At this rate I'm worried the patch will take not just another week but a month at least. Not to mention the release of Remastered.

But all in all, having the game work properly is most important.

no way the PATCH is being played competitively by year end, let alone a bugless version of bwhd
Have you considered the MMO-Champion forum? You are just as irrational and delusional with the right portion of nostalgic populism. By the way: The old Brood War was absolutely unplayable

Are they releasing frequent updates? Maybe they are working only on a big update that will solve all buggs

Apologies, this is a bit off topic. What's the reasoning behind this bigger than usual update if a remastered version is coming out in the near future?

Remastered isn't free. Classic BW will be free to play and they want it to be compatible with BW:R- hence the big update.

That's a very strange decision. I figure most starcraft fans with purchase BW:R, and I highly doubt newer players would even want to get near the classic. This is assuming that their f2p business model is to introduce newer players to the game. Seems like unnecessary work to make them compatible imo.

Regardless, I hope it won't affect BW:R patches because of some incompatibility issues.

Well they are both using the same game engine more or less. Personally I think Blizzard might be using Classic as a kind of "pseudo-beta" and sending patches & changes from Classic upstream to Remastered.

Or at least that's what I would do.

"Hey, everyone suddenly wants to play one of your favorite games! But you have to buy a different edition to even play it with them and also their version of the game is much better than yours." is basically the situation to avoid. This way, people can join in and play using the original version, and the remastered doesn't look like SC2 level graphics quality so it's not like it's a spectacular upgrade enough that people would play the remastered but not the normal anyway. It just looks like polished BW. This model screws over less people.

Also I've gotten like 5 people more interested in brood war with the sentence "It's free and it's got customizable hotkeys", so I'm all in favor of this.

I'm still surprised that they're managing to plan on getting this cross-compatibility working. I can't think of another remastered game that also has cross-compatibility with their legacy versions, so I wasn't expecting SC:R to actually have that feature.

I would equate it to the graphics toggle for Halo Anniversary. You can play with the original graphics or the higher res models.
