    Rollback? omg.. wtf?

    how far is that going back?

    And PLEASE can we get release notes?

    Rollback is because of items being lost in SG banks,its going back to the state it was before the patch,and I think that if it is rolling back,release notes would be redundant,unless the patch is fixed today and re-released today


    Rollback will be purely to right before maintenance, is my understanding.

    We will be having release notes for the updated update (once the servers open up), but they will be pretty minimal.

    What IF all this emergency maintenance stuff was on purpose just to tell players "Look we included all this awesome stuff and fixed every bug in game, but had to rollback due to an unforseen problem" but actually didn't have a patch ready? :InsertconspiracyKeanumeme:

    edit: also since it was lost on the flood of posts, I give you this! Imported directly from PWI forums.

    Also, someone needs to do one of this for CO, some ideas "QQ Nemesis QQ Gravitar QQ FF Bags"

    Points for Bob Seger...AvX is Avengers vs X-Men, right? How's that going? I've been mostly re-reading older comics (cheaper), so I haven't been up to date with new arcs.

    I've been listening to Bob Seger's "Greatest Hits" for a few days. His music reminds me of a good ole' fashion travelog of "night moves" on two wheelers or sixteen. His sound runs "against the wind" and seems timeless, "still the same." It beckons a reflection on what rock & roll used to be and can still become in our time.

    Avenger vs. X-Men...Yes. It's been a good run so far.

    I think they were trying to remove the bug that @petroferencz uses to scamm from sg banks.

    Because they patched on a friday.

    No game should ever get a non-emergency patch between friday and monday morning. Its bad luck, everyone knows that. :rolleyes:

    A rollback usually means the patch is being removed. In fact, I recall that they said the client is going back to pre-maintenance status. So there isn't going to be a lot to update if the game is going to be at pre-maintenance status.

    You were looking at the wrong number I believe. 1.3gb were your local files that got altered in some way. The size of the actual download was 75mb or so. Actual content patches tend to download ~300mb minimum on CO.

    im fairly certain nighthawk is another archetype not a new character

    It's both I believe 'cause Nighthawk is a pnp character in the CO-RPG universe.

    Nighthawk is an NPC template in the PnP. The Night Avenger AT is what everyone is thinking of as far as the new AT would have been.

    Minimal because they're rolling back to before the patch, so that means, very little change.

    When they get the patch fixed, then you will have your release notes with all the new stuff.

    Just wondering, would anyone happen to know when abouts the servers might be coming back up? Its almost 3pm on the east coast here. :P (P.S- before anyone rages about my question, I did read about the rollbacks and whatnot, just curious since I was hoping to play before I went to work)

    When I logged in earlier, my worm character had no head/wormyness. It was quite distressing. :(

    EDIT: Would also like to thank trail for keeping us company while he squirm in anticipation and withdrawal.

    Unfortunately, I do not have an ETA. This will certainly involve some serious testing to be sure that the update the servers come back with is working properly.

    Give Live Bullet a try. Dave Marsh was quite correct.

    So, what amount of time would constitute a lapse of available play time? I mean, I want to get my paid month in... If days are missed, it should be because I made stupid decisions like sleeping and eating.

    When the red dot on your Patcher turns to green the update is done.
    Or the Main site Server Status reads: UPinstead DOWN the update is done.
