There have been a few weird changes since maintenance was applied in the time frame surrounding the patch, with things that are not mentioned in the official patch notes ( http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/blog/20059667 )

Here's what I've been able to find so far:


Zerg
Baneling: New, louder sound effect upon morph finish

Terran
Liberator freedom zone visual change, more subtle.

Maps
Ruins of Endion lighting changed to a darker preset.


Feel free to post if you notice any more things that are weird or different, something not already stated in the patch notes!

I haven't been able to play properly for a couple of months because of work but I did play 1 ladder game yesterday after doing the Nova missions and some Protoss sound effects felt different to me but I thought it was just because I hadn't played for a while.

I noticed the freedom zone change. Also, the way molten appears before falling in d3 changed similarly visually. Also, the lighting changed a bit on Desolate sands. I'm sure if there is a connection.

The text of the multiplayer menu - Terran, Protoss, Zerg, 1v1, Archon, 2v2, 3v3, 4v4 etc. all looks strange now >.>

I don't like it. Looks bad! It was fine before... why change what is good...

That is a lot of bug fixes. I don't understand what this one means tho:

Zerg
Lurkers that are mid-attack will no longer automatically burrow after being lifted by a Phoenix’s Graviton Beam.

sounds like if you lifted a lurker during its attack animation but didn't kill it in the air then the lurker would automatically re-burrow itself after being dropped to the ground?

Regarding the queue status lock issue, apparently pressing Play through the normal Multiplayer screen instead of Play Again on the Score Screen can help ...

This also applies to lurker morphs, Ravagers I'm not sure - I don't think so.




Also I've played an automated tournament where I was 100% certain I queued up as Zerg, yet got placed as Random. This has happened in 1v1 with Terran too, but that might've been my mistake.

Quite a few people have noticed this. It's definitely a problem for all races. Not just on tournaments, but also on ladder.

Liberator circle should be red again, just like in the beta.

And yeah, some people have been spawning with a different race than selected.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

I think that's the one that has orange color effects over the game+UI.

The icy map doesn't have color problem

Reaper grenade thing is annoying and affecting many games

Color thing needs looking at too, it's having a big impact on ladder & competitive maps. I've seen no justification for it other than it being an asthetic choice but it clearly hurts visibility and playability http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/sc2-maps/505756-dark-maps-and-zvz?page=2

You forgot to mention the stealth nerf of the liberator being nerfed from 5.5 radius to 5.0 radius:

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/starcraft-2/506881-undisclosed-liberator-nerf-in-patch-320

Yeah, the liberator should of always been at 5.0 radius, but it's still a nerf regardles.

It's not that it shouldn't of happened because it should of. However, the balance team wants to nerf it further making it a total from 5.5 radius to 4.0 radius, which is almost a 50% radius decrease. Therefore, the balance team should reconsider the radius nerf and bring it down to 4.5 radius instead of 4.0 radius or simply not go through with the nerf and see how the liberator and Terran plays out with 5.0 radius instead of 5.5 radius.

I have been repeateadly having some bugs when quickly re-tagging for ladder after a game is over and it either says that my status is "locked" or it just get stuck on "game found" and i have to re-log into the game. I have been under the impression that it took me some ladder points off after some bugs and I have more games on my profile that I actually played so that's that.

It's not that it shouldn't of happened because it should of. However, the balance team wants to nerf it further making it a total from 5.5 radius to 4.0 radius, which is almost a 50% radius decrease. Therefore, the balance team should reconsider the radius nerf and bring it down to 4.5 radius instead of 4.0 radius or simply not go through with the nerf and see how the liberator and Terran plays out with 5.0 radius instead of 5.5 radius.


Or just do -1 range, add it back in with the upgrade like they were talking about before. Radius doesn't have to change

Yeah, the liberator should of always been at 5.0 radius, but it's still a nerf regardles.


I guess you could look at it that way lol

Yeah my problem with the liberator isnt the space it takes up, just that it can take that space in the air without getting hit.

Yeah, that's a good alternative. The radius can stay at 5.0 since it already got nerfed from 5.5 and just do the -1 range change as a bonus as a slight nerf for liberator's harassment.

Anyone else getting some slight performance issues with this patch? Sometimes when a building finishes or I scout there base for the first time I get a slight fps drop that makes my game stutter for a split second (I've tried unit preloader). I have a gtx 970 and an i5 4690k so I feel like I shouldn't be getting fps drops like that. I already tried reinstalling it but that didn't work. Anyone have any suggestions?

Well, the fix patch actually fucked BN heavily yesterday. Patch came at 2am, at the beginning of the tournament. Every time i pressed ready i got logged out(same goes for everyone in the tournament). So it was about 15 minutes and tournament was finished with random winners without actually anyone playing a single game.

GOOD JOB BLIZZARD.
