Devs, PROOFREAD YOUR PATCH NOTES

I remember the patch notes had a screwed up formatting with Sojourn (Showing markdown tags)

Then we have the Mei patch notes that says from 65 > 70 when in June, it said 55 to 70. This caused a lot of confusion and my friend loves playing Mei and we didn’t know what the situation was until a dev corrected it on twitter.

This is the BASIC of most BASIC stuff.

What was the correction? I can’t find it.

EDIT: Apperently the dev tweet said that the original patch notes were wrong, it was 65 and NOW its 70, but KarQ tested it and both versions before and after were 70. The developer tweet has since been deleted, so thinking they doubled down on correcting and in fact realized they were wrong lol.

Do you seriously think a company that does not care about making their game fun and worthwhile will take time to proof read their patch notes that they themselves obviously don’t even care about anymore?

:rofl:

see, this is actually a 1984 reference

So, uh, where do we stand now? Did Mei recieve a DPS increase this patch or not?

You know, deleting the tweet takes this from “honest human mistake” to “faceless company hiding incompetence”.

They really need a community manager completely customer facing for this.

Just one likable human being would be enough.

It’s a shame Andy B stopped talking

According to KarQ’s in game testing, she did not.

Cool, I just wanted to be sure that the devs claimed to have increased Mei’s damage, only for them to do nothing of the sort. That way I can let out a heaty “lol” without worry. Thank you.

Proofread patch notes? Who do you think you are, the monopoly guy?? Why are you entitled to FREE patch notes?! Blizzard is a business and they have to make money! How do patch notes make them money, are you crazy? You want proper patch notes, then you gotta pay for them: $4.99 for patch notes, $9.99 extra for proofreading, and 24.99 for the actual patch! Stop asking for things to be given to you for free!
