I have the exact same issue, integrated GPU, it's very basic as far as I know but it runs 1.16 fine.


Yup. They're fixing it. Supposed to be fixed this patch with the lowered openGL requirement but it brought up other errors. But I suppose this issue is high on their priority list because a lot of people with intel HD 2000/3000 are complaining as well. Hopefully they will put out sth quick in the next days.

I still can't play in fullscreen, and the sensitivity is still bad in windowed fullscreen etc...
In life you can obtain all sorts of material wealth, but the real treasure is the epic feelings you get while doing something you love.

Anyone else having trouble hosting games? I didnt last version but this one even my friends cant join. Ive resorted to the old "join a room with a friend and both leave" trick. Its much easier if you have a voip instead of waiting for a chat message and trying to type in the room name to enter before it fills up lol

Anyone experiencing the game "Upgrading" every time you quit and go back into Battle.net? The version # reported is the same... I upgrade, launch and can play, but then a few hours later the whole process repeats.

Run the game as admin once and connect to battle.net. After it's successful, you can close the game and run it normally.

- i still cant do games like test12345/12345 it still errors out i have to do latters ... anoying

- fullscreen is still unplayable since to mouse feels like floating on water, so you have to play in windowed fullscreen

- graphic card still goes crazy like its killing pigs on steroids while its not going hot (a problem for new graphic cards with old games, still with 1.16 there was no such problem) it basicly makes it impossible play without headset and also scares me to destroy ma graphicscard

- we still need a name/password enter field to join replays fast, also we rly no need see passworded games so maybe a filtere here would help too

In windows, control panel, mouse properties there is a thing called Enhance pointer precision. Try turning it off. Some games use this setting instead of forcing their own.

Update graphics card to latest driver.If that still doesn't work then your gfx card is incompatible with the version of OpenGL Blizzard is using in 1.18 and you need to switch a different card in.Mostly affects cards 10 years old and up it seems.
