I finally got to log in and play after many authentication module errors.

I can now see why people are complaining about the lag. I played my first 2v2 placement match, one guy was dropped 20 seconds into the game, and shortly after I also got dropped. The lag was horrendous and made the game unplayable.

I also played a 3v3, the game lagged and one of my partners dropped. We stood no chance 3v2 and it's all because of the lag.

I'm going to stop complaining about it now but I hope Blizzard works to fix this problem ^^

Well, they did it. They ruined protoss. This patch sucks.

Went 4-0 my first placement matches all vs toss.
lost my last one to terran, and then 3 matches lost after that all to the same shit.

exactly what i predicted would happen this patch.

unstoppable marine pushes vs toss.

seriously blizzard what the fuck? WHY did you buff the upgrades on marines and marauders?
I was plat league before this patch, and now i am being beaten into oblivion by these terran marine ball timing attacks that protoss can do nothing to stop. It put me in plat on 4-1 (fuck that) and I will probably stay there because I play protoss... and it takes nothing to beat me but picking terran and making about 20 marines, getting both upgrades super fast, and just pushing in and winning.

Same here, lost 2 matches to marine and marauders timing push after the upgrade, no way to stop them now, my immortals just focused down by STIMMED marauders. think better change to Terran for now

It is a bug that everyone has. Blizzard said that patch 13 wouldn't have menu sound like a week ago.

Thanks, thats what I thought but I wasn't sure.

A serious issue: whenever I try to start up SC2 the loader just freezes and crashes. I've reinstalled the game and patched it again, but the same issue still persists. What can I do?

Did they change zerg worker rally point? I don't mean the change to G. I could have swore you couldn't right click on the minerals to set it so I would always press R to set the worker rally. I just had an argument with my buddy because he said it was always like that but I'm pretty sure it would just rally your combat units when you used to right click it before.

You've always been able to right-click to set the worker rally...

Are you able to install patch 13? If you install it, try launching the game with SC2Switcher.exe which is in the Support folder.

For zerg it sets two rally points from the hatchery, for combat the rally line looks white, and for workers the rally line looks gold. If you right click on a mineral patch it will automatically set the worker rally point, and if you right click anywhere that's not a mineral patch it will automatically set the combat unit rally point.

As much as I like some of the patch changes, this patch is pretty damn buggy. Might be my least favorite patch for that reason alone.

I'm fine losing to some strong build because it motivates me to figure out how to beat it. Losing because I couldn't properly micro my units is just annoying as hell.

The lag is ridiculous. I played one game against a computer to test it out. I almost had to drop myself.
