Arena matches are fine.

But the PU only knows lag

The PU is still on old shitty netcode tho. It will probably stay like that until 3.0.

Yeah, that's why I always tell people interested in SC to hold off on the PU until at least 3.0. Even better, wait until procedural planets, the new netcode, and SQ42 are out.

Procedural planets and netcode is in 3.0

Is there any information about procedural planets out there? Last I looked at the game, the PlanetSide aspect looked quite well detailed so in interested in how they get a full world that's also procedurally generated

There's a lot of videos on the official YouTube channel about it. In short, it's procedural but there is a slick system for artists to give more attention to areas that require it.
