Maintenance Schedule

edited September 2023 in Star Trek Online General Discussion
I'm wondering if Cryptic/PWE posts a maintenance schedule somewhere. I've reviewed the forums and STO Reddit but don't seem to be able to find anything.

I wanna have a 'gaming day' but certainly don't want to schedule it on a server maintenance day. Thanks for any info folks!

    This is PWE's Schedule....I just found out about this stuff the other day.

    https://www.arcgames.com/en/arc-news/detail/10999993-arc-scheduled-maintenance-september-2018

    So now, must keep track of PWE's ARC Maintenance AND Cryptic's STO maintenance separately.

    Sometimes we have major maintenance on Tuesdays. But that is usually involving a major content release. Why Tuesday?

    For major content updates being on Tuesday, it would give an extra couple of days for Cryptic to fix some bugs before the weekend that wouldn't be available if it was released on Thursday.

    I think it's gunna be Tuesday and Thursday on a regular basis for a while, at least until Season 15 is released in November this year. This week's 17 hours were already a new record within 59 hours though (only 42 hours up, 17 hours down). At least the Breach got extended by a day, but the downtime was only 7 hours shy of a full day, so that was a logical decision.

    PWE is doing maintenance independantly from Cryptic's weekly ones.
    PWE is posting their scheduled maintenance separately on their ARC News Page....not here on STO Forums:
