Khetanna Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 They couldn't do it yesterday 'cause too many kids would QQ 'bout it. To be honest, I'm happier that they're doing it tomorrow rather than waiting for next Tuesday. Why does it matter anyway? So what, you're losing 8 hours gameplay. Read a book, go to sleep, cry about how BW is against you, doesn't bother me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nimithril Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Why the sudden change to 10pm as a downtime? You've already alienated the West Coast, New Zealand and Australia in the past, by shutting down at Midnight, now, you gotta screw over the West even more, and go at 10pm? The downtime is 8 hours, same as every other downtime. Why the early shutdown? Why move it more into primetime? Oh, and @StephenReid....3 days notice? Looks like about a 1 day notice to me, but then again, they didn't teach them new fangled math-e-ma-matics at my grade school, high school or college. At 10pm, all good little children should be in bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guiltybydesign Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 So tell me exactly when it would be good for you. Give me a day and time. As a commando healer, never would be fine with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Zone Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 I find it interesting and more than a little disturbing that there are STILL people on here QQing about the downtime tomorrow night/Thursday morning. This is too good! Ok, please continue. I'm being entertained. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain_Zone Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 I just love 1st world problems. Having spent some time in a 3rd world country myself, I LOVE watching people have sobbing fits because they can't play their precious game 24/7 and have to actually do something else for 7 - 9 hours... and in the US, it's the DEAD OF NIGHT to early in the morning! Don't get me wrong. I love this game. I just don't feel the need to QQ about downtime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dylancholy Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 (edited) I cannot believe someone was dumb enough to make this thread. The OP's posts, like a few others in this thread, are so bafflingly uninformed. Edited April 11, 2012 by Dylancholy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chimex Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 (edited) The OPs' remarks brings up a particular saying to mind, "Sometimes, when you give someone a bag of gold, they complain about how heavy it is" OP dont be so ungreatful. You got a few hours to do something else in your life, do it. Edited April 11, 2012 by chimex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only shake my head at the OP. It is sad that this is an actual complaint. He does have his right to complain but couldn't he use it to complain about something a little more...important for a lack of a better word?

Patsilver Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 I'm waiting for all the QQ threads after 1.2 is deployed. No matter what is in 1.2 there will be people who will complain about it. Make sure you have plenty of popcorn lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emned Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough. No matter what you do, someone will complain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wessik Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 It's about more than that. If this was a F2P MMO, no big deal. I'm not paying for the service, so they can bring down the servers anytime as far as I care. BW, this guy wants his 2 hours worth paid back... you owe him 4 cents right meow! $15/744 hours (in a month) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least give some credit to the author of that quote. On topic: OP is entitled to complain, as they are an active subscriber. It amazes me just how many responses in this thread are just complainers, complaining about one particular complainer. You all need to get a life and stop trolling these boards.

Fallballa Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 I don't get it, really - i am just happy to get game update 1.2 this week. We do not have to pay any extra money for the additional content they give us. How can everyone dare to complain about the downtime. Even if it would be 8 hours up from 6pm i would not be angry at all -.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You all need to get a life and stop trolling these boards. I am not complaining. Just observing. Those complaining about complaining are disagreeing with the OP Those Complaining about people complaining about complaining is perhaps a trifle more of a concern than complaining about those complaining Edited April 11, 2012 by corbanite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I for one am excited that the maintenance is coming sooner rather than later because I've been waiting for 1.2 for far too long. Clearly no matter what time the devs pick it will screw over somebody, and if this time it has to be me, so be it.

wessik Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 2 things bother me about the deployment of 1.2 1. Scheduled downtime was set by BW for tuesdays. Now they're changing it again, why wasn't this done today or next tuesday instead? 2. Now we're patching the day before the weekend. Why can I forsee 2-3 patches coming out on the weekend now? At least if it was a tuesday deployment then they'd have 2-3 days to fix any issues instead of letting us either ride it out over the weekend with a broken game or taking the game offline for a large percentage of the weekend. regular maintenance will always be tuesday night... game update 1.1 was on a thursday and so will 1.2... see a pattern yet?

You presume too much. I am also still having fun with the game, otherwise I wouldn't be playing it. I subbed for the long haul as well, and no, $20 a month isn't a huge deal to me. I too am looking forward to some of the changes coming with 1.2 But I don't think anyone should have to pay to beta test. And if you think for one second 1.2 is in a good place atm, good enough to go live; then at least we will have something to disagree on Edited April 11, 2012 by Ignicity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
