You could tell how much J. Allan Brack had to avoid mentioning the game when he was talking about all of their remasters.
"Just like we did in Starcraft remastered! . . . "
Now what?

I speak of his strategy games and he said only SC.
It has a section of strategy games where you are only SC. Instead of a SC section.
I mean they chop their own tail.

I felt that deafening silence too. Made a point to mention SCR while talking about D2R… and that was it.

I felt it too. Not even a mention??? AT LEAST let us know that you are aware of the many problems Reforged has and that you are working HARD to fix these issues.
But no. Sadly.
We havn’t heard anything in many months now. It’s frustrating to say the least.

I laughed and had to cover my mouth when it became so blatantly obvious that he was avoiding any mention of wc3r. I’m confused how they decided it’d be intelligent to advertise d2r now before wc3r is even complete.

Bliz didn’t flag them. Bliz could just remove them if they didn’t want them. Flags come from the community.

Can we please know which company is working on Reforged now? The team was recently dismantled and it’s unknown which team is working on the game according to an article on Bloomberg:
Until last year, the Diablo II remake was set to be developed by Blizzard’s Team 1, part of the company’s Irvine, California, campus that had become known for reworking classic games. Its most recent release, in January 2020, was a remake called Warcraft III: Reforged. The title was poorly received due to glitches and missing features, earning 59 out of 100 points on the review aggregator Metacritic — the lowest score a Blizzard game has ever gotten.
Members of Team 1 met to discuss what had gone wrong. Internal Blizzard documents reviewed by Bloomberg pinpointed the game’s failures on poor planning, miscommunication and a rushed release due to financial pressure from management, among other factors. For example, Blizzard announced the game in November 2018 and began taking pre-orders for 2019 without informing most of the development team beforehand, according to several people who worked on Warcraft III: Reforged.
Team 1 wanted to avoid repeating the mistakes of Warcraft III: Reforged on its next project, the remake of Diablo II. Shortly after the postmortem, however, Blizzard pulled that project from the team and put the division behind Diablo IV in charge. A group at Vicarious Visions is also working on the remake, which was known as Diablo II: Resurrected.
On Oct. 15, 2020, Blizzard informed members of Team 1 that it was reorganizing the entire division, according to the people who worked on Warcraft III: Reforged. In the following weeks, members of the team were given opportunities to interview for jobs elsewhere within Blizzard. Those who did not find positions in the company were gradually cut. Others left for independent studios recently started by high-profile company veterans, such as Frost Giant Inc. and DreamHaven Inc., started by Blizzard co-founder and former Chief Executive Officer Mike Morhaime, whose departure widely signaled the beginning of Activision’s takeover.
Team 1 was also responsible for the games Heroes of the Storm and StarCraft II. Blizzard slowed down development support of Heroes of the Storm in 2018. On the same day that Blizzard said it was reorganizing the division, it announced publicly that StarCraft II was ending all ongoing development.
Blizzard has promised to continue fixing and updating Warcraft III: Reforged, although it will likely do it with a different outsourced team. A spokesperson wouldn’t confirm who is handling continued development of Warcraft III: Reforged but said “we are still committed to updates in support of the community.

a friend of mine made a backup copy of reforge on a seprate hard drive than refunded the game after removing the drive. He is able to apparently play it offline with out it being on the account (no clue how) but he is exporting all the model so he can use them in his copy of the battle chest he order on Amazon than updated it to v1.29.

If what you say is true, this is inconvenient because if having a mod of the game as a Reforged mod in previous versions, it would leave the original game in the background 
. I guess you should post it on a forum like reddit or hive
you misunderstand understand. He created a backup copy of the game with the folder called “WCIIIR Backup” than he took and placed the entire game in said folder on an exter drive. disconnected that drive, uninstalled the original and refunded it. The game still appears to work and using a model viewer/exporter was able and continues to export the models and textures of reforge. He intends to than edit them make them better and than release a “Overhaul mod” for Warcraft 3 V1.29 you can still find battle chest version on amazon and if you have the original disc you just update to v1.29 and you will be good. so hopefully he finishes and maybe we all can have something worthy of the name Warcraft III.
I think i will be play Stronghold legends or Stronghold Warlords until he finishes.
If this was just recently, your friend is in for a disappointment when the DRM kicks in.

Or at least let us know that they’re aware of the many problems, but they have no plans to resolve them at this time. The truth is far better than what can be left to the individual imagination of the thousands of disappointed fans, and the hundreds of thousands of disappointed blizzard customers across all their games.
Yeah, it takes 30 days for the DRM to kick in.
I hope that happens, as I really liked the new assets. Including all the new doodads and such. I have 1.30.4 backed up, and it’s blocked in my Firewall so it’s not gonna spam me pestering me to update it.
