You can play SC2 if you want MBS and other stuff. Broodwar is a different kind of game. You can choose your strategy game, but mechanics is part of what broodwar is. It also effects the balance o the game.

edit: and it's not just a strategy game, it is real time strategy game.

These bug fixes will change the balance slightly in most cases but Valks are disgustingly good AvA so Terrans are going to have a great time against Zerg air.

While these 2 are focused on valks and goons aren't there rarer situations with other units having the same problem? I remember the sprite bug kicked in for another unit but I don't remember which.

IIRC in certain rare cases carriers would not launch interceptors.

Marines also get that stuck until stop bug, it's very annoying early game TvP when a probe survives because of it heh.

Rofl. I played competetive when you still were shitting your pants.
But there are people these days just not having time to train 24/7 anymore or never were good at pc games.
And you will see once you hit 30 or above you are getting slower and slower.
I personally have problems with my wrist and cannot play >200 apm anymore.

Those people i meantioned will never play competetive so it would not have hurt to add an extra mode for those people.

Is there any additional information on matchmaking? Is it coming with 1.18a or will be available only in a later patch when SC:R is available?

Well this is quite unexpected, they're actually going to finally fix the dragoon stop bug and the valk misfire?!

I hope mca is updated accordingly largely because that's what I use to stream...

to play the campaign u dont need 150 apm,now i see 2 problems here,
#1 you want to play at the lvl you are used to. the better for you is to acept the reality that u will not be the player from your youth,and play slower and lower lvl.(dont worry boxer yellow and old pros know this.)
#2 like in football there is age limit to perform.now im sure BW is more than a game and this is the reason it will survive any game

We don't even need BW HD, this patch is all we need.

I feel bad for Shieldbattery though, it was such an awesome project
If only Blizzard had faced the truth earlier and decided to release this patch 2 years ago...

Valks not shooting when too many units/sprites on the map.

I'm a hard advocate against MBS and MUS cap above 12 in competetive. However, I don't see the problem with having an optional mode with MBS and MUS cap above 12 for the campaign or LAN games. Isn't there a hack for MBS btw?

Once this patch hits, where is everyone migrating? Is West/East servers coming back and everyone will play there like the mid-2000s?

I'm assuming this will pretty much kill iccup (and shield battery, though I never even went there once)?


Also side question:

Price point of SC:R in the summer? I know I read somewhere earlier in this forum BW will be free now, but I'm sure that doesn't mean SC:R will be... they have to capitalize on this momentum since they've not made much money on BW over the past 15 years lol.
