Hey everyone!

We'll be performing a scheduled maintenance tomorrow (Thursday) at 7AM PDT (when is that in your time zone?). Estimated downtime is 90 minutes.

Patch notes will be available here.

Thank you! :)

Updated 7AM Pacific Time: We are still working on the Patch Notes and hope to have them up later this morning. Thanks for your patience!

Updated 8:15AM Pacific Time: Maintenance has been delayed slightly and the new ETA is 9:00 a.m. Pacific Time (~45 minutes from the time of this edit).

Updated 9:15AM Pacific Time: Maintenance complete!

    I think that means that the patch notes will show up there during/after the maintenance.

    PS: Nice maintenance time, midnight Australian time, love it! :)

    Jokeznz and cgplayer are correct... WTF???? Its 11:13PM PST and the servers are down???

    What janitor did you put in charge of the servers this evening?
    I really like your game... and have spent quite a bit to help fund it, but when I cant play it I tend to get kinda pissed.
    Be happy im mad about this, as one day i will not be. Alas that will be the day when i and your loyal customers will be done putting up with this HAMSTER and move on to another game.

    With Love
    Scott.
    PS... bring the god **** servers back online, and stop telling us one thing and while doing something else.
    They came from.... BEHIND!!!! ;)

    So who over there took down servers 8 hours too early? Sheesh. Sticking to your announced timeframes would be nice.

    As for those wondering about the patch notes: they've been posted in the Neverwinter Preview Shard subsection of the forums a little while ago (it's where you can always find proposed changes before they are rolled onto live servers). The link is http://nw-forum.perfectworld.com/forumdisplay.php?1192-NeverwinterPreview-Announcements-Release-Notes. Just mind that there could be some slight alterations (there was also a bigger topic listing bug fixes and some profession changes, but it seems to have been removed).

    Servers were never taken down, there is a problem with the authentication server tonight. It happened 3 hours ago too.

    Yeah, at least we get some game time. Most other MMOs are not so considerate of us Aussies :-)

    Any chance this patch is going to unlock Alchemy levelling for those of us who have gotten stuck at 0 xp to next level when we finished the Research Task on the Gateway? I've been stuck at going from 9 to 10 since Monday morning now since there is now no way for me to generate any more Alchemy XP.

    C'mon guys, where's your sense of adventure? The notes will be here when the notes arrive, looka at it as an adventure... Or, let's play a game. Let's not read the notes until after 4h of newly patched gameplay and see how many of the changes we managed to spot?

    Thanks for the heads up Som, keep it up!

    Personally i don't like this midnight patch cause for those of us that WORK for a living midnight is the time we are playing :/ i think a 3am patch would work in with most Australian's play time. but due to time zones i understand how that may not be feasible.

    I lost my sense of adventure when I hit lvl 60 , now all I care about is whether they are going to finally fix all the glitches and bugs that afflict my CW or if they deem repairing nonsense like the VIP area of the Moonstone mask or whatever its called more important hence why I need the patch notes...

    So they are deciding what to fix on the fly and will tell us what they've done after the fact? Interesting approach.

    Flame me if you want but I swear, this game has some of the biggest whiners I have ever seen. For crying out loud, they are fixing something, give them a break. I'm a programmer by day and I would kick yall out of my office and extend the downtime if I had to put up with this.

    yeah i heard they got sick of people whinning and b*tching and decided to screw your game up with lame a*s patching. At least it keeps you happy with something to moan about.^^

    They've spoiled us by being patient and cool about it. Probably because they know they aren't our parents so teaching us a lesson isn't their job. I'm not whining though, I'm just killing time until I can see what was done.

    Wow, it's a game. A game. Relax, children. It is truly appalling to see the tantrums on these forums. Go walk your dog or mow the lawn. Or at least get out of your den in mom's basement and make your own pizza bites.

    Was a simple question, not a whine or *****. I guess being a pri ck just comes naturally to people like you.

    Want to complain to someone who cares about their image and owns the rights to D&D: http://company.wizards.com/contactus

    If I were them I would be pissed reading the FB page comments that are there daily and this forum. Fail production in my opinion... Fail.

    Seriously? That puts it at 10 am there time, which is not really acceptable to them I am sure. They are located in California, so they go by their own time zone, there is no real reason for them to feel obligated to go by anyone's time zone but their own. , but their own.

    You just don't get around much I guess.
