C'mon guys. I'd love to play on steam but I am not abandoning my year old facebook mpq account to do so. Why is this so hard?

The biggest deterrent is probably how disgustingly easy it is to hack/mod/etc on a PC, as opposed to a mobile device. There used to be linking of Steam to Facebook, but as far as I know, it was removed due to exploits.

You remember incorrectly then, though to be fair it was like half a year before you actually joined. They only did it for the PC beta signups, and the real reason it wasnt carried forward is because they had to overwrite the info between the save manually for every single account.

Seemingly. Just what I heard, apparently I heard wrong.

When you say they had to overwrite something, do you mean client-side or server-side?

IIRC, you created a dummy pvp account on the steam version, and then they overwrote it with the mobile account. So...server side?

That's absurdly weird. I wonder why.

You can link your Facebook to Steam. You do it with the Facebook button on your Steam profile. This doesn't help you link the two in MPQ though. As far as I was told by D3, that isn't going to happen...
