MightyHalo Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 wow anyone know what they are patching on a saturday morning? That's like my favorite playtime of the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VorpalK Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I imagine it's a critical issue or exploit(s) being patched. Generally, when something like this is announced, that's what's going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThunderZtorm Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Just get trashed tonight and you'll wake up after it's done. 4pm GMT. That's the entire Saturday gone for EU players. It's as if BW wants EU players to run away from the game. Well, they succeeded - sub cancelled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me fix this for you: "Awesome. I know it's a little irritating to have to back off the game for 4 hours in the morning on a Saturday, but this really shows that Bioware is taking complaints and criticisms seriously and taking pains to patch what they can as soon as they can get the patches ready. It'll be a tough, jittery, nerve-racking 4 hours, but I'd rather not have to wait for Monday or Tuesday for whatever fixes are in the patch."

Rilauven Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I am thankful that Bioware patches the game in a timely manner. I am thankful that Bioware allows me to sleep on the weekends! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VorpalK Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 They love to screw over the EU every time. Bad enough on week days but weekends is really taking the piss. Get over it. They're working within the time period that works best for the majority of their subscribers. Hopefully, after they get a few maintenances under their belts, they can start doing separate maintenances for your servers. For critical fixes like exploit patches, don't bet on it. It's like this in pretty much any MMO that isn't published/run by an EU company. This can't be news to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, they certainly took the MASSIVE amount of complaints about EU maintenance times seriously. Oh, wait. They've completely ignored it at all levels.

djsmileey Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I hope they implement __________ so that it can provide people with more things to complain about even if the problem they had was fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderZtorm Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 It's as if the Bioware team that implements patches isn't located in EU time zones and deserves to not have to implement patches at hours inconvenient to themselves and the entire US continent just so EU players don't get butthurt.i FIFY Which is very strange considering that the EU servers are located in the Republic of Ireland, in Europe, and are maintained by the local server team, in Ireland, in Europe. The European customer support is ALSO located in Ireland, Europe. It's as if BW is just generally stupid in that sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blotter Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Yeah, they certainly took the MASSIVE amount of complaints about EU maintenance times seriously. Oh, wait. They've completely ignored it at all levels. Because it's a totally irrational complaint. Dude...they have to pick a time and implement the patches across ALL servers at once. Where do you think the employees doing that are located? Where do they live? Where are the majority of the players? Your whining about the EU mainenance times isn't really well thought out.

Aisar Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I feel bad for the EU guys. I think I would be pissed too if maintenance was going on during the day. And then weekend on top of it but the idea of maintenance is to do it really early in the morning. Which works for us americans great but is total opposite for EU but then weekends is just like..slapping you guys in the face now. oh yeah? RUBBER CHICKEN SLAP! or a bass. a big fish.
