Battle.Net isn't pathetic. It's just missing features, it has introduced some good things to be fair.


Battle.net is not pathetic. Battle.net 2.0 is absolutely trash. The few missing features are the foundations of a good online system. Right now there is none of that.


Wow, people are so spoiled nowadays. The foundation is being able to play the game. And guess what? The matchmaking system, in the beta, is great. The original battle.net let people chat in order to talk to friends and set up games. However we can now make parties to chat with friends, and the matchmaking sets up games - generally better and fairer ones than we'd have gotten talking to random people back in the day. Forums are for talking, battle.net is for playing. This setup is a lot like xbox live - you have access to friends, you can make parties and talk to people you know, but there isn't any functionality to just talk to random people. Why? Because they're not hosting a chat service. If you want to hang around somewhere and talk about SC2, there are clearly places to do it (i.e. all the forums where people are whining). Battle.net is for playing SC2.
