Hi all,

Since this thread refers to the patch issue that occurred today, we're going to close this thread and ask that the community continue the discussion in the existing thread on this topic:

Patch Issue Today - Information

Hey everyone, sorry for the brief confusion. Here’s what happened and how it affects you.

 

Some patch-related changes were mistakenly deployed early. Luckily, these changes only affected players for a very brief (less than 15-minute) window. We corrected this unintentional change very quickly.

 

Here’s how it affects you:

 

If you started or completed the patch download, you have two options:

• If you want to continue playing today, you will need to restart your client and re-download the client
  
• If you want to wait until tomorrow and play when 1.2 is deployed to the servers, you can close your client and restart it tomorrow after the patch is deployed (approximately 8AM CDT).

 

We apologize for the confusion, but only a very small number of players were affected by this unintentional change. Thank you for your understanding.

Hope that helps, and we appreciate your understanding!
