Some people have been complaining about the lag with the recent patch. For me personally before the new UI update i was not getting lag even during 200/200 battles on ultra settings. However after the new patch even playing on low settings throughout any part of the game from clicking on new windows in the UI or dling new maps I had extreme lag. I was asking around in the TL channel and some guy told me to go to task manager and close the agent.exe *32 and after that i had normal processing power. For some reason though every time I open sc2 again i have to reclose this program.

+ Show Spoiler +

I did dl 100% but i still had insane amounts of lag.

P.S. I forgot who helped me in the TL channel but if you want to pm i will gladly add your name to the bottom/top for helping me.

I'm not exactly sure if this is were this belongs.

After the initial download, there is still more data to be download for a future patch. If you open the launcher it should say that its still downloading on the bottom. One way you can reduce the lag is to disable peer to peer transmission in the launcher settings. I think in total there should be a few GB more.

Ah i guess your right. There is no dl bar but the game is not quite up to date.

TLDR

If you click on info when you open sc2 and before you hit play and go to connect information it will show you how much more of the patch you need to dl.

Maybe you should close some of your Chrome windows to stop the lag

You probably pressed the 'select all army units' hotkey which they just added (I think).

Hey guys,

i fixed my lagg ezly by opening the "variables.txt" in my Starcraft 2 documents folder.
Just write the following into it and save (sc2 has to be closed ofc):

writeAgentRegion=0

I live in EU (germany), but i guess it should work on other servers aswell.
Hope i could help u guys

PS: If it does not work out, delete all of your changes.

Cheers sLi

Post replays and time they start moving and I can probably tell you (by looking at action list in sc2gears). Also do you have custom hotkeys, some of the hotkeys have been reset if there's conflicts; could be related.
