The first step in the integration will enable StarCraft&reg; II: Wings of Liberty players to quickly add Blizzard gamers who are friends on Facebook to their Battle.net friend lists, facilitating their social gaming experience on the service.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Blizzard seems to think this will make it &#8220;easier than ever to connect with friends on Battle.net and play StarCraft II and future Blizzard Entertainment games together.&#8221; What it probably means is that your 10 year old cousin can laugh at your pitiful ladder stats and the love interest you have been e-stalking will see you for the n00b you really are.<\/p>\n<p>Apparently the Facebook integration will be available for testing through the beta program soon. Blizzard also hinted at that there will be &#8220;other Facebook-related features on Battle.net&#8221; in the future, so hold your breath for the announcements.<\/p>\n<div><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/forum\/showthread.php?5623-Battle.net-Facebook-integration-on-the-way&amp;p=214704#post214704\" target=\"_self\">Discuss Battle.net-Facebook integration<\/a> in the forums<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Blizzard has revealed plans to integrate their new Battle.net with the ubiquitous Facebook<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":161,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sma_x_autopost_status":"idle","_sma_x_autopost_error":"","_sma_x_post_id":"","_sma_x_attempts":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5902","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-pc"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5902","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/161"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5902"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5902\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5902"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5902"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5902"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
