Due to a number of factors, including issues with Singularity, some missing critical fixes and insufficient testing, the patch scheduled for deployment on Tuesday, 23 August has been pushed back a week to Tuesday, 30 August.
Patch Notes will be posted this afternoon and will be updated throughout the week with more fixes and changes.
We apologize for the deployment delay, but we feel it is better to have a stable patch than to rush a patch to the server with the potential of introducing more issues and bugs.

Patch Notes are now available. They will be updated over the coming week as additions and fixes are made. These changes will be in the proper sections in italics. This is not a complete list by any means.
Some items in the list may be hotfixed before the deployment. Hotfixed items will be notated in the same fashion as additions.

There is a very high possibility that the option to delete corp mail will make it in this patch, as well as a fix for the client-side lag created by mail. They are high priority items that are being worked on by the Devs.

Drones, sentry guns and NPCs will now actively target attackers of similar entities. For example, drones and NPCs will engage a target that is attacking their owning entity or 'gang members', sentry guns will engage targets attacking other guns or items within their protection, etc.
Okay...just what does this mean? Don't NPCs do this already? Or is this more applicable to player-drones and player SGs? Does this mean 1 ship tanking and 1 ship shooting up NPCs is less viable?
Plainly put, if a player is attacking 1 of 3 sentry guns in a complex, targeting 1 drone out of a swarm of 5, a drone carrying ship or 1 ship in a convoy of 3, the other members of the group will attack the player. All the sentry guns will defend the attacked gun, all the drones will defend the other drones in the swarm or the carrier, or the other ships in the convoy will defend the attacked ship.
I hope that helps clear things up.

Please tell whoever is updating it this, because they arent using the italics. its very annoying reading through the entire thing again and again to see if theres somethin new.
There are no italics in the patch notes yet because there have been no new additions to the patch notes over the weekend. I will post to this thread, in addition to updating the notes, when there is an update.

More changes and updates have been added to the Patch Notes. They include:
-Providence cargo bonus increase by skill level works properly.
-Minmatar Service Outpost factories are open for business.
-The Gith X-Type Ballistic Deflection Field has been renamed to Gist X-Type Ballistic Deflection Field.
-The length of the Market tutorial was reduced and the Assets tutorial was modified.
-Amarr Navy Slicer gave a 5% increase in cap usage and 10% increase in rof per level, it should be a decrease of 10% cap usage and increase of 5% damage per level. This has been fixed and the description has been updated.
-Minor typos to the Patch Note text have been fixed and clarifications made.
