Can't update WCIII?

Postby antmanmax » Wed Apr 05, 2017 3:59 am

WC3 says it needs to be updated, but the update either fails, or Battle.net tells me it can't be updated through battle.net.

I uninstalled and reinstalled RoC and TFT but it still wants to be updated. What do I need to do?

There's nothing you can do atm. Blizzard hasnt finished the patch according to their support team.

Thanks for the quick reply!

I had noticed most of the lobbies were empty on ENT, glad it's not just something screwy with my computer.

It worked for you because the patch was ready.
Patch now but ENT hasn't patched the bots. No games for patched players besides standard so far.
There is a checkbox in the Video options for people who want to get the game screen to their liking.

iambackk - The apem bot was probably down at the moment. It is up on East right now.
