It's unlikely to be in the next few days, because KK have stated that the Spy PA will be in the next patch, and as far as we're aware Callash is still trying to figure out exactly what the Community wants from that. Once a decision is made it'll then take time to stick the changes in a patch and set it up for distribution.

Shock.

Seriously though - throw us a bone KK. All we've seen for a month is Lupus flogging his guts out on the TS and Callash being forced to decide who you will piss off next.

In all practical terms more is happening on these forums than in the game.

We know DoY is delayed, we accept that but that doesn't mean the whole game should be on hold till then.

From what we've been told DoY was technically geared up for a release ~2 months ago. If so then it shouldn't still be a work in progress at this point. Either :
1) the "publisher" excuse is a half-truth
2) the Devs have stolen the BYB and moved to Belgium
3) you are working on something really cool and your PR is living up to it's ghastly reputation

Please tell us which it is. I'm still hoping it's 3 but I know that makes me an idiot.

If it's hardware and OS maintainance, one thing it will NOT be is interesting. It's compairable to sitting at your desk watching your HDD defrag (And I don't mean that hypnotic defrag you get from compressed HDDs under W95, either! :) ).

However, while it's possible that it is for a new patch, I actually think it might be that they're trying to figure out database problems which is why Uranus is still down (assuming it is still; I haven't actually checked).

It HAS been a while since the last patch.

Hopefully in the next week or so.

Well, I could ask them to launch a 1kb patch, just so you guys are happy. :p

The patch will come when everything they want in that patch is ready for retail.

good rule to follow is when there is more than 3 test server patches a patch is usually coming to retail soon. Thats just from my own person experience. ;)

OK thanks for the clarification Foresti.
Seen as we got a test patch today... must be on the way soon. And yeah... a 1kb patch would be cool ;)
