i have a question, if i created a new user id on my computer, so a seperate login, can i install 1.18 on that login, and still preserve my 1.16 on my main account.

or will that overwrite the original, and in the end causing me to have 1.18 anyways?

yup because using deceased, malware-ridden operating system is just the best.

also the best is having to use shifty third party launchers to run the game on sensibly updated operating systems.

for the holy trifecta of best i also punch myself in the cock whilst launching brood war.

when u hit cancel doesnt it let u in ?

For me the game freezes when I hit cancel. I'm not sure if this is a problem with my starcraft version or what. Have you done this with mcalauncher?


no, im on wlauncher
the game crashes with mca launcher after hitting cancel for me



When I use wlauncher I get random korean webites and icons appearing on my desktop. I don't hear anyone complaining how dodgey it is, am I missing something here?

you installed wlauncher with ads that's it. you can avoid that by unchecking boxes during the install.

No need to clean launcher settings, just rename file. Launcher will check for file exists first. If doesn't then open dialog will show up.

you need a serious antivirus to get rid of adlock, it took me like 2 days. also, uninstall wlauncher with the ads because it'll keep reinstalling it, then reinstall it without all the extras. it's annoying as fuck

lmfao really? the apologists are here already? i used mca64's launcher for 4 years and it has never done anything remotely "shifty." all i see is lost functionality with 1.18, literally no benefits. i hope fish sticks with 1.16, perm ip bans anyone who changes hotkeys, and leaves 1.18 to rot.

edit this was meant to be an edit to my previous post..

I spent the last 2 weeks using the PTR version with modified hotkeys. The modified hotkeys is what made me come back.

Well now I'm gone. I will NEVER come back to SC/BW if they don't put the custom hotkeys back in. Wtf. Now that I'm used to comfortable hotkeys in BW I can't experience the "mechanically interesting" version anymore. I prepared myself for this goddam release with the modified keys. WHY ????

SO DISAPPOINTED
