Battle.net announces the Battle.net Balance feature is now live, hoping to strike a balance between convenience and value in paying for Blizzard products and services. Here's the deal: Battle.net Balance is now live! As we announced previously, Battle.net Balance is a new feature that gives players an alternate way to purchase Blizzard digital products and services directly through their Battle.net accounts. Players are now able add to their Battle.net Balance using a variety of payment methods, and then use that balance toward Blizzard Entertainment products and services such as World of Warcraft game time; paid services, such as realm transfers and character name changes; digital versions of select Blizzard games, including Diablo II and StarCraft II; and in-game pets and mounts. In the near future, players will be also able to use Battle.net Balance for the digital World of Warcraft Battle Chest and WoW digital upgrades. In addition, with the upcoming launch of Diablo III, players will have the option to use Battle.net Balance to buy and sell items in the game’s currency-based auction house.
For more information, check out the Battle.net Balance FAQ, or head to the Battle.net Balance page in Account Management to manage your balance.

Do they still block people in different regions from playing with each other for games like their starcraft 2 ? lol if so bye
Players should be able to choose if they want to play region locked or not for any online game. I love the idea of not having to deal with gold farmers and hackers from eastern europe and asia.
Not only that, but SC2 is still P2P hosted (as is every multiplayer RTS game), and it sucks having to deal with players from other regions joining and slowing down your game. It still happens with people with shitty internet in SC2, and I've run into a few Germans on the NA region, but for the most part it's a much better experience than SC/BW or WC3.
Yeah, unless you want to play with folks not in NA. That was one of the benefits of the mods that let you pick which server to use in SC/BW or direct tcp/ip in D2. When I can lose connection to bnet just playing single player on a cable modem there isn't much of a benefit that I see. I avoided most of the crazyness on bnet with D2 by playing solo or with trusted friends via direct IP.
I hadn't thought too much on the loot drops aspect either. Be interesting to see how much it becomes dependent on buying stuff from blizz or the auction house to gear up. |
