Sorry for the broken codes it worked properly when I pasted it.


Anyways I had a few minutes to experience with the new patch! It looks awesome!! Korean server in now in the list, the whole battle.net interface is different even the server list, account creation, channels, etc. APM and game timer in game menu... plus a new input option in the menu!!


I was looking for the directdraw.dll I could not spot one in the games directory.... I was planning to try that on war2 Lol!

Damn! That is exactly what war2 needs!

But of course sc:bw has much more fans and get's the attention. (Truly deserved it)

Maybe, because of the compatibility of the 2 games we could salvage some of the features. I do not know. But as tupac mentioned get their ddraw. Or compare the patch sc to do similar patches to war2.

They are not scrapping sc:remastered, it will come out, and players of the free brood war and remastered can play matches with each other.
