• The launcher for the game has had a minor update to fix a few defects.
• The help article which incorrectly stated that Preferred players would have a maximum of 14 character slots per server once Game Update 4.0 goes live has been corrected to 16 character slots.
• The issue that led to the planned disabling of Planetary Conquests once Game Update 4.0 goes live will be fixed with the deployment of Game Update 4.0, which means that they will continue uninterrupted.
