I installed the patch, and it said it was succesful. It even updated the game version. However, when I try to log in it says my version of the game is unrecognized by battlenent. Is anyone else getting this error?
I think everyone is getting this error.
lets hope something is done.. Terran nerfs, (id LOVE a tank smart-firing removal, thats the biggest issue in the game now) and maybe make zealot buildtime back to normal?
No patch notes? Is there a surprise hidden in it?
I did see Adjutant Tutorial in the game patch. Perhaps we are getting a tutorial on how to play terran.
Oh hai! Welcome to the beta, Arkalis. I hope you enjoy your stay.
Yes, I definitely hope so.Quote:

Is battle.net working for you guys after the update? It says im trying to login using a client version not recognized by battle.net
Well, that's three poor unlucky individuals who can't get on while the rest of us are gaming to our hearts content :D
Yea, I just read on another forum. A lot of people are having the same problem
look at the brightsite...we're still playing the beta :DQuote:

Kicked out of b.net again.
Thing's I noticed:
Either I screwed something up or they removed the research req for burrow!!! That's huge!
Timings are back to prepatch - creep tumor is 15s, barracks is 60s etc etc.
Zerg look a bit darker but that could be just me.
Mac performance massively improved (I saw a bunch of GLShaders being copied into the game, my performance has gone back to 1920x1200 at medium)
it means your patch is updated but the system (battle net servers) is not patched yetQuote:

I'd also like to add that a bunch of new shaders were installed for mac users. Game is now vastly faster.Quote:
StarCraft II Beta – Patch 17 (version 0.20.0.16036)
Bug Fixes
Many of the following bug fixes were intended for internal testing only, and are now being reverted.
250mm Strike Cannons can no longer deal damage to hidden targets.
Barracks build time decreased from 65 to 60 seconds.
Bunker build time decreased from 40 to 30 seconds.
Canceling morphing Banelings now returns 75% of the cost like other morphing Zerg units.
Hellion range reverted from 6 to 5.
Reaper build time decreased from 45 to 40 seconds.
Zealot build time decreased from 38 to 33 seconds.
I'm lovin' the balance changes :D It's been a long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long time since I've seen an agreeable buff. I feared I would never live to see one again.
oh thats cool man...i hope ur right bout performanceQuote:

That said, i hope this works ok (crosses fingers).
@Wankey, any idea how much of a performance increase? I know you were running a 8600M macbook pro? I won't have time to test this patch out for a little while but I haven't been able to play beta at all on my computer! It was so bad.

Huge, I am back to playing the game on my 1920x1200 external monitor with low shaders, high physics, high texture, high models, 2D portrait, medium terran, and a slew of other things.Quote:

Sweet! Can't wait to test it out! I noticed bnet doesn't recognize my version either… I guess i am not missing out on anything yet
Hopefully later tonight I will have time
Yeah I was forced to play on my gaming PC, dammit the game looks 1000x better but oh well, I do no work on my gaming PC lol.
My exact situation! ^^ also, my mom uses my gaming PC a lot for her own work because her old PC broke… so I don't get that much opportunity with that one…Quote:
