System just shut down again

Bnet might still be a little finicky. In the middle of a game I got a message which said that "the system is shutting down," whatever that means; then Starcraft crashed on me. Everyone else in the game got the same message (they all remarked on it).

yup it's down again.

Wow overall the interface is MUCH nicer, the music is awesome. THings to note.

New BNET Changes
- New loading screen
- New Music
- New multiplayer screens with colours now for each race
- The friends list now displays status like "In Battle.NET Menus" or "Custom - Map name"
- Achievements you can get, and the option to show off achievements to people about 6 of them + achievement points to buy locked items
- Can now select race specific decals
- Lots of new maps
- The unlockable profile pics / decals
- Some of the icons in the game interface have been moved around (example the orbital command has had the mule, scan etc icons moved to the bottom row
- The animation for scanner sweep has been changed from that stupid blue spoke thing to a really kickass looking scan sweep. I won't describe, but it looks cool. Some will like, some will hate it
- The interface on the replay selection screen was cleaned up a bit
- Looks like the create game interface is modifed
- I liked the in game hotnews browser that was kinda cool

More stuff I can't remember. Overall, really nice upgrades.

Yeah from the brief moments i had with it, i really like the changes they made. The RSS Feed looks interesting...they really are doing a good job of making B.Net the center of everything lol

Damn it! Didn't have the chance to log on in time. I couldn't decide what my new name would be and by the time I was done, the server went down.

Zerg did get decals after all, its embedded in the creep. Thats pretty cool.
Like the new decals/avatars. The achievements seem a bit stock right now, but I'm sure that'll change on retail. Didn't get the chance to listen to the music but will later.

Bnet might still be a little finicky. In the middle of a game I got a message which said that "the system is shutting down," whatever that means; then Starcraft crashed on me. Everyone else in the game got the same message (they all remarked on it).

LOL, same with me. You think they could've given more than a 15 second warning.
