Noxside Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 No warnings, spent 40 mins to get group for an OP through the Group Finder, finally got one, first boss down to 20% in EV then booted :< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FourTwent Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 They did post in game... 15 minute warning, then 10, then 5, 4, 3, 2, 1... flashes red across the center of your screen. Too busy responding to the trolls on the fleet? i did not see any warnings on the Pub fleet for Fatman. But we were talking about the lag in general, then someone said game will go down at 30 after. which was confirmed from their twitter and facebook by others on the fleet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterMarcusius Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 A few minutes of downtime gets a much more interesting reaction than several hours of enjoyable uptime. sad but true... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NatusPerEnsem Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Dear Bioware, An in-game announcement would have been nice. Not everyone thinks to check the dev tracker thread before logging in and periodically during game-play. Another thing that would have been nice...an estimate on downtime. Great, you're restarting the servers. How long does that take? ...just as long as maintenance downtime? Less? More? Aside from the bugs that players tolerate because this is an otherwise great game, lack of communication is the biggest challenge to SW:TOR's well being. You have a dedicated fan-base that is obviously very willing to work with you when issues arise if you let them know what's going on. The only thing people hate more than inconveniences are surprise inconveniences. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fudgeismade Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Ah gaaaad! I want to play. Today is my only day off with the house to myself, so I can play tor and drink coffee in my pajamas all day. GOOOOO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyceratops Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 A few minutes of downtime gets a much more interesting reaction than several hours of enjoyable uptime. Funny thing about the human brain: we have about two and a half times the level of emotional response from negative things than we do from positive things. So we automatically feel worse when bad things happen even if the good things technically outweigh the bad ones. Also, those hours of enjoyable uptime were expected smooth sailing; these minutes of downtime has been an unexpected interruption to said smooth sailing. This creates a negative reaction if you're not completely insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fardarter Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Ya, you'll be saying the same thing on GW2, then your next MMO, then your next MMO, then your next..... Having played GW2 in beta I can tell you that GW2 will be further along than SWTOR was at launch. I can also tell you by the amount of fixes between betas the GW2 dev team knows what they are doing. Fixes take forever in this game and many times issues still arise. I don't know what it is about this game, I assume its the game engine, but it seems like fixing anything is an uphill battle. There are still so many stupid bugs in this game its just sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valgranth Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Slight lag: A minor hindrance to play. Servers down: A complete hindrance to play. Could they not have waited until night? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordLafarga Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 I got a server announcement 15 minutes before it went down on The Bastion... You guys have system msg's turned off in your chat channel or something? Sure as heck didn't get one a notice at all on my realm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalifus Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Would suck if the A/C's cooling the server room went down. The servers could be down for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkeeSkee Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 If they keep the servers down any longer, I'll be forced to go outside....which in this heat is near suicide. Balls in your court BW... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrMajestic Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 I thought it was all part of the new event. Temporal storms are sweeping the galaxy causing time to slow down. Imperial and Republic forces must band together to battle the dread Serverus Maximus Overloadus, before all time comes to a halt causing an implosion that will destroy all existence. And we lost.
