The gaming industry must be the only industry where Devs can consistently under-deliver yet keep their jobs. I know in my line of work (banking/finance) they'd be out on their ear if releases were this shoddy all the time.

 

But then again, it's only gamers, they won't care. They've already got our money!

 

Imagine if this game got it's yearly budget based on a meeting between the Head Developer and all the subscribers. They'd be running on a shoe string! (I think they already are to be honest!)

no ETA on servers? if my boss gave me a task and then asked how long it would take to finish and i told him "no ETA on that," he'd fire me.

 

Actually, even in the event of a catastrophic failure (physical damage to infrastructure, malicious code, license running out (it happens), other event causing a failure in services to downrange customers, we always had a timeline. Our initial response is, "We think it's X, and the soldiers are working on it". (Granted we had redundancy, but some areas had SPOF (Single Point of Failure), and thus contingency plans were enacted.

 

You are correct however, in that if I responded with, "We don't know what it is or how long", or worse - radio silent (Not answering emails or phone calls), well, that's not how we do business.

So when the game was supposed to release a couple of months ago, they stated they needed more time to work everything out and that for sure the game would release today as scheduled. Now here we are and there's no expected time when this maintenance will end. So basically, the game will not be released today as promised.

Well they are late, they owe us money!!! as of 33 min late they owe us 1 us cent they better pay up.

Amout due me $.01:mad:

 

lol for me it's not that big a deal, i just want them to inform the new ppl before they get all mad, put it in the login msg. with the changes they are making we gonna want them to wanna stay. It'd help if the devs did less things to annoy like giving them a maintenance timeline that's already passed making em hunt for info, just be upfront.

Server status says servers are up?

 

https://www.swtor.com/server-status

 

Maybe "up" but LOCKED for public ? ( i haven't tried logging in yet myself)

 

In the meantime, i go watch the new *trailer* again: https://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=1001273 ( it's actually very well done , imo )

 

****edit UPDATE:
