1.21b Patch Out

[Oninuva]

There are so many people that are so excited.. it seems like people are all using cracks or something.. O_O just a thought.

 

[Sil3nt]

Is this patch compulsory or can you play with 1.21a if you use the cd?

 

[Rapmaster]

It will be forced if you log onto battle.net

 

[Cornface]

Pure awesome. No longer spending hours trying to get my TFT CD working because of the huge cracks.

 

[Bartuc08]

i might actually start playing agian then.. .the only reason i quit was i was tired of CD switching....

After I had posted my concerns about not getting any updates I logged to Battle.net and

Actually, it is us that doesn't run a no-cd crack that benefit from this. The safedisc protection takes about 5-10 seconds to decode that's why start times always are faster with no-cd patch.

This patch came just in time, already gone through 2 TFT CD's, was on my last and original RoC CD, which had pretty large scratches on it.

This is actually quite a useless patch except for the faster loading time imo.
I have my TFT CD in anyway - I rarely did anything which needed a CD.

Same. I haven't seen my CD for a while
It just stays in the drive.

Whew. Great news. What's new in WE, then?

Nothing.
Nothing is new in the game except no cd.

Actually, this way, you can just install it on different computers or your friends computers, then just play it with only one cd.

What about CD-Keys?

Wouldn't that mean that only one of them can go on B.net?

CD Copy protection is an evil thing, it was a ban for me on Linux, it increases the game's loading time, reduces life of CDs, etc.

The best thing is that this looks like a trend, they have also patched Starcraft I if this is right.

 

[Insane!]

honestly, this is an ok patch (now that i have camled down), putting the cd was such a compulsive thing, that I never noticed.

And the AMH? I heard that the new update dissables MapHacks : )

Just 5 mins after he heard the news, my friend say_no_to_war tried all he had and was glad he could tell me that he would no longer need the very unstable, inefficient and game disrupting AMHSystems he was using lol. It was some kinda funny seeing him join one game after another and allways being disconnected from bnet 10 seconds later : D

 

[SFilip]

Just to point out, almost every patch so far had an AntiMapHack of sorts that crashed the game if you used a MapHack.
Of course, this stops working for any new MapHack version that comes out. Shouldn't take too long, a couple of weeks at most, before a 1.21b MapHack that bypasses AMH arrives.

I'm currently reinstalling Warcraft, thanks for the patch Blizzard!
