Cannot connect to battle.net - possibly DNS resolving issue - actually lack of config file problem #113

Hearthstone keeps on showing "Oops! Playful sprites have disrupted...", which is, apparently, and unknown network error (if we believe some internet forums).

Doing a little bit more digging around, I found that if I do sudo nano /etc/hosts and add the following record in the bottom:

137.221.65.5 REGION.actual.battle.net

Then the game does not show the mentioned error, just saying "Logging into Battle.net" forever basically.

Next, I've tried googling a bit more and talking to AI, until I realized, that the main culprit is not being inside of "heathstone-linux/hearthstone" folder. If you go into it and then do ./Bin/Hearthstone.x86_64, then everything seems to work.

I think it's worthwhile making a big notice in README.md as if there is "Playful sprites" error, then it's just because you're in the wrong folder ;)

Otherwise the issue can be closed. Thank you!
