Thousands of people have signed a petition imploring Activision-Blizzard to put LAN play back into the game.
At the end of June, Blizzard announced that StarCraft 2 would not support LAN play. This did not go down well with fans of the series, and they did what gamers do in this kind of situation, they started a petition.
Blizzard may have brushed it off in July, when the petition only had 13,000 signatures, but in the last six weeks, things have changed significantly. At the time of writing, the total number of signatures stood at 100,452. To put that into perspective, the boycott against Left 4 Dead 2 had a little over 41,000 supporters, and that seemed to work pretty well.
The question now is whether or not Blizzard, more correctly called Activision-Blizzard, is going to pay any attention. If you want to sign the petition, you can find it here.
