This update is downloading in the background....."for the next patch"

Not sure what to say but if you look closely at you battlenet launcher you may notice this thing lagging your terrible internet service(me). It says it is About 15Gigs. I'm going to speculate this is the prepatch and one can only assume that it will drop next week?

"An update will be downloaded in advance so that it is ready for patch day" - next to subscription active/expired.

Won’t be next week, 29th is earliest, we need a pvp season end notice first which usually is 10-14 days before the prepatch hits.

if you look at season 2 of bfa they gave a 5 day notice and season 3 they gave 8 days. so this Tuesday isnt impossible just highly unlikely general consensus is 29th
