    PVP Season ending March 5th?

    So does this mean that's 5.2 is 3 weeks away now? You know, they should really keep quiet about "target dates". Just give the usual "Soon".

    Feb 26th was a "target date". when they mentioned that, they still hadnt said anything about the pvp season. but people jumped to conclusions as usual. now that we have a serious announcement about the end of the pvp season, we have a more confirmed idea of patch day. however., a major bug could delay the patch, but its very unlikely at this point.

    March 5th is two weeks from today, and lines up with what was said on 02/12 in http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/to...11142?page=1#1

    That statement implies that there was at least 3 weeks remaining before 5.2 as of 02/12. Which puts the earliest release date at March 5.
    I found I enjoyed the game significantly more when I stopped paying attention to all the people on the forums telling me how much I am supposed to hate it
    All this complaining is simply further proof that Blizzard could send each and every player a real-life wish-granting flying unicorn carrying a solid gold plate of chocolate chip cookies wrapped in hundred dollar bills, and someone would whine that Blizzard sucks for not letting them choose oatmeal raisin.

    If the pvp season is ending March 5th, that means that 5.2 will be March 12th doesn't it?

    No, it means that 5.2 will be March 6th.

    Not usually. In almost every case the PvP season ended the same day as a major content patch. Only once has the PvP season ended the week prior (Season 6), but for some reason since that time, everyone seems to think that is how it always worked.

    I was under the impression patches always went live a week after the season ending.

    Since Season 8, every PvP season to date has ended on the same day as a major patch.

    They said they were shooting for the last week of Feb but it would probably not happen.
