"Stop making stupid assumptions". You are right, i should work with what they post here...Oh wait its just "OMG REMASTERED SUCKS ASS" Look at what this thread is about. It's purpose is to inform folks that fish was going to be gone. Of course, some people who have played on the server for years will be mad when they are having issues with RM till now and fish doesn't exist anymore. The point in the end stays. If you felt strongly about people posting "OMG RM SUCKS ASS" you could've just as easily asked what issues they are having and their system requirements. Already some posters have posted their specs including myself so take it or leave it.

Nope, don't feel bad at all. Want to elaborate on the problems you're having running remastered? I did earlier in the thread and I already posted my system specs as well. There have been other who posted their own issues and specs too if you are interested.

I've had no issues with 1.16.1 yet despite playing and fiddling with all the settings, I can't see to get SD graphics to look as good as 1.16.1 nor can I actually play the game without my laptop heating up like mad. On a side note, for anyone who was talking about fps lock (I've tried this already), I believe that was the cause of some pros having issues with command registration a while back (read it somewhere, not sure how they fixed this).

I think the biggest problem Blizzard is targeting 1v1
Brood War is a social game Not asolo game.

So is fish done completely or switching back to 1.61? A lot of posters seem to be implying the latter with the 1.61 grows comments.

I feel like the technical issues here have nothing to do with "good" or "bad" systems on the player's side. RM seems to be badly optimised as some people with weak machines have no problems and some with strong machines do. I remember that from when I played Guild Wars 2 actively. Despite from being horribly optimised in general, some people with weaker systems had next to no issues while some monster machines had insane fps drops. I think the problem is that Blizzard touched the basic graphic engine and fucked it up. This is easily imaginable knowing how bad documentation in the IT branch usually is and the fact that this is a 20 year old engine and basically nobody who has worked on it back then is still there...

On a side note, for anyone who was talking about fps lock (I've tried this already) If you have one of those smaller phillips-head screwdrivers, some spare thermal compound and rubbing alcohol then you should consider reapplying thermal compound on your CPU and iGPU. I always do that for all my laptops because the manufacturers/factory workers are always sloppy with this and put way too much, causing them to sound like vacuum cleaners when watching an HD youtube video or playing a game. Look up your laptop model on youtube with the word "disassembly" to see if it's not too difficult to do for your model.

I've done what you stated before though (built my own gaming rig in the past) but thanks for mentioning it regardless.
Side note: I made a mistake, my dedicated gpu has 1gb, not 512mb.

I'm not sure about your other problems but there's absolutely nothing you can do to fix the graphics other than play 1.16.1.
They just made the original graphics worse, supposedly because of some kind of limitation of the engine.

It's funny how Brain was so many years dead while Fish was around and now it's alive when Remastered came out but Fish is dead.

Low because today was jumgum. The server was being reevaluated and users use the Test Server.

its good that brain is on the rise again

Why is it that blizzard always manages to divide the community? . I seriously wish they would have done a proper release for SCR. The fact that i'm still getting "due to an error, a match could not be found" after I que for a ladder match is unacceptable.

If this is happening to you frequently, it's very likely due to your router. Make sure to port forward port 6112.

There was 14k+ people on kr server last night, seems the KR server is the place to be, not sure that all will leave KR server Blizz Ladder for Brain but we'll see....

Has StarCraft franchise ever been given out to public domain? The truth is that the Korean StarCraft community spawned off actual piracy, you might disagree with and criticize how Blizzard forces their rights back but it's not like South Korea owns the game. For all I know if they were really power and money hungry they could sue the hell out of Korea for stealing intellectual property and profiting from it for more than a decade like fish now with the in-game ads (Blizzard never really directly profited from their scene until recently, right?), but everyone knows that it would be a PR suicide so they seem to have some common sense in this matter.
I'd like the SD mode to get improved too, it looks really bad in comparison with 1.16. It's literally like they made the SD/HD changing button just for marketing purposes and to hear Artosis and Tasteless go "look guys how the game looked before the awesome remaster", except no, it never looked that way. Well maybe if I squint my eyes to a point where I can barely see. I have nothing against SC:R though as a whole

It's a weird alternate reality people are in when people are blaming Blizzard for killing the game when there are more people online playing than there had been in years. If they killed Fish by coming in and fixing their servers with a better ladder system then that is fine by me. Yeah, they can do a better job with the 1.16 graphics and sorting out some of the fringe errors giving people problems but I don't know what that has to do with Fish closing.
