[2019] Game Update: Fixes & Double XP Weekend: Extended

There are improvements to make, in particular in the area of the patch notes and we're having talks around this. There are loads of people involved and deadlines can be quite tight.

While I agree that we shouldn't be promoting patches as game updates (I hope we're not, as we shouldn't), I disagree that we should be taking patch notes off of the front page. Patches can be game-changing for players, particularly if they produce a small benefit to something you do every day. I've lost count of the number of threads in the past that have called out a patch note as being 'the real MVP update'.

For me, I think the bigger issue behind all of this is the lack of game updates over the past few months (we're getting three biggies next week, at least), not that patch notes are over-promoted. In my view, I would love to be shouting about killer patch notes more than we do now.

They are still in the pipe line, once we know the release date we'll let you all know.

I've just fired this!

I've dropped it now. We often drop it on Monday's when we're back in the office.

I covered why it wasn’t fine on the most recent livestream. It’s worth looking there
