Hello all:

Just wanted to inform everyone that we will be conducting an additional session of server maintenance tonight (Wed., Dec. 17) from 2 am to 4 am.

We do apologize for the inconvenience. There are a couple of fixes that need to be pushed out as well as updated data for the upcoming Christmas events and quests.

Upon resumption of service your client will download an additional patch.

thx!

    I work from 2pm-10:30pm and sometimes 11:30pm, and I don't even get home until around midnight. I'm new to the game so imagine how this is for me. At least you get 4 hours. I'm lucky if I can get 30 minutes to an hour. I started a blademaster last night and I hadn't even become familiarized with Etherblade before they had to do maintenance. Now I'm probably only going to get another 30 minutes to an hour before I need to go to sleep. My girlfriend plays a lot during the day and is out-leveling me :-( lol This sucks.

    wtf...postponed TT/FB plans and...for what..... did all GM realized they'd have to work late so went out to pub/home instead ? or maybe patch wasnt 100% and theyre actually testing it...
    either way update us?

    lol, that's kinda how it is with me and my bf. i play his char for him an hour or so a day to help him out.

    btw. for everyone that is freaking out that the maintance is delayed or even happening wtf? they're working on it, delays happen, get over it. Games need patches, especially this early on. i mean arent we still in open beta anyways. i'd much rather the maintance for 2 hours once a week and the emergency ones once in a while than a game with a ton of glitches and no updates for events and such.

    From what I have been told by GM's so far they are trying to get everything done with the servers being up as long as possible. You may be kicked sometime so that the new patch can get live.

    2 hours.. T__T So looong.

    2 hours for a patch to fix bugs? Although Dawn of War is an RTS game, its latest expansion Soulstorm had 4 gamebreaking bugs that took Relic 7 months to fix.

    So 2 hours is not that long for a fix, its rather... expedient compared to the wait times for many other games.

    OMG, stop complaining!

    At least they ARE fixing bugs, unlike that other version I played before.

    I for one would like to thanks the GMs/Admins/Devs for working hard to fix the bugs that crept in with yesterday's patch.

    Thanks Brit for the sig b:laugh

    I for one pity the GM's who had to work on this tonight. Don't forget 2am-4am PST... And they still have to be at work like normal in the morning. So if everything goes well they can leave the office for about 5am then the journey home, not everyone can go to bed straight away when coming home... So sleeping by 7am if lucky? b:shocked
