This reminds me of all the failed patches over the years.

Get lost with your exaggerated shitposting lol. "Bad" company, compared to what?

Greetings Cerebrates, Executors, and Commanders,

We'll be updating StarCraft to version 1.18.2 today, starting at 2:00 PM PDT. We expect the maintenance to last 3 hours. Notes:

Specific Changes & Improvements
- Updated Protoss warp in effect to reduce the population of cool guys wearing sunglasses at night
- Bent light - or the lack thereof - to our will by recreating the stacking shadow effect

Bug Fixes
- Fixed control groups not saving while mouse buttons are down
- Improved command performance during extremely high APM - we are still optimizing so players with 300+ APM are recommended to turn off VSync and FPS cap so refresh rates can keep up with your actions
- Fixed building confirmation sounds not playing when selecting a building off screen
- Fixed sound cutting out at low FPS

Known Issues
- Crashes caused by 256 bit color compatibility mode can be resolved by disabling that property
- Issues in the pipe can be found here:
https://us.battle.net/forums/en/starcraft/topic/20754425665

Cheers,
Classic Games

What is the sunglasses fix referring to?

oh my god.... please tell me that by years you only mean 2??

I can't tell if you are joking or not.
It seems like it was 3 or 4 years at least and then every patch broke the replays. There was no good option to patch switch until jca and bwchart in 2003 (?) Or 04.

I know that since patch 1.05 I have dreaded almost every patch.

Well 1.18 improves this immensely by making it impossible to patch-switch to any other version easily I'm sure nobody has any cool replays they'd want to watch that happened before 1.16 or anything, though
Can you jam with the console cowboys in cyberspace?

Koreans and foreigners were complaining that protoss buildings warping in were too shiny/bright compared to before. Or something like that.

Question : Are you saying that units like Shuttle / Reaver are performing differently in new patch? Just wondering.

New update is out! https://us.battle.net/forums/en/starcraft/topic/20754476350?page=1

So far it's much better, haven't experienced any input loss after a few games. If they make it easy to quickly whisper people on fish I see no reason to stick with 1.16.

The amount of times I built a queen's nest really fast to get to hive, only to find the building was never set down because of this hotkey loss was killing me!! This is great news

Get lost with your exaggerated shitposting lol. "Bad" company, compared to what?


Your post is a shit post. You have no authority to banish anyone, moderate your own posts jerk.

Bad company - you could take it as relatively badly, meaning that others have done better for starcraft with much less resources, or you could take it empirically, they have misplayed every hand in starcraft for almost two decades now.

Bad company aka, they results are always underpar and every 'advancement' they make is at least a partial mistep.

I love this game, I have no loyalty to a company especially this one. You keep your Jersey shore bro-ish comments to yourself
You are an authority of nothing. Keep licking blizzards inner thigh maybe you will get to beta there next crap product.


(observation: If you don't realize the clusterfuck of terrible patches, then you should just keep your mouth shut... or you know provide evidence of my exageration)

(edit: removed a peice of inaccurate language)

Really the only complaint I have so far with 1.18.2 is that the stats don't load fast enough it seems, can't wait for matchmaking / ladder really....it will be absolutely huge! I noticed a pretty significant increase in players on all servers, this is great!

Not sure, but the mouse speed def. feels different on iCCup / Fish for me on both 1.16 and 1.18, the mouse speed on SB is perfect...

Off topic question : I wonder if they will patch the fact observers can hold position atop Turrets and not be shot down unless you spam attack move with turret, build another turret, or have a unit that can attack the observer.

I fixed this by disabling v-sync, give it a try.
