Oh wait. I don't want my 1.16.1 to get patched! I hope there's a way to install this separate.

Hopefully Fish will keep a 1.16.1 server... I don't want to update.

Happy to see it going live, but to echo the thoughts of others the removal of even limited custom hotkeys is going to turn the steep learning curve already into a cliff, even for someone with thousands of games in Sc2. Will of course be buying remastered and playing the patch but without even the option to use hotkeys designed in the 21st century it seems unlikely I'll personally be playing much competitive. BGH it is

Unless they fix those input changes I'm not going to upgrade or touch. This isn't patch for me, this is going back to beta.

Always keep a backup of a backup.

The real thing this patch has going is compatibility between all the new OS's, and how its networking system has made it easier for people to connect to other people.

Friends,

I misspoke when I said, "Patch will go live at 2pm." Intent was maintenance starts at 2 pm. We expect the window to be about two hours. Apologies.

Cheers,
Pete

my body is ready

I was too lazy to change the hotkeys during PTR so I'm fine with them not including it, and honestly it would feel strange for me to not have to lift my entire left hand and shift it to the right side of the keyboard to build pylons and probes :D

Seems so ... but I don't dare try downloading it. Is anyone not scared of ruining 1.16 bw and try if that's a stand alone client? xD

By starting bw and logging into battle.net and let it patch the old fashioned way? Or downloaded like the ptr client?

Just a word of warning for people that want to back up their 1.16. If you use the installer in this link it will find your starcraft install and update it to 1.18.

Would prefer a 1.18 installer like we had for PTR.

Sad that custom hotkeys got delayed. They worked well, even if the UI for remapping was a mess. I really hope they are added soon after remastered launches. Can't be bothered with classic hotkeys tbh.

Sure, 1.18 is a "different" BW. I have my iCCup BW and my Blizzard BW

Is iccup planning on updating to 1.18?
