The game not having chat channels, clans, cross-region play, 2010 latency quality, and group replay watching because they were too busy implementing semi-Facebook features: Screw you Blizzard.

Good to know that I can add my European friends to my Bnet friends list. Too bad I can't play with them since I live in the US.

Battle.net and Facebook, sitting in a tree…

Activision Blizzard has announced today that it will be officially linking its Battle.net service to social platform Facebook. As an example of the functionality, StarCraft II players will be able to add Facebook friends to their Battle.net friends list. Finally, you'll be able to easily join StarCraft skirmishes with all of those people from high school you you either a) don't remember or b) never spoke to, but they added you on Facebook anyhow.

The functionality will soon be added to the ongoing StarCraft II beta test, and is expected to ship alongside the game, which was just dated for July 27.

Hmm sounds interesting, as long as random people wont be able to add. I am sure the top level players would be bothered. But it seems only "friends" on your facebook will be able to add you and vice versa.

Yeah something like this was announced at blizzcon, and I'll say the same thing that I said there, "That's cool I guess... seems like a waste of time, I mean how many people actually have boatloads of SC players on their facebook?"

Hahaha just read the comments on destructoid...
One user summed it up pretty well:
"In other news, more than 50 million people join facebook today, which is the equivalent of the entire Population of South Korea."

you can sort of have a chat channel. If you have a real friend or more, in your F list. Donno about non "real-friends" though. You can open the chat to one of them. Then the little green arrow mid right of the chat box, click that and invite everyone else, no need to create a party. You've just created a chat channel. I hope this changes

Hey Blizzard, can I play with the friends I've made from around the world over 12 years in Brood War?

Nah, sorry, but you can play with people you knew in 8th grade!

stop crying about this. Of course they were gonna do this. Did it really surprise you? In 2010?

Alot of people will want to their facebook friends and features present in battle.net, considering the vast VAST number of people using facebook every day, at all times even.

The game won't be any less awesome just because they decide this feature will be at launch aswell.

Dry those eyes

And btw, reality escape from who you are (probaly a nerd) is never a good thing. Maybe it's even healthy that your friends and loved ones get to see what you spend most of your life on :D
