    I would agree it would make these things easier. Keeping their downtimes open would be for the best. Let us just hope for a fun expeience when they are done.

    completley agree the end result is what matters and a game we can all enjoy with minimal issues bugs etc :D

    @nitocris83 small nitpick: the UTC endtime in the launcher wasn't updated with the last changes. Still show a 5 hour window.

    The extended maintenance is all my fault. Sorry. You see I have the day off today so that's why the game is having problems. If I'd just gone into work I'm sure we wouldn't have a problem.

    I find your lack of yellow text both disturbing and hilarious :D

    @nitocris83 so what exactly caused one of your guys' servers to faulter on the reset?

    as players we deserve a right to know why exaclty it was extended? human error? glitch? what?

    As a player you / we have 1 right which is to follow the EULA, that is all.

    Every MMO is the same, sometimes things go wrong.
    It's just how servers are sometimes too.
    Still it gave me time to tidy my flat and I plan to do the dishes while I wait for news on the update.

    @nitocris83 Thank you that was extremely informational and helpful. I think we all understand exactly what the issue is now and how long it will take to be addressed.

    Cant this game please say the times in GMT? I live in South Africa and we're +2GMT.
    So the rest of the world just have to struggle to figure out what the hell UTC and Pacific times are and convert it somehow to their GMT times they are using?

    So stupid please change or add this Neverwinter.

    They listed UTC (which is the same as GMT, but with less confusion). Just add 2 hours to UTC as you would GMT.

    UTC Is GMT basically as its universal time :D so for you would be +2 UTC

    (Quote) "They listed UTC (which is the same as GMT, but with less confusion). Just add 2 hours to UTC as you would GMT."



    This is what the launcher says: "(12:30-17:30 UTC)"
    So that would mean that for my GMT+2 time the server will be offline from 14:30-19:30? Yet its past that time and the server is still off...

    they havent editored the UTC section in latest edit thats all so would be 7pm UTC based on the 12am pacific time frame

    Yes. See the post by the admin. They are running behind. Let QA make sure all is running fine, otherwise people are just gonna come back here and moan about broken things.

    i feel for you Julia,,, i for one, know and understand the weirdness and glitchy-ness of servers and code and all that fun stuff,,, my fiance works in software engineering for a LARGE telecomunications company and runs that kinda testing,,, many of hours i have seen her searching for one teeny weeny little line of code out of THOUSANDS that is causing things to go wonky,,, SERIOUSLY, if you people who constantly complain about things had any idea whatsoever what it takes to do the stuff these people do is short of amazing in my book,,, it's not like you just go to 4 years minimum of college and then you are magicaly imbued with the knowledge in how to write code,,, and hopefully what you write doesnt interact weirdly with some other line or bit here or there that makes the whole HAMSTER crash,, sometimes it takes weeks or months to find a bug that screws things up with just the right combination of this, that and other thing and suddenly Joe Schmoe logs in from GODS who knows where and triggers the doohiky controlling whosiewhatsit and the whole thing crashes
    just sayin
