Hearthsone Unplayable

[SilverStuddedSquirre]

So ever since Hearthstone went live yesterday, mine is Unplayable. The screen constantly tries to reset and it is Maddening. I cannot play for the screen black out every 2 seconds, for 2 seconds. It is definitely Hearthstone and not my PC. Every other game and program works flawlessly. Is it just me? I know its just jumped to live from Beta but GodDamn it!

This is why I am a console gamer.

I've been in the beta for a few months now and never had a problem.

It might just be you, man.

Same here.

I've been playing since it went into Open Beta about a month and a half ago, basically every single day, and only had minor problems. It's timed out a few times, but never done anything like that. Maybe update your graphics drivers?

Played yesterday when after they announced Heathstone was going live but before it was live. It was fine. I literally just finished playing today - played two games and it was fine. Must really be you.

Also, don't really see the discussion value here.

I had a problem yesterday just after it went live it completely froze my machine and then sent it nuts the second time I rebooted it twice though and that seemed to solve the issue god knows what they did though. That said I havent played it today I literally just tried to jump on and its updating itself so probably wont have time for a game now.

I haven't played since it went live. Hell, I don't think I've downloaded the patch yet. It was working great for me the last time I fired it up. Perhaps you might want to reinstall it.

Pretty similar experience with myself too.

Been playing throughout beta and went online yesterday and all was fine. I've had a few instability issues/crashes, but the game reboots so easily and was in beta, so I didn't really see it as much of an issue.

Played yesterday, played this morning. Aside from when they've had network down or updating stuff, I've never had a problem. Well except for interface glitches ingame like cards in hand stacking on top of eachother and such.

Servers were down for and update recently though.

I've played since Closed Beta and never ran into that one... And I ran into almost all of them.

Such as the evergreen "your shaders are on acid" [http://i.imgur.com/hpBtw86.jpg], including the extreme version [http://i.imgur.com/S7AD1if.png] or the fairly unknown "might as well concede because you have a giant pink square in the middle of the screen that's blocking everything so you can't even see what's being played" [http://i.imgur.com/4X5kALL.jpg]. And of course, the more common assorted variety of floating cards, overlapping cards, timer glitches, and practically everything in the list.

As stupid as it might seem, try messing around with the graphics settings, such as lowering/raising the quality/resolution and/or switching between windowed mode and full screen. I know the "on acid" glitch is/was caused by alt tabbing, so playing in windowed mode prevents it... So maybe this is a weird bastard extension of that glitch?

No harm in trying if you haven't yet.

It's absolutely your computer and something to do with your settings and how they interact with the game.

I've started today and after completing the tutorial I don't seem to be able to play either online or practice matches. It just disconnects every time I try to, and not before :-/

 

[DarkhoIlow]

I've been playing Heartstone for a few months (beta included) and I have never countered a problem such as yours.

Must say that it's probably on your end most likely. The game is not bug free of course, but what you're experiencing shouldn't happen.

 

[Magix]

That specific problem probably has to do with your computer, but I have to say this is a pretty disgraceful state to call the game "released". So far they've been sort of able to get away with the numerous visual bugs by saying "it's beta", now they sort of just got rid of that excuse for no apparent reason.

Minions still pop up in random places near the opponents hand instead of the battlefield, ghost cards stay on the battlefield after they die, floating cards out of place, end turn button sticks around after your turn, etc.

I mean this is NOT a complicated game, you're just moving cards around. I mean the visuals are great and they've put a lot of work into the animations for sure, but I don't see how they can still have so many bugs around. I wouldn't expect this from an indie developer, much less Blizzard

Played a bit last night and I have gotta say I have encountered way more bugs now its out of beta than I did in beta it was a chore to finish my last few arena matches and me and a friend spent a good 15 minutes trying to add each other the game just seemingly refusing to send the request despite stating otherwise, very dissapointing.

I also thing a little more balancing needed to be in order its pretty good but they could have made it better this isnt Magic strategies are pretty limited (and thus balancing is easier) although thankfully still good enough to build decks around.
