So wtf is this 6GB I am downloading after I have installed 2.04?

Am I downloading HOTS already? Cause I cannot for the love of me figure out why I need to download this much for a patch.

The new battle.net design looks great! Lots of cool new stuff and I even had fun in general chat last night. Lots of lag in game but I'm sure that will get fixed. This is a step in the right direction for sure and I feel like my take on WOL would be much better minded if it was done earlier but I guess it takes time for blizzard to learn.

You can turn it off, it will only show if you hover your mouse over the hatchery/nexus/CC and the extractors/refinery/assimilator

HotS and WoL are one and the same client. If u have installed WoL, it downloads HotS automatically already if u leave the game launcher open.
Even only WoL users will have HotS content on their disk but cannot use it obviously

Anyone more than me suddenly having HUGE problems with spikes since downloading this patch?
The game is close to unplayable for me now on all graphical settings as soon as I hit the Quick-match button.
Having like 10 straight losses in Master now, need 10 APMs to perfom 1.

yeah it's annoying. part of this is because they added new hotkeys with defaults that overrode yours: like Select Army Units which they set to F2 (which was previously probably the Recall Camera Location 1 or 2 )
but there are some other hotkey oddities..for example they have very old abilities that have long been out of the game, like Khaydarin Amulet for the high templar is an ability with a hotkey ..ultra speed upgrade, burrowed move upgrade for infestors. these upgrades haven't returned in any fashion I don't think (i dont think theyre back for campaign), i think they just accidentally put them back in

The Lag is a known problem:

Basically it has do with people not downloading the whole patch...

I agree, but it has to do with the tweaking they've done to the engine. I used to run WoL with shaders on low and models and effects on high. :/ well, we have to adjust to the new look.
