Any clue or guesses as to when issue 19.5 will be comming out? I'm bored with the current issue and would like to finish up my alpha slot....

Again, not asking for release date...just a guess as to when or an estimate.

Long enough for all hardcore solo oriented players to rage quit.

Better answer, it's on the test server right now, it doesn't seem that difficult of a feature to test, so I'd guess two weeks.

Why would a guess from another customer be of any more relevance than yours?

If there are customers who have inside knowledge they absolutely won't post any specifics.
No doubt releasing any relevant information on upcoming content would result in their insider status being revoked.

Nobody knows. I'm guess two weeks or so.

Issue 19.5 went to open beta last week on the Test server.
There are no longer any customers who have any "inside knowledge" on this.

As far a guesstimating when Issue 19.5 will go live knowing the history of this game should serve us pretty well:

First of all the Devs have already told us they are targeting "early February" for the release of Issue 19.5. For the sake of scope we can assume that'll be anywhere from February 1st to the 15th. We also know that the majority of new Issue releases have happened on Tuesdays. Not all of them, but most of them at any rate. This further narrows down when it'll likely launch to either February 1st, 8th or 15th. Finally we now know the Spring Event is starting on February 10th and historically they have never launched a new Issue during an event. This would seem to eliminate the 15th as a possibility. Thus we are left with either the 1st or the 8th. There was an Issue a few years ago (forget exactly which one) that went live after less than a week after it went to open beta. Based on that the 1st is still possible.

After considering all this evidence I would currently rate February 1st about a 30% chance of being the day and the 8th about a 70% chance. Enjoy.

This could be Issue 19.5, or they could just be turning off double XP.
They normally wouldn't call turning off double XP a "publish", though. They're patching something, but it could be a major bug fix or something.

And did anyone else notice that they had downtime yesterday (as normal after events, they need to turn off the special stuff), but the double XP was still there today?

I had good inf. running on the 8th, but that's the funny thing about being wrong and it hitting tomorrow...I still win.

Some people don't pay attention to this kind of stuff, but know that there are players out there who pounce on every scrap of information.
