**** Original Starcraft 2 Thread ****

From what I've read it just fixes one crash issue:

Technically Patch 16, yeah. We decided it didn't need notes being that it just fixed one crash, and beta is coming down today anyway.

On that note, by the way, it looks like the servers should be up until sometime late tonight or possibly early tomorrow morning (PDT). Still no exact time decided on yet.

ingame this morning at 2am it said it would go down at 11.00pm pdt on the 7th , so it's gone now and i am not sure what to play online next till july lol
 
I think the patch did more that that. It reduced siege damage from 60 to 50 I think and also did a couple of other things. Not that it matters anyway

So is the full game only a month away? Doubt they will be able to fix (rebuild) BNet 2 in a month. Couldnt they have stuck with something similar to battlenet 1 that was used with SC1

Great game though, no doubt someone will have a play around with the editor and AI and make something fun
 
That was patch 15.

Because the beta ended. :p

Remember the beta will be coming back in a few weeks so that bug fix will still be effective then. It wasn't completely pointless to fix a crash when the beta was ending on the same day.

Thanks, but I would like to be able to run it on High ideally even with this card because my resolution should be relatively small.

Depends what processor you have. I have a 5770 running on a 22" (1650 x 1080) [email protected] and 4gb ram.

I run on a mix of high and medium with reflections off. The game defaulted all options to high/ultra but on big (4 player) maps this started out at 40fps and dropped to 20-30 in big battles.

high/medium got this down to 60fps and then 30-40 during big battles. 8 player also works good in these settings but obviously 8 players with max supply wasnt exactly 60fps!
 
I was running it at 1900x1200 on mostly high settings with an 8800gt (waiting for my 280 gtx to be RMA'ed) and it ran fine with only a bit of noticeable slow down in 3v3 and 4v4.

Would be interesting to know your actual FPS. I had fraps on and I could easily tell the difference on twilight fortress between 40fps and 60fps. Just pressing the cursor to move around the map jolted it more at 40fps

Again, what processor do you have?
 
Thanks for your help Guest. My CPU is Q6600@3ghz and 4GB ram. I hope at 1280x1024 I can get some degree of niceness.

I do have a 24" but I will avoid using it as to keep the graphics looking pretty and fluid.
