DarkBlizz

With the beta finished for now, I was wondering which AI has been kept up to date with the patches, and of those, which is considered the best AI?

Thanks!

It was not the smartest thing for them to announce this project on a public website.  Whenever one works on high-profile hack like a Bnet 2 emulator, one needs to operate in total secrecy.  What did they think, that they will just start developing a product that threatens the SC2 economic model (Blizzard removed LAN play for a reason), and Blizzard will just look the other way while they are making some real progress? 

One must only release the product when it is complete, and even then, you want to leak it, not post it on a website that can be linked to you.  This is how the successful hacks have been released... 

I am sure there are other teams working on this stuff, and will release it when ready.  They may also wait till the retail release, so that Blizzard would not adapt to their method before the retail even goes gold.

You have no experience with blizz emus obviously...

Lets do some step by step logic here so nobody can get confused:

What is Blizzards biggest cash cow, that they want to maintain un-emulated? WoW

WoW teams have been working out in the open for YEARS now emulating WoW.

So why, after years of open work by other teams, on blizzard's biggest money maker, would they have to maintain total secrecy about a emulator that will emulate something blizzard isn't making a dime off of?

No reason except they are not nearly as far as they attempt to represent.

True, I have do not know anything about WoW related stuff.  I do remember FSGS getting something in the area of a Cease and Desist notice back around 10 years ago...  And then the WC3 TC for SCBW also getting shut down by Blizzard. 
In any case, one can never be too careful when working on this kind of stuff, even if WoW has pirate servers that are not being taken down by Blizzard.  From what I see on the internet, the general trend is..  you go public with something illegal, and it gets popular enough, you are going to get shut down.
