Hi there, folks! Wanted to pop in and reconfirm that Update 5 will be coming on Monday for NA, and Tuesday for EU. We are updating the sticky right now to make it clearer that the European maintenance is going to be very early Tuesday morning for the EU (which is very late evening Monday for those in NA).

That seems pretty confirmed to me.

Way to be optimistic.

The patch notes are generated, created and edited before the build and maintenance take place, but we do wait to see if any changes have failed before "finalizing" them. It also takes time to format them properly in the forums - the longer they are, the longer it takes. This is something we do need to do manually.I think your too hung up on the word finalizing. The reason you don't get patch notes first is because not all patches or fixes might be "accepted" by the system during update it hasn't happened in a while, but there was a maintenance time early on when they had to scrap the whole patch process because of an error encountered. In your scenario of having them released ahead of time you would have people complaining about not getting something that they were promised. At that point they would have "lost" something.
They aren't typing the patch notes when the patch is being applied. They are waiting to see if the patch is finalized. Not the notes. On the live servers we always get the patch notes before the server is brought back online.
You are being highly critical for no reason of a process that needs to work in the way it does.

Still don't understand why there are no Patch Notes, do they not know what they are adding?
Now whilst unable to play the game is when you want to read the Patch Notes, not when you want to play!

@ZOS_MichelleA why is it we have to rely on searching for the information or relying on a member of the community to give the information.

However it took the starting of this discussion to get a response. So I'm happy that my little thread went a little way to getting the reponse required.

Hey there folks,
We just wanted to drop in an confirm that Update 5 is indeed coming to the servers after their respective maintenance periods. There was a discussion related to the delay in patch notes a while back, which explains the process behind the patch notes and why they are posted later on in the maintenance period. If memory serves, the patch notes for Update 5 are the lengthiest to date, so we appreciate your patience while they are formatted!
