Why cant you upload the patch notes while the update is being installed

✭✭I believe they perform some testing and various checks while server is still offline, so the patch notes may not be final until this is complete.1 -

lol, testing and checks, wtf is that. they are all about throwing *** against the wall and hoping something sticks, you can bet your bottom dollar that it will crash, and glitch as soon as it's avail for DL0 -

✭✭✭✭✭@ZOS_GinaBruno gets called just before lunch and has to jot down the patch notes very quickly on a sheet of waste paper with a broken pencil. While keeping an eye on the cooking food she then has to retype them on a typewriter acquired in the year 1956. It's still really awesome. After finishing them up she sends a carrier pigeon to the offices where they are typed into the forum then.
At least that's how I picture it every patch day.Main characters: Feanor the Believer - AD Altmer mSorc - AR 50 - Flawless Conqueror (PC EU)Idril Arnanor - AD Altmer mSorc - CP 217 - Stormproof (PC NA)Other characters:Necrophilius Killgood - DC Imperial NecromancerFearscales - AD Argonian Templar - Stormproof (healer)Draco Imperialis - AD Imperial DK (tank)Cabed Naearamarth - AD Dunmer mDKValirion Willowthorne - AD Bosmer stamBladeTuruna - AD Altmer magBladeKheled Zaram - AD Redguard stamDKKibil Nala - AD Redguard stamSorc - StormproofYavanna Kémentárí - AD Breton magWardenAzog gro-Ghâsh - EP Orc stamWardenVidar Drakenblød - DC Nord mDKMarquis de Peyrac - DC Breton mSorc - StormproofRawlith Khaj'ra - AD Khajiit stamWardenTu'waccah - AD Redguard StamplarAll chars 50 @ CP 1900+.

✭Imagine that your patch notes you compiled on Friday and posted when maintenance began include something like "Fixed a quest NPC that was bugging out." You go to apply the patch, and it turns out that this fix either broke something else, or doesn't actually work. Now you have to go back and change that, but people saw that the quest NPC was "fixed". Then misinformation spreads and you have to do damage control, creating more work.
They are actually written over the weekend, IIRC, but Gina and Jessica won't post them until they're sure that all the changes listed are actually going into the patch to prevent having to recant notes.1
