How long are maintenance usually? Is it estimated time frame, or open ended "be done when its done"
During headstart we had two, each lasting an hour. Since the Open Beta launch, we had one for two hours and one for four. The current situation is not a scheduled maintenance, but a network/hardware issue. How long the scheduled maintenance later in the day will be, we haven't been told yet.

This is lame to see complaining posts, even more seeing people who paid for the game. I agree with some of previous posts, all games still got bugs, if you want PLAYABLE game, let them fix the game and stfu about maintenances. Even you paid doesn't mean youre a boss in this game, remember its free to play game and you just paid for early access. They didn't made you to pay it, you did it with youre decision even thought you knew it's a new game. To you all complainers, if you knew atleast a bit about programming and stuff, you'd know how hard is fixing buggs and stuff. Just to make you know, even one wrong variable can crash whole program. To find that wrong thing, you need to search it in 100k+ lines of code.
So be patient if you want to have good playable game. They DON'T waste your time just go at fresh air, remember they spend years of their lifes to make this game. Respect them for their work.

Good news, everyone. We are currently deploying the latest patch, which means that we will not need the previously scheduled maintenance."
Its still in beta. The whole point of beta is to find and work out the bugs
You guys allways talk about beta... but it seems you never ever even see an real beta testing..
ESO have a BETA test.. if you got an invite you going to test some gameplay and balancing...
After a BETA all chars are deleted... and in a real beta you dont get a char to lvl from 1-max and see the lore and quests...
Also.. in a BETA there would never be an PAY function... but ZEN are active.. so if you talk about BETA be aware NEVERWINTER isnt a BETA is a Dummy Lunch and the dummys are crying und flaming
Give them time to update teh **** and hope that it works .. last thing we wonna happen to this game is become a second AOC or Tera
maintenance, i can understand...but can't you guys post an estimated ending time so i don't have to sit here endlessly launching and relaunching the game to check if the servers are back up? =(
great game so far, btw.
u may ask developer'z to attachemnt on main page, status on server & login, i think it'z be a good idea.
also: beta it'z beta, crashes & etc.
