I played with a guy on PTR who recognized me from TL and unfortunately he dropped. He whispered me later with an apology. I was going to reply back but for some reason it said I couldn't whisper to that person.

To whoever you are, don't worry about it mate, it happens. Sucks we couldn't get that game in.

Can anyone confirm if the latency was changed to L2? The lag is still really bad today (pretty much as same as yesterday). 3v3 BGH games btw.

Reposting from Blizzard forum:

I just wanted to share some tips for the 64bit Windows 10 users. I got rid of sluggishness / lagginess and cursor issues. So, whoever reads this, please Give it a try and reply with your results.

What i did to have my game run without any of the mentioned problems:
-Right click the game executable Starcraft.exe and change the compatibility settings to the ones in the picture https://snag.gy/slo0jC.jpg (W95, Disable Scaling on high DPI and Run as administrator)

Now Run the game,
IMPORTANT: Make sure you click CANCEL the dialog -Do you want to allow Starcraft to the firewall whitelist?

open the options menu>Video
-Untick everything
-Select Windowed

You should now feel the game 100% smoother. Please guys give it a try and reply. If it works for you too, let other people know. Remember I'm on W10 64bit and I can't say if it will work for other older versions of Windows.

Setting the compatibility mode to W95 makes it so that none of the PTR gateways are displayed for me, they work when i uncheck that option tho. Mouse issue got fixed just by selecting "Disable Scaling on high DPI" and "Run as administrator".

Using Win7.

EDIT: It works!!

Ok, I am now making it work about 60% of the times I try. It is definitely not a solution but a vague workaround. I will keep doing this while the final solution comes from Blizzard. Meanwhile, I'll be waiting patiently (who am I lying to. I CANT WAIT! :O

)
