I am honoustly getting fed up. A maintenance four times per month is already slightly annoying, but maintenance two days in a row? Why if I may ask?
Yesterday: I came back from school, had to go to work soon. Wanted to play some STO; maintenance. FFS, I thought. Again.
Now, the exact same situation.
Why cant you just TEST the new updates / bug fixes on a seperate private server for only game staff? And upload them on the live server when they are ready?
This would literally stop one of the most annoying things in the game.

Seriously though, would you rather they never did any maintenance? The total down time a month is normally less than one day worth of total time so not really a huge period. Plus it's the same time each week.
part of it is likely that they cannot test EVERYTHING, there will ALWAYS be bugs when patches go live, either because the bug was never found, they HAVE to release a patch every week or so and the problem could not be fixed in time, or (more generally) something happened in teh transition that caused the bug to happen in the first place.
Don't fix bugs in timely manner? => People complain there are bugs.
Can't get it right no matter what they do, it seems. A hard life of a game dev.
Mind you - Sometimes, finding, reproducing & fixing a bug is not as simple as it seems.
With that being said, I don't think this adds anything productive for anyone.
