The game updated for me today, with a build number increase to 21015, while the PTR is on 20757. But there has been no blizzard post or anything stating what if anything this does.
Edit: I’m getting like 350-400fps in melee games on this version and like 250-300 on the previous version (available on PTR). So it seems like some performance improvements may have been made. I hope everyone else is also keeping their framerates high and their temps low!
It seems so. I tried and found that there is indeed a higher and more stable FPS than before, but is this just an update? Will there be other additional updates in this version?
who knows, there is zero communication but at least somebody did something I guess.
Edit: It seems the Chicago server is back, i’m seeing games with two different ping ranges under “USW” again.
Here is the diff file for the patch.
The model change in the ogre is just a newline correction
The change in the EULA is ANSI → UTF8

I’m finding the match reporting to be more reliable than before, but that’s all sever side isn’t it? you wouldn’t see anything about that in the client.
What in the world is this lol
It seems to be part of the Edgar Allan Poe poem The Bells… but I have no idea what it is doing in there. Maybe one of the devs is a fan?
Using something like: Nvidia GeForce 5090 and i9-15900K and 64Gb (2x32Gb) G.Skill Trident DDR4-4600 CL20-30-30-50???
nope all AMD stuff
