Have the same problem.

TEMPORARY SOLUTION UNTIL FIX :

1- Disable your internet adapter from your network settings on windows.
2- Start SC2
3- Click "OK" when it says "You don't have internet connection"
4- Wait a little bit
5- Enable your internet adapter
6- Wait a little bit
7- Login
8- Make sure you can see your leagues and places on Multiplayer tab.

It would be easier to just block outgoing HTTP traffic for sc2.exe via the built-in firewall. No need to disconnect anything.

And disrupts downloads, streaming video/audio, etc., and has to be done every time again. Just saying.

hi folks,

for some reason whenever i launch sc2 it keeps freezing during the loading screen. i dont mean the ever so lovely face of jim raynor staring at you with his handsome eyes but the screen that comes afterwards, the planet and space, soon after which your account name and password login should follow. now i havent made any changes to settings whatsoever or made any other amendments to my laptop or windows....

as a matter of fact i played a couple of games tonight quite perfectly but then took a short break and tried to get back on 20 mins later. now however all i get is this blasted frozen loading screen and whenever i ctrl-alt-del it shows up in the task-manager as having crashed. is this a well known problem? does anybody have a solution to that?

all help is appreciated!!


Same here.

In chronological order, I:

- restarted my laptop
- repaired SC2 with the Repair tool
- uninstalled SC2
- installed SC2 again
- deleted the "Variables" config file
- restored my system to two days ago

Nothing helped.

Exact same problem - game freezes right after Jim Raynor's face turns into a planet and you're supposed to put in your log-in details.

Happened after I switched my video settings around.

Never had this issue before.

Very frustrated.

Was thinking this was a bnet problem seeing as it's down but was still freaking out thinking I might have to reinstall after messing around with the games MPQs.

My game did same at the end of map loading screen it freezes about 15 seconds and then game starts. everybody see me lagging. after that no lagging.

I tried reinstalling game(didn't work), I swithed my wlan card(didn't work), I tried different graphic card drivers(didn't work).

My pc specs


Processor AMD Phenom(tm) II X6 1090T Processor (6 CPUs), ~4,2GHz
Memory 16384MB DDR3 1600MHz latency 9-7-9-18
Hard Drive 64GB SSD 3 TB Total
Video Card NVIDIA GeForce GTX 570 Asus direct cu II
Soundcard (High Definition Audio)
Windows 7 64bit ultimate

I got this problem FIXED.

I bought yesterday radeon Hd 7850 and game stopped lagging.

THE PROBLEM was nvidia graphic card.

many other problems too got fixed, like after 20 minutes gaming bc2 full graphics graphic card shut's down(if nvidia drivers are 302 or lower,

Skyrim fps lags if used nvidia drivers 306,23 or higher(302 or lower works exellent),

and then last prolem planetside 2 when game starts random fps lag but if nvidia drivers are reinstalled it works 40 fps with full graphics, same problem with Medieval chivalry. Note that changing graphics lower will not fix this problem. I discovered that only way to fix this problem is reinstall drivers after every restart of computer.

so nvidia got some serious problems with software. and ati/amd graphic card fixes them. if you dont want to buy new graphic card the remember those driver fixes
