Patch Notes

We are targeting Wednesday, August 25th for the UO Live Access Patch. In order to give us the best chance for a smooth patch, we will be proceeding with it in the following manner:

• After the U.S. Shards finish their daily maintenance, we will keep those shards down.
• At approximately 7am CST we will start manually bringing down all of the other shards.
• We expect all of the shards to be down by approximately 10am CST. After that, the patcher will be accessible even while the shards are not. If you wish to download the patch at this time, you will be able to do so. However, you will not be able to connect to any of the shards.
• The Great Lakes Shard will be initialized for a quick round of Internal-Only testing.
• After we are satisfied with the results, we will open Great Lakes to the public and announce the opening on Shard Issues.
• We expect Great Lakes to open by approximately 2pm CST.
• While Great Lakes is running, we will be watching it very carefully for any issues.
• Once we feel confident there are no known issues regarding the Great Lakes Shard, we will convert and open the remaining shards. The shards will reopen sequentially until all shards have returned to service. We will keep you updated as the process continues.
