Notice of a downtime for a Live publish tomorrow (2/1/11) has been posted....

So, what else could it be? So... Maybe....

In that case, I guess testing it might be a bit late

They said it would be 'a few short weeks' on January 10th when that new dev made a post, so that date would match what they claimed. If they hit that, then good job devs.

Excuse my ignorance, but what from that post indicates that it is 19.5?

Bionic_Flea · 01-31-2011 10:00 PM

They usually move what is on test to live. 19.5 is currently on test. Ergo . . .

I'll betcha that they're just turning off the double XP. Strike Pack to follow around the 8th-10th....

That's my guess anyway.

The_Static_Man · 02-01-2011 05:03 AM

I'm thinking the same thing, but then it wouldn't be a "publish", it would just be regular maintenance. maybe they're stealth-fixing the force field gen bug for masterminds.. oh please i hope they don't =/

JohnP_NA · 02-01-2011 05:37 AM

My updater's downloading a small additional patch and applying now. Certainly looks like 19.5 to Live.

Ignoring anyone is a mistake. You might miss something viral to your cause.

TKKid · 02-01-2011 06:44 AM

Confirmed on Freedom: It's 19.5 pushed to live. I wonder when they'll announce the WST? Should be sometime Tuesday, right?

The_Static_Man · 02-01-2011 06:53 AM

well it is Tuesday.. well actually it's wednesday now for us Aussies :P

Well, it's entirely on Test, and they just announced that they were pushing a Test build to Live. So...

I, and a lot of other people, didn't get that.

Still, so long as you use the updater to load the client, everything should patch up fine.

*and a grant of up to a third, half, or two-thirds of their entire level of XP (based upon the relative length of the content). *

So... if you are already a 50 do you get INF instead ?
(Sorry if someone already answered...thx).

I'm guessing the XP for non-50s is in lieu of the Notice of the Well that 50s get, so that everyone gets a substantial reward for doing the TF.

They should have put the long-defunct information terminals to use for announcing what the Weekly TF is, since they're all over the place. Slightly more thematic...but nice turnaround time.
