WarCraft III gets widescreen support & balance changes, more on the way
- Thread starter City 17

afaik, the client you download from battle.net will always be the latest one. I haven't gotten around to downloading it myself, so I'm not 100% sure
If connecting to battle.net doesn't work you can try and cancel the connection screen and re-try. It's weird but sometimes it doesn't properly connect.
Nothing. I use the cd version of the game. The update need to install the blizzard battle.net client to update. I was fibe. In glory days of this game I used to download a patch just to update the cd base version (the last update introduce Firelord).
Anw, most of this update are multiplayer focused, I still play using LAN with my friends.
The update also changes the singleplayer game. All the resolution, balance and map changes are also applied to the singleplayer game. By the way; you should redeem your code on Battle.net so you don't need your cd the next time you want to play: https://eu.battle.net/account/management/claim-code.html (for EU)
You store your CD key there and you'll be able to download the client from the same website.
Note that one of the later WC3 updates merged RoC and TFT into "one game", with toggle on the menu. Might be one reason why CD version doesn't update anymore.
Definitively suggest "redeeming" the CD key on Bnet account and downloading the latest client from there, that should work and it doesn't need CD to play as noted.
I don't think Warcraft 3 requires Battle.net app, if one worries about that for whatever reason.

There really is no reason to keep using the cd version of the game anymore, especially since you can just redeem your keys on battle.net as SuikerBrood mentioned above
And if you want a portable offline version, you can copy the game to a USB drive. (For things like LAN parties)

This is insane, he's keeping this game alive single handedly. Grubby is a fantastic streamer by the way. Really enjoy his streams.

Yesterday he got an insane request on stream, to steal an Undead worker and go tier 3 Undead while playing as Orc, which he miraculously pulled off on 3rd try (only because the 1st two games were against non-Undead races). He got a lvl 6 Dark Ranger with Orc!, made a suicide run into the Undead base, stole the Acolyte and TP'ed (since the Acolyte wouldn't last 1 sec in that environment). Then he made some crazy never seen before buffs, like buffing units with all the mages of both races at the same time, while backed up by the group healing of both the Witchdoctor and Obsidian Statue.
Haha, brilliant. Just tried some 4vs4 random team games, but half of the people desynced because they haven't installed the patch yet.. :')
