General

Exciting new replay features have been added to Heart of the Swarm.

Watch With Others - This feature allows you to watch replays in sync with other players on Battle.net.
Take Command - This feature allows you or your group to take control of selected player armies while watching a replay.
Recover Game - This feature allows you to recover a prematurely ended game from a replay.
For more details about these new features, please see our overview on the StarCraft II Community Site.


Vs. AI Mode has been enabled. Players can now challenge an AI opponent that scales in difficulty.
Training Mode has been enabled. In Training Mode, you’ll work your way up from basic StarCraft gameplay skills to greater challenges designed to hone your skills.
Lots of tweaks and polish have been made to the new UI throughout the beta.
I guess with that whining about replays and LAN is pretty much over. But the community will find other things to whine over. :D

I think this is a huge step forward for Esports. Now stuff like disconnects and computer crash won't affect the proffesional scene anymore.

ALso the "Take command" option is quite huge. I think that option has the potential that koreans pull even further ahead, cause they can practice a certain situation on and on without the waste of time to begin a new game to come to that certain situation again. And koreans are the gods of practice

Yeah exactly... I think this is going to make the game so much better.
