2018/07/10 - July Release Deployment Information

2018-07-06 - Von CCP Falcon

We're happy to announce that the July release, which kicks off the Dawn of Liberation event, will be deployed on Tuesday, July 10th during a standard length daily downtime.

Downtime for this deployment will begin at the normal time of 11:00 UTC and is not expected to extend beyond the regular time of 11:15 UTC.

The July release brings the start of the Dawn of Liberation event, which runs across the Minmatar Republic's Liberation Day, from July 10th through to July 24th. In addition to this, this release follows on with further ship balancing work, with changes to the Zealot, Retribution and Claw.

Significant performance improvements are also coming to the way the EVE Online client renders missiles and smoke trail grahics, as well as balance improvements to loot in abyssal space and a whole host of user interface, gameplay and audio and graphics fixes.

You can check out the full patch notes for the release here, and take a look at the live event portal for more information on the Dawn of Liberation event.
