Reforged Patch: Online Only, LAN Gone?!
0
Hey everyone, just saw some news about Warcraft 3: Reforged that's got me scratching my head. Apparently, with the new Forsaken Kingdom expansion and 3.0 patch, Blizzard decided to make the game always-online, even for singleplayer, and they totally removed LAN support. Seriously, who thought this was a good idea after all the flak Reforged already got? It feels like a huge step backwards, especially taking away LAN which was such a core part of WC3's identity for many of us. I get they added a new graphics mode and increased unit selection, but forcing online play just takes the fun out of it for a lot of people here where internet can be iffy sometimes.
