It's going down this Monday http://www.playonline.com/ff11us/pol...ews21043.shtml
1:30 downtime what? Thanks test server, I guess?![]()

Looking at this, they're actually giving us what they promised.
I think the length of the update (90 minutes) shows us how little new content this update will contain.
Wouldn't worry, 90 minutes is probably optimistic. Can't remember the last time the servers were actually back up on time following a major update or taken back down an hour later due to game breaking bugs (99,999 cures etc.)
I think the length of the update shows undaunted and undying optimism on the part of SE's staff. "There won't be an extension THIS time, in spite of what has happened nine out of ten times, no sir!"
The time the servers are down has absolutely zero to do with the contents of the update. Both on the server and on the client, its just a software patch. The reason maintenance usually take hours is because of the work they do that is not related to a patch of the game.
Why are people talking as if we don't know what's in the patch anyway? Anyone on the test server will know most of it, and the threads in the testing-in-progress section of the forums cover most of it.
