Its hard to make a game perfect because of conflicting interests people have. It is hard to appease to all. I personally think what were getting on launch is to my approval. Yes it sucks there won't be channel but the game has a built in IM system.
Regardless anyone you want to speak with you will most likely have other means of contacting them. If you want to talk to a person you played a game with yes its annoying you can't type in a chat command but really its not that hard to click the dropdown on their name during the score screen and select "chat".
Thread name is misleading. It asks if you trust Blizzard in general but then asks Do you trust they will make StarCraft 2 perfect in every aspect?
My opinion: They will make StarCraft 2 the best game it can be. --->Over a period of time. SC1 took roughly 5-6 years to become balanced as relatively good as it is now.

So far the ONLY thing I dislike is the lack of chat channels and contact to other unknown players.
I miss the general "command box" where you could just /r or /whois or /away etc.
So far the ladder game is moving along just as I would expect it to do, actaully much greater then I thought. Being a wc3 meele/dota player I thought the lack of heroes would make it boring, but it didn't not at all.
The only thing for me that needs reworking is frenzy and maybe ravens/point defence dronealso, mothership cloaking needs a rework.
Balance I will leave to them. And imo it's quite good already.
I am a bit unshure about the new map publish feature where it can be hard to play with players you have just played with and so on. But I don't got any particual complains yet since there is a "non-usable" box which hopefully will fix the "ONLY popular maps get played"
TL;DL I trust them to make a great game, altough it will lack a few things thus forcing us to wait for the 2 expansions. It's a clever trick and I understand why they do it, but I totally hate it...... I mean I would buy them anyhow...........................................

I trust SC2 will be perfect but will be hamper by the new Battle.net. First barrier for Battle.net - REMOVE THE REGION LOCK. I can't imagine that I'm in the same region as Korea when my country, Singapore speaks English or his/her individual mother tongues (definitely no Korean language). Oh, and games here are in English.
I wonder if Australia is classified under Korea according to Blizzard standards.

@Oucast: Buy a US or EU client instead of the AU one.

I don't really think the question is all that relevant anymore. We have the beta sitting in our hands, and we have a very clear idea of what the final game is going to be like. Even with the problems introduced in patch 12, I already know that this is a game that I'll be playing every week for years.
So what is there to trust? As long as I can continue to play the game I'm happy.

This is the shit I'm talking about, Archer. The subject of this thread is "Do you trust Blizzard?" and you're posting a clear anti-Battle.net video. What the hell? Post it in the interview thread where Mr Pearce says there's no plans for chat or some other thread bashing battle.net.
Now you're just making it clear you're spamming anything anti-Battle.net/Blizzard/StarCraft whatever chance you get
I really need to change this...
