All na/eu down ;/

ZzzzzzzzzzzzzZZ

Dreams of Hydaelyn

I was doing those boring repetitive guildleves anyway.

Yep nap time for work tonight! ;)

Well I only just got online... and kicked.

Early access is great...

The post about it on lodestone says different times than the post here on the forums, and I was out at the time, so.. have they been down just an hour or two hours already?

Pretty much this.

Also to the people crying no warning: There were several server wide system messages sent out before hand... it's good to check your chat logs occasionally.

While I know these kind of hiccups are unavoidable with an MMO launch... that doesn't necessarily make it OK. These kind of things are OK when the game is in beta... not when the game goes live (which, technically, it has since Early Access was promoted as an incentive for preordering). The difference between beta and live?

Beta = Connection issues means suck it up... it's still in testing.
Live = Connection issues means upset customers and bad PR.

S-E needs to get the NA/EU datacenters up to snuff and fast. It's not instant gratification and it's not customer entitlement. It's common sense. Game reviewers are most likely reviewing the game at this point. It would be a very bad omen if, when reviews started popping up on respected (more or less...) gaming sites, there were mentions of localized connection issues that necessitated server outages. You think customers are harsh? Reviewers make even the most self-entitled customer look like a reincarnated saint in comparison.

That or upgrade from a US hamster running the server wheel to a Canadian moose...

More and More problems just seem to keep happening. it does not feel like a released game to me, still feels very much in beta.

I havn't paid for anything since 1.0 to attain Legacy status... But the fact remains that I have early access, and there's a 3 hour downtime. Totally not cool SE, totally not cool.
I understand it's rare for a MMO to release w/o having some kind of problem, but 3 hours? And the JP servers are JUST PERFECTLY FINE?! They're trying to kill us..
