I find it a tad annoying we only get 60 seconds notice of a server going offline.
Was right in the middle of one of the best matches of my life and now I won't get any of the points or cbills from it.

If we had 5 min we could have rushed the other team in Conquest instead of worrying about flags that would have taken longer.

I had 5min warning in my match.

Funny, I received 24 hours notice............... I guess not everyone got the memo.

I didn't catch their "memo", but not everyone is going to set an alarm on their iPhone when the MWO servers go offline.
A 5 min in-game warning would be nice. I only got 1.

[Gleitfrosch]

there was a 10 min warning, maybe you only get it if you are in a match?

Makes sense, because I was waiting for about 8 minutes trying to find a game.

Why do they let games start with less than 15 minutes before servers are taken down?

[Duncan Jr Fischer]

Funny thing you even get 60 seconds notice. Last time the servers went off on me (several weeks ago), there was no notice whatsoever...

It is to be blamed on a guy named "Murphy". His laws state, "You will only ever get shut down in 1 minute 8 minutes into the "best 10 minute game eva in your life", despite it being your 1.5 billionth game. Just blame "Murphy" dawg. LOL
