should of/would of

What’s even worse is that Blizzard claims they take a strong stance against hackers?and support all its online game titles? but clearly, the Starcraft ladder suggests otherwise. In fact, battle.net’s ladder section doesn’t even mention Starcraft as having a ladder, so apparently, Blizzard doesn’t even recognize that the game has or had one. And they have the nerve to release a patch that adds in features to the game that should of shipped with release. Oh wow, I can ping the mini-map! Oh look! I can actually set rally points with the mouse, instead of hitting R. Wowzors, my productivity has increased .05% ! Boxor watch out! How about fixing the fucking ladder so we can actually play the game instead? Or maybe a patch that allows the AMM system? I mean, would that even require any real work besides cut & pasting it from War3’s Bnet code?

Haha, yeah thats a pretty funny typo. Warcraft battlechess would of made a pretty neat game too.

Is "of" equal to "have" here?

It seems the confusion is with how "should have" would pronounce in a relaxed way of speaking : something like "should've" which almost sounds like "should of". But as for how it has to write, it definitely has to be "should have". Same with "would have".
