I'm using intel HD 3000 and my driver is latest. The thing is, I was running it fine before this PTR update. My friend is having the same problem with intel HD 3000.

Lag, at least for me, has improved big time with this patch. I'm in Toronto and quite some distance from the California server. Most of my games prior were so laggy they were unplayable. After today it's like they added an eastern server or something. Even 4v4 bgh games are lag free.

There are still huge issues with replays and hosting.

Like 50% of the time someone has hosted a replay, I cannot see or join it. Other people I know are experiencing this same thing.

server location has nothing to do with ingame lag, as the game is still p2p. (unless blizzard changed that)

Does anyone else have an issue where you cant load most of the auto generated replays? It says the filename is too long.

Just tried the update.
Encountered 3 problems.

1. When installing it my antivirus detects an adware and suspicious files (it happened with last PTR build too).
http://i.imgur.com/aiL5LHY.png

2. My units group controls hotkeys 6 and 8 are still not working (it was already the case with last PTR build) making the game unplayable. TT

3. Hotkeys being case sensitive. Bug has already been mentioned.

They're investigating the case sensitivity bug, and it's a known issue that keys 6 to 8 don't work on AZERTY keyboards
