Actually, while I usually disregard what the OP is saying, he does have a point.

But for a long time, I've railed against, PGI's apparent lack of ability to provide timely or helpful information. Soo.... preaching to the choir.

3 things you need to keep in mind.
Large (relatively speaking)Patch Days are 1st and 3rd Tuesday of the month. Occasionally, we will be blessed with a 3rd patch if there are 5 Tuesdays in a month (But not always, there were a few times that they didn't give us a 5th Tuesday Patch), and will have a subsequent patch the following Tuesday as it will always be the 1st Tuesday of the month.

Every Friday, there is a small patch to update the weekend sale, and again on the following Tuesday morning to remove it.

All patch times occur at 10 AM Pacific Time (This is where PGI is located). This may interfere with those outside the Americas, but a patch will ALWAYS inconvenience someone, somewhere, but it's unrealistic to expect the team to come in a 3 AM to run the patch, so it isn't Prime Time in Europe. For me, I want the team to be well rested and full of whatever caffeine supplement they choose to imbibe, so as to not completely screw the pooch on the patch.

information is strength. say i wanted to buy a seismic module the day before patch...
also it would be wiser for PGI, because then they could fix stuff the community wont like before they actually introduce it.

So you mean this information ?

and No they fix stuff that THEY don't like not something community(or few players at least) cries about

yes my brain is too full of other information and for some reason i can never remember that. would be easier to have a banner at the main page or the client "PATCH DAY TOMORROW."


or you could just write yourself a note and sticky it to the side of your computer... of course if you are of the "new generation" and don't know what a stickynote is I guess you could set up an APP that would send you a reminder that it's PATCH DAY.

I think/know that most of the stuff they will add/change to near future patches can be found from http://mwomercs.com/...-command-chair/ . /ATD or Syllogys super awesome http://mwomercs.com/...d-november-5th/
and feel free to continue this thread if you want, but not sure is there is any gain for you or to anyone to do that...
