Well, if the patch isn't yet ready then they will have today to submit it potentially. Unless they work tomorrow.

I wasn't having a go at you, just wondered. It will be quite a cluster if it doesn't release on the 26th I could imagine.

Sony likes to release patches on a Wednesday I've noticed.

BAs original twitter post does not mention platform. I suspect it will release on Steam on the 26th and probably roll out on PS4 the following week. All you have to do is go back through the most recent patch thread. How short some people's memories are...

Those on PS4/XBOX getting excited for Thursday should bare this in mind.

I think we should wait and even if its cuple a days late, its fine. Afterall they are clearly working on a patch.
To be fair they did say they would release more info on the patch which never came our way..

Apart from weeks worth of ‘unofficial’ information being released by the beta testers..

Am not looking for a argument but
a) post clearly suggested the info is going to come from BA.

B) hardly much info came from beta testers over last 3 weeks. Which is fine . They dont have to post anything.

Anyhow its all good. Just pointing out the obvious

Well if you’re going to ignore the fact that BA allowed beta testers to publically share feedback as part of the process, there isn’t much of an argument to be had. Especially when there isn’t much information to be shared outside of what bets testers have already shared.

There isn’t really a difference between BA saying “we’re working on XYZ” and beta testers saying “they’re working on XYZ”

Correct me if am wrong. But isn't it fair to assume BA knows what will be in the patch then beta team. Like many testers said before, there is no guarantee of some of the things in the beta biuld making it to actual patch.

Anyhow its all good, no need for us to get in to this too much. Lets hope for the best and whatever comes out of the patch will be better then nothing, we have BA and you the beta guys to thank for that. Cheers

I assumed the 'more information' would be in the guise of patch notes and possible next steps AFTER the patch is released.

Like Snowy says, there's not much else to say until that point. They are hardly going to say "We plan on fixing XYZ a month out" and then not end up fixing Y or Z, because that would be a disaster for them.

Expect an extensive amount of "more information" on Thursday, along with the patch on at least 1 platform (probably at least PC) with other platforms as and when they get certified (see timings for previous Ashes patch).

No, given they would eventually have to test a ‘final’ patch, that would not be a fair assumption at all

I am going to go out on a limb in a completely "unofficial" capacity and say without a doubt all platforms on the 26th. You read it here first. ;)

And that's how the negative vibes always start. People around here start off by saying I assume... I think... or I guess... and people jump on the bandwagon.
