Jesus Christ, what a piece of shit.
Here's a clue, Blizzard. Have some software engineers worth a damn who can code an update agent which isn't an exercise in engineering incompetence.
The Retail DVD will NOT install. The update agent always gets stuck and I've tried every solution posted. It's a major networking clusterfuck on the part of the idiots who coded it.
Unbelievable.
To anyone who hasn't bought it. DON'T. You won't be able to install the fucking thing, let alone try and play it.
Thats why you don't use the retail DVD. You put the code into your battle.net account and download it. Retail boxes are a waste anyway IMHO.
I'm not excusing blizzard here, the online only SP is crazy, and having servers offline for 4 hours for a promised 1 hour maintenance, they shoulda done more OPEN stress testing, and they shoulda invested in enough servers for the known pre-order demand trends. I'm just saying there's ways around using the dvd.
