"Pending" is fixed. At last. Great news.
|
Another WCS Overlay improvement. I have faith in the Schutter.

WCS overlay improvement.
AT LAST !!! It was much needed...
|
Presence information displayed in the Friends List should now display the correct information.
I hope this fixes the 'plays vs AI' thing.

Cool changes!
I made some small edits to the OP to make it easier to read, I hope you are okay with this 
|
Arcade change is good, but there needs to be one more. Host needs to be able to kick player, or there needs to be a lobby mechanism to kick a player. I don't know why something so basic isn't available in arcade.
but kicking the invites is a good start.
|
I can't wait for all the Arcade maps that will hopefully be coming out with these WC3 assets, especially any WC3 or Dota1 remakes.
|
WAAARCRAFT ASSETS! Yes! ^.^

Wheres the balance changes? Wasn't there supposed to be SH and Raven changes in here?
|
Balance patch will be dispatched when season 1 of WCS ends, as stated by Psione.

•Typical use of the middle mouse button should no longer cause the cursor to snap to the center of the screen.
Thank God for that

I have a question.
Just the other week, I was able to download only 2GB of the total file size before being allowed to play under "playable" conditions. That is the yellow marker on the download progress screen.
Over time playing multi-player only, it's downloaded as I've played another 2GB or so maybe more. As I have limited internet available at the moment, this was perfect! I could download just a small portion of the game to play 1v1, and didn't have to download 12+ GB of the game. Awesome.
Now after this patch, I need to download another 12GB to be playable???!!!!! WHY? God dammit I was enjoying multiplayer now I have to wait a couple of weeks for my monthly usage to reset for me to be able to download it.
Can I get around this?

What exactly is assets?
Models? Units? etc?

I would suggest restarting the battle.net client/ computer and/or waiting a few days. I think you might be out of luck though. I'm having to deal with data caps in Canada too, so I understand the frustration.

I'm pretty pumped. Though I wonder why they decided to go through the effort of making new hero models...
Edit: Might be assets they were building for Heroes of the Storm, and decided to put in this patch.

Uninstall SC2 and install it again, You should be able to play with only small part downloaded. But I suggest you finish the update ASAP, since this problem will reoccur.
On topic: Very happy about the changes, I also like that they are still fixing WoL as well .

It's unbelievable how long it took them to fix the pending issue. But thank god it is fixed now.
