The only way to be safe with a unhacked release is to have online authentication
(like assasins creed and HAWX wich still isnt cracked today)
yes i agree we all HATE it, but instead of complaining come up with a solution!
And i think i have it...

********ONLINE AUTHENTICATION SHOULD BE REQUIRED ONCE A MONTH!*************

Steam uses similar to this idea where it downloads "login materials"
Many of my mates and me are in the army CANT play starcraft out field, this is disgustion not to be able to play
one of the greatest lan games away from the real world!

So lets get together and think of ideas that can work and defend the greatest game in the world from
pesky pirates the more money blizzard gets the greater our experience will be!

Thanks

SFJake... my 5 year old computer only has a 40 gig hard drive. Now, my new computer is running 2 terabytes, but it's ssd is only about 40 gigs so games I want to run well use that which is a fairly limited space. If it saves me a gig, that's a gig I can use for sometihng else.

REAL modern computers use SSD hard drives for their OS and games, and SSD hard drives are still quite expensive.

What??? Get real. Real modern gaming computers comes with:
--> a 2nd Gen. Core i-7 2630QM processor
--> a minimum, 12GB RAM (upgradeable to 16GB for laptops; 24 & 32GB for desktop computers)
--> has either a AMD Mobility Radeon HD 6970M Crossfire video card
or NVIDIA GTX 560M for laptops & GTX 580M for desktop computers
--> has 1TB Hard drive (2x 500GB at Raid "0" at 7200rpm) or 2TB for desktops
(SSD is optional & never a necessity)

You may have spent a lot of your wad on your SSD but that wont make a lot of difference performance-wise if your so called "modern computer" is not running on a Core i-7 with at least 12GB RAM on it,
not to mention, you might only have a Class 2 graphics card on it as well.

Check your specs first, if your "modern" computer doesn't even have these features, then whoever told you that it is modern just because of the SSD, just f'ked you up real bad.

What? no. SSD drives at the moment are a luxury item. The ONLY benefit you will get from an SSD drive while gaming is faster load times. you'll shave off a few seconds, but once in game, you'll be on par with those outdate "non gaming" comps with regular 7200 rpm HDD's.

AMEN to that.

I can't believe some people are crying about this... grow the fuck up. This is better for 95% of the player base. Blizzard can monitor things better to prevent hacks and so on. Blizzard keeps denying it, but I think the main reason is still to reduce pirating. I can't blame them at all, they spent a lot of time on this game and they want to protect it.

Lets outline some of the main crying.

"WAHH I can't play when I'm on my laptop on the road" Wifi hotspot, cell phone tethering, mobile usb stick internet. Don't have those things? Too bad.

"OMGZ constant INTERNET NOOO my data limit will get destroyed" No it wont, fools. One hour of play wont take more then 15mb of data. That is so so small of an amount.

"I'm only interested in single player, why do I have to have internet" Blizzard games have always been online focused, because its 1000000x more fun. If you don't like that, stick to Torchlight (a fun game... but gets boring fast because its just SP)


Reading some of the things on the Toms Hardware topic made me wanna rage...
