i just played a game. Let the replay play itself till the end. 62 APM avg in the end, game time.
i took out sc2gears, which translated it to 109 APM Real time.
this means that sc2 gears still counts the same values for APM like before, only the ingame blizz apm counter is altered.

if sc2gears would have shown my real apm considering the new changes in 1.4.0. i 'd have had 87 APM that game. But since sc2gears doesn't care about blizazrd's changes, it's 109, as before

for sc2gears, enable "Show APM in Real time instead of Game time" and remove the intervall that normally dictates when sc2gears starts maesuringyour apm (there is an option which prevents the first 120 seconds from being taken into account, disable it so it is coherent with the way blizzard does it)

i take it everybody's APM will be reduced by a bit more than 20% ingame^^

I hopped from 100 to 60, so thats 40%. Maybe due to my way of spamming and my spammy style of micro though :)
