1.18 needs to be fixed ASAP. my zealots aren't dying correctly anymore. the german sound effect got replaced with the english one. what were they thinking? and seriously, how can this even happen? since everything else seems to be german, at least after checking for a second.

I prefer the german sounds over the English ones, too. Especially the Corair/Scots somewhat sneezing sounds are cool. In english they just go "poof". Though I never really understood why the german version had different sounds for a few units.

German voices are overall pretty awesome from what I remember.

They really broke BNET this time. The game list is not refreshing, so it takes forever to find a game that is actually current. Hopefully they will patch it asap.

Why blizz? Why would you release a patch like this and further separate the player base? I can't ladder on iCCup or Fish atm, and I don't think I've played more than 2 games since the release. I was super excited but playing vs some random noobs on US East in a public game isn't the way I get down on SC.

I still haven't seen a solid explanation to how to get iCCup working via using 1.16. I tried renaming my StarCraft.exe, I tried re-downloading the installer--but it just recognizes that I already have the game installed. I attempted to uninstall and reinstall, however, there's no longer the auto update to 1.16 from 1.15.2, so I was forced to download the 1.18 update. Maybe I'm missing something but I don't think I should have to become a detective to figure out how to make iCCup work etc.

Plus, all of these little cosmetic features that aren't working.. like /stats or profiles, or any of the above mentioned errors.

Why jump the gun? I JUST got used to the fact I didn't have to play the PTR and got back to 1.16 on iCCup and you did this..

It's great and all with the color issues, LAN improvements, etc... but two steps forward, one step back....

Have you tried the Iccup bw client?

Just uncheck GUIfixes box from mca and when it asks to update press cancel, you will be able to log on fish. Or else simply use wlauncher only.

The lobby bug is probably related to this blue post from yesterday.

Thanks for the update. We had a problem this morning with our Database getting backed up and has left a couple of stragglers behind.

Working on fixing this right now but will require you to restart the game client in a hour or so.

It is a little concerning that they don't have anyone on call or something to put this issue down if popped back up. I think it is becoming obvious this patch needed a couple more weeks on PTR.

The latest update was super quick for me. The initial one took a while, it had to basically download the entire game, 1.2 gigs I think.

Channels are acting strange though. If you enter a clan channel that doesn't have ops or isn't an allowed channel it still lets you join it?

I was in a clan channel yesterday and all was well there was a decent number of people in it. Now i can still join the channel but it doesnt show anyone it it not even myself and doesn't give me an error or anything. Super confusing.

I have to say, playing last night I felt that ingame was just a little... off! I don't know how else to put it other than it simply felt a little difficult to control, a little clumsy. I am not sure why but something is going on there.

I didn't enjoy that you have to click the chat input before being able to type when you join a game.

I didn't enjoy that you have to click-click to select your race, rather than click-drag.

Above all, that fuzzy feeling ingame is what concerns me most. I will have to test whether it's related to any slight changes in mouse speed/accuracy...


The biggest thing to me is I feel like keystrokes aren't registering and I have to press them a second time. It feels as if the game won't register more than one button being pressed at a time, so if you are doing 1a2a3a it has to be very clean and deliberate without any overlap or the game won't register.

I'm not sure about this, this is just what it feels like to me when I play. Like my key presses need to be staccato...

Thank god! I thought was my keyboard. If you press two keys very fast not always responds the command :\

I've had that feeling since forever with 1.16.1 (and 1.15). 4sh5sh6sh7sh8sh has to be distinct keypresses without overlap. Sure it's something new to 1.18?

Overlap in keypresses is not the problem, you can test it slowly. But there is certainly something strange here.

When you go to a hatchery and press s and release it immediately it will be selected instantly. When you hold the s key it takes a small pause. The result is that you can be really fast without overlap or slow with overlap.

Oddly this is not the case for every command. You can have two hatcheries hotkeyed on 4 and 5 and press 4-5 in very fast sequence, and always the hatchery 5 will be selected afterwards. If you have hatchery 5 selected and press s-5 in very fast sequence oftentimes the larva are selected afterwards.

I have to say in the long run I hold the view that every key and mouse command you give should be counted and respected. Judging by the other thread this is not without opposition.

the battle.net interface is stupid and inferior to the old one

1) it's a bitch to join a friend's game, in the old interface you'd be able to just click alt+j>enter if you've previously already been a friends game name

2) it's a bitch to join private games, it was a million times easier to input game name/pw with hotkeys instead of typing in the search function like a retard or scrolling through the trillions of game list like a pleb. friend follow programs would make this bearable but none of them work anymore

3) there's a bug where sometimes your game name shows up on game list as duplicates, making it harder for people to join the real one you're hosting

4) why is there a buffer/loading screen when creating a games? why can't it just be instant like 1.16?
