I've been able to play, but I've noticed extreme horrid lag from just about everyone in the game including myself (even though I'm getting good FPS and connection is stable). I was playing 4v4s however last night so I think perhaps maybe everyone just turn down their settings just a tad for playing these larger game types. More units and bigger map = more powerful computer is needed, just because someone can run on Ultra in 1v1 and 2v2, maybe 3v3 and 4v4 they can't. Of course I'm more apt to believe that Blizzard screwed something up again lol.

Ever since WoW came out it seems like Blizzard has forgot how to do networking or hire competent networking staff. Every single week without fail WoW comes down for 'some maintenance' as a network admin myself I can safely say a load-balanced network appropriate to the number of users connecting should not need weekly maintenance or even monthly maintenance, in fact the only thing I have ever to do with servers I run is a restart every now and then, which takes ~ 15 minutes per server. With remote server consoles you can easily restart all your servers simultaneously. But yet Blizzard still finds a way to take WoW servers offline every week, every Tuesday for extended periods of time.

Sadly, it appears that this trend is moving towards SC2 already in Beta. Now don't get me wrong extended down times in a Beta are to be expected. I guess. I say this because Blizzard knows EXACTLY how many users are connecting because they know how many keys they have given out as well as access logs etc. - that said and as a result should easily be able to determine how much network access is needed to support the users, massive random server lag shouldn't happen. But it did in WoW Beta and first few days of release, and we can almost be 100% assured it will in SC2. This also comes with the random 'service updates' which Blizzard releases in both games already quite frequently, on WoW these are server side completely and you don't even download a patch. However every time, every single time Blizzard releases a patch on WoW there's extended downtime for 'an forseen issue' - I really hope this trend is not continuing into SC2.

Then again, this being the unlucky number 13 patch, this seems to be the most convenient time to have a patch that is truly broken
