    it is EXACTLY the same, moving two probes across the map, one in old replay, the other not.

    When you watch replays they run slower then the actual game btw . Check the newest replays out and look at the resource counter . Players struggle to spend their resources by mid game. Or play against a friend ... the speed of overlords now or speed of zerglings un upgraded without creep or speed of zelots without charge.

    ....On faster, it is exactly the same. Stop being so paranoid. :P

    Also, if it is slower, that means they slowed down normal gameplay speeds...because it also takes the same time under current patch replays. Go check it out yourself.

    Can't say I've felt a speed change. *Shrug*

    Yeah I don't get this whole thread. Nothing seems faster to me, my APM doesn't seem to have changed drastically (but each game is different so it's hard to tell), and a change of speed never would have crossed my mind to be honest. If anything I find myself alt-tabbing into my dual screen a whole lot more in the early game...

    Has anyone confirmed this speed change? I haven't seen this discussed anywhere else.

    You wouldn't be able to see this change in replays though, since the replay speed didn't correlate with in-game speed anyways right?

    It has changed. You can notice it clearly by how fast harvesters move and zealots and Spawn larva. With Protoss I don't notice much, since protoss isn't as taxing as other races.

    I haven't notice a change either, but this issue has been brought up on other sites too (examples here and here). Coincidence?

    You should be able to make comparisons between (1) current replays and (2) YouTube videos of older replays. What you probably can't do is compare older replays you have stored on your computer to current replays, since both of those would likely be reenacted according to current speed settings (I'm not completely sure, though). It isn't clear to me which method of comparison we're talking about here.

    I think the non-Zerg players don't notice. I notice it a ton when I play Zerg but not nearly as much when I'm the other races.

    I am almost positive that this is a latency issue. Up until today I couldn't tell a difference. However, I started playing with Fyrinite who lives very close to me. The very first game we played everything moved noticeably faster. Subsequent games seemed to be going at the speed it should, but everything was a lot smoother than normal.

    It's also important to note that this isn't something you would miss. You'll know it when it happens to you.

    They definitely did not speed the game up. Watch youtube videos of probes harvesting. It is exactly the same rate, exactly the same turn rate, exactly the same move speed.

    So this is just mass hysteria.
