Clicking neutral and enemy units is an option in the gameplay options. While it's maybe dumb that it was disabled by default, it's a anon-issue and not a bug. I don't know what you mean by probe sounds looped. One bug is not "so many bugs". This patch added a ton of excellent improvements. These improvements to Starcraft 2 make it the game it should have been 2.5 years ago. It's unfortunate it happened so late, but it's a very good thing that it happened eventually at least.

So is there any way I can play the game without going through the whole download? 2 options: 1. Close agent.exe every time you start SC2. That is the program that downloads stuff 2. Make a change in your variables.txt file. The file is located in your user's documents folder, under "Starcraft II" (for windows), or "~/Library/Application Support/Blizzard/StarCraft II" for OS X. The change you need to make is to add the line writeAgentRegion=0 Wow there's STILL people making posts about their lag problems; read some posts please guys. A moderator really needed to make a big red notice message for this thread a long time ago talking about the lag (why it's there, and a link to more information). Get on it, mods; sheesh. | ||

(or something like that, I don't know how is english) you can saw that still downloading. Maybe is it that is causing lag for some folks. ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/ZzicvYy.jpg) Yep me too. Got to get called bad names lagging before I figured it out.... thx blizz | ||

Even in the beginning of the game, I can't even re-rally a worker to another mineral patch without waiting for a second. | ||

Uh no duh lol if I weren't still having such a problem with the changes I wouldn't be posting. Oh well, I guess I'll wait a few more days before playing again. | ||

The unranked matches are pretty intense when you go up against a couple of Masters. This could be a result of not that many players playing that mode at the time, but when you're low-ranked, the early shenanigans can throw you off. Blizzard should also put that command line thing, to fix background download, on the main opening client screen, because the lag is pretty horrible. And put on that opening screen when the problem has been fixed. Not everyone is going to have the expansion right away. Besides that, the HotS ingame features are pretty cool. (Once you go into the Options and make sure you can see enemy unit upgrades, and de-simplify the **card on the HUD--can't remember what it's called, but the bottom right panel, ingame). I don't know if you can disband one 'clan' and create another. (shows the tag before your name, like, [Markarr] yourname, and so-forth.) The optimal mineral/gas saturation guide (19/24 above your CC/N/Hatch) takes a bit to get used to, so try some UR games to start. *** (edt) THE VOICES! You can change the freaking voice language! I watched an old TLO FP game on youtube when he played as terran and had GERMAN voice-overs. . .that was the coolest thing I've ever heard! Now We Can Do That! the best thing about the new patch. Russian, Korean, Chinese, it's all there now. I just hope the future server update doesn't lag too much: watching MaximusBlack rank to diamond on the KR server (on youtube) was fucking intense as shit... (end edt) *** Unranked is great when you want to off-race without people screaming and swearing at you! ha! And the new loading screen is refreshing. . .ZRRRRRG | ||

I don't understand why people try to defend Blizzard on this. The executable feels extremely heavy, I barely can alt-tab without it freezing, when I click on menus in game it freezes. I constantly keep getting random freezes or crashes. I have a i7 with a top tier gpu (at least from 6 months ago)... It's nice that they added features and stuff but the whole program seems way too heavy and full of crashes. It was poorly designed in the first place, no hot-fix or "patch" will help those issues, let's just hope they just rewrite the whole thing for LotV but I doubt they will (because it would be way too time consuming) | ||

The whole mmr-like system to battling ai is just wrong. No idea if you can lower your rating in this by just throwing games, but that seems like a waste of time when trying to solo practice. Nothing is stopping you from creating a custom game and adding in an AI opponent and setting them to "very easy". The AI ladder is mainly there to make sure players who don't want to play against other people can still have a pseudo random ladder experience, which might get them into the actual ladder one day. | ||

Past that, it's 2G, which is crazy--they should just put all the install info onto discs, when you buy the game. 1:1 is obviously waaaay faster than downloading. @HoboJoe.. Maybe I want to practice the ZvP mutalisk build offline? 2nd edit:good point with getting ppl into this game, but some have poor internet where they pay per MB. and like above, it would be easier to leave in the old system. That doesn't seem like a 'redundant mode' for straight-up practice that they should have removed. | ||

Unranked Play allows players to engage in matchmaking and find games vs. other players without the pressures of the ranking system. So is this a different matchmaking, or ranked players might play against unranked players? That would be dumb. Select All Larvae: Selecting a single larva will select all larvas attached to the same Hatchery. Wtf? The only times I select one larva is because I wan't to make 1 unit.. I hope this is optional. | ||
