you know here in italy we are quite used to wait, the burocracy is like a life maze where you have to proove to be dead to pass over the next phase...NW is the same, it has to be dead to proove us it went good the new mod expansion!
The servers are in America. They should be used to Americans by now:
Notice no notice or updates on twitter, forums, or facebook about servers being down. What means of communication am i forgetting to check?
from twitter:
We're aware that the gates of Strongholds are having issues. We've sent our masons to check it out.
I can read. That does not say that the servers are down.
No... it's their cute little way of saying they are down... without saying they are down.
Honestly... I dont know why they think they can pull of a module release anywhere near their original ETA, nor why they think they can do it without a major server issue after it is supposedly "live".
Every module release has been FUBAR on the day of the update... taking hours longer than they originally estimate. Simple patches cant even be done within their projected ETA's.
The entire community has been putting up with this since launch... and quite frankly, it is getting... no... it IS old. We are tired of it.
Oh... and now this...
"We accidentally let a dragon in the office. Knights are coming to slay it. ETA for Strongholds is now 3:30pm PDT."
More cuteness. It doesnt make anyone smile... its not cute... nor is it professional.
Well, there goes that. My wife said I could spend $50.00 USD on this game if it actually came online (AND WORKING) by 1pm EST. Sorry Cryptic.. no $50.00 for you.

Whenever I had to do server maintanience or major software updates it was always at 2am.
That way if dragons got into the server room we had extra time to fix it BEFORE peak network usage hours....
Why are you complaining? As it has been said time and time again, the PW server works flawless, if ppl would not try to log in, there would be no log in issues, lags, rubberbanding etc. It is our fault, sorry PW.

Should I start making whipping sound effects? Nah, that's just crass.
I'm bummed because I opened a buncha refining packs I'd been storing around, hoping to get a 15% off coupon. And I got one! Was gonna use it on VIP packs when BAM!!!!!!!!!!!
Server inaccessible. and since apparently time the server is down counts towards the timestamp of things, and coupons only last 2 hours, there goes 400ish zen

Seconded A'mie. With that 3:30pm "ETA" *laughs to self*, that places it too far into the night .....or to take a chance that it won't be extended yet further!
Hopefully my fellow guildies will get in before I wake up in the morning

It was Minsc and Boo. Lets chop Minsc's head off, sew Boos head on the body and hang it from our stronghold wall. Then, we can do those Seed quests in peace without him knocking all the mobs out of our AoE zones.

Cryptic, git gud nubs.
and you probably had SLA's to adhere to, customers you didn't want to upset, and a PM who nagged you to death about testing your processes/procedures and having a backout plan.
you guys know that this forum during server downtime is by far the most exiting/enjoyable part of NW at all?
its like a tradition for me now, every time they put up an ecpansion i came here to enjoy you!
i have a new black balkanian tobacco pack, plenty of papers&filters, a good expresso, nothing is missing to me.
The forum game is the best mini-game in NW!!!
Mate, since that <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> of Mod 6 we play more Forum and professions, than the actual game.

Would really appreciate some feedback on the official forum, but since I have to wait 19 more hours to play I guess I will monitor the action on my tablet
No professions for me for 2 days
There are more than BIS players in this game RIP Real Tiamat, RIP Real Demogorgon RIP real Temple of the spider. Why remove non bis content to give to bis players ???? FORCING the majority of your player base to play 4 mod old dungeons and trial will have a bad result on player base Changes are getting so bad i would rather prefer no new changes (RIP ICE FISHING in winter fest)

An update that take all day long, that's strange. As others have said I hope we will have some kind of feedback of what is happening and at what time the server is expected to be up again.
