Starcraft Patch 1.17.0 (unannounced/discovered) - Page 4

Mod note: It is likely that this is an internal testing version not intended to be public yet. Battle.net reportedly does not work after patching, which indicates that it's not yet "released".

If http://ftp.blizzard.com is a scam, why does the official battle.net website link to it?

http://classic.battle.net/files.shtml

All of the font and sound utility downloads on this page link to http://ftp.blizzard.com. People claiming it's a scam should do a simple google search before posting false information in a thread.

I played on SC Patch 1.17.0. I didn't notice any differences.



Well once all your passwords and credit card number will be stolen, surely in few days you will notice a difference HAHAHAHAHAHAHA


btw amazing, when you enter ftp.blizzard.com you ping ftp://blizzard.com not http://ftp.blizzard.com
if you connect to a ftp server, url can't start with http, it is not the same protocol even using an internet browser.


Why do you have to talk like a douche bag?
Not sure why you are thinking that I'm stupid enough that my card will get stolen.
Too bad that you don't know anything about Korean online bank system.
I closed my US bank account in the U.S. long time ago.

Just for you to know how Korean bank works. Korean bank website doesn't always require you to type your damn ID.
We have an another way of using security certificate file(that is downloaded from your account setting).
We also need to install security program(s) to log in before you get an access to log in.
Password requires at least one from each special alphabet(such as !, @, #, etc), upper and lower case, and number.
If you want to transfer the money through online, you need a OTP(One Time Password) number which is from the little remote looking item.
[image loading]

Btw, I didn't know you are that much of a faggot.
I will forgive you if you are planning to apologize after you read my post.



Also, who saves bank ID or password on web browser?

Why you should not download this malware:

1. New account makes post asking you to download mysterious exe file.

2. A different new account shills for the first new account encouraging everyone to download it.

3. Both accounts are from China, known for their elaborate internet scams.

4. Consider what you have to gain from downloading potential malware vs. what you lose from not downloading it.
i. You gain potentailly early access to single player on a new patch that does not change anything.
ii. You expose yourself to risk of getting malware.
iii. Not downloading it means you continue playing BW the way you always have.

5. Why should you listen to me (also a new account)? Because I'm telling you not to perform a risky action with no benefit to yourself.

Ok so you're not disputing that http://ftp.blizzard.com is an official Blizzard domain. Just so I understand you correctly, you're claiming that hackers, possibly Chinese ones, uploaded a file to an official Blizzard server?

That's why I was curious it about its legitimacy.

edit: at least we got our answer for whether or not it's real - check the modnote.

Can someone who has taken the risk to dl do a comparison on the "turn rate". If they change unit acceleration, that could significantly effect gameplay.
