There is no such thing as patch 13. There was patch 12, and then the next patch we got was 14.

"But come on... the people in patch 14... they know what patch they're really in."

Oh hai! Welcome to the beta, Arkalis. I hope you enjoy your stay.

Hai, and Im not actually new to beta but...

Oh wait, was that sarcasm?

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)

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?

it means your patch is updated but the system (battle net servers) is not patched yet

[Norfindel]

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?

That's a core game mechanic, and isn't a problem. Makes things more predictable.
They given 60dmg with splash against all units for the Siege Tank, however. That's a lot, and kills a group of small units like there's no tomorrow. Big units are affected like always, so it's very powerfull.

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'd also like to add that a bunch of new shaders were installed for mac users. Game is now vastly faster.

I'm lovin' the balance changes 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.
