i know i am spamming this on several threads but, what will happen is that the previously legit players who purchased the game before will download cracked or warez versions of the game so they wont lose their 60 bucks to some lame ban. this is the future for the series of this game. i hate to say it, but blizzard is actually going to cause more people to get ahold of illegal or warez copies of this game so they can play it without fear of banning.
my 2 cents.

So true, was just wondering on what had happened. - this will be a major driver getting (currently) legit people into the piracy scene...
Kind of sad development if you think of it. The real issue I have with this is the fact that this is not the Developers fault but the money hungry mongrels sitting in Marketing / Business sections that are responsible for this kind of crap.
I used to be a GM Team Lead for many different games (AAA titles) and had to make so many decisions that I would have done differently if there was no Marketing / Business involved. The publishers and their hunger for "moar" money are the ones killing seriously good products!
Don't be mistaken, Developers care! But in most cases they have no choice in the matter.
Best example: Minecraft - this one just works and all without the need of some d***head Business Development Manager at the helm.
Good Job ActiBlizz...
So is it comfirmed yet that you get banned? single player only of-course.
I've already done the game on hard mode with achieves, but i want some help for brutal
It is confirmed. Most bans happen around when the new ladder season starts.
