      @PlayHearthstone @hsdecktech is the patch release the normal one where mobile player have to wait 2-3hrs after launch, or the new way where it's up for mobile players at the same time?

        @JNytemarePierce @PlayHearthstone The "everyone gets at at the same time" is something we can do when we pre-patch (expansions). I believe these in-between expansion major patches are still expected on the same schedule as usual, with mobile storefronts a few hours after desktop.

          @hsdecktech @PlayHearthstone Are there any plans to change that? It stinks for us mobile players to have to wait longer. US Mobile players would like to be able to jump in and play the game like our desktop friends at the exact same time big patches happen.

            @JNytemarePierce @PlayHearthstone I feel like we've talked about this before, but maybe that was someone else. A lot of work happens in those couple hours to make sure the patch is stable, there are no major issues, and probably some stuff I don't even know about. Unlikely to cut out that important work time.

              @hsdecktech @PlayHearthstone Not asking for that, but if you guys release the patch at 11am pst (1pm my time) to everything. And it's the app stores that take extra 4hrs (as it usually 5pm my time when it comes out). It seems like you can get around that by send in it to the App Store 4 hours sooner. 1/

                @hsdecktech @PlayHearthstone Unless you are saying until 11am when it hits the desktop you guys are still working on it to make sure no major problems etc, and not even ready for release to anything until 11am then no you can't push mobile sooner.. So the only other option is to pre patch which not an option

                  @JNytemarePierce @PlayHearthstone Not quite, but yes, I mean that the team intentionally actively does work in that in-between period. Sometimes there are extra unexpected delays with specific storefronts, but part of it is by design to help with the massive live release.
