When Can We Expect Patch 9.2 to Hit Public Test Servers?

Recommended Posts

62094-shadowlands-patch-92-eternitys-end

The second encrypted 9.2 build has arrived on WoW Vendor, but when can we expect the update to hit test servers?

Blizzard recently pushed the second encrypted Patch 9.2 Build 41089 to WoW Vendor. As you can see below, the build number went from 40958 to 41089.

John Hight said in the Buffed.de interview they "want to make sure the patch is ready to go out and content is playable for the most part without any roadblocks". Furthermore, he added that they "try to give players notice a week or two ahead of time, especially if it happens around a holiday time period".

Next week is Thanksgiving week and Blizzard employees received an entire week off in the wake of recent news, which makes it unlikely for the Patch 9.2 update to hit Public Test Realms.

Due to the one-week notice before the deployment mentioned by John Hight and the fact that it's already Thursday, Eternity's End will most likely be released on the PTRs during the week of November 30.

Stop this garbage, blizz. Be a company that makes games again. I'm so sick of this.

What a bad take. It may surprise you to know that employees tend to be happier and more productive when taking breaks, and the quality of content tends to go up. Honestly, how cold-hearted do you have to be to complain that employees are getting Thanksgiving off?

Yeah, such garbage.  It's almost like the people who make the game are human beings who value being able to spend time with their loved ones on holidays.

That's a misrepresentation of what I was saying. I'm unhappy with Blizz constantly only churning out bad news these days instead of games. I'm not thrilled that they're suddenly shutting the team down for a week because some unhappy former employee decided to go make a foreign news article the other day. They were already getting thanksgiving off, every major company like blizz does, that has nothing to do with anything. But some people always have to immediately cast someone with an opposing viewpoint as evil, huh?

I wouldn't cast _anyone_ with an opposing viewpoint as evil, but anyone condensing the situation down to

is probably evil, yeah. I mean, if you're going to assume that I am casting you as evil, you're probably used to being cast as evil. Maybe you should consider why that is? I assure you, it's not because you have an "opposing viewpoint".

Well I bet you're just a lovely person. I'm sure you love to tell people how tolerant you are.

i mean, you're framing a situation involving very real instances of discrimination and executive neglect as an "unhappy former employee" making a "foreign news article"

btw it's worth mentioning this storm only really kicked off because the WSJ (not an unhappy former employee) released a comprehensive report (not a foreign news article) detailing bobby kotick and activision's shitty behavior.

 

you should probably look this up before pouting that the wellbeing of people takes precedence over the game

      The limited time Remix event just got a lot less deadly, as Blizzard fix another bug. Certain high level boss abilities were doing double damage, but a hotfix has cleared that all up! 
      Remix (Source)
      With a hotfix that we applied a few minutes ago, we’ve fixed a bug that was causing some high-level boss abilities to unintentionally do double damage to players.
      For players who have been inside an instance since before the hotfix went out, there will be no change until you leave and start a new instance.
      Thank you for your reports and feedback!

      Players without the Dragonflight expansion have been having trouble after reaching level 60in the MoP Remix event. Their characters would become locked, as levels 60 and up were part of the Dragonflight expansion, so there was quite a bit of confusion since the event wasn't supposed to require the latest expansion. 
      Luckily Blizzard have now clarified that this was a bug, and have since resolved it!

      We believe that this issue has been fixed with an update that we deployed with realm restarts earlier this morning.
