Did anyone play FFA on SC2? Anything outside of 1v1 felt so weird to me.
i play 2v2s with RL friends in either WoL or HotS. its a lot of fun and both WoL and HotS have fast matchmaking.
some of my friends think HotS is too complex so we stick to WoL if they think that.

Why does ist say in the pic that it's live, sadly it's not T.T checked on NA and EU too.
Edit: Apparently it's already live on SEA.

Most of the time you will meet 3 friends "playing solo" and u will play a 1V3 game basically.

It's live on SEA server. You can go and check the new interface guys
Says 2,000,000 players on the b.net server
-Lines and colors feels better. -Mouse Pointer Size option is awesome for me as a player who loses the cursor a lot :D

I shall wait for Cyro to come to this thread and give us a good knowledge bomb on what we can expect from a 64 bit game of SC2.

It isn't too bad. But with time constraint, i spend all my time on 1v1 (or some 4v4 just for fun). Same here. FFA can be fun, but considering how long the queue was, it's a lot easier to just muck around in team games instead.

Is there a place to view this without being through imgur? I don't see it posted on Blizzard's website anywhere.

FFA IS STILL THERE!! It says it got removed from the standard matchmaking but it is still on the "Custom Games"
BTW I can't believe they released the patch... like seriously... and suddenly all the games I don't play from Blizz in like a whole life are updating but still no signal of SC2 lol
Anyway I am glad with the new UI and I hope I can find people to play StarBow easier than before now... but still I am surprised on how they delivered it now so fast, like they put some effort there, maybe some faith could be restored... (specially on the subject of better SC2 features and design changes after LotV release)

Cannot wait to try out all this new neat stuff, thanks Blizzard~
EDIT : Although, was there really no further updates in the Clan / Tournament sections? Not sure how I feel about that.

I'd love for someone who is technologically competent to explain what the 64 bit change will mean.
Obviously now on our 64 bit processors the game should increase in performance, however with the engines well known problems with murdering CPUs could this increase of usage capability (wording??) make little to no difference?

It could perform better, it could perform worse, depends on their implementation. Probably will perform better.

THE CARRIER CHANGE IS IN THERE
interceptors now attack a new target without returning :D
|
I wonder if there will be any further UI updates and polish once LotV releases, other than the new modes and automated tournaments.

The 2 billion/million players are on any blizz-game though, right? Like with WoW, Hearth and Heroes.

Heroes of the Storm has a 64bit version and it's worse than the 32bit for a lot of people myself included(no idea why) so I wouldn't expect much.
