    I guess patches will follow the usual pattern (i.e. n Thursdays). This looks like an extra maintenance specifically targeting stability. Hope it will work as I have experienced quite a number of disconnections recently.

    That's all? No game updates/patches?

    For the last 7 days the server's been having problems. Where the all the servers went down for what ever reason at the same time. Also you would be playing and out of the blue you would get disconnected many people commented about that in game.

    So I would say a extended maintenance is very much so warranted.

    Keep us in the loop. Last time this kind of maintenance pops up, it took longer than expected.

    Why not do it Thursday or with Thursdays update? I'd rather 7 hours one day instead of down time over 2 days!!

    My hope is as it always is that the Options UI gets a fix soon. Several options with dropdowns is click through no matter if you move the window around or re-arrange UI boxes example 'Show Character name' the only one you can select is on mouseover the otehrs you click through it and since it is ontop of Chat tab you end up expanding that and not getting the options you wanted. There are others but can not remember them off the top of my head, as to the five hours downtime well I can get some things done for the day and make up my NvW time later

    This is (well, was except for being extra-long) the regular maintenance time for both consoles, so it's actually fewer outages overall this way. They can try to address stability now, but we can hope for some much-needed fixes this week as well.

    No worries, I luckily have been intaking a substantial amount of dew and well, been converting from Pacific to Eastern for almost two decades, lol. In the very first MMO I ever played, the server I played on was in California. Ever since, it always seems like whatever game I play, they're on Pacific time. >.<

    The company keeps shooting themselves in the foot by not having a mirrored test bed to run fixes, patches on first.... getting a tool that can mirror a production server and run tests is not all that difficult the market is full of them. Applying a patch or releasing a mod then sitting back to see the effects is so early 2000's.

    I suppose that the addition of - COMPLETE to the topic means that we should be able to log in now?
    Because I sure can not. The launcher opens and then it just sits there trying to connect.
