[2019] An Update on this weeks Update - 4.2

Ello folks -

Not wanting to sound too ridiculous on this one, but I wanted to hop in on the back of yesterdays post with an update on the 4.2 Update.

It will release this Thursday.

The update will require both Client and Server Updates, meaning that we're expecting some downtime during our usual update window. This is all slightly later that we intended, sorry for the delay on this.

We'll then be back with a second, and much smaller, update next week that has the sole purpose of enabling Marita. As soon as this second update has gone live, we'll put live a Marita focused playlist that rotates between Conquest, and Breakthrough (two rounds, one as Attacker, and one as Defender).

Tomorrow I'll be back with the full Update Notes for 4.2 and talk with you some more about what's new, changed, and coming for our 4.4 Update. On Monday next week, I'll then have an update that will confirm when to expect this second, much smaller, update, as well as confirmation on the release of the two New Elites.

In unrelated news, we'll also be extending Rush through to the start of the Marita playlist. As soon as /u/kenturrac is back off his Holidays I'll set up a dedicated thread for feedback on this. With the exception of oustanding issues (like spawning inside the 'MCOM'), the consensus is very much we've moved in the right direction with the recent changes to Rush. This is encouraging for us all, and will help us to better focus what's next for the mode.

Cheers - Freeman // PartWelsh

P.S. It's ridiculously hot this week. Please stay hydrated!

P.P.S. I've used the word 'Update' 14 times in this post. I hope never to beat this record.
