Where to download it? Can't find the place!


Try this: http://dist.blizzard.com/downloads/sc2-beta-installers/build1-96937bdf/StarCraft-II-Beta-Setup-enUS.exe


Does it matter your link is the US version (At least I figured) and I live in Europe?

Or does it do the same thing?

for those who want to see the new physics:
watch the tvz battle report on yoütube
it was on howling peak and skip to the end or so, where tons of tanks are killing hydras.
dats it

btw the nuke animation is the same
but now mechanical parts fly off the screen when a nuke hits hellions for example. so the dynamic and logic is not contradicting, as in previous patches the exploding parts flew away like they wanted to, not from the center of the nuke explosion.
basically it should be harder for the cpu to make all this in realtime, counting in which direction the debris should fly etc, but still it hasn't such an effect on the fps.

So, possibly this could mean a tournament server which would still be huge. That said, venues will still need internet to stream the games, so streams could still be affected by internet issues.


If blizzard releases the b.net server then we will have a lot of pirate b.net servers. This would possibly be worse then if they release LAN. With lan you need to have something like Hamachi to play over internet and it is often some connection issues. If there where pirate b.net servers you would just need to change a ip adress in the game and it would work like the real one.

EU and NA use the same client, but if you want to be safe just download it from here, lol.

I doubt it's significantly more work for the CPU, to be honest. Before, the rag-doll pieces inherited their velocity from the last frames of the death animation. Now they can also get impulse from an explosion or other impact.
The existence of a food chain is inescapable if we evolved unsupervised, and inexcusable otherwise.

The game timer has moved. This could be annoying.
Also I don't think the idle worker notification will be as obvious, atleast at first.

Loved it too. Everything is much more compact, easier to see in just a glance.

I like the new positioning of idle worker and game timer. However, the terrain looks "slightly" buggy xD. Dont really understand why Blizzard had to add "select all army " as f2, though. Hate all the help players are getting.
no.

Yeah, because selecting all units you have and attack-moving is such a GREAT thing to do, right?

You no longer have to add units to control groups yourself.

If you dont know how huge this change is, then i dont know what to say.

1control group deathball just got huge buff.
