I know many of you are patiently waiting the CU/R/B.
Unfortunately I don't really have any info I can share with you yet. I will tell you that the CU/R/B forum boards are up and we've been discussing issues there from what we've seen of the docs so far.
The test server isn't up yet. Because of issues that were brought up on the forums, they are making some revisions.
I expect the sandbox server to most likely be up by the end of this month. That is just my personal gut feeling. It isn't based on anything a Dev has said. But I'm expecting it in the next month.
From there I have no idea how long until it hits TC or live. It will depend greatly on how the Alpha testing goes and any issues or problems we find and how long it takes for them to get resolved.
I'll share info as soon as I can and when I have it. For now just keep having fun.

Most of you are probably more eager. For myself and the testers it's going to be a lot of work, debating, number crunching, etc. We are going to do everything we can to make sure it is done right.
Personally I'm looking forward to when it is over and everyone can see it and play. Just as I'm fairly certain most of the rest of you are.
Thanx for all your patience so far.

Nice info Waste, although I think you're a little generous with your estimation
Don't think much is gonna happen this month, with holidays and stuff ...

Yeah, I agree.
I have patience for the whole Combat Upgrade because honestly, it's not something that can be done overnight. If this thing is supposed to change the face of the game, then it's going to take time to map everything out. It sounds easy in theory, "fixing professions" and all, but to be honest, I don't know if I'd really want that task...lol. My hope is that all of our "patience" will pay off, and we will get a new combat system that is fully functional, rather than the half-functional one we have now. If sweeping change is made, and professions are balanced accordingly, I'll say the wait was well worth it.

Thanks for sharing as much as you can, making clear what is just speculation on your part, and being honest when you just don't know.
