(I seem to be pretty fail at making correct StarCraft 2 threads, so if this one is all out of whack just sweep it under the rug.)



Some of you may have seen the tons of threads talking about Battle.net 2.0. After reading some of them I made a video (featuring cute kittens) talking about my stance on the issue.

Recently, Blizzard has taken note of the community's complaints, and has posted a public response:

Always appreciated.



We're fully aware of the concerns that are being discussed in the various threads, on fansites, detailed through kitten videos, etc. and we're in the midst of working on a comprehensive address that should hit most of the major concerns. Just a heads up.

And also: Q u o t e:

***************************************************

I don't want to complain too much when I got what I wanted, but why does it have to take this long to respond publicly to a major topic?

***************************************************

It's a fully justified complaint, and hopefully something we can correct moving forward.



It sounds like Blizzard may actually be addressing these specific issues directly soon. I'm really curious to see how they reply in the days moving forward.

sword_siege Profile Joined September 2002 United States 619 Posts #10 Amen brother. I think it's natural for Blizzard to collect their thoughts and respond in a comprehensive, thoughtful manner. They have a much larger public persona to worry about and if they mistakenly say something such as, "Do you really want chat channels?" when they might mean, "Don't you want a tool to facilitate communication that's even better than chat channels?"



I'm talking hypothetical here but I hope you get the point.



I think Blizzard's response, if history is any indication, will be along the lines that they love the passion their fans have for the Starcraft universe. They understand there are areas where Battle.net 2.0 is deficient but this is a work in progress and rest assured we will give you a tool to facilitate organizing and communicating with large groups of people. We will implement some form of cross realm play. To do this right it will take time and we appreciate your patience as we enhance Battle.net 2.0 to be the awesome platform that we all want it to be.



At least that's what I hope they say :-)
