Sorry to be a little bit whiny about this, but Blizzard really fucked up. Everytime anything happens ingame, SC2 suddenly becomes a freaking PICTURE. I can't do anything and lost 3 games already, because I can't micro ANYTHING. Goddamn ... finally I have some free time and than this shit has to happen? Seriously Blizzard? T_T

After I patched my graphics settings were reset, so check those.
Logic fails because we are lazy.

I checked those and configured them already, my computer doesn't like low shaders (with them it crashes all the time, still don't know why) so that's usually the first thing I look for.

The thing is, I get about 40-60 fps while playing, which is normal for my setup (even before the patch), but everytime something spawns, or something happens it just freezes for literally 3-5 seconds (0 fps), which is... quite unplayable ...

I'm now trying the solution someone made a few posts before... but still, it's just stupid ..

I experience the exact same thing. It's indeed quite annoying. Could you please post whether the "solution" helped?

Heh yeah my FPS dropped to 3!! during a mid game TvP battle with storm/colossi, needless to say I didn't dodge many storms :/

I'm sure it was never that bad before or I would have been demoted long ago.

How do you actually see your fps in game? I.e which key do you press?

I have noticed that the game has become much more choppy in big battles so I had to change everything from medium before patch, to low after patch in order to avoid computer lag.

I played one custom with terran, and it seemed to work. But it's a pain in the ass to do, because you have to basically do EVERY action there is in the game to load the shaders, took me like 20 minutes to do this in Unit Test Map ...

And as an addendum, i can't find a freaking unit test map in either arcade or custom maps to do that shader thing. Great.

ctrl + alt + f
to show FPS

Check "the sandbox"
for a unit tester map that still works.

If you play from a mechanical hard drive make sure to run a defrag. Has helped me before with fps issues after patching.

I run everything on minimal graphics, and have no trouble in-game. However, I have TERRIBLE lag when I first log in. I literally cannot do anything at my computer for a minute or two after logging in. After that everything runs smoothly. This never happened before 1.5, kind of weird O.o

Performance increase for me, but I think the devs didn't thought about the casuals and should have released a short manual with the patch x3.

My FPS is much much better than before, so I'm not that upset.

Before the patch I never had problems and everything ran fine, but now I have huge fps drops especially in my first game of the day. Just lost cause my screen froze for 2 seconds after my first sentry got out.

Fix your shit Blizzard, this patch was garbage.
