Warcraft III: Reforged Patch Notes

Let’s wait another month and a half to get more footprints and updated visuals, with nothing essential!

Imagine that you want to purchase a whole cow to freeze for meat, which will last you and your family a couple of years of sustenance. So you go to your local cattle farm to discuss the purchase and processing of a cow.

The person working there takes you to view their livestock selection, of which you are free to choose your cow for purchase to have processed. You walk up to the fencing and select your cow; the man turns and says to you “Okay, sure! We can have it slaughtered, processed and packaged for you in a weeks time.” You then proceed back to the storefront to complete the purchase of said cow and services, then leave to go home and wait the week for your meat to be ready.

One week later, you return to the farm to retrieve your splendors. Something feels very off about the way the workers are behaving, and the farm seems vacant of life–all of the cows that were there last week have seemingly disappeared. After a while of waiting, you are eventually greeted by the same farmer you did business with a week ago.

He won’t make eye contact with you, and proceeds to mutter almost indistinguishably that “you ain’t gettin’ no cow right now, gotta wait”. Taken back by his statement, you don’t know what to say as you try to digest the drastic change in demeanor from a week ago. After an awkward moment goes by, you become angry and tell the man that he will give you the cow you paid for or else!!.. The man looks scared. He beguilingly proceeds to limp into the back room, returning with a squeaky-wheeled cart with a few lbs of wrapped meat in it. “Hurr’s the meat you ordered, fine sir” he grumbles, as he pushes the cart forcefully into your personal space. You immediately make stunning observations: this is not fresh meat, it cannot be from the cow you chose, and it is a mere fraction of the amount promised. The packages wreak of a sour, foot-like odor. You attempt to immediately return the product for your money back, but the farmer quickly halts you, “our refund system is broken, you cayn’t dew that.”

You initiate a lawsuit.

The lawsuit eventually settles with the farmer being forced to allow refunds for spoiled meat, but only after it’s sat in your freezer stankin’ up the place for a good while. The farmer completely disregards accountability for his actions and the disgusting manner in which his farm concludes business, but still beguilingly agrees to gradually offer cuts of semi-fresh meat to those who will still buy from him, but never will deliver whole cows as once promised.

Time goes by, but you remain angry. Your anger is fueled by lingering bitterness towards the farmer, and the delicious cow you once thought you’d have (and paid for). After many, many suns and moons, you feel the tiniest shred of forgiveness towards the farm in hopes that they may have learned from their mistakes, and because they are the only farm to have offered exactly what you want. You decide to make a return visit to the farm, not to do business, but to investigate the scene.

You notice that there are indeed some cows roaming the pastures once again, workers are moving about, and all seems relatively normal. You proceed to the storefront to investigate further, but you are suddenly walled off from doing so by a hideous stench cascading from the doors to the back room. Knowing better, you turn away and leave to never return. The farm still sells rancid meat to this day under the premise of falsely advertising whole, fresh cow deals.

Where are you seeing return statistics? I don’t see it in the OP

Wow thank you blizzard for this beta update i wished this update was back in december during the beta. And why do you call this an update it brings nothing new and removes my icons, campaign progress in classic mode. We don’t want these updates because they should not be updates this should have been fixes during the beta and not now live. Come on Blizzard we are waiting 3 months now for clans,profiles,ladders and custom campaigns to return and all you are working on are some footprints. And return the icons and the campaign progress because this is like the 4th time this happens to me and they are just getting boring to do.

Is there ever going to be a Map Maker for Mac? That’s what I want the most. Also the game crashes all the time and reverts to the main menu.

How politically correct of Blizzard! Remember, everyone, there are no biological differences between males and females.

I was inactive for like 2 years, was hyped to get on the battle net now again and kick some games but – I’m out as well. this is a mess, form the very beginning I was confused by the UI and searched for channels, profile, ladder and was searching on google how to find the ladder and sh1t, only to find out everything is totally messed up.

hey honest question: why do you say they removed your icons? I logged in and my bnet win icons are still there

Icons you unlock by playing melee games. Like “win 5 Nightelf matches” for the Archer icon

People complained that shes too thin, people complain shes too “normal” now but most importantly, people complained that shes not as visible as the male counterpart and this is the main reason for the change. So pack your Conspiracy theory and move along

Thx for letting me play it with my 20 years old key like for free!

Please make the numpad inventory keys mappable to the standard keys so i do not need autohotkey anymore.
