[STARCRAFT @StarCraft]

Time for the 5.0.17 PTR! Based on feedback for the last patch, we are rolling back most balance changes to 5.0.15, while keeping bug fixes and the current map pool. This will be on PTR for the next few days while we bug test, before we push to live.

[SHIN HEEBEOM @SC2_SHIN]

A major reason Koreans don’t want to play SC2 ladder right now is cheating, probably even more than balance. When hackers are this blatant and nothing is done, it’s hard to want to play. I barely can either.

[Ammaar Reshi @ammaar]

I used Fable 5 to port Command & Conquer: Generals Zero Hour to the iPhone and iPad!

This is the actual 2003 engine compiled for ARM64 natively, no emulator.

Campaign, skirmish, Generals Challenge all work with touch controls built for an RTS.

Open sourcing it all below!

[Kahris @chrissotraidis]

Inspired by @ammaar getting C&C Generals running natively on iPad, I did the same for Warcraft II using Codex 5.6 Sol.

It's the open-source Stratagus/Wargus engine compiled for ARM64, rendering through Metal via SDL2. No emulator, no x86, no streaming from a Mac.

Campaigns, skirmish, and save/load all work, with touch controls. First time I've seen Warcraft II run natively on iPad.

Open sourcing it all below.

Short SC2 stream today.

Twitch → StateSC2

[Ryan Visbeck @StateSC2]

@alpha0meqa I’ve been moaning a bunch about it because my rating has tanked. But honestly, I think it’s a skill issue. Need to watch more pro games before I can have an informed opinion.

[Ryan Visbeck @StateSC2]

Back from Jeju, playing some ladder.

Twitch → StateSC2

[Ryan Visbeck @StateSC2]

@LowkoTV Are you crazy? This would never work

[Ryan Visbeck @StateSC2]

Going on vacation for the weekend. Will be back Wednesday with another StarCraft stream

[Ryan Visbeck @StateSC2]

Keeping up the new patch grind. Maybe pizza later.

Twitch → StateSC2

[Ryan Visbeck @StateSC2]

@GGemini19 Where was this yesterday when I needed you, Geminus?

[Ryan Visbeck @StateSC2]

Some more StarCraft ladder, gonna try and figure out some of this new Protoss stuff

Twitch → StateSC2

[Ryan Visbeck @StateSC2]

@triggerSC2 If you got any good PvT/PvZ builds pass em my way. Would like to check out your approach

[Ryan Visbeck @StateSC2]

Hmm, new patch feeling a bit rough

[Ryan Visbeck @StateSC2]

@triggerSC2 I'm bad, so hard to tell if my experience matches what top players think.

But PvZ feels very campy, like it's hard to get out on the map until maxed.

PvP feels about the same, my favorite matchup right now.

PvT I'm neutral, need more games to form an opinion.
