Widescreen Gaming Forum

Im sure you can still use an old cracked SC version that is compatible with the mod.

*Sigh* nVidia' PR department needs to get there head out there ass and stop developers from calling hardware upgrades cheating,
what next, maybe they will ban all the nVidia GPU's and gaming mice because that's cheating so we will just live in the stone age of 3dfx Voodoo 3.

If they sell me a game that has "nVidia the way it was meant to be played" logo, I expect full feature support including nVidia 3d Surround.

Just in case you all haven't tried this: The game seems to work perfectly in portrait mode eyefintiy without any modifications. Give it a shot.

I honestly prefer a single monitor for competitive play, but it's still cool none the less.

?
Still no new news :(
I can't see why we can't at least have single player campaign without the lowest common denominator in
hardware crippling our experience.
I usually don't subscribe to legitimizing piracy cuz i'd rather talented people have jobs if I can afford it. But
since I already bought this game multiple times for family multiplaying fun...
I can't see how I am hurting the industry
( unless promoting 3d surround when research and implementation of as much is hurting the industry's bottom line. in which case, "tuff sh|t" )
I will wait n see, but jes knowing that there is probably a cracked beta that runs fine in multi-monitor while I
suffer with my crippled graphics iz really starting to irk me.

Does anyone still care about widescreen support for this game? seems like there has been a few reports of banning's so I have not bothered to update it, have had a 1-2 PM's however.

I would prefer to be banned then not have the option to play in surround!
please any updates possible?
I am rewarded for buying multiple copies of this game with this narrow minded bullsh|t!
But that at least gives me LAN fun at home! ( no cheating here! Although everyone does have some korean blood... doesn't seem to help cuz we all still suck :p )

I am guessing that you cannot keep yer game offline forever?
In which case would making an image of my system "freeze" my starcraft account? ( So if a glitch happens that requires me to log - in again to activate, I can instead just load the image to a previous state? )

Sort of love-hate desperate here. ( and still trying to not resort to piracy if pirating a game you have bought multiple times is even possible. )

Between no 3d in Brink, Rage and Battlefield ( and a slew of racing games )
And no NV surround in any RTS 2011 is shaping up to be an infuriating year.

I can see extra surround being unfair for competitive gameplay maybe... but it's not banned in FPSes like Counter-strike 1.6/Source, so I don't see what the big deal is for RTSes. Does having slightly extra map vision really give it that much of an advantage? It's not like there's 3 proper (independent) cameras.

Even with the ridiculous price drop of monitors in the past year ditto for the affordable gpu investment now available... And pretending that the few people on this earth who are more impovershed than myself AND are playing starcraft competively? Lets STILL call it cheating. In which case the QQ whining and aggravation would be only "felt" by them for what? A day at the most? Perhaps 3 more times in a year when that person remembers to be petty and envious that day?
Whereas EVERY time I fire up starcraft I feel the infuriating blood boiling crippling immersive foul punishment. Every single time my Starcraft experience is spoiled with agitation. I curse my enemy with some kind of color tv world with only black and white programming dictated by the whims of the lowest common denominator! A pox on all their houses!

I need to go break something...

one one hand i want to say "this is crazy, next MW / BF servers will start banning people with DPI switching mice! CRAZY!

but on the other hand, look at SC1, having ranked matches and national gaming leagues and such. and in those circles unfair advantage is not cool. and they are hoping SC2 gets the same treatment. and so far, so good. you can watch commentaty on matches and all kinda crap. so its serious business.
But they should still have something in place to allow us the luxutry of doing SINGLE player stuff in ultra-wide modes

Hi

the fix isn't working for me...im assuming because of the ban wave the updates stopped?

no matter what it I set it to, always says cant find resolution..

what about single player game?

my version is 2,1,2,2525


any help would be great.

regards

Sean

Too bad that it doesn't support ultra-wide... :(

well at least that explains why every time i try to run SC2 on 5760 x 2160 (eyefinity 6) it always crashes after it loads sucesfully
but if i leave it at 1920 x 1080 then it works fine

I'm sure its probably a little late, but I still care about ultrawide support for starcraft 2. I host a ton of LAN parties out of my home, out in the styx. Internet doesn't exist where I live, but I've recently found a work around for starcraft 2 to be played via LAN. unfortunately, all the rigs I run are sporting ultrawide monitors. the client we are running is version 1.4.3, but this is subject to change if/when I purchase copies of HOTS, and LOTV for all the LAN rigs. Please consider updating this patch.
