Or to be on a LAN with an internet connection?  Most people I know at the moment will have some sort of internet gateway device that allows multiple people to use the same internet connection.

Wouldn't that game lag really bad?

Alex C:
Not if it's only being used mostly for authorization and such.

est:
Yeah, what Alex said.  Once a battlenet game is set up one of the players becomes the host, so if they are all on the same subnet then the traffic would become local.

est:
Obviously I am only speculating, so I could be completely wrong, but I would find it really odd if they cut out LAN play entirely.

I have friends who Hamachi their Starmans.

Which, technically, means they only use LAN.
