Where do you get off? I know everyone is entitled to an opinion but I
think Blizzard did an excellent job. I was an average fan of the first
Warcraft but when my friend and I discovered the modem play it was great.
Now, not only are graphics and sound effects better in War Craft 2, but
you only have to 1 game to play with a freind over the modem. GREAAAAAT,
no more $120.00 for 2 games so we can both play. If Blizzard adopted your
idea, more people would pirate the game, and in turn that would not only
affect the price of other products but it would also affect the quality of
Blizzards output in the future. In short, I think you should be thankful
for the progress Blizzard has made in network and modem play with their
"spawning technology" and quit advocating for something almost akin to
getting Drugs to be legal, an uphill battle that only helps the
drug-users.
