not sure if this is a similar problem than the ones that was reported, which was to do with particle effect not showing (fire included) when too many units on map.

in the replay was there a lot of units or very few? if its only very few could be a new issue

Not really. It was early in a 1v1 game. So there were not so many units on the map.
Even more, in the next game I watched using the same session, the very first fireship was fireless as well.

Did you notice any difference in the other particle effects as well? i.e. research glow, mine glow, dust trail etc.?

I’m sorry, I didn’t notice. Maybe I didn’t pay enough attention to those details.
