This applies to not just JTL but to SWG as well. Sorry I didn't know of a better general discussion boardto put this in.

Question: Do you think the Devs should post the complete patch notes instead of part of it and the community finding out the rest later?

Edit: This is not a flame I am just trying to see if anyone else is confused or upset when the patch notes doesnot completely explain all of the changes. Please keep it clean so this post doesn't get looked on as a flame but rather as a contribution so the higher upsknow howthe communityfeels.

Absolutely.

Hard to troubleshoot and offer feedback on what you don't know.

Yes, That way it lets us as players know what is going in the game.

No. There are some things that we as end users simply don't need to know. For example, let's say the devs fix a rare crash that happens when a player uses a Nightsister Fire DOT Pike on a Cannabilistic Dewback. How many players are going to run out and immediately try to reproduce that crash, and anything similar?

Honestly, I think patch notes are nice to read over and see what changed, but I consider them to be neither necessary, nor required.

They do, it would be under the announcements or if your in the launch pad you can click on the latest date and it will show the patch notes. The problem I am seeing is that the devs aren't just witholding rare crashes but cases that would in fact be problematic for amajority of users and then not saying anything. I think the group nerf is one such case that was not initially released with patch notes butafter the community started asking questions then there was a devresponse. So then the community starts to speculate and eventually the truth comes out but it shouldn't have to be such a hassle for the community to find out what was changed. What is the point of patch notes if it is not going to reflect the update in its entirety?
