Chocobos are coming in 1.19, so it's definitely not that. If anything is added, it will be the summer event.

Some quick bug fixes to 1.18.

No apology for the inconvenience?

:p

It's not even on the front page of the lodestone yet.

it is for account services...so I doubt it will be bug fixes for the NUMEROUS bugs from 1.18

while someone is praying the maintenance will make him beat the Ogre boss....

I wasn't complaining, I was poking fun at how, even when a maintenance finished early, they always "apologize for the inconvenience"

Wait, what.

You're looking for an apology for a maintenance period that they announced well over a week ago?

Here's your apology: Deal with it.

What about... Account Management System Maintenance? That's what the title says =)

I'm expecting nothing, but if something is gonna come I'll eat my Swiss cheese earlier.

I wasn't trolling at all. I was simply making a reply to your whine.

Read the post without the smiley. No need for name calling, you just make yourself look childish.


Furthermore, read my post history. You honestly think I'm a troll?

They could be doing a few things during this time, heck while working on the "Account managment blah blah" they could be cranking the bandwidth for the servers up a bit to help with the random dropped connections.

But that's not trolling at all. That's just missing a post. Why does everyone on this forum toss the word troll around so much? Good god.

*also puts on sunglasses* YEAH! WHAT HE SAID!

It's not the fact that you "Missed a post"

It's the fact that you yelled at an innocent bystandard, talking as if you were better-- as if you had some right to judge

It does when you're alt-tabbing from the game and reading the forum in between.

Get over it already and move on.

Care for some nuts? I guess you’ll be chucked full of nuts in just a few minutes.

I'm expecting a few bug fixes and possibly some minor tweaks to class balance.

Guys, seriously... Let's give it a rest. Mmmmk?

Actually this is purely a server update to my knowledge as FFXI is also under going maintenance during this time.

FFXI's notice:
http://www.playonline.com/ff11us/pol...ews20933.shtml

FFXIV's notice:
http://lodestone.finalfantasyxiv.com...2eca224de6ed8b

So yeah, just some server updates (maybe they will sneak the summer event in there as well? I do know--if you don't play/follow XI's information--that they are dropping the PlayOnline servers and making everyone switch over to Square-Enix Account systems so this could be the reason why both the games are going down for the same exact time period)

Case solved? Mayhaps.

Watch them ninja this in there:
"Fixed an issue where SP was lower than intended"
SE, please don't think you're being sneaky.

I think it's probably related to the account management system though.

It was announced a week ago. It's maintenance on the account services.

Announcement 1
Announcement 2
