Blizzard gear store

Hi!
I wanted to buy something from the blizzard gear store, but I read a lot of post complaining about their shipping times and customer support.
Has anyone here ordered from them recently?

Why does quick play have competitive rules?

How can someone get suspended account for staying idle if its Quick Play? Its the mode to goof off on yet being friendly with the enemy team made my team report me. I mean its not like you can leave the match because you also take that like is competitive. People take quick play so seriously that you can't mass around without getting reported. Why?

D4 season ruined because of dupers

Muti billion dollar company can’t fix game breaking exploits. It’s gotten to the point to where it’s comical. Bugs after bugs, trading is practically done for. Duping has been in the game since season launch and the market is FLOODED with dupes. What a shame. Embarrassing excuse of a dev team.

No manuals in "remastered" Warcraft I and II, and always online required. But GOG version has OG manuals included and it is DRM free. Spend your money wisely.

Life at Blizzard?

Hello all!

I wanted to know if all the layoffs over the years have actually changed the culture over at Blizzard. My WoW itch(gone for 4 years) has reeeeaaaally been tingling but I don’t know if I can willingly give all that money to a company ran by assholes. Does anybody know if the culture has improved? Also sorry I tried googling this but didn’t find much

Searching for a pom-pom beanie from World of Warcraft (Horde beanie)

Hello, I'm searching for this specific beanie of the Horde of WoW but I can't find it anywhere. (poi alleghi la foto) I also asked customer service on the European Blizzard site but got no response. Since I would like to give it as a gift to a friend, could you tell me where I can find it? or, better, if it goes back to restock on the blizzard European website? The article page no longer exists on the site,there is only the Alliance beanie, but some time ago I checked and the Horde beanie was in stock. Thank you so much.

So here we go. The fans of StarCraft prefer StarCraft to continue being an Rts game !

Blizzard's Project Titan cost $80 million, had Animal Crossing and Sims Elements

Details from Jason Schreier's new book Play Nice in a new interview

"It cost the company $80 million, as well as six or seven years of opportunity costs; potential other projects that were lost along the way," explains Schreier. "It was just a debacle for the company as a whole. And it also, and this is the most important part, it said to Bobby Kotick, that the promise of 'You just let us cook and we'll make you hits,' is no longer true."

Titan never really coalesced mostly because it wasn't born simply from a desire to make another great game, but rather, to develop a game that could rival Blizzard's own World of Warcraft before another studio beat the developer to the punch. Play Nice goes way more into the specifics of what Titan was than has ever been revealed before. The game was meant to have the players take control of a character that by day, would live out their lives in an Animal Crossing or Sims like experience with activities like fishing, photography, and even a full time job. Then, by night, they would fight crime as a superhero.

Why is there no Starcraft universe upcoming game?

With the success for Space Marine 2, I keep thinking... imagine if there was a similar game with singleplayer campaign for terran, zerg and protoss? and then some sort of PVP with starcraft units, abilities etc.

Feels like Starcraft lore/universe has been abandoned. I get RTS games are now niche games but still you have all that lore and it's just sitting there gathering dust.

Anyone know what this blizzard gear is worth

I picked up this crew neck from my local good will and it doesn’t seem to have any graphics or patches on it, yet it says it’s from blizzard entertainment 2017. I cannot find this anywhere online and was curious

I’ve got something

I’ve got something…

Hey WoW community, I just got this Collector’s edition. It has signatures of a lot of people who worked on warcraft, I would assume. Can anyone please tell me the story behind this? Or maybe someone knows anything why it has signatures of main devs and Blizzard management at the time? Any information will be very highly appreciated.

If anyone can help me identify signatures of people, that will be highly appreciated as well. Thank you!

It’s brand new inside, but I am not going to take anything out as I am afraid to touch it.

Thank you all.

Looking at the new Space Marine video game makes me sad about the potential StarCraft could've had as a franchise

Diablo but Cyberpunk

I came across a music cover on Tristram theme that made with synthesizers from an artist and i'm blown away. I thought to myself that Blizzard should definitely need to create a cyberpunk Diablo game. Can you imagine the atmosphere, where diablo takes place in an dystopic future world under the same philosophy of the previous games.? I think it would be good and fresh. What do you think about...

Roundup: current information (and leaks) related to Blizzard's unannounced game

Hello, so I've been very intrigued by this mysterious project. Here is a dotpoint list of current leaks, info and listings related to it as of tonight:

  • First things first, this is not related to the cancelled survival game "Odyssey", it is a brand new team in Blizzard

  • there have been many job listings recently related to this project. source: https://careers.blizzard.com/en

* Many King employees have been moved onto this project (source: LinkedIn). despite this, the game is a AAA console/PC project according to job listings EDIT: it is for another smaller project

Aaaaand thats it so far! of course, take some of this with a grain of salt. it could be canned like Odyssey after all. Hope you guys found use of this roundup :D

Push back.

Why does every class need a push back mechanic. Design the classes better.
