Connect with Your Friends Using Real ID
[blizzquote="Nethaera;http://blue.mmo-champion.com/t/24702231147/connect-with-your-friends-using-real-id/]We’ve just released a new preview of our upcoming Real ID feature, ( [url]http://www.battle.net/realid/[/url] ) a new, optional way to connect with your friends on the revamped Battle.net. When you and a friend agree to become Real ID friends, you’ll have access to a number of options designed to enrich your social gaming experience, including cross-game chat, broadcast messages, the ability to keep in contact with your friends without having to keep track of their different characters across realms or across games, and much more. Check out our new Real ID page here. [url]http://www.battle.net/realid/[/url][/blizzquote"]

Battle.net Real ID

One of our goals for the new Battle.net is to create the framework for an online gaming experience that is even more accessible, more engaging, and more entertaining than the previous Battle.net. Our new Real ID feature is an integral part of this effort, providing you with advanced ways for forming and maintaining meaningful relationships with your friends on the service.

Real ID is a completely voluntary and optional level of identity that keeps players connected across all of Battle.net. When you and a friend mutually agree to become Real ID friends, you'll have access to a number of additional features that will enrich your social gaming experience in new and exciting ways.

Read the Real ID FAQ for additional details.

Real Names for Friends
Your Real ID friends will appear under their real-life names on your friends list, alongside whatever characters they're playing. Gone are the days of having to remember which of your friends is which. You'll also see your friends' real names when chatting, communicating in-game, or viewing their character's profile.

Cross-Game Chat
With Real ID, friends can now chat cross-game, cross-realm, and cross-faction across all supported Blizzard games. In World of Warcraft and need more players for your Icecrown Citadel raid? You check your Real ID friends list to see if anyone's available, and sure enough, a couple of guildmates are playing a 2v2 ranked match in StarCraft II. Real ID makes it easy to ask them to come along.

Rich Presence
See additional information on your friends list about what your Real ID friends are up to. Find out what your friends are doing and which games and modes they're playing in real time. Invite that buddy just sitting around in Dalaran to play some StarCraft II with you without fear of interrupting a raid or a heated Wintergrasp match.

Broadcasts
Broadcast a short status message for all of your Real ID friends to see, whether you want to issue a call-to-arms or let your friends know about an important change of plans. You can also read your friends' broadcast messages on the "Recent Broadcasts" feed on the Battle.net welcome page -- kind of a "corkboard" to leave messages to your friends when offline or busy.

Friend Once, See All Characters
When you agree to become Real ID friends with another player, both of you will automatically see all the other's characters on your friends list. You'll even see any characters your friend creates in future Blizzard games, carrying your social network forward and helping you stay connected with the people you enjoy playing with most.

On a seriouse note, blizzard has their eyes on FB and now this chat "sounds" a bit like FB, lol I'd heavily laugh if blizz buys out FB

LMAO have to love how the fanbase demands the female furry . The realid things look great can't wait for them to add it (finally) and hopefully the Ruby Sanction soon after.

[Jolesole]

Nihilum got it first fyi.
Also the forum avatars will be updated later once everybody gets the client , so there will be finally a pic of a female worgen.

[MrPistachio]

Looks nice, Blizzcon's preview got me really excited about it because it's the kind of thing you'd always want but never think developers would care to do.

Edit:
Here you go, bibi.




Edit:
THE FEMALE WORGEN ARE NOT DONE. ZARHYM CONFIRMED THIS A BIT AGO. STOP WHINING PLOOZ.

Another Edit to put this on front page:
Blizzard confirmed in another thread that you have to except the invite for the friend information, and you can remove yourself from someone else's list that you previously accepted to be part of at any time.

[astronomic]
