    EU realms incompatible after 7.3.5 update

    basically this:

    https://eu.battle.net/forums/en/wow/...2041171?page=2

    So EU cannot play untill tomorrow? Well that sucks. If you havent done so yet: Do not update to 7.3.5!

    Mistakes happen. I don't think this has happened before in EU has it?

    Support rep told me to close the app, kill the agent task then try a scan and repair. Will report back when it's done.

    GM also says they are on it and will have it reverted soon. So I imagine you will be able to play in about the next hour or two.

    It is sorted now.

    Yeah I'm running scan & repair now as well. Hope it helps.

    My launcher says 7.3.2 still. dont know how you guys got the update, but I didnt, and I am EU player aswell...

    Maybe they stopped the update, when they found out, that it doesnt work?

    My client patched to 7.3.5 earlier, and just now repatched to 7.3.2, making it work again.

    Mine just started updating out of nowhere 5mins ago,which would be around 5:40pm GMT+, patch seems to be around 3GB? Only caught it half way at ~1.6GB left, oh well had nothing left to farm either way.

    And apparently if you close Bnet and relaunch it downloads 7.3.2 again, ah blizzard <3

    Possibly, but I just got it pushed to my launcher and now I cannot login, so nothing has been fixed really, there is no way to downgrade the launcher/client.

    Edit: Blizzard: So this should be resolved, you may need to close the game and app again and restart it but after a small update you should be back on 7.3.2 and able to connect.

    Close the launcher, start task manager and close Blizzard update manager (if it is running) and then restart the launcher it should then re-download the old patch.

    Maybe they are sending out the updates in waves, I still havent been upgraded, or maybe its something to do with time zones.

    You shouldn't have been able to update to 7.3.5 anyways. EU is getting the patch tomorrow

    No, we can't play until tomorrow I believe. It is common for EU to have to wait another half a day.

    Tonight I played just fine for three solid hours until now, both on EU Silvermoon and EU Draenor. Only unusual thing I noticed was a slight queue at login, but both these realms are high pop, though. EU Maintenance is scheduled until tomorrow at 11AM, for now.

    I meant playing the patch, it doesn't deploy until later.
