Patch de correção de erros em breve

Foi anunciado que será lançado breve um patch de correção de bugs (selecionar alvo com tab, entre outros), atualização de tooltips e outros detalhes. Esse patch precisará de atualização no client do jogo também, então breve veremos algum download de patch por aí.

We do have a fix for this ready, however, it will require a client-side patch to address. We're in the process of building a small patch to fix this and a few other issues which also need client updates. You're likely to see what we call a fast patch in the near future (a la patch 4.1.0A in recent past: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/game/patch-notes/4-1-0a).

Sorry, it's been a while since we've communicated anything about this. Our team has been very busy lately working on a lot of cool things, as well as finalizing plans for BlizzCon, but we're trying to keep our eyes on the forums as much as possible in the process. :)

A blizzard pede desculpas pela demora do patch de correção de bugs e diz que desde o dia do lançamento do 4.2 eles estão corrigindo os bugs, segundo eles muitos já foram corrigidos do lado do servidor, não precisando dessa forma haver atualização do lado do cliente.
Explica também que o processo de documentação e testes é complicado e isso gera alguma demora no lançamento das correções.

The process of documenting, troubleshooting, and testing bug fixes is complicated and constant. We've made many fixes since day one of patch 4.2's release, most of which could be done server-side. All the while we've been working on fixes for bugs that can't be addressed without a client-side patch. But the process for creating a stable new patch build to address any known issues is certainly not as easy as I think you're implying.
Talvez um dos problemas mais esperados por ser corrigido é o de selecionar alvos com o tab. Eles explicam que pode parecer simples, mas é bem complicado e estão trabalhando nisso para poder colocar algo no ar sem que quebre alguma outra coisa; para não pensarmos que eles estão ignorando esse bug.

To be clear, we know it's an annoying issue and it's unfortunate that it went live. But as I spoke in another thread a while back (a portion of which someone quoted earlier in this thread), this is a relatively complicated issue. We haven't just been sitting on it all this time. We want to make sure the fix is good, while also avoiding throwing together a quick patch to address it at the risk of breaking other things.
