Yeah, so the replay catchup speed is probably lower than many hoped.... but on the other hand we get new overlays and observers UIs and zoom-out levels and protoss upgrade icons and tons of bug fixes... we need to stop being so negative. If this is below your expectations, it's your expectations that need adjusting.

@kyo also its not a subscriber, cash shop based game, there cant be a major content every month. The content and patches are basically free

Uh, well my comment in regards to content is more for THEM than us. From a business perspective you have to realize they need to worry about player retention and a substantial carry over of sales from one expansion to the next. How much stuff has been released since HotS has been out? Again, I'm not angry, frustrated or outraged at blizzard for this patch. Any patch is good; however, nothing in here really addresses the problem with where the game is 'at' in terms of eSports or its longevity yet people are rejoicing or saying not to be 'negative'. It's sort of confusing to me. It seems clear there are blatant marketing issues, as well as administrative issues(such as wcs) and this does nothing to remedy them.

"The Oracle’s Activate and Deactivate Pulsar Beam abilities can now be properly set to share the same hotkey using the Allow Toggle Conflicts option in the Hotkey menu."

That is a big one. Nice

"Two new zoom levels have been added to the observer camera which let observers zoom out much further than what was allowed prior to Patch 2.0.10:"

Hooray!

Where is this live right now and does anyone have any idea when the changes will update on servers that aren't updated yet?

Yeah, I was hopeful when I saw this also but from reading the information on color blind mode it doesn't seem relevant at all. We can only hope they patch this in at some point. I really have no idea why they purposely made it so we cannot use it when it has no adverse affect on the game at all... It seems like they just want to get rid of any other party with a good idea and make it their own. (features in gameheart for example)
I am really hopeful, even after 2 years, that they allow for stronger team colors at some point though...

to the above:
Hi, i play the game a large fraction more than I observe it. The features they added are already in gameheart, or could have been customized on your own, they just allow you to use them as a default UI now since they created 2 for you. How are my expectations too high or negative in that regard? Like literally, half of this patch means absolutely nothing to the LARGE majority of players or viewers, especially those who spectate GSL/OSL.

They are features that independent people would find use for. I imagine day9 will like a lot of them for example.

I am curious though, what features do you want to see that arent already in?

I think it means Hellbats now have Yamato cannon. Can an expert confirm this?

New Protoss weapons icon art... for some reason I'm super excited for that.

Hmmm, I don't see the new Hellbat transformation upgrade icon in these patch notes even though it technically has already been data-mined out.
