SC II not having LAN support

http://www.tomshardware.com/news/StarCraft-II-LAN-Consoles,8156.html

What's up with that BS from Blizzard. i can't believe the are oing to disable this. I had the most fun when I had friends over to play Broodwar.

No gaming right now... my T42 video is toast (almost)... I'm getting zig zaggy lines all over the place.

re: SC II not having LAN support

Hmm. That's odd. I guess they just assume people will have wireless, but even then, you can usually only host 4 connections. This won't affect me. I've never been to a LAN in my life.

re: SC II not having LAN support

I was discussing this on the GameGrep article. This won't affect me much, since when I go to LANs, we get hooked up to a cable connection as well. This leaves a big question on how live tournaments will be played. We'll just have to wait and see.

re: SC II not having LAN support

In a way this kinda bums me out, LAN parties rule. But at the same time we can all still just join the same game through online connection. So it's whatever to me.

Like I said in the GameGrep comments. SC's LAN mode made the game open to piracy because of programs like Hamachi that allow users to play online through LAN mode, without a valid CD key.

re: SC II not having LAN support

Wireless is so common these days that you could just connect online anyway. I doubt I'll even know more than 3 people who will play the game.
