They said 1.5.0 would have a stream tech (jsut like D3 and wow past 4.0), they might be testing it and are calling it beta because they are betaing the stream? Idk. I am not saying it's true, but it makes sense.


Chris Sigaty said so at Ipl4. patch 1.5 is going to have a beta test on its own.

Man i really hope that us poor souls that can't go to MLG Anaheim gets a chance to get into the HOTS beta at the same time as the people that go do.

Man i want to it :3
Furthermore, I think the Collosi should be removed! (Zorgaz -Terran/AbrA-Random/Zorg-Dota2) Guineapigs <3

LOL. does anyone actually believe this guy? clearly he hasn't seen a download client screen for starcraft in his life.

blizzard NEVER titles their updates.

it is ALWAYS on the dark blue updater window.

they don't add the shit graphics you did.

THERE ARE NO SETUP/PLAYABLE/OPTIMAL STAGES FOR STARCRAFT.

you even used the wrong font.

the play button is always goldish orange.

the download remaining line was clearly taken from diablo.

the patch notes are always displayed on the center screen.

there's no version number in the bottom left hand corner.



tldr: stop creating fake screenshots. it's fucking obnoxious. we don't need people like you littering an informational thread with fucking shit photoshops.

Dude, the setup/playable/optimal is the new "streaming" thing they're implementing, where you can play before you fully download the content. There's a good chance it is ral.

ok bro. go ahead and believe it if that's all you need.

but personally i take a bit more convincing than a shitty photoshop that puts in "beta" behind a version number that NEVER had "beta" behind it during the WOL beta.

I am trying to find a link or some topic that list units to appear in HotS. As I remember, a lot of the units presented at Blizzcon were to be removed and replaced by new units. Is there a thread where all latest updated info about the new units can be found?

Joke's on you. It's real. It's part of the new 1.5 arcade beta streaming install. Stop making yourself look like an incessant fool and do your research before you embarrass yourself again.

And do you have any proof? No disrespect meant if you do, but a 2 post account isnt usually where you expect to find new material..

When they named the changes for toss and zerg they said they are still working on terran. Only thing for sure for terran is the removal of the shredder.

I am both excited and terrified of the coming change.

And I really, really want my hands on a beta key.

The pros will stick to hots untill the beta is stable enough to competitive play I guess. or public enought to let them all play.

depending on the release date of hots, any pro circuits using wol will likely finish out the season playing that and then switch to hots asap.

Rushing too fast.

Was hoping for a major revamp of Protoss (in particular warp gates). So far HOTS is just a few extra units.

Poor form by Blizzard.


I'd prefer a long beta with them allowing a large player-base to help balance the game, rather then just internal testing.
