nabcobra Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I'm in Texas so I'm not certain, but has California finally fallen off the continental shelf? I heard that hey did have a major earthquake early this morning but I have not confirmed that anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammar Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 There was a planned shutdown, but they cancelled it. Then they had an unscheduled shutdown, gave people in the Forums about 5 minutes of warning, but gave no warning to the people in-game. The excuse they offered for not warning people in-game was pretty thin, frankly. You can always post "3 minutes to shutdown" if you know 5 minutes in advance that you are going to shut down. That they did not post such a warning is a sign of incompetence. Thoughtlessness, maybe, but hardly incompetence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zyrious Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 (edited) LOL, thanks for the attack. It appears that growing up is what you need to do. I have an opinion. You don't like it, fine. Deal with it. To be fair your own post was an attack on the authors that many people here are fans of. You don't appreciate/like the books, that's fine. However i find your opinion of writers for established IP's as unfounded and unwarranted, there are many, many talented writers who have written excellent pieces of work for pre-established IP's, including those listed by the person you quoted. You may not like much of the Star Wars EU, there are parts i don't like (NJO series i'm not the biggest fan of, and Karen Travis' work), but that doesn't mean the writers are uncreative hacks. There's plenty of very creative talent and excellent, popular works in the EU. Edited September 3, 2014 by Zyrious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fractal_Eye Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 There WERE problems happening on the other servers.

tonycolla Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 You wanna know what's REALLY frustrating me? What's REALLY frustrating me is that it's slow enough at work today that I can actually play! And can't! LMAO!! That means I'm actually having to... you know... find stuff to do. Like... paperwork and stuff. BLEAH!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HooverGKMMC Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I heard that hey did have a major earthquake early this morning but I have not confirmed that anywhere. Why didn't the devs warn us 5 minutes ahead of time???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fexus Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I don't suffer, I don't have to listen to them complain anymore. Less customers -> less money for Bioware -> less resources to maintain and develop new content -> worse game experience for everyone. This is high school level business stuff.

Exdarthstorm Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 (edited) I heard that hey did have a major earthquake early this morning but I have not confirmed that anywhere. "An earthquake hit today in Southern California, jolting residents in San Jacinto and Hemet in particular. The 3.7 magnitude quake hit at about 7:39 p.m. PDT, followed by a 2.9 magnitude aftershock, reported the U.S. Geological Survey." - 9/2/14 - so it was yesterday AKA - just a slight rumble... and as far as I know i'm not swimming yet, so Cali is all good Edited September 3, 2014 by Exdarthstorm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IREFUTETHEE Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 LOL, thanks for the attack. It appears that growing up is what you need to do. I have an opinion. You don't like it, fine. Deal with it. Lmao, Attack? Wow you are pretty defensive and self centered. I was making the point about why authors choose to write under existing IP's and why it is not the same as half-assed fan fictions that exist just because someone has a fetish yet somehow you garnered an attack from that? I think we can see who really needs to grow up in this endeavor lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HooverGKMMC Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Less customers -> less money for Bioware -> less resources to maintain and develop new content -> worse game experience for everyone. This is high school level business stuff. Pretty sure (although not certain) that the majority of the expense isn't in the development, but the costs associated with running a data center. If I am correct, then fewer subscribers would mean fewer servers needed, less power consumption, less bandwidth utilized, lower expenses overall, meaning more money that could be put in development (at least down to a certain point) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zerokronos Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I wonder if this is gonna be like having a ridiculous wait time at Taco Bell and then when you get your bag to leave they say "We apologize for the wait, so we added free cinnamon twists". Not that we need more free stuff, but there's no way they are going to have us wait three plus hours and only get a "sorry guys" in response... right???
