    They could give an ETA but if they're wrong it's fires and pitchforks. Since they can't guarantee any ETA they're doing some posts from time to time to make sure people understand they haven't forgotten and are still working on it, but when they have an exact ETA they will post it and it will be updated on the first page :)

    Main question ; what is wrong with the server?

    Echo flips and flaps and dies, and tails quickly becomes "stumps" courtesy of shinobi ninja shuirken attack.
    Victory is mine :D

    He should have brought the dudes and dudettes from Streets of Rage. :D

    Anyways I loved the Ecco games, good times. Ed Annunziata still wants to make another Ecco game but Sega still holds the license and won't make another one, meh. :(

    They didn't patch the game yesterday, yet somehow they managed to TRIBBLE the servers up.

    I bring out the nuclear-powered, flight-capable war machine known as the ZGMF-X10A Freedom Gundam and vaporize both of you with a single volley from my twin rail cannons before then flying into Earth orbit, and moving to hover near Earth Space Dock.

    My guess is their reference frame is for their timezone on the west-coast where it should still be afternoon!?

    Long story short... guys... come back tomorrow. :o

    And again, I"m still curious why it would affect ALL PWE games, but not the Tribble server of STO?

    Since they know there is a problem are there still requests for trace routes?

    Quite a respectable feat, actually. Considering that there wasn't a major update recently, this is an AMAZING accomplishment.

    Kirksplat,
    I've always wondered how the literary process worked when creating content in the Foundry.

    Do You start out writing the story first, then pounding it out into reality, (virtual that is), using our crude Foundry tools?

    What inspires your story writing?

    Just curious.

    Thanks for asking. I think we all work differently. For me, I usually start building sets, like trying to see if I can make a shuttle mission inside a borg cube or make a crazy ziggarut. Often I have several sets done before I have a clue about the story, and then I write a big chunk of it in word. That last part is the hardest part.

    My inspiration usually comes from watching Star Trek and wishing to contribute to the lore in whatever small way I can.

    Others work a lot differently. Some folks have everything mapped out in word before making a set. Thanks again for asking. It's nice to get questions like that from people.

    It says a lot for the developers of this game to simply leave a Volunteer with no information to fend off a bunch of gamers that are rightfully upset and even more justified in their anger due to the fact that no one with any knowledge cares enough to pop on the forums and give us a clue to whats up! The love for their fans is only there when they stand to make a buck. When this game first came out the devs kept us informed because they shared in the excitement of playing the game but with each buy out it became more and more about the money and less about the people who were loyal to this franchise. And i tell you this when that new game comes out that everyone is talking about that shall not be named, That is owned by the gamers and ran by gamers these folks will be sending out email begging fans to come back to sto for the new deals they have to offer and even then I'm afraid it will all be in vane
    END THE WELFARE PROGRAM CRYPTIC OR MAYBE WE NEED TO END YOURS!!!

    To be fair they were my first thought but somebody already beat me to it lol!
    I remember having echo and playing jurrassic park allot more.
    But I have a feeling I have meandered off topic ;p

    So what does "between afternoon and evening" mean to most folks? Because even on the West Coast, that's 5:20 PM when they posted that. I'd call that "evening" already, headed into night.

    Hear, Hear! I am seething with rage that I cannot play this free game that I get to enjoy for free without paying any money for! Righteous indignation all the way!

    If I were cynical -- O wait, I am -- I would say: do away with the 'void' downing/rebooot of the server on a weekly basis, and just let it crash on its own frequent momentum. :D
