Remove Battle.net Delay

General Discussion

The delay in battle net is an ancient relic which was an acceptable feature back in the early 2000’s when the average internet user used a 56k dial up modem.
As time progressed in WC3 people moved away from the battle net platform to get away from this issue as it is still solely tied to using official battle net

This is 2018 with the game scheduled to be released in 2019 and is no longer an issue, please remove this feature.
Not just for Reforged, remove it entirely for both versions of the game.

There is absolutely no need to have the inbuilt delay anymore and will be a massive improvement to game quality.

Agree, this is a very serious problem now that we don’t have bots or Delay Reducer. A lot of great games relied on that, like Sheep Tag, Prison Break, all of the mazing maps, etc.

I urge WC3 to consider looking at the source code for one of the Delay Reducer programs or look at the underlying concept behind reducing the delay and implement it. Or if anyone can figure out how to do it with these updates…

None of the old DR’s work, by the way.
