Comment below with your thoughts! I want to make this perfectly clear: I absolutely love Blizzard. I just think they are making a HUGE mistake with the direction of B.net 2.0. Please do not take this as a rant, lets keep it constructive! Links: www.teamliquid.net www.teamliquid.net BONUS: Listen to this song while watching the video! www.youtube.com (A quote from their feedback forum) “Say that blizzard is a restaurant, Starcraft 2 is the food they serve and battlenet 2.0 is the waiter that brings you the food. Now the food is hands down awesome, it’s the best thing you’ve ever ate, in fact it’s so good your mouth orgasms when your tongue touches that culinary delight. How ever the waiter is a dick. He doesn’t allow you to talk to any one else at the table, but you can whisper to some one close to you as long as no one else hears what you’re saying (no chat channels). When you see some friends of yours at the next table he doesn’t allow you to get up and go to them unless you order the exact same thing you’ve ordered at your table once you reach their table (no xrealm) If you want salt on your food you have to pay extra, if you want pepper you have to pay extra, if you want to use the napkin, you have to pay extra, if you want a tooth pick, you have to pay extra, if you want to go to the bathroom you have to pay extra (map marketplace). While you order the waiter places a microphone under your table in order to gather personal information about you, information that he …

Do you really want chat channels?
kii064 · June 21, 2010 at 2:36 pm
gotta get rid of those starcraft 2 mineral farmer spams somehow
dark3031 · June 21, 2010 at 2:45 pm
@Tzeapaedi exactly. Removing chat channels because of spam? It’s like closing down the banks because of robbers, or banning the use of cars because accidents happen, or removing the whole internet because of porn, terrorism blabla. Bad choice blizzard.

This is the best video on SC2 ever.
sharinganmaster05051 · June 21, 2010 at 3:38 pm
i’d rather use battlenet 1.0 than battlenet 2.0
Tzeapaedi · June 21, 2010 at 4:03 pm
“GIVE-ME-A-BREAK! Are you kidding me?” Best part.
bumbiino · June 21, 2010 at 4:44 pm
@TheRealBowser its all activisions fault ffs

Seriously, I rarely spend money on games (guess where I got my games). Last time I spent some money, was on Warcraft 3. Now, I’ve preordered my Starcraft 2 copy, but I must rethink my decision seeing so many bad features on Bnet 2.0. Why can’t we just get back to the Warcraft 3 battlenet? I won’t hesitate to buy a legit SC 2 if they stay with the good ol’ battlenet. They are fixing something that aren’t broken.
IlvVN · June 21, 2010 at 6:16 pm
Lucky for me – I planned to pre-order SC2 but now I think I’ll just get it for free somewhere, wait for “some” servers to pop up instead so I can play with ppl in the states and some “modification” so I can play in LANs. No pt wasting my money for this BS. Thanks Husky!
arglechewyshoe · June 21, 2010 at 6:22 pm
Why can’t we just have Battle.net 1.0?
sm1tty5569 · June 21, 2010 at 6:34 pm
Fixing the spammer problem – IDK if b.net 1.0 has this but almost every RTS game i have played has a “pest” feature. This basically blocks the person from communicating with you in anyway, so that means that you wont see there spam in the chat rooms.
Why not implant this instead of completely taking out chatrooms.
The regional play is just complete BS. I’m Canadian and I play against people in Europe and Australia all the time in other rts game sand have never had any serious lag problems.
fugehdehyou · June 21, 2010 at 7:33 pm
@alpha0025 $150 Australian dollars, pretty much $130.50 US dollars
Gives me the shits how everything’s so much cheaper in the USA compared to Australia
like we pay almost 1.5X everything, and 10X for cars 100X for houses..
a nice house here is nearly $500,000 :
Superdude6699 · June 21, 2010 at 8:03 pm
lol i just love the kittens.. its so funny to hear a rant with a bunch of little cats XD
MadMAn12gauge · June 21, 2010 at 9:03 pm
These assholes forget that we are the ones in the end paying them their fucking sallaries
And they walk around with a big fucking stick up their ass trying to impose their will on us??!
I mean….they should feel ashamed trying to present a ” Peice of shit mixed with state of the art technology” kinda reminds me of a painter who makes a 10 second Chicken scratch picture and expects to be paid a million dollars, redicules, What ever happend to quality is better than quantity
MadMAn12gauge · June 21, 2010 at 9:06 pm
because it is bad enough that we have to buy 3 games instead of one…and then they try to Doggy style fuck us by not adding the basic tools, like no online replays, Cant even make a private game to show and share replays, what the fuck is that shit? and then we forced to Have only 1 name per account? At least give us the option to change our SN if we join a clan and add information in our profile…Seriously what the fuck kind of Jewish shit is being pulled on us here…
MadMAn12gauge · June 21, 2010 at 9:07 pm
@vancebla11 you dont understand..these are all things that we had to really get on their asses about.It is basic shit too…its like, being around someone that doesnt shower or change their fucking socks.This kind of shit is just a GIVEN, you take showers and you change your socks.You shouldnt have to tell them to do this, they should allready through common sense do it.It is irritating when they know better too! and it is very insulting to us all, them implementing it in the end doesnt fix it
vancebla11 · June 21, 2010 at 9:47 pm
dont worry guys all these problems will be fixed. blizzard recently announced that they have plans for chat channels in the future, along with cross realm playing. about LAN, I have heard that there will be professional edition with LAN available or something. Don’t worry about it
subsinatic · June 21, 2010 at 10:09 pm
I wish I could thumbs up this video 1000 times.
IRhoemerI · June 21, 2010 at 10:39 pm
@IRhoemerI
later they r saying that this service will probably available “a few month”
after releasy….
just typical for blizzard last motions…..so sad^^
i think they just leafe the “buy a full copy for multiregions”-politic bcause tey feel the presure from the community….so keep up doing…you the we can change
so thnx husky at this point for all your efforts to rise this community!
and also thanx to hdstarcraft of course
IRhoemerI · June 21, 2010 at 11:20 pm
Hey guys i just found this on the official german forum:
Wir gehen derzeit Ansätzen nach, andere regionale Versionen über die Accountverwaltung zur Verfügung zu stellen, ohne dass ihr eine weitere komplette Kopie erwerben müsst.
I´ll try to translate for you it means st like
We´re currently following rudiments to make other regional versions disposal over the accountmanagement. Thisway you have not to buy a FULL copy of the game.
means: seems like extra cost for multiregions.

The kittens soften the impact :<
xL3G3NDxsniper · June 22, 2010 at 12:55 am
@xipkore well they should have moderators or chatrooms in the main forum so people can talk with each other and get to know more people. but getting rid of chat rooms is totally stupid
Blackhawkk13 · June 22, 2010 at 1:27 am
bnet 2.0 = crap
