Could we get some official disclosure on this patch?

The disappearance of the timer on the event page, is this intentional or a bug? If it's a bug, can we expect it fixed sometime soon? I can't see how less information is better, so I'm hoping this is a bug.

    Exactly. The timer in pvp disappear. It can't be that we don't know how many time left till end.

    I wouldn't think its intentional as there is no benefit to it & completely mucks up shield strategy - assuming its a bug.

    Myself & 1 other are experiencing the same in our alliance - the rest are supressing the update

    Can you still play without updating? I thought all updates were forced?

    It's still visible in the Event Rules tab.

    Checked into it and got word from the dev team that it's a known issue and a fix is planned for R72. If I hear more I'll be sure and update.

    *Update: Helpful advice from forum user "ngoni":

    You can still find "Time Left" by tapping the "Event Rewards" icon, then tapping "Event Rules."

    If you could also let them know, it's only for the PVP events aka the featured character tournaments and the simulator. The PVE events are displaying just fine as well as the season timer. Seems like only a PVP problem.

    Can you confirm the event time left in rules is the same as the slice you selected? I could have swore my was ending sooner than is display, perhaps the event rules is the end of the last slice?

    FYI, Be careful I just got burned by this. Still told me I had 12 hours left but that didn't help as the slice ended about 10 minutes ago. Hadn't done my final big push so missed out on the top ten.

    Seems the timer he mentioned was just showing the overall event timer.

    And worse , not sure if it happens to everyone but on my case, the game wont allow me to play unless i do the update. so even though i already know about the issues, i didn't have any choice but to update to this broken update
