No patch, no patch notes. It was just maintenance.

They just wanted to see how long they could make the queues.

I won’t make another thread asking why the hell did we have such extended downtime if we didn’t even get a patch, and just be grumpy cat here about why we didn’t get a patch with an 11hr maintenance period.

Seem to recall dev post about one benefit to going to 2 week maintenance periods even on PC (forced by the console inclusion) was so they could at least roll more patches out during these fewer scheduled downtime periods.

The two-week patch cadence on PC was forced by Stadia last year, not with the launch on consoles back in 2015:

That’s what I meant. As in stadia inclusion into the maint period. I guess stadia really isn’t a console but I meant in sams way consoles dictate a certain patch rule bc they need time to review any upload, same for stadia, it dictates the timing whereas before stadia inclusion Pc could patch whenever zos suited, not whenever the 3rd party let them

Maintenance pro: "Okay... which cord did you yank out?"

Intern: "It was a white one, I think..."

Maintenance guy, quietly holding back his tears:
