Patch is now Live!

Spoiler

Attention MechWarriors,

Please be advised, MechWarrior Online will be under extended maintenance starting at:
10AM PDT / 1PM EDT / 5PM UTC
This maintenance will last approximately 4 hours.
The reason for this extended maintenance is to begin the invasion of the Clans.
All those who pre-ordered before 10 AM PDT will receive their Collections upon the end of the patch.

Please note, this is your last call to receive social rewards on the Clan Collections sale.

Note: If you purchase or upgrade your Clan Collection AFTER 10AM PDT on June 17th, 2014:
Be advised that your Collection will not immediately appear in your account; After the patch, deliveries will be made daily at approximately 4PM PDT / 7PM EDT / 11PM UTC.

Any word on how long the clan page/package sale will remain active? Will it be till the last clan mech is available for cbills or a lot sooner?

[IraqiWalker]

Yes, I would like to know how much time I have left to upgrade my collection.

Fixed it for me

You really ought to concider moving the maintenance periods so you allow CET players to participate in a smoother way.

[HellJumper]

But we wouldn#t be so pissed if theyy would care about CET Players...

plz the next time start at 8 AM PDT if the patch would take 4 hours... the CET Players would be very pleased... and could play at 8 PM CET

[KuroNyra]

^ As a European, starting the update period one hour earlier would certainly help me, too. I need to get out of bed at 6:30 on Wednesday. Of course, I could also pass on sleeping and attend the lectures dead tired but happy Reminds me of my days in school. Back then I got up at 5 am in order to secretly play Command & Conquer before school.

Niko could i ask you to put UTC+1 since europe is currently in Daylight savings time, since it has confused a few people that i know have read the UTC/GMT. the times is basicly 6pm BST(UTC+1) ,7pm CEST(UTC+2) finishing 10pm BST, 11pm CEST

[Raiyuken]

It's only 1:34am PDT and maintenance is commencing already? I thought it was from 1000 to 1400 PDT... Unless you're changing it to 0100 PDT to 0500 PDT I couldn't be any happier.

[MischiefSC]

Is it can it be 3/3/3/3 time nao pls?

yes, it's being greedy with everything else going in. If the SRM fix is as good as everyone has made it sound I say we need a Brian Buckington riding an SRM cockpit item - I'd buy MC to buy it. Totally serious on that.

However....

3/3/3/3.

[627]

I'm fine with patch times, actually.

Normally they start patching when it's 7pm or 8pm here, depending on daylight saving time or not. And usually that patch is done within 30-60 minutes so you can play the whole evening.

4 hour patch time is a bit heavy and if it takes so long it will be wednesday here when they done. Too bad, but hey, there're worse things.


but one thing, those 10%... would really be interesting if we're close to that number or if the european player base is way bigger. If I look at how many europeans and germans are playing star citizen...

Niko, maybe this is a number that is not business critical and you could give us a rough percentage of european or "foreign" players? Is that possible?


Another thought, maybe you just turn the test servers back online for that patch time

What they haven't said, is that the extended 4 hrs is so they can ninja-patch in Community Warfare v1.0.......
What? I can dream, can't I?

This is exactly what I am hoping for. It would make sense not to announce CW1.0, because if it gets delayed people will be very mad (and rude). But then again, I wouldn't get my hopes up too high.

[Levon K]

You guys have time to play during the week?

[The Amazing Atomic Spaniel]

Late night for me then
