So, matchmaking system will be available only in remastered version, or in 1.18a? Or they just add it when remastered version will be released on both versions?

from https://us.battle.net/forums/en/starcraft/topic/20753875497
Matchmaking will not be included as part of 1.18. It is currently slated to be available to everyone once we release SC:R.

Hi toriak!

1.18 will include native Fish server, but SC:R will give us actual matchmaking.

Anybody understands how exactly this fish integration will take place? Is it just adding the Fish server on the gateway list by default? Will foreigners be allowed to play? How is the latency from Americas (South America, anyone?)? I've never played on Fish, only on ICCup.

I believe it'll be like just having an extra server on startup, foreigners will have to make accounts and do the usual thing - look up a guide on TL about playing on the Fish server, it'll be explained. As for how South Americas -> games, you'll definitely have to snoop around.

Same as Windows 9. They do this to emphasise how huge the changes are.




They skipped 9 because it would cause a lot of problems with how older programmers were coded.

That's right folks, I definitely heard an ethnic twang in that voice, so everyone put your guesses on the screen. It's everyone's favorite game, it's Guess the Minority!!!

The reason why you might've thought you experienced a forced delay, by that I mean an artificial one to emulate the the WC3 experience in Dota, is because of UDP interpolation and lack of network prediction. The reason they haven't made a predictive systems is that they don't work that well for an ARTS/RTS unlike for an FPS. This can inherently make it feel delayed depending on the interpolation settings and servers, which Valve has improved during and since the beta. However this certainly is not an effort to emulate the experience of WC3 or anything among those lines nor on purpose per se, hence my initial reaction.

I guess you could technically call this artificial delay but that's often misunderstood. This system also has its advantages compared to other solutions.

Oh and not to mention other input issues and bugs which definitely were not on purpose.

Not sure if I understand you correctly, but I think I have an idea what you mean.

Did you ever play Quake 3? When you would shoot your gun, you wouldn't immediately see the shot until the server received your data and confirmed it back to the client. So I guess that's what you're saying, right?

This might be true, sure. I'll do experiments with Dota2, SC2 and HotS. Maybe that will help to clear it up. I'm expecting SC2 to have an artificial delay of around 200ms. Let's see how the other games compare

If what you say is true, I'll expect a delay of around 100ms in Dota with my 40 ms ping.

As far as I'm aware Quake has used the exact same network model(?) as the Source engine since QuakeWorld.

Sorry for being awfully off-topic guys. Hope you find 1.18 and SC:R to be great, since it's looking quite solid so far.

Yea, I don't wanna derail this thread either, but I promised I'll do an experiment and post results... so let's go

I will make it easy on myself and not upload the videos I used for measuring. The results are boring and I don't know how to interpret them anyway.

So, I tested "netcode delay" in SC2, Heroes of the Storm and Dota2. And the result is the same for all 3 games ... it took about 9 frames after mouse click till any visible reaction. I recorded at 60 fps, so all three games were delayed by about 150ms.

In Dota2 I had a ping of 28-30ms. SC2 and HotS don't display the ping, but it probably was around 30-50ms.

Conclusion? 150ms delay in all three games? That would be unacceptable for first person shooters. Maybe this kind of netcode is an "obvious best choice" for MOBA and RTS. No clue.

Doesn't seem like BW will ever have widescreen or higher resolution options, whereas the Remaster will (unless I'm mistaken). That's enough for me to want to purchase the Remaster.

I still don't understand how battle.net servers will work. Are they using the old servers? Will they change the 250ms latency limit to LAN or simply play on Fish for that?

Doubtful. It just went up on the PTR and its nighttime in America. It'll probably go live later on?
