What are the LL equivalency in SC:R turn rate?

I finally ran the tests for this tonight:

+ Show Spoiler [Data] +
All frame counts are from 60fps videos (~16.67ms per frame) of the time it takes
for a probe to begin moving after the click indicator becomes visible.

Blizz Rate 8:
15 frames
14 frames
15 frames
17 frames
16 frames

Min: 14 * 16.67 = ~233ms delay
Average: 15.4 * 16.67ms = ~256ms delay
Max: 17 * 16.67 = ~283ms delay

Blizz Rate 12:
11 frames
13 frames
10 frames
14 frames

Min: 10 * 16.67 = ~166ms delay
Average: 12 * 16.67ms = ~200ms delay
Max: 14 * 16.67 = ~233ms delay

Blizz Rate 12 - High latency:

Min: 11 * 16.67 = ~183ms delay
Average: 11.83 * 16.67 = ~197ms delay
Max: 15 * 16.67 = ~250ms delay

Blizz Rate 12 - Extra High latency:

Min: 12 * 16.67 = ~200ms delay

Blizz Rate 16:

Min: 8 * 16.67 = ~133ms delay

ShieldBattery:

Min: 13 * 16.67 = ~216ms delay

ICCup L2:
15 frames

14 frames
16 frames
13 frames

Min: 13 * 16.67 = ~216ms delay
Average = 14.2 * 16.67 = ~236ms delay
Max: 16 * 16.67 = ~266ms delay


Summary of that is that, contrary to a belief which I've seen espoused quite often lately, a rate of 8 is roughly equivalent to 1.16 lan latency (maybe a frame slower, hard to say super precisely without a lot more data). Increasing the latency on turn rate 12 to High seems to increase the variance without meaningfully changing the average latency (but is still faster than what lan latency would have been).

Based on your data I can't disagree, but honestly turn rate 8 feels smoother to me and more responsive than iCCUP ever did.

What turn rate did iCCUP use?

Guys, is it just me, or did they add acceleration to the screen scroll?

I can't move the screen precisely and quickly because of it.

I feel the same. Then again, yesterday I learned that you can set rally points with a simple right click, so I don't have a lot of confidence in what I think is true about BW anymore.

I hope Blizzard can get some experienced map makers to fix some of the maps up in the ladder pool (if its going to be those maps for a while). Had a ramp vortex happen to me on Arcadia (had the game won but still chaffed about it).

As someone who literally got an E rank on ICCUP and played in a D- tournament where the commentators made fun of me for A-moving a reaver cross map, I really love the matchmaking system. I sat down for an hour, and played 4 games against SC2 players trying out BW for the first time. I did two ZvZs, and both times I was the only player to make Mutalisks. It was great. Just by having a vague sense of what units to make, I'm stomping people left and right

Jokes aside, as clearly bugged as the ranking is, this is a million times better than ICCUP was for me. I wanna play BW as a Zerg. I push a button. Boom. Done. I love it. No people who can't make and don't know it, no Russian potato farmers where I get 1 FPS due to lag, no getting kicked for playing Zerg. I just push a button and go. For us more casual players, it can be hard to state how big a deal this is.



Match making is the best feature. No more spamming iccup channels for games.

I feel like this alone is going to extend the popularity for quite a while.

I'm just curious, but how were you setting rally points before?

Thanks for the test, but I would not come to the same conclusion. A ~15% longer delay time is significant. Basically your data proves, that L2 is indeed right inbetween turn rate 8 and 12, so providing an additional turn rate 10 option would probably be useful to get the L2 setting back.

Switching it to high quality once it's loaded does the trick for me, maybe even medium if it's really bad.

Don't worry, I am already working on it. Lots of other things on my list of things that really ought to finally be done by now, though...

Unfortunately Blizzard never bothered to speak to any map makers (or listen to ones that reached out to them...), so as it looks like now remastered is but a setback to map-making. I guess we'll have to wait for ScmDraft to support HD graphics for a final verdict though... They seem unwilling to even change definite bugs, probably based on a shady notion that this could cause gameplay changes...

Looking at Arcadia: Yes, there are two ramp vortices: Top right an bottom left main. Ugly. Will do a quickfix. I guess edited map versions do not give ladder points though...

EDIT: Here's a quickfixed version of Arcadia 2.02. Quickfixed meaning all I did was solving the two ramp vortices while doing my utmost to avoid screwing up anything else. Whether a way outdated map such as Arcadia is really worth sinking any more work into is up for debate...

reEdit: Freak got to it.

Aren't the maps serverside though? They are not in my starcraft map folders and neither is the whole [Popular Maps] folder.

The ladder maps are in the data files (just like the map files for the campaigns). Thats how they can add those band-aid graphics for ramps and bridges in (at least that seems too be the gist of what some of the more hacky folks over at SEN have figured out so far).
