Starting a game on faster speed setting

[pdizzy]

Is there a way to start the game with the fastest possible speed from the start? I always have to go into the options at the very beginning to set it to the battle.net speed. Yes, I realize it's hotkey'd to -/+ but that's not any less annoying than going into options > gameplay.

i hate this problem,fml

Mmmh...Pressing +/- is annoying? 

[Sacroidd]

Well, in my opinion it's annoying to press + each time I start a game...

[Unholyfox]

lol you cant be THAT lazy.. press it twice and your done. not that difficult

What is the speed the people play on at B.Net? is it not normal?

They play on the fastest possible speed... but anyway pressing twice "+" is still not equal to start with max game speed and it has nothing to do with laziness.

I hope the launchers will support this feature soon!

This isn't about laziness at all. SC has always been about precise timing and that is especially true for openers. Having to press + at the start is somewhat distracting. And yes, it's annoying. Annoying things are usually tiny things like that.

You can use Zoxc's launcher from here:

with Doix's plugin for speed:

(read down a bit. there you have speed 0.2 and 0.3 versions)
