Guild Wars 2

I noticed this has never been explained and I feel like it could provide some insight into ANet that many would appreciate. We’ve seen multiple times that things get added in a patch, but aren’t listed in the notes, such as changes to sigils, new UI functions, etc.

I’m assuming these things are intentional, but just aren’t added in the notes for some reason. Is there an internal process for how a note gets added? Is there a specific reason one might not get added?

Hoping for a dev response on this because I think it would be really great for the community come Heart of Thorns, since I’m guessing we’re going to have quite a few patches after launch

Usually, anything left out of Patch Notes shows up on the ‘Game Notes’ page in the Wiki.

From previous Dev posts, it seems, sometimes, the note in question is overlooked, didn’t make it in time, forgotten, etc.

Good luck.

They have admitted to missing notes by accident on occasion. They’ve also said they won’t talk about exploits, so often times changes to cover one are not directly mentioned unless it’s a change that will be easily noticed, and even then they won’t say why they did it.
