Huh? Did we just completely skip 3.06?

It's weird we are hopping to 3.07 already.

Except by that logic, where's 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, and 3.4? Basically they move in by fractions going to half then 3 quarters, unless there's 5 patches in between. 3.75 would be more apt in describing the patch number. Unfortunately you can't completely use Xeno's Paradox to number everything.

No. 3.07 comes before 3.1 as x.07 is 7 hundredths whereas x.1 is 10 hundredths. It can also be written as 3.10,which may confuse you less.

As for why we went 3.05 to 3.07 - odd numbers are used for minor patches with important additions. Even numbers are used for the major patches, eg 3.0, 3.1 etc.

Seems like the question went over the previous poster's heads. OP, they probably have both 3.06 and 3.07 planned out and only had noteworthy things to say about 3.07 in the Live Letter.

Or 3.06 was an internal build that will be included in 3.07.
That happens all the time.

The big problem is that they're calling it .07.

By usual convention it should be 3.0.7 - which means Expansion level 3, Major patch level 0, Minor patch level (think tweaks and bugfixes) 7. This would allow a long series of Minor patches in one Major patch, even up to the counter-intuitive 3.0.10.

This topic...

I don't even.......

after 2.55 we get 3.0 :/

I think it's up to SE to make the version number of the patch.

do you think we got every single x.x1 as a patch?

So what you're saying is we are really in 3. Six hundered ten thousandths right now on our way to 3. Seven thousand hundred thousandths?

Nothing to add...just want to keep this post going because the replies have mostly been hilarious or from people who dont understand how version numbering works.

As you were..

Guys, version numbers are not the same thing as real numbers. The "." used in version numbers is strictly for separation purposes. It just so happens that we use "." in real numbers as well to indicate fractions.

It's better to think of this patch as 3.0.7

The reason the second dot is usually omitted is because minor patches don't impact a game as much as major patches or expansions.

Forget that...give me a date for 3.1 :D
