Jesus... can't they use a cluster of servers and take down just 1 server at a time?!?!

Well after ten minutes of refreshing, I'm going to go play lord of the rings online for thirty minutes. Maybe smoking some old toby and kicking a hobbit will make me feel better until I can get back into a mech!

[Greenplants]

Sorry, did i get something wrong, or should the server be online again now?!
(dont get why in every server, they dont know howlong they need -.-)

I'm not elitist at all, I'm just annoyed that game devs fairly consistently dump the maintenance time in...
EU TIME!

Put it in US prime time for a change, mix it up, the EU is a very large demographic as well.

I'm really inclined to - actually, **** it. Stop being an elitist **** thinking the US is the victim of my comment. The US has always been thought of as the major demographic, and sometimes that's unfair. I'm not saying "always screw over the americans", I'm just saying "try not to be like SOE and always screw over the europeans". You just had to reply with an insult, though, didn't you?

I don't think they are catering to anyone. I think it is more that PGI does maintenance during the normal 9-5 business day (their time).

seems like, they do though.. when are the DTs? what time is it at us side and what time is it at europe side? so yeah, they ARE catering for one side

Pro tip: Mount your nerf gun (assuming your arms have ballistic-capable hardpoints), go over to your girl and remove her armor by carefully aiming and shooting. Intel has shown that her left and right torso sections are quite vulnerable. Make her feel comfortable by announcing her critically damaged body parts as you do so, and afterwards show her your new XL Engine. Boom! Wait time is over. Congrats! Play.

Oh sure let's have all the people at PGI working on this all at the same time regardless of whether or not they are qualified to do so, that will fix EVERYTHING.

Meanwhile, I'll be gettin' the ClueHammer warmed up for you, unless by some miracle your brain boots up first.

Garth, are you just taking the fall for Paul this time?

Wow 693 users, waiting to play and reading this post!

[NitroDev]

These few hours without my precious *insert mech here*! You've forced me to do UNSPEAKABLE things! Like bathe or talk to my family! Or *gasp* go OUTSIDE!!

After all the years of games having maintenance time are people really that surprised when it happens?

[Calimaw]

[Boulangerie]

Thanks for all the replies about premium time perhaps counting down. It just seems like it would be a waste of money to buy this before maintenance if you are going to lose 1/6 of your investment (if buying a single day). As I got the week while on sale it doesn't seem like as much of a loss, but it's still frustrating.

I'm guessing instead of a -8 for 1PM PST time, it was meant to be 1PM China time or +8 GMT. You know that +- sign sit next to each other.

I'm not sure if you understood what I was asking.

[Marchant Consadine]

I do like it that you modify your post so that we know what's going on. I also understand that with server reboots and maintenance things usually don't go as planned so extensions are possible. What I don't understand is that you can't just take the time you think it takes, then double it and post that in the first place. I can guarantee you that no one (well very few atl least) would mind if the servers go up earlier than expected (I think the average daily downtime of EVE was down to about 15 minutes when they officially announced it to be 30 minutes instead of an hour - no one ever complained that it wasn't down fort a full hour).

Sure it will fix everything. According to some project managers, 9 women can have a child in one month.
