DisKorD Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 ....downtime is a major part of any mmo. Hardware/software changes/upgrades all happen then, not to mention necessary maintenance of all the databases that are required. Considering the servers are always full during launch, its a good thing that we have this downtime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobHouse Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 The game isn't live. Example, Stores that undergo "soft" openings are NOT really open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChicksDigHarleys Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 This is my 4th early access, and these servers have been down FAR less than my previous ones. FFS EVE has been running for years now and they have downtime EVERY DAY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thasri Posted December 19, 2011 Author Share Posted December 19, 2011 (edited) Then why are you complaining? Because I can? More or less. We may not be able to do any thing about it but I'm going to let them know I'm not happy about it. I'm not really sure why any one else isn't a little POed about it ether. Taking the server down right in the middle of prime time play is a bit much. I could see a 3am to 6am deal but 6pm to 11pm? Really?

Probably some kind of patch too. From then on it will be regular maint on tuesday mornings off peak time.

And we can only hope that's the case. http://www.swtor.com/blog/scheduled-maintenance-periods-between-december-15-and-december-22 This maintenance is expected to complete before 11PM CST, and will mark the end of Early Game Access for Star Wars™: The Old Republic™. Generally speaking we are aiming to limit our scheduled maintenance period to once a week, on Tuesdays. We are aiming for this weekly maintenance period to take place in an off-peak time for both North American and European players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HopeSlayer Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Well, the US servers are here, the UK and European servers I could care less about. As others have stated, your not a paying customer yet. Bioware is under no legal obligation in any manner to give you early access to their product. You and many others feel entitled to something because you have made an intial purchase, thing is you made that intial purchase with full disclosure of the games offical release date, Bioware is indebted nothing in this regard until said launch date. They could yank the servers down right now and there wouldnt be a thing you or I could do about it, they could have cancelled early access and the same applies. TL'DR: You are not a subscription holder...yet, they need to do things to prepare for the "Offical" launch, you have to deal with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tsenng Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Argh why post this when the launch is not until tomorrow! come back after the 20th..stop posting complaints about things when we aint even officially launched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dayln Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Fanbois relax as we go into full launch the game will be up more often and as the build and servers stablize there will be less downtime. This is all very very normal for a launch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Predarek Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Also not only that they are doing maintenance, but they are also patching the game almost each time which is a pretty good sign. Personally I'd rather get 2-3 small maintenance a week rather than a long one and getting faster bug fixes in the early days of an MMO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
