Can't update from 1.6.1 to 1.6.2 on PTS

david.haypreub18_ESO · February 2015

I started trying the PTS a week or two ago, and by selecting the gear icon in the launcher and enabling the test environment, I got the game to patch to 1.6 and then 1.6.1 as well. Now, however, when I load the launcher and get to the screen where you input your password, the bottom of the screen reads 1.6.1 (and some other numbers follow too). I closed the launcher and rebooted my computer and tried again, but it would not apparently download 1.6.2, no matter what I tried. I even went back and first disabled the test environment, then reenabled it... nothing. Is there something I'm doing wrong?

Thanks

Version number still shows 1.6.1, even if the patch applied correctly. If you can login, you are on the right version

Hey there!

With the PTS server selected, choose Game Options just above the launcher and select Check for Updates. From there, the update will be detected and begin downloading.

If that doesn't work, let us know what happens!

I checked the game options, check for updates. There was a pause for a second or two as it seemed the launcher was checking, and then the blue 'Play' option popped up again in the lower right of the launcher screen. I launched the game, and again, it was eso.rc.1.6.1.(more numbers after that).

I think you are right Glierhuin... when I finally did get on to the PTS, my (NA) characters were now there and the build was clearly 1.6.2 (puncturing strikes only did 140% damage, as per 1.6.2, rather than 170%, for example). So I think I am good. Thanks for the help!
