Hey everyone!

 

We will be taking the servers offline on Thursday, July 13th in order to apply Game Update 5.3a. Note that we are still actively testing this patch to ensure the fixes are working properly. We will let you know if maintenance timing changes.

 

Details:

DATE: 13 July 2017

TIME: 6:00AM - 8:00AM PDT (1300 - 1500 GMT)

VERSION: 5.3a

 

Patch Notes will be available here on Thursday. The currently planned changes are:

  • Operations fixed in Group Finder.
  • Crew Skills once again giving Influence.
  • Adjusting Prototype Missile Silos and Genadiership cooldown/damage.
  • The currently unavailable decos which are showing incorrect sources (such as the Manaan bundle) being removed from the Decorations UI.

 

Thank you for your patience as we maintain Star Wars™: The Old Republic™!

Come on really a patch on a Thursday why couldn't this just wait until Tuesday of next week

I want to PLAY I don't pay my subscription for the servers to be down all the time

and not able to get in when I want to play!

 

This is absolutely unacceptable! Why is EA / Bioware not testing out these

new patches better on Private Test Servers "PTS"

 

I mean come on if this patch had of properly been tested then they definately

would have caught the fact that the operations were not working in Group Finder.

along with some of these othe pretty major flaws which seemed to have been

missed.

 

If you come back and say to me Eric that these patches are being tested then

my response to you will be to fire your lead tester because obviously

they are not doing their job.

 

This is absolutely horrible to roll out a patch like this. Who ever is supposed

to be testing these patches obviously are not..

 

A company the caliber of EA Games knows how to make games and this

isn't their first time doing it. So Why are so many bugs cropping up

and why are you not taking your time to properly test these patches

prior to them being released.

 

This patch that you just rolled out was nothing short of a

"cluster ****". And by the sounds of it the patch you are releasing today

isn't really all that tested yet either.

 

I would rather hold back and get properly tested releases than get this

mess that you just rolled out for 5.3.

 

Stop rushing everything and properly test things!

Don't you know testing patches is old fashioned, the new way is to throw random code into live, and whatever sticks that is the new version.

No it isn't companies that do that go bankrupt very quickly.

 

Has not yet happened to BW, fingers crossed it will happen soon.

As the year has progressed the patch quality has reverted to last few years Ben Irving's level of incompetence.

Looks like Guild Conquest leader boards have been wiped on Ebon Hawk, personal goal still there but nothing on the boards, any chance of fixing it?

 

This often happens with Thursday patches. I believe it's usually fixed when someone earns some more points. Do the Ilum heroic or something and it should restore all the points the guild has earned so far to the board.
