Hiya!
We try to avoid the top of the hour to avoid arena payouts and push Game Updates a little bit after the hour. While we can't please everyone, we do give notice here on the forums of when a Game Update is coming via the Game Update Status post to allow Players to plan accordingly.

Respectfully,
That post was at 5:30pm; speaking for my restart, it was at 5:50pm. I highly doubt many players are on the forums every 20 minutes, and if so, can get to wifi in that 20 minutes.
An in game message would be nice, even if it said to check the forums. I didn't get the in game message until after the client restart

While I understand how that would seem helpful, that would require a secondary client update to implement that pop up notification and another to push the actual Game Update.

Why not add in a server side announcement that’s part of the game permanently as part of QOL, there is no reason it shouldn’t be able to be done and actually help with a relevant issue. Especially considering updates always vary from time to time and never consistently drop at the same time
