Data has been included in this week's patch in order to lighten the load for the upcoming expansion



This was posted in patch notes - BUT my patch took under 1 second to load so how is this going to lighten the load ?

    Genie datas have been included bit by bit for weeks now. I recall seeing Genie in Chinese weeks back.

    I heard the patch is so small. So idk.

    I wanted to download the manual patch for this new version, but the link is wrong. If you click it, you download patch version 1-52. Could a GM please fix this?

    Sorry for the mix up. We are working on it now. Could you try the "Mirror" link to the right of it in the meantime?

    EDIT: It's fixed now!

    Agreed; the manual patch is all of 19k. Obviously it can't contain data to lighten the load. Looks like someone included this sentence in the wrong week's patch notes.

    No genies aren't released just yet, but hopefully very soon.

    Most of the time when a patch is really small it tends to be server side changes and what you download is telling your client side about it basically. There are other reasons but from my experience that's the most common reason.
