Everyone complaining about WHO is getting their code needs to just stop. WHO is getting their code is irrelevant to us. The only two important pieces of information that matter are:
The source code will be first given to an existing Legacy project which we believe to be the most in line with our core values.
Furthermore, an important part of Nostalrius' volunteers are already working there, some under different names.
This had to happen this way. Stop and think about it for a minute. Blizzard HAS MET ALL OF THE NOST STAFF. If Nostalrius put up another server with their name, with their staff.. What do you think Blizzard would do at that point? It's not about playing whack a mole with a server company anymore, it would be a direct lawsuit involving these individuals.
You say "what a let down" ... I say "welcome back"
As far as I'm concerned, this is Nostalrius with a new name, using a new server as a means to hide from and undermine Blizzard.
Edit: The server is not hosted in France..
It's hosted in Ukraine under the company OWL PROTECT LLC.
You people fail at networking.
