All good news!!! Awesome! Very happy with gameplay resume if the game crashes. No more regames where the game was pretty much won but couldn't officially be called a win.

Unranked matches are still MMR based since they match you against people of equal skill according to Blizzard.

Most likely Blizzard is going to still keep people who select unranked and ranked matches together. Meaning that a player who selects unranked may still play a player who is playing for rank. Blizzard I feel should consider hiding match history from other players. That and build orders. I feel that you should only have access to BO info if you have the actual game replay, in which case you should be allowed to view it. But, the fact that I can just look up a player and see what they are practicing has resulted in tons of smurfs and the need for BO Hider Maps.

Overall, it is a cool feature that makes learning new strategies/offrace easier for people without practice partners. However, I still think that people with ladder anxiety are pretty funny. It is just a game, in which nobody knows who you are other then your screen name. And regardless if your account says your masters or diamond, if you suck you suck, and no digital medal is going to change the fact that you suck.

its too good to be true is because they could have done this for WoL but they needed a reason to charge 60$ for an expansion set

I have a feeling this is mostly stuff you would get regardless of if you buy HotS or not and either way bitching about a company wanting to make money is just lol.

If you actually read what they wrote, it sounds like these things are coming out in patches. While they'll happen at roughly the same time as HotS, you'll get them even if you don't pay. And they've already said they're going to charge less than $60 for HotS. Stop trying to make everything Blizzard does into some sort of weird conspiracy.

I really want to be excited about this, but somehow I'm just bitter. DotA2's beta feels like it has more "esports" support than SC2 does, which is frustrating when you consider that Blizzard hyped up SC2 as an esport and promised they would throw their weight behind supporting it. Why wasn't all of this included in the original game, especially when most of it existed in BW? Feels like they kept it out as a method of increasing HotS' value, instead of simply making a better game.

No offence but you are just stupid.
They told it will be in patches , secound thing they also told that HOTS will be expansion price , not full game price.
So stfu with this hate post , or try to think next time.

Wow, this is of course good news. If they actually add all those things I think we can start calling it BNET 0.9, it's almost back to the level old bnet was.

Still needs detailed stats and built in tournament support.

Unranked match making is a good idea, but there the possibility people only play this and not ladder.

One solution would be to limit you to so many unranked match games a week or something.

Because it's ridiculously fun and highly competitive.

Hope they announce some gameplay changes before MLG. The wait is unbearable... At least do those Facebook silhouettes like they did for Blizzcon for any unrevealed units.

Maybe this was answered and I missed it, but...

With the multiplayer resume from replay function, do you think it will be possible to hop into a replay with an opponent and replay a game from any stage of the game? I could see this being an interesting practice tool, sort of like solving chess problems.

It's not implemented yet. People should chill out and wait untill it's actually done and not just announced.

Do people actually keep in mind that Blizzard are a BUSINESS

They are here to take our money and figure out ways for us to come back satisfied so they can take it again.

I'm happy with the announcements, it will progress the game to the next level of its life cycle, but all this Blizzard bashing makes me sick.

Keep in mind all this time they've been working on making the game more balanced and releasing patches, what are we up to now 23?

For god sakes lads pull yourselves together
