Hey guys. I have a question. When i played a lot in Wol my average APM was around 130 when i was at my peak. I haven't had much time to play lately but i played a hots game yesterday and my average APM at the end of the game was measured at a whopping 310. and my EPM was at about 200.

I really don't believe i was playing that fast, and my hands are pretty sensitive to fast play as they have no endurance what so ever. Really burns my tendons when i play fast for along time.

So my question i guess are the APM and EPM measures bugged?

Seems to be at least mildly broken. One game it said I had 30 APM (which is wrong because mine usually averages around 130 on SC2 gears), and the next I had 250. There's also many games where I have 0 APM. And one game as Zerg I had 450. The APM thing at the score screen is not even remotely reliable from what I have seen.

Hey guys. I haven't logged in in HotS for a few days, and when I logged in a few minutes ago it asked me if I wanted to upgrade HotS or continue with the starter version. Clicking "Upgrade" opened a Battle.net webpage with a 404 error, so I just clicked "Continue with starter edition". And in the main menu there's this "Upgrade now" button below the usual buttons, you can see it here. Anyone know what's this all about?

EDIT: I can't play a custom game without doing the aforementioned "upgrade". I click on "Upgrade now", it goes to a battle.net webpage and asks me to login, but when I do so it gives me a 503 error. What the hell is going on?

Seems like HotS is behaving like a standard edition for me, hence the "upgrade now" button... I can only play as Terran, the only customs that work are vs AI, etc.

Did seriously no one else got this "Upgrade Now!" button in their main menu as well?

How do I punish a nexus first as Terran now???

I'm not great, Diamond T, but in WoL I would proxy rax a thor, make 2 rax with combat shielded marines, and pull scvs to repair the thor and usually (like 90% of the time) got the win... but now with the MSC it seems like toss has no problem holding this...I just think it's kind of silly that toss can virtually early expand most games vs me with no consequences.
-_-

Ideas?
