That'd be great if it ends up like that. Basically as long as you're on the same server as your friend and have characters in that server, you'd be able to play together. There'll be problems with Latency no doubt, but nothing major.


Sounds like how Diablo 1/2 and all the other older Blizzard games where on bnet.

Yeah, but it was hell to play with people overseas back in D1/D2. Not only there was a terrible amount of lag, the latency was just ridiculous. It didn't help that the original Bnet was already a bit primitive in the server department back in the D2 days and that the Battlenet 2.0 overhaul should had ocurred much sooner than 2010.

And heck, those were even the times that it worked. Most of the times you'd just ended not getting connected to an overseas server because the connection time would run out.

Ah, I had no experience since I just stayed on US East server.    I just knew that you could go to an overseas server if you wanted.
