The reason is that both clients and servers use same content system. if servers would have update first, then there would be a lot of clients that are unable to connect or find a server and we would have servers without players. These days the updates (even if they are big) download rather _fast_ for what it used to be. I have no complaints on that.

Out of curiosity, does anyone know of any reason why server updates couldn't be made available some hours before the clients are instructed to update? Such a practice would at least give the operators a chance to take care of the update before the horde comes clamoring and complaining.
