Not impressed at all.. not worth the big download that's for sure.I keep going back to regular sc2. Maybe its just the lack of players that haven't d/l it yet. ... Why on earth would you custom 1v1 in a beta? Nobody is doing that; they're either playing on the ladder for 1v1 or messing with the Arcade (which is what the beta is for in the first place). | ||

Anyone stuck on a Mac like me who can confirm they are getting better FPS now? I'm a Mac user and definitely getting better FPS. Patch 1.4.3, I would lag a bit on Daybreak; not getting any of that junk in the 1.5 beta, and the textures are far better on low settings to boot! | ||

2. It takes 1-3 minutes to find even a 1v1 ladder match (as opposed to just seconds in regular SC2), but I assume that's just because there are far fewer people playing this version of the game. 3. I'm getting paired up with people of all levels, without any consistency (even after many, many games). My last few opponent's leagues were- according to the score screens: platinum, GM (wtf?), silver, platinum again, silver again, etc. I win most of them (even the won against the apparent GM player lol), so I assume it's just taking the system longer than usual to find me a place (they stupidly placed me in silver even though I kept winning), but I have no idea why every two or three games I play really really shitty players. The silver players actually player as if they're silver. 4. Other than these technical problems, I really like the layout and format. It looks a lot more colorful, organized, and all-around nicer. Still don't think I'll be using the Arcade/ Custom Game stuff, but it's surely appealing for those who do use it. | ||

But I think this beta isn't really about testing the ladder system, but more the custom game changes they made. | ||

Do I need to do some special thing other than download the game? They announced that the Rate the Game HOTS Contest is over and it's possible they've taken it down to either tally the numbers or possibly end the 1.5 beta. It's down in US as well at the moment. | ||

Overall, it seems like they're just doing tiny little tweaks, which might mean they're close to shipping it out, which is good, because once they've got this up a running, hopefully they can divert more attention to getting the HotS beta out :D | ||
