Ptr hiatus

[JackhammerIV]

I just hope they keep trying a lot of big and small changes pretty frequently on ptr. Like they have their own statistical and controlled tests and they just let it out in ptr to see how it does in a "real life" scenario. Might bring up problems they didn't think about.

So we should forgive Blizzard for:
- lying when they said "it'll be done when its done," and then put it out before it was done and lacking incredibly important features
- making incredibly stupid balance and design changes "for the hell of it," and only retracting them when the public outcry is loud enough

I counter-propose YOU are the worst kind of fanboy. The kind who happily takes mediocrity up the ass.

Ah. I see.

I take it you're still angry that siege tanks did 50 to unarmored units back in patch 0?

Should we thank Blizzard for Starcraft 2 not being completed when they shipped it? No. We should thank Blizzard for Starcraft 2 being completed.

You already gave them your money, and yet they are still adding features to the game, at no additional cost. I suppose they shouldn't bother. After all, it isn't like adding features to a game that was supposed to be finished at launch is going to help anyone, right? The window of opportunity has sadly passed, and regardless of what is done, Blizzard can't rewrite history. This game may be played by thousands for upwards of 10 years, but no matter how successful it becomes, it will never shed the legacy of its failure to provide chat channels for almost 4 1/2 months.

If they didn't plan on adding chat and stuff in patches, I wouldn't have bought the expansions tbh.
I'm happy with this patch, just like I'm overall happy with the multiplayer experience. The game won't be complete until we can change servers, but once they incorporate that I'll be a fanboy again.
