6.13 patch? If the russians have already played 5.5, what's the use
of us testing it if the fixes for that patch are already done?MrVic: 6.1.3. From what I know is part of the internal testing. Basicaly
it's a small part of .6/.7. This sort of patching is to watch the
internal client go boom as they piece together the patch for us.
While we were delayed on 5.5 for a few reasons, the work on .6 has
not really been put on hold it's still going on. So the info about
the devs working on 6.1.3 is actually good news, since it's one
piece of the puzzle for the big patch that hopefully does not crash
the server ect. Over all were not in bad shape considering the next
2-3 patches massive amount of content. I think the big trick is
shuffling multiple client patches in a day. Down the road things
improve. Really I am surprised they gave out that info as most
would not give any reason.
Testing 5.5 is as I talked about pages ago. Is some tank tweaks from bugs and 2 maps the tweaks are not really large content or game breaking so testing those is kind of mute. The 2 maps are in good shape, and map testing is a never ending process. Most of it is done through long term data collection. So EU testing for months prior to RU is really a waste. 5.5 is not really a "test this it needs it" it was an attempt by the devs to pull a few things out and give us some new maps to hold us over until .6 was made stable. It was a nice gesture that we have thrown in their face. It sucks to wait but we'll have them soon enough.
For me if a delay on 5.5 meant we see .6 faster then it's worth it in spades. From what I know I suspect that might have been some of the reasons
