Natch Potes?

MajThorax · August 18

Where are my natch potes? Getting bored at the beach.

I don't know what's worse. No patch notes, or being able to be bored at the beach ;-P

Do the patch notes not arrive after the maintenance or the following day normally?

AcadianPaladin · August 18

Patch notes normally seem to get posted during the maintenance process - usually near the end of the maintenance.

Why is it so hard to post them asap? I assume they do know what is going to be changing before maintenance

Lol a rogue thread

They know what is scheduled to be changing, but they prefer to hold back the patch notes until they know that the patch has gone through as intended. They don't want to find that something got omitted at the last minute for e.g. technical reasons and then the forum got flooded with "you promised "X" would be in this patch, it's in the patch notes" complaints!

The person who writes/posts the patch notes is not the same as the people who come in at 3am to actually implement the patch. Patch notes appear in the morning pretty consistently within the timeframe of someone arriving to work during normal business hours, getting a cup of coffee, maybe attending a morning sync, and pressing poast. Obviously they're not going to do this the night before due to reasons already mentioned.

Do people not know about the Patch Notes Section of the Forums? Patch Notes seem to have been posted at 5 AM this morning, an hour before this post was made.

That was when the post was first created on the forum. It wasn't made visible to us until well after this thread was made.
Gina did it the same way when she compiled the patch notes.

Yeah, we release the patch notes based on our teams when they are going through checks during maintenance. It would be bad form to give you notes and then have something go wrong during maintenance.
