Pop Posted July 24, 2009 Posted July 24, 2009 Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's how it worked too. Join me, and we shall make Production Beards a reality!

I've never heard of that, but I don't know why Blizzard is tying it to LAN, since they could just, y'know, fix b.net instead. I'm not privy to either codebase, so I can only make assumptions for why they wouldn't choose to, y'know, fix battle.net instead. Perhaps they see this as a cheaper overall solution (including lost sales for those that are upset about it).

Blizzard losing fanbase because they took out some feature is like a dealer losing customers because he is raising the price per gram. "For ourselves, we shall not trouble you with specious pretences- either of how we have a right to our empire because we overthrew the Mede, or are now attacking you because of wrong that you have done us- and make a long speech which would not be believed; and in return we hope that you, instead of thinking to influence us by saying that you did not join the Lacedaemonians, although their colonists, or that you have done us no wrong, will aim at what is feasible, holding in view the real sentiments of us both; since you know as well as we do that right, as the world goes, is only in question between equals in power, while the strong do what they can and the weak suffer what they must."

It also lasts longer.
Shryke Posted July 26, 2009 Posted July 26, 2009 though speed and marijuana are much more available than diablo 3 at the moment when your mind works against you - fight back with substance abuse!
Purkake Posted July 26, 2009 Posted July 26, 2009 though speed and marijuana are much more available than diablo 3 at the moment There is a good chance that it will continue to be so for a while after the release...
Lare Kikkeli Posted July 27, 2009 Posted July 27, 2009 Diablo 3 while high on marijuana will be the best. Add some YOB or any similar spacey doom and I'll never need any other entertainment ever (until Diablo 4).
Pop Posted July 29, 2009 Posted July 29, 2009 (edited) It's pissing off some important people! <url removed - Gorth> Edited July 29, 2009 by Gorth Sorry Pop, no direct linking to profanity... Join me, and we shall make Production Beards a reality!
Lare Kikkeli Posted July 29, 2009 Posted July 29, 2009 <url removed "no linking to profanity" - Gorth> Is this really a rule? I mean that rules out over half of the internet.
Humodour Posted July 29, 2009 Posted July 29, 2009 (edited) So will Josh Sawyer's signature be removed next because he links to profanity also? Edit: He's changed it to his twitter page, but nevertheless, the concept of filtering a link because the page contains profanity inside the content seems ridiculous. Edited July 29, 2009 by Krezack
Lare Kikkeli Posted July 29, 2009 Posted July 29, 2009 Gotta keep them kids safe. Profanity leads to drug abuse and sexual deviance!
Purkake Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 Starcraft 2 delayed until 2010. Blizzard strikes again!
Tigranes Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 So will Josh Sawyer's signature be removed next because he links to profanity also? Edit: He's changed it to his twitter page, but nevertheless, the concept of filtering a link because the page contains profanity inside the content seems ridiculous. Consider it a contact-by-first-degree rule; if your link directly opens up to objectionable content then there's not much scope for dodging it. With something like Zero Punctuation, you get to actually take a look at the site then press play to listen to the profanity. Anyway, everyone feel free to PM with objections, but I will have to eviscerate your dogs afterwards. Starcraft 2 delayed until 2010. Blizzard strikes again! Shock and horror. At this rate Diablo III will coincide with me starting my PhD.

cronicler Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 Actually I'm rather happy with the delay. If it was coming out for the New Year shopping spree, it would probably be a rushed product. Better late then Bethesda, I mean buggy. IG. We kick ass and not even take names.
Humodour Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 At this rate Diablo III will coincide with me starting my PhD. Such a promising life down the drain.
LadyCrimson Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 I don't personally care about no LAN, because I generally play on bnet or single-player/solo...but hubby won't be pleased. If he wants to play, he wants to play only w/me, and doesn't like using the internet when we're in the same room. Oh well. “Things are as they are.

Morgoth Posted February 10, 2010 Posted February 10, 2010 So with rumors saying that the SC2 Beta is around the corner, I though I post some screenies from the new Battle.net. Anyone else looking forward to SC2? Rain makes everything better.
Blarghagh Posted February 10, 2010 Posted February 10, 2010 Is that Boxer as in the king of Terran players? Starcraft 2 delayed until 2010. Blizzard strikes again! Sorry, but this strikes me as really unfair. Blizzard didn't set a release date. Blizzard never sets release dates. Occasionally they will give a rough estimate of their current target always with the disclaimer that it's subject to change added to it, and when they don't make that, people make a fuss and say it was delayed again. It wasn't. It didn't meet an in-house target, but it wasn't delayed because it was never set to be released. This is just people who took an estimate far too seriously and have an enormous sense of self-entitlement.
Mamoulian War Posted February 10, 2010 Posted February 10, 2010 According to Blizzard Starcraft 2 will have always connected feature for singleplayer... wheter it will be mandatory (same **** like ubisoft's ****) or voluntarily, is yet to be seen... http://www.starcraft2.com/features/misc/battlenet.xml Sent from my Stone Tablet, using Chisel-a-Talk 2000BC.
