Hey everyone,

We ran into an issue during the publishing process when we were pushing today’s patch to the live PTS server. We are now re-staging the build, which takes several hours. As a result, the PTS patch deployment will be delayed until tomorrow. Apologies for the delay, and thank you for your patience.

    Is the spaghetti code finally catching up to them? We've all known the code to be pretty spaghetti, with fixes often breaking something else as a result, but I can't remember a time in this game's life cycle were there's been such a consistent issue with applying patches.

    I see a thread with like 10 comments asking for patch notes, and a couple gifs.

    And one comment that made me hungry for pasta.

    Aww, okay :/

    Any Patch Notes previews you can give, anyway?
    Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.

    Meet my characters:
    Command: Do the thing.

    Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
    Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
    Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
    Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
    Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
    Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
    Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
    Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
    Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
    Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.

    Surely you didn't miss your own insult to the quality of the work the dev team puts in? and, unless I am mistaken, long standing policy has been notes AFTER patch installation.

    Hey, you don't even know yet what that is ! Maybe it's a crate with 25 crown store tripots inside ! :D

    We better settle down. Zos might quickly decide we had a better idea than them and implement one of them instead. :D:trollface:

    Uh-oh. Maybe I'm RIGHT! :tongue:

    Well, I'm glad there was no live patch today, seeing as you guys are getting very consistent at screwing the update process up. Think you guys should really look into why this happens every week.

    Things like this are why they do not publish patch notes before the patch is applied. Things go wrong, certain fixes/changes in patch that are causing problems need to be pulled out, and so on. So publishing patch notes early would run risk of publishing stuff that is not going to make it into the patch. Which is likely to open up a can of worms they would like to avoid. Why was a change pulled? A minor issue that will be fixed by next incremental? A major issue that calls into question whether they can ever add this change to game?

    That being said...

    Get your act together with patching, ZOS. The occasional delay is understandable. But this is becoming the norm, not the exception. It looks unprofessional and reflects badly on the company and the game.
