friend list is linked to the bnet app so no limit most likely, that said the friend list is really buggy atm.

So if it can't find me a European after 10 minutes it starts branching out and searching for Americans/Koreans. Just sucks waiting for 10+ minutes for each game.
Latency feels good on ladder, but I can't confidently say what turn rate it is. I've lagged against koreans in 2 out of 3 games. One of the games was really good ping even though he was korean.
Thanks for the reply. I'm a fan of global matchmaking, but being stuck in a laggy game with ladder points on the line sounds pretty horrible.

If you use the friend list from Blizzard Launcher, the amount of friends you can have is unlimited iirc.

I logged in and got Brood War KOR-47
So many people;;

Koreans flaming me for lagging.
I've discovered the threshold for when the matchmaker starts matching me against koreans is after 700 seconds of searching.
I think I'm going to stay away from the ladder until more euros get the beta.

There is no other option really.
If you are a top foreigner, there aren't enough non-Koreans good enough. That's why everyone plays fish even if the connection is not as good. If you are not as good, the match maker probably don't have any problems finding opponents regionally. (hopefully, with people coming back for HD)
Can you still leave the game in the beginning without penalty? e.g. when lag is too bad?

How does SCR run on shit tier computers? Is it playable?
|
Can anyone with the remaster please answer the following questions:
1. How does the ladder ranking system work? Is there a global ladder that is sorted by points (as shown here https://starcraft.com/en-us/articles/20844309)? Are the points equal to MMR (base your opinion on if they move up and down in a similar way as MMR in SC2, or if there are other factors like bonus pool)?
2. How does the progression system and collection tab (as seen here https://starcraft.com/en-us/articles/20814255) work? Are there skins to unlock based on progression or is it only portraits?
3. How does the option to turn off pre-order skins work? Does it turn it off for everyone, or only on your end? And does it turn off other skins if there are any?

travesty who got invited to the SC:R Beta imo. Blizzard should have invited the top foreigners over the SC2 Pro players. Then again: it's Blizzard, what did i expect -.-

No luck. I don't think they ever asked for my b.net account so I'm not sure how they'd add me if they wanted to, which I don't think they wanted to. I think there are different groupings of people. Like for the event we went to, I didn't get offered flight/hotel to attend, I had to pay my own way, but I think some other people were taken care of by Blizzard.

Anyway it's 2 weeks guys. We will all play on it soon.

In a completely objective sense, given that Nony went 1-2 in the last round of a courage tournament in the midst of the most competitive era in BW history, there's an argument for his being the best foreigner of all time. Really bizarre he wouldn't be on Blizz's radar.
And I only refer to you in the third person to be objective. O well.

What is the turn rate for ladder? 8 or 12?

Ret has had big successes too, but i was talking about recent accomplishment and current best players, not the best players from 8 years ago. I'm fine with inviting some great players of the good old days and im looking forward to see them play. But going over players like trutacz, eonzerg, bonyth etc. in favor of those is just not right.

Blizzard aiming for big names from sc2 who drive a lot more viewers is totally understable but not including the current top foreigners and older famous people from BW is just blatant tasteless disregard.

I mean, look at the first showmatch from GG Together... neither has been a professional for basically 15 years. Grrrr... is a celebrity, but TheBoy? Blizzard could just give old legends, top players, and current actives all keys. They have very little to lose. The only excuse is they just don't have the resources to find everyone who "deserves" a beta key. That's actually a reasonable excuse, if it's true.
