blog post will be up soon with details of everything in 1.7

We just want a release date...
Weeks or months?

this is all I got

Coming soon (And I do mean soon) ((Valve Time non applicable)) (((G1 Time non applicable)))

but the second post on the page has info on the contacts story (I dont give a hoot about the story)

noticed, though I've seen people betting on the release dates,
one said this friday
the other said april 7th
... who knows, maybe they have contacts

The patch will probably be released soon, RevoEmag said the patch was about 100mb (which is pretty small for all new stuff)
if they can guess the final size, theyre near finishing it.

I'm guessing they could mess with us on april 1st..

When last we measured it, it was 462 MB, if that helps-Hezeki -GamersFirst Administrators

also its a good chance they will not release a major patch on a Friday since there will be a lot of bugs

blog was updated 1.7 goes into the testing server this week

as of now patch goes live mid april

Barring unforeseen problems, patch 1.7.0 will be hitting the live servers on Wednesday the 18th of April. As such, we are delighted to share probably one of our biggest sets of patch notes ever.
