During replays when you switch to a players perspective the mini-map units are now green. Drives me crazy. I'm used to glancing at the mini-map to check his color then glancing up at the display to see his stats.

There was no reason to change this so I'm thinking it must be a bug.

Was having massive fps problems (sometimes dropping to 4 fps in the middle of a game and staying there). Saw it mentioned that certain sounds may be responsible (huh?). So I ctrl-s to turn off sounds and that actually fixed my problem. No more fps drops. Weird.

I was doing fine in terms of performance the past few days but today there was MASSIVE performance drop rendering the game unplayable during longer games. It's ridiculous because prior to the patch I was able to run the game fine but now I get massive fps drops in max low settings.

It must have been something to do with the server because I had horrible performance today as well! So much so that I was unable to move the screen to micro my units properly after the 10 minute mark. Hopefully these fps drop fixes that I'm trying will help. Keeping my fingers crossed!

HOW IS THE FUCKING 1-6 SEC LAG SPIKE NOT LISTED AS FIRST IN OP
are people not noticing it?....

I noticed ALMOST everyone has a lagspike (checked matchhistories of many players) but the thing is some have 6 sec, others just 1 sec..

1. Please don't yell at me. I can read lower-case letters just as well as upper-case, they just don't annoy me as much.
2. The order of bugs in the OP is not according to their priority, it's just the order I added them.
3. As far as I know, this is not a new bug with 1.5. I always check the clock when my first Probe completes, and it's almost never before 20 seconds, when it should be at 17.

dude.... you can watch at the ingame timer as soon as the game starts, the ingame timer doesn't start at 0:00 as pre patch but ALREADY at 0:01, 0:06 etc you don't even notice the lag... you probably just get out later out of the loading screen. pre patch my ladderopponents+me always started first worker 0:01, never later than 0:02. after 1.5 my first worker ALWAYS starts 0:04 no matter how fast I am, my ingame timer is already at 0:03 when I see my nexus.... check it first of all before trying to sound smart please. -_-

I checked out several matchhistories of pro players aswell and I noticed that elfi for example builds his first probe always after 0:04 since the new patch....

I'm not trying to sound smart, and if I do sound smart, I apologize for any offense I may have caused. This is just the way I communicate. You could try reading my posts aloud with a horrible lisp and say "hurr" after every comma - I'd probably sound pretty dumb, then.

Games starting late for one or both players has been a problem prior to 1.5. I know because it's been discussed before on TL, and also because I have personally experienced it. If someone wants to go through a game history and check the worker build times for the last ten games before 1.5 hit and the first ten games after the patch, then that would be useful information, but barring actual information of that nature, I'm just going to assume this is an ongoing problem that is getting noticed because people are hypersensitive to bugs at the moment.

I checked my pre patch match history and I noticed that now I start mining/builidng probe few seconds later than before. Earlier I was starting probe production around 00:01-00:02 but now it's at least 3-4 seconds later. I wouldn't mind it if it would affect both sides but unfortunately I'm the only one who's delayed in game. I played some customs with my friends and it turns out the game starts for them while i'm still in the loading screen (I see game loaded for both players but it doesn't start for few seconds). They said that the countdown starts for few seconds untill I finally join the game. I tried deleting cache and changing graphics settings but it didn't help. I didn't have that problem before patch. Now I'm lagging behind in literally every game I'm playing or observing.

I'm wondering if this bug might be the same as the lag bug caused by the client loading assets on demand instead of preloading everything. When the game starts, I assume there's a big chunk of unit/building assets loaded, maybe it actually starts the game and then lags out for different amounts for each player based on how long it takes their assets to load? It's just an idea, but you should try running a unit preloader (like this one: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=359043) before playing and see if that improves the situation?

I suspect it actually won't, since you're saying that you get this lag every game, and if it's the cache not containing the assets it needs, I would expect the lag only to happen for the first game you play (or the first against each race, since you won't have the SCV models loaded if you played a PvZ first). Still, it's worth a shot.

I am 97.642% certain that this is intentional behavior. I've gotten used to it pretty quickly. I'm going back and forth on whether I think it's a good idea (I think it might make it clearer to novice spectators what is going on when a player's vision is shown), but I really don't think this is a bug.

Is anyone dealing with my problem. I'm a terran player and when i vs. banes and split my army it lags and then when the lag is done so are my marines. My cpu is up to date graphics and processor wise. i even turned down my settings from ultra to high, 2 notches down, and it still is giving me lag ONLY WITH BANES. Please help it's driving me nuts.

Happy Birthday, Umlaut =)

Also, for #34, blizzard now says:
"Fog of War is not rendering properly on GeForce 6800, 7300 and 7600 cards."

So probably there are even more NVidia cards that have this problem.

Yesterday I was playing a team game where I killed a pylon in the enemy base. There were 2 pylons powering his gateways and robotics facillity. When I killed the first pylon, the gateway became unpowered (when it was obviously powered by another pylon. When I killed the second pylon, all other structures became unpowered, except the gateway that was already unpowered, which became powered again. But there were no pylons at all in sight.

To make no mistake, I checked that all the buildings in the vicinity were of the same player. The powered/unpowered state of protoss building is obviously toggleable, not actually checking if theres a pylon there or not.

Please post the replay!

I will not be able to update the OP reliably for the next 3-4 days. My wife has just called and I've got to go to the hospital and help her produce our second child. Wish me luck, and keep the bug reports and workaround coming, I'll catch up when I can

.

Edit: Holy crap, I hit 2000 posts, got the DT icon, and had my son, all on my birthday. What a day!

Another one to add to the list (returned from the beginning of the game): our 3v3 team already played 15 matches, but are still not getting placed. It says we still have to play "one more match" ...

I had a problem where pan right with the mouse stopped working all of the sudden in the middle of a game. Yes, I have a second monitor to the right, but I was focused on the game and "confine mouse cursor" was set to automatic in windowed full screen mode. This "automatic" setting seems to be new (I don't remember it before), but according to the description, the problem I had should not happen. (I have switched it to "on" just in case the bug is only present with the automatic mode)

Note: I had this exact same problem happen when I was using the 1.5 beta a few weeks ago.

That's not new. That's been happening since release. You have to alt-tab or windows key out of the game and back in to fix it.

Really? Like since release two years ago? Wow, this is the first time it's ever happened to me.
