To clarify on some of the Warcraft 3 issues;

 

 

No clans

No profiles

Can no longer have more than 1 account

No more custom campaign functionality

No more Reign of Chaos balance for the Reign of Chaos campaign

No more built-in tournament functionality

No more The Frozen Throne menu screen

No more LAN functionality

No more offline games versus the AI

No more cross-chat with Diablo 2 players

No more /commands

Removed friend list

Removed custom game filter

Custom game list is no longer global - you can't play custom games with people from other regions

No MMR system

No custom keybinds

Removed the Dryad's "I'm so wasted" voice line, possibly others missing that have yet to be discovered

Cut all the promised new cutscenes

Cut all the new English voice acting

New foreign dubs which are inferior and compulsory, can NOT be changed back

Cut promised new story content

Arthas vs Illidan cutscene looks like cheap fanmade YouTube content

Menu is awful and unfinished with chat clipping

The end of match summary is completely butchered and doesn't tell you useful info

The old client is gone, even if you don't own reforged you're forced into replacing it if you ever connect to bnet

Custom maps now have a report button so blizzard can ban maps and ban people hosting them

 

And finally, remember that this was delayed before release
