    think he ment the week by week schedule like the FE Replays are normally done.

    +1

    Yes. Looking for the weekly schedule.

    With so much to collect Winter Coats, Breen Ships and all the old FE items; it would be nice if they let ALL of them run the entire month, but am sure it will be a weekly thing again.

    Every week for about two months my day off has coincided with an update. last time I purposefully moved it to friday, we had a friday update. Today I had no option to change so went xmas shopping and timed it to get home for the update.. it's been extended.

    I'm cursed :mad::(:eek:

    Well this is what you get from a 3rd rate developer team. :p

    Since the holiday event wasn't on tribble for testing im guessing there is bugs on that too that were glaringly obvious to players but not testers. :D

    You aren't cursed, the developers need more robust implimentation plans. Simple as that.

    If you want to see major patching failure, take a look at Blacklight Retribution. Another of PWE's current projects, it suffered massive issues in a patch recently. Not only did it take hours (in some case days) to actually download, it rendered the game unplayable for most people. Connecting from Europe had lower latency to the US server than EU :|

    Just replay the last one of each series, or the entire series to enjoy it more. Maybe they bring back the free lobi as well.

    go to the Episode list, you might have to skip a bunch if you haven't played the episodes to get to them.

    People aren't gunning for the messenger. The issue here is likely a process failure not a person failure. Given this happens regularily, it suggests that failures to meet expected downtime targets are not considered a problem internally.

    Nothing will get resolved if delays are classed as "business as usual".

    Unforseen problems are just a cop out for lack of preparation and testing.

    I get what you're saying, and I can be very patient with admins and techs. I've done those jobs before, and they definitely are thankless and stressful. So I'll just sit back and wait, and in the meantime find some way to be productive.
