Yeah, but I'm not all that happy with the space scene feeling more like a western. Serenity'Firefly did it better I think. But all in all, I also like the interactive things between missions, and the added thought they put into things like the arcade game in the Cantina, and the upgrades you can purchase. It gives you things to chase in missions that will benefit you in the game as you go on :D

You lost points for saying you like Real-ID. Check how much feedback and unhappy fans responded to this blog only.

Ag, you one of the easy quotes of the day kinda guys... It's not as easy as that... If I don't use it, how else am I gonna get easier connection to familier players to get a game going? I HAVE to use it, there is no choice! That's part of the issue!

well its not really that bad once u are use to it. besides the wow guys have been using it for awhile. the only issue i really have with the sc2 version is i cant invite or accept invites while in a game that can only be done on the main menu

OK, I misunderstood. Thanks IceQ for clearing it up with me in a personal chat.
How I understand it works is like this:

There are 2 friends lists in SC2.

One using Real-ID for personal friends and others you can trust with your real name and so on. Adding someone with their email addess adds them to the Real-ID friends list and both the sender and receiver of the request must accept before the contact will be added.

The other is a run o’ the mill friends list to keep players you liked playing with in close contact for future games. That will show only the player’s character name (no real name). And if I understand correctly, that is what the Char name and code is for.

Is that about right IceQ?
