Probably like Big Gamer Hunter... it'd be nice to see it again.

I don't get why you'd remove the bottom rung and add an additional rung up top. That makes no logical sense to me. Someone explain, please.

Great, well I guess the whole void ray thing is good... though it's not like terrans cannons don't rip through VRs. I am excited about the fact that maybe now Void Rays (were 7 range) can be attacked by toss cannons (were and are 7 range)... So many times I'd have void rays destroying my cannons while they aren't doing anything but have power.

Patch 13 = very weird.

"No one uses Ultras, we're going to make them better."

"We want ultralisk to do more tanking (break force fields, buff from Frenzy) so we cut its HP by 25%, and it moves at the same speed. Less damage too, except against armor (which can outrun them) and buildings, which they will never reach."

"Ultras get bonus damage against armor, but still move slow and clunky so you can't get them in rage to tank."

"Terrans, you're doing fine but we want to make it easier for you to faceroll and win with mass MMM."

"Protoss, fuck you."

(gross oversimplification and generalization, but that's my initial reaction not having played Patch 13 yet)

Really? People are acting like they're personally wronged by SC2 patches like they are with WoW patches?

I should edit the notes to say "Blizzard will also kick your dog."

No, if that was the case I'd threaten to delete my characters and cancel my account.

I have one question. Why do all these cool changes that we would like to take time and test out... but only give us 10 days?

EDIT: My friends list is gone, this makes me sad.

I can't even connect.

reply to Sefirot
I can't even get a placement match to start, keep getting lagged out and when the map finally loads it's frozen.

we tried doing 4v4... everyones lagging and people just keep dropping, including us.

UDP might be to blame. They switched over from TCP to UDP to improve performance but it obviously hasn't been widely tested.

reply to TigerLord
The morons at Blizzard just broke the game with the patch.

Yeah, its pretty bad

Haven't had a chance to play yet, suppose I could so 1v1 but I prefer 2v2 and waiting on some friends stuff to go through.... still need to get Drew on there!

reply to TigerLord
I've been able to play maybe 3 or 4 games all day and have had had about 10 end with everyone getting dropped. Usually the ones I'm winning too.

reply to TigerLord
That last patch added a ton of issues for me mostly with random disconnects and slow speeds which I never had before the patch.

Im cancelling my account, refund my money!

Class action, here we come!
