonna see until LotV is out?

This is ridiculous. Sure they MIGHT improve it with HotS, but they haven't mentioned it so it seems rather doubtful. The Blizzard Arcade that they are testing soon in 1.5 looks really promising as an improvement to the custom games UI.

well
this is at least a step in the right direction, but I can't actually say anything if it has been implemented....well...right...until it actually...... comes out.. >_>

Erm don't get your hopes too high. There is a reason why they enforce region-locks. It simply isn't possible yet to send data to the other end of the planet without some latency.

in-game market place...they're holding onto the micro-transactions until they have everyone locked into the eco-system.

I srsly dont understand the logic behind the removal of clan system in the first place. All they made for WoL was one crappy system that your friends can see you playing another game and pester you to come and play team with them. Channels that you cannot ever leave and eternal loneliness.
|
I wonder how long it would take the Blizz to develop all these features they're promising from scratch. Can any professional software developers/game developers comment?
Basically I'm curious how long it would have delayed WOL if these were implemented before release.

Wow, I think they finally woke up

I am also pumped for this part. If it means that Blizzard and custom map builders can make money off of the people who do not want to throw down on ladder, its great for all of us. More money flowing into the game post release means that Blizzard can beef up the support for B.net and add more features, rather than waiting for the next expansion.
Still want my Team Liquid Decal for my nexus. Will pay money for it. Make it happen.

This is excellent news, hopefully it will result in SCII's player base growing like it used to.
