I hope Phase 2 is all-out with Computer AI.

I bet Phase 2 will hit whenever World of Warcraft patch 3.3.5 happens to help them show off Battle.net 2.0 functionality.

Speaking of which, my theory about StarCraft II beta has been incorrect so far. The patch went live on Tuesday, and RealID is active. But no SCII Beta. Maybe it'll come next week when Ruby Sanctum becomes active? Who knows... I am done guessing at this point :P

BTW for those concerned, check out my RealID suggestion thread on the World Forums: http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/threa ... 5560017218

Security is apparently a bit of a concern :awesome:

blizzard will be making forum posts display the user's realID (real first and last name collected from credit card information i believe). http://forums.battle.net/thread.html?to ... 5626109041

they report it is meant to reduce trolling by removing anonymity. unfortunately it's gonna drive helpful posters away too, and ultimately degrade the quality, usefulness, and accessibility of the forums. the forums, though not essential to gaming, are still an important attraction of the products. degrading official forums will make blizz's games less attractive against their competitors.

I almost boycotted the game since there is no LAN support. That was where I had the most fun with the original, since I suck ass against real people, so I enjoyed playing with my laid back friends and co-op against insane AI. Ironically, now we're far flung after college and don't really get together to LAN that much, but we all still want to play it, so I guess I can live without LAN support :>
