Howdy Friends,
We’re excited to debut play between classic and Reforged assets. We would greatly appreciate that everyone tries to play games with both options.
SPECIFIC CHANGES & IMPROVEMENTS
- Stability improvements for custom games
- Map loading time decreased significantly
- Classic mode now active to play with original assets
- Can be toggled in Options from the main menu
- Menus do not change based on SD/HD
- Cannot be changed in game (we don’t load both sets of assets to save memory usage)

I was surprised when i noticed a 5 GB patch in launcher 
I was expecting a sample of campaign, but maybe next time 
It seems that we never know when the patching time comes ;-)))

Still having issues connecting to custom games. Only works 10% of the time. Chat is still broken, too. Text overlays over everything, even with chat closed.

I’d like to know what stability improvement for custom game means.
The game needs a lot of stability improvement not just for custom games but for ladder matches.
Did they fix the bad fps ?
Seems much smoother so far! One piece of feedback:
Healthbars on classic graphics are a bit difficult. Right now it looks like they are colored by the players’ color, rather than how full the HP gauge is (e.g. an almost dead unit does not have a red healthcare like in classic). Can make it quite a bit difficult to recognize in battle (for example, I just played a purple undead, and his purple healthbars on blight were difficult to see). So far so good though!
