You still have to manually edit the CustomKeys.txt file and activate the option. There is no possibility to modify hotkeys within the game like in SC2. | ||

I've made my share of SC2 maps, where sure, the EULA isn't dissimilar in any significant way, but if I woke up one day to find Battle.Net took it upon itself to delete all of my files I would be fuming. Or depressed, honestly. There really isn't much separating the Reforged update from malware at that point. At least an EULA you have to click that you agree, even though they’re insanely long and worded in legalise that the lay person generally won’t have the patience or expertise to understand. People have won in court cases on such agreements being unreasonable to wade through, although I would imagine that wouldn’t be the case every time. Presumably original owners of WC3 agreed to a rather different EULA, and haven’t even been given the ‘want to upgrade? Accept these terms’ option. It’s ridiculous and I really feel for those users affected. As I said I was aware that this was a thing and even then I didn’t even notice that the update was going through. It’s really not a million miles away from those bits of invasive DRM software that caused users genera system problems. I think it’s this more than almost any other issue that’s probably pushing me from the ‘I might purchase this when it’s good’ to ‘I’m not giving this company my money’ | ||

https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/warcraft3/t/warcraft-iii-version-1321-patch-notes/19379 The patch is 2.2 Go There are real geniuses working at Blizzard nowadays. To differentiate Classic users from people who bought Reforged, they... removed colors in the background of the main menu for Classic users: • Developer’s note: We’ve implemented a temporary solution to better inform whether you are playing in Reforged or Classic mode, by applying a sepia tone to the background images for Classic. And yes, it looks as bad as it sounds: + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](https://i.imgur.com/HWTiWvW.jpg) I don't know what to say, really. Even for "details" like this, they manage to **** up and implement a new downgrade lol. Jesus... | ||

They changed something with the sounds, something is off. The ambiance noises seemed loud at the start of the game. Keyboard works again in replays. They changed the replay path to the BattleNet folder for some reason, seems like you have to transfer your replays there so that they appear in game. | ||

They should also remove all music and only play the WoW corpsewalk music so you really realize the old game has been killed, and get your 30 euros ready At least when you're playing classic mode on the StarCraft remaster you're not constantly being kicked in the teeth with it. Holy shit. | ||

Silent movie Warcraft 3 with a rocking piano soundtrack and occasional cuts to a black screen with the dialogue written on it. | ||
