When can we expect Patch Notes? Hype!

Heavensward (Preliminary) Patch Note Reading
Yoshida and Foxclon will be reading over the preliminary patch notes for Heavensward!

Broadcast start time:
Wednesday, June 17, 2015 at 2:00 a.m. (GMT)
* Presented in Japanese only.

Based on this, and on history, I was wondering when can we realistically expect the patch notes, because I won't be up and awake at 2am Wednesday morning? Do the patch notes usually come out at the same time as the live reading or is it likely to be earlier? If so, when? Today? Early tomorrow? Any speculation or informed guesses? :cool:

Probably (a little while) after the servers go down for maintenance. I wouldn't expect it any sooner, preliminary reading or not.
They might post a "preliminary patch notes" thingy like they did with ... whichever version not long ago though.

Last time they did live reading, or maybe the first time they did it, the patch notes came out like 10-20 minutes before the broadcast started so odds are that will happen. Patch note reading just seems to be a fun little interactive thing for yoshi and foxclon to do to interact with the community and pump up the hype of the upcoming expansion/patch.

Hopefully, we will get the preliminary patch notes sometime before the reading tomorrow. I wouldn't expect the full thing until the servers are down though.

Well, in those cases it was because there were people who had a fluent grasp of Japanese watching and posted their translations on the forums soon after. It was often followed by moderator clarifications to help ease the hysteria that invariably followed.
