If you guys haven't noticed, the Battlecast Viewer that was promised has been released. Now if you have the game, which probably most of you do, you do not need this. This is specifically meant for people to view replays and matches without the game. It comes at a whopping 1.4 GB for those of you interested

Apoc has also posted some information concerning some changes to the Battlecast System. Here's his post.

Hey everyone,
As promised, we dramatically enhanced the BattleCast Website System today, actually around lunch time earlier, so apologies for not posting earlier, we were sneaky for a bit!

Let me tell you, the BattleCast Website system now runs incredibly fast and quite frankly is the fastest place to go to find a replay for anyone who has BattleCasted their match, or even cooler, anyone who wants you to watch their match live.

YOU SHOULD ALWAYS BATTLECAST YOUR MATCH, just make sure the box is clicked before you start a match online.
We'll be discussing the ehancements in more depth early next week, but here is a general outline:
COOLEST NEW FEATURE - You can go in to anyone's profile, view their match history, and for any match they have BattleCast, you can click that line in their history and it will take you instantly to the match in our BattleCast system to download and watch! Want to watch top ladder players matches quickly, click their name and view their history, click a BattleCast match and its as easy as that.
-The system now runs on a a different back-end so the performance in general has increased 10-fold. As soon you login to the system, you'll almost immedietly be presented with matches to choose from.
-Click the Search tab arrow and you'll see similar options to select from, but they are much more user friendly to work with. The search system in general is very quick now.
-Click "My Matches" to instantly view all matches which YOU have BattleCast. The same goes for "My Clans Matches", if you are in a Clan
-Click "Top Matches" and you'll be presented with a new section where the "best" C&C 3 BattleCast matches are filtered to by a new top secret highly confidential mathematical algorithm. Generally speaking, a lot of factors including rank, skill, experience, record, etc go in to this algorith which places matches here. This will be updating constantly.
-Click "Historic Matches" to see matches which we will eventually deem "HISTORIC". This is where myself and team place the best replays of C&C 3 ever, and I mean EVER. Or significant matches, like a WCG final for example. This section will update soon and be ongoing.
That is the top-line, there are a lot more intricate enhancements which we will discuss early next week. Hit up the enhanced BattleCast system at this link, you know it:

Thanks everyone, keep BattleCasting,

Whole thread here
Basically, the system for viewing replays through the Battlecast site has been sped up and finding replays are easier. Technically, viewing replays should be much easier. You can also find replays more easier for members by viewing their profiles and you have more sorting options. He also mentions an option to find "Historic Matches", which he and the team have found to be excellent (Though they have not added matches to that category yet). There is also the Top Matches tab which will show some of the matches by ranked players, a tab for your previous matches as well as your clan's. Overall, I think the new system is much nicer, vastly improved over the lag and loading issues the previous one had.
