Update: The servers have been down for some time at this time and will continue to experience downtime until such time as they no longer require said downtime this time. *Said downtime is everywhere all at once so need to convert to your local time at this time or any other time.
I'm not sure WoW or FF14 would be any different. Pantheon, Star Citizen, and Ashes of Creation would just sell you a $500 'Alpha Access at an undetermined date' bundle.
They're only 30% beyond their original estimate. #R-E-L-A-X! No riots allowed until we're at the 50% under-delivered mark.
Curious, from what time does the additional 1.5 hours start? We could start a go fund me account to DB--new clock!!
I'm guessing from the time the message was posted which was 2 PM Eastern time. That would make it 3:30 PM Eastern time.
I have a king-sized rant that is trying to burst out but I want to continue playing this game so I will overcome the urge to outline the numerous mistakes made surrounding today's planned maintenance.
As an IT professional I know that when I am dealing with a down time situation, outage, or critical issue. I lose sight of updating cases, stakeholders, leadership.... Yet I know how important it is and I see no reason the community team cant toss us updates every 30 minutes even if its just that there is no status change. If games going to be down a lot longer people could plan around it etc. Just a courtesy our $15 a month properly deserves.
Congratulations DPG! When you have 1000 window lickers waiting for the doors to open, you know you’ve made a good product.
Im questioning why I am paying for a game that has lengthy downtime with inaccurate information of being fixed
Ya for me it's saying a connection cannot be established. So no server select screen just a constant could not connect to servers.
