    This is not a normal message. Normally you can pre-patch the Thursday patch and get ready for when the servers come back.

    All of the shards (Holo, Tribble , Redshirt) are down without any method of applying the patch.

    Perhaps the day has finally come and this game has gone to the dustbin in the sky ;)

    Well, you have a real emotial tying problem since you are still comenting about the game even if you seem to hate it ;)

    We will update this thread if that time will be further extended.

    Thank you for your patience everyone!

    FYI - Every time stuff like this happens, the trick to getting more info is going over to the Neverwinter forums because it seems the STO people don't like divulging technical details.

    http://nw-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?848891-Neverwinter-Scheduled-Maintenance-2-19-at-6-AM-PST&p=10143571&viewfull=1#post10143571

    Update 1 (6:05 AM PST) Maintenance has begun.
    Update 2 (7:42 AM PST) An issue appeared with the account server that has caused a delay in the usual maintenance process. Because of this we have extended the estimated downtime by one hour to 10 AM PST.
    Update 3 (8:24 AM PST) - We've identified the issue with the account server and will be working to resolve it. However this means we will need to extend maintenance by another hour. The new estimated time is 11:30 AM PST. We apologize for any inconvenience this might have caused.

    Notice how there the first delay was announced 2 hours and the second 1 hour before Smirk did his update.

    I am rather curious who taught them timing if 1 hr goes from 10 till 11:30...

    Why they don't update the red bar on the launcher, & expect us to figure this TRIBBLE out by either going to facebook or the neverwinter forums blows my mind. They either have no concept of customer service or they just don't give a damn. No wonder cryptic has an F rating w/ the BBB.

    Wow. I wish we had something like that over here as well. They actually receive live updates.

    i see it too, strange that message has never come up.




    theres always 1 or 2 that dont read and get the wrong idea, try and patch the game it will say "No shards are available to your account at this time."

    thats not cos of the downtime, that message has never come up before if youve been in the game long enough u would know that.

    Been here since closed beta actually. Haven't had that message myself, but others from back then DID. It came up when the login server was down for patching generally, which wasn't as often as your straight up server patch.

    Thought it was just me having difficulty. Sorta glad I'm not alone. I'd be happier if there were no issue, but at least someone at Cryptic, if not STO, is willing to let players know what's going on.

    Was hoping to get in today before lunch, guess that's not going to happen now. Oh well, maybe after lunch.

    IMO, it was really, REALLY stupid They closed it...

    It was a lot of mostly harmless fun and certainly kept the disturbance of other threads down to a minimum.

    If I thought They'd let it be, I'd start a DOOM THREAD II just for the fun of it.

    Well with Smirk's post implying a minimum of 5 and a half hours downtime now, I guess I wont be playing today. Oh well, Arma here I come.
    Join date is wrong, I've actually been around since STO Beta.

    I had a feeling there was going to be an extension.
    Hopefully at least some of the serious problems are being sorted out.
    Ideally the game needs a complete overhaul, and who knows, perhaps the servers upgraded so they cope alot better with no more disconnections.

    Like someone else mentioned, that message is up because the account server had some problem which they're fixing hence the extra downtime.

    I'd call you a "liar" since you can't spell it properly. If your going to be childish you could at least learn to type and spellcheck properly.

    My join date is July because my two forum accounts couldn't be merged so after a month of waiting for a mod to figure out which button to push, I just made a new account and used that instead.

    Just because you're ignorant, don't assume those who know are wrong.

    Wow, until 10 pm. :( That's a 7 hour patch; and still Smirk is talking about the possibility that things "will be further extended." Quite upset now. Basically, for us Europeans, you unplugged the server for the day as of 3 pm.

    Guys, this maintenance extension is to be expected, isn't it? Hopefully they will work out the bugs that have been plaguing the game recently. :D
