I might sound dumb now, but does anybody know when the next merc or major update will be released?
From what i’ve read in the forums we will know when they announce it, but has anyone found something like a release pattern?
Do you expect it this month/next month/when?
Some assumptions when it will happen?
After Jan 24th, I think.
whenever after DBN’s schedule ends.
No patches until that I would expect.
The normal pattern was every 2 weeks. One fine tuning update for bugfixes and one content patch per month. The cycle was broken a bit due to the holidays. Unsure what the current status is, but the best bet might be to check out the dev streams.
@RazielWarmonic Any word on if this cycle is still the case or when abouts the next patch might be?
Ardez is correct here in regard to past updates.
There may be some change to the future of how we patch though. However I cannot confirm anything at the moment. All I can say for sure, is that mercs will be released less frequently through this part of Open Beta. This was said in this article by Exedore.

Well there’s only two mercs left (unless Javelin is ever confirmed) so I don’t think that’ll be a big deal.
SD has confirmed on multiple streams and posts that more mercs will be released after the known mercs are released.
Since the Dickens/Trinket event ends on 13th, they’re could be an update (I hope). With so many people not receiving their first Trinket I’m sure they’de want to fix it soon, it’s already been a while since last update and lot of people are crying out including me. I WANT MY TRINKET! Seriously I’m pretty pissed off!! :#
Actually I would like to know if there is going to be any sale …let’s say for trading up ^^ Just like it was during the meltdown event. Is there anything similar planned for the dickens closure event?
I read on reddit that there will be no new mercs in January and they are also not workin on trading and2 new maps are in the works.
