Hey, for the past month or so I have seen many different statements regarding changes, updates, etc that are not listed in the PTR... I know some of them are live in the test realm right now, so its not like they are not expected in the patch, they are just not added into the PTR notes...

Can someone at bliz PLEASE release an updated PTR list for us so that we know what is going on instead of having to relink old threads, book mark these old threads, and keep track of it all...

Please, data is important to players.

Thanks

We'll be able to share patch notes soon.

The PTR is a build, much like an actual patch. It represents the data at a moment in time. Since the PTR went out we have fixed other bugs and changed class spells and abilities, some based on feedback coming out of the PTR. If we think we are close to releasing a live build, we won't update the PTR. Otherwise, we will keep refreshing the data.

I am unable to tell you when we plan for the patch to go live for the same reasons we usually don't announce when we think a patch will go live.

I was gonna name my 3s team "we'll beat you next patch" since that seems to sum up feral PvP throughout WoW.

I'm always waiting on the next patch that stays on the PTR for a month and a half with crucial PvP fixes on it that will allow you to beat or open up winning strategies against top teams. It just sits there week after wee as you think "theres no way they can take this long, theres no way" and yet it always does !

This is why I hate the PTR.

Actually I think its the other way around.... this post pretty much confirms it very likely won't be out tomorrow.

If it were coming out tomorrow, they would not be updating the PTR to a new build.

However, from browsing posts on the PTR forum, there was at least one blue post today advising that a bug was fixed and to "check the next PTR build" (in reference to PTR post talking about a fix to nelf shadowmeld).

Since it can be inferred that there 's going to be another PTR build before the patch is released, the patch probably cannot be released tomorrow.

Does this mean there is a chance you might fix the Immolate bug in the next patch? I won't detail what it is because the blue in the bug forum said they were looking into it (telling me they are aware of it), but it's going on 2 months now. Just curious if you know about it as well. :-)

Also would love an update on the locked character issue. I've been itchin' to get on the PTR for weeks, but it seems a lot of people are not able to log on with their copied characters.

you know though a little heads up would be nice. If only a few days or even the night before.
