A nice feature to see who is online, now it only needs chat to be useful - and maybe an option to show people ingame that you are only in the bnet client, but not ingame, so that they can contact you. That would be nice and would ease clan administration/playing with friends etc.pp. as i am not always online ingame.

yes, why not? The game client is quite resourceintensive to be open all the time when you are on your pc, and for me as an clan organizer it would be great to have the option to be able to chat with my friends/players without having the game open all the time.

If you have concerns regarding spam/harrasment, there should be an option to disable messages (temporarily).

I guess it was more like an analogy to "Do you really want chatchannels?".

Steam client for Blizzard games only.

Ahhhh.... Okay thank you.

Exactly how will I benefit from DLing this?

It remembers your password and can start with Windows/Mac startup, so you just launch OS and launch game, and see no password/login fields at all. Thats usefull.

Plus also nicer and more useful interface.

Why would anyone use that? I already have to waste cpu-power and memory for steam, thats enough.

Better get used to it, because I'm pretty sure it will eventually become standard for Blizzard games.

It will come in time. That is likely a harder fix that we think, since its is a desk top app interacting with SC2, D3 and WoW. Or it hard to do and not have it be buggy as shit.

Don't see any point in it as is, but it certainly has potential. I could see it being neat if they get chat and things like that in.
