    Hey everyone! I wanted to share a quick update with you all concerning the schedule of in-game content updates for DC Universe Online.

    Starting next week, we're changing our weekly game update days from Thursdays to Tuesdays. In-game content will now be available following brief downtime on Tuesday mornings, instead of the usual Thursday morning releases.

    This kicks off on July 2nd with the launch of the next Booster Bundle and our Tides of War Summer Event update! Stay tuned for more info on both

    Will this affect weekly reset of weekly missions/raids? Or is this just purely for game updates, episode releases, seasonals, etc.

    Ie. Will weekly reset still align with these updates?

    What you guys doing?
    The event is on test for over a month now tell us you push it to next month?
    basically they change the reset day for the only day of the week they are actually working on the game ...

    Also has Summer Seasonal become a purely July event now? In previous years it has launched early to mid June, usually by the Summer Solstice at the latest. Is this an intended change or was it delayed?

    I like this change personally, changes are hard but if It's for a good reason and for more communication then this is fine by me. Would also like to know how it will effect (if it does) the weekly reset, as me and my league like to do our raid runs on the weekend.

    What about 2x artifact exp? We havent had a new about it for almost a year, is it going to come back or not? At least give us a straight answer, i am personally tired of saving up nth metal hoping the 2x arts exp comes, so is 2x artifact xp going to happen? Yes or no? and if the answer is yes, when is it going to happen?

    Thanks for taking a straightforward system that has worked for thirteen years and making it more confusing with absolutely no explanation as to why this is an improvement for us, or for you, or for anyone.

    Separating weekly resets and content resets is a good thing, why, exactly? What are the benefits?

    Also, is anyone EVER going to update "Upcoming Events and Content" in the Announcement forums, where we go to look for and check timing of everything?

    To remind you about this, it still currently says:

    So apparently soon "'Braniac' [sic] Returns!" will drop! And it will soon be the second week of May!

    When will you guys start updating basic crucial information for us like this? Why are the special weeks no longer listed as per the norm?

    In the past it was originally Tuesdays to coincide with PS system updates but then later was changed when xbox became a thing. We're just going back to how it used to be, no biggie.

    I will not be spending any money, till you fix the issues. These changes should also then reflect weekly resets this is just Awful!

    FIX:

    Chat bug issues, since January
    Lag Since February
    DLC Unplayable
    Alert Frame Rate and Lag
    Overlord Resets and glitches out or just stand there and you have to find a new phase
    Tumbler Timer this is the worst weekly. 30 people killing tumblers with a timer, the amount and timer needs to go
    NO WINGED ARMORS, this needs to be reduced or fixed
    Daily Login Reward Changes, we get less and less. I didn't ask for 1 base item and R&D Components are you guys serious?

    All these issues and little to no communication and you want us to spend money. I wouldn't mind if there wasn't so many issues in the game and there was more communication.

    More like five, tops. If you pull up either the episode list or the update list themselves...it's all over the place before 2019. Members even used to get a few days extra before they opened it up, at one point. It hasn't been consistent at all.

    I think having two different start points for players will be kind of confusing. Also in theory if you have releases on Tuesday but weekly reset on Thursday when do potentially Bonus Weeks start and end?

    Great, another lateral move that's essentially a big middle finger to the players in the long run. Good to know the devs are too preoccupied with that instead of fixing the multitude of issues the get compounded as each day goes by.

    Maybe consider throwing more resources into fixing and stabilizing the game instead of pumping out cosmetics for the whales to scarf down.

    Well...to begin with, if they keep this model of weekly resets-game updates separated, it means no more downtime during weekly reset day. Thats a win to me. And its something that has been asked many times during all these years.

    We mostly have people on during the weekend in our league people work ect , so weekly update and the reset should go hand in hand.

    Like in my previous post whoever is making these changes after so many years. So update Tuesday and then only 2 days to run the content before reset and events depending on the days are we getting extra days or we will be loosing out those days as well?

    Just really bad decisions lately, yet so many other issues in the game that needs to be fixed months and months of issues but lets take away login rewards and oh yeah make this awful change.

    Oh so what you're doing here is trying to prevent players from getting in that final extra reset on any seasonals and bonus content by moving it to Tuesdays and leaving resets on Thursdays - is that what's happening here?

    Then you tell us you appreciate our patience and understanding, while your servers continue to lag, continue to drop out everywhere, the forums run like a dog, the alert is unplayable, the wing armors don't spawn for the daily mission.

    YOUR GAME IS BROKEN AND THEN YOU RELEASE A BOOSTER BUNDLE, YOU EXPECT ME TO PAY GAMBLING MONEY FOR IN AND YOUR SERVERS ARE BROKEN, ARE YOU SERIOUS RIGHT NOW?

    I am not buying your booster bundles when your servers are broken and the new DLC is terrible to play, You say you appreciate our patience and understanding, well, if you couldn't tell, my patience has worn out, because while you guys are worried about putting out more booster bundles and changing release dates (which hurts your players) you've not fixed your servers or the DLC problems, so instead of worrying about booster bundles, perhaps fix your servers for a start!
