    Because they can't.

    First of all, there was NO problems with stability until around 5:30-6:00 eastern time. My guess is it's all the 9-5ers coming home and checking out the expansion.

    Second of all, if you expect them to correct this magically without the benefit of testing under real conditions and real server load, then you know absolutely nothing about software testing. I've QA'd quite a few apps and until you put it into production, you don't really know how the server is going to react.

    Waited 3+ hrs in line then get to play less than 20 minutes before the "maintenance"

    I'm done with this game.

    Sorry Cryptic, but you are sorry Cryptic.

    He is correct, they cannot find bugs if the servers are down, and plus all of us would get upset since we cant get on. At least they are trying to fix the bugs in a timely manner

    Bye.

    Seriously, how many STO players physically do not have anything else to do?

    Those of you that are annoyed by the downtime- this is the biggest expansion since launch. If you're mad it's down, well then go do something else for a few days and come back when it's better.

    To those who are leaving because of expected instability...
    Seeya.



    You won't be missed.
    I ask nothing but that you remember me.

    patches and maintenance are not unexpected

    this was a large release, like previous posts have said, you don't really find all of the bugs and issues until its put under a real life load

    Played a full game of Civ IV on marathon during downtime. Conquest victory in 1685 yo.

    Low sea level, continents map, Chieftan difficulty, no mods if anyone cares.

    True story y'all.

    My guess is "hope" keeps people not playing but posting on the forums. For others, its a path of sad realization and closure. Grieving takes time. The worst "haters" here love the game, or did at some point.

    here i thought that getting the bugs out was something that is for beta, there was more then enough time to work out the bugs if they read them. i have seen the same bugs that where in beta test as in the release,it seem all they did was take the game file from beta and just re released it, bugs and all , in all of the time that i have played online games and that in many years now this i the only game company that has this much down time after a release and that is the why with all of there games. now dont get me wrong i like the game, but if a game has as many bug in it then the company should just say so and then say sorry can you give as a few more days to get the bugs out . i think most people would say ok . but PW is not like that if a game says that it is coming out on this day then that what happens bugs and all.then they go opps we have to bring the the down for hour on end because the game is buged.
