Patch Maintenance?

Just checked the Lodestone and i see no notice for maintenance on 31/10/2016 - 1/11/2016 to coincide with the launch of patch 3.45 nor is there any in game notice for same. As these are normally posted prior to the start of the weekend in Japan I am wondering if someone has seen something concerning this and I just missed it or what. Thank You

I keep forgetting that the rst of the world goes by DD/MM/YY whereas we go by MM/DD/YY

But YYYY/MM/DD is so much better for lexicographical sorting.

I will say it again, it is now the weekend in Japan; The announcements come from Japan to the individual regions. So, unless there is a reason for withholding the information til tomorrow then we will not get anything til Monday which will leave us less then a day to plan our playing schedule. We usually have this information 5-7 days prior to the maintenance which normally starts on a Monday night. A Dev clarification would be nice.

I doubt it will be much more than the usual 4h frame, so hold your panties. "Plan your playing schedule" sounds pretty sad, I feel sorry for you if you have nothing else :(

This patch has Anima Relic upgrades and PotD floor additions. When was the last time this happened without a server shutdown....never in my memory. Maintenance normally starts @ 1200AM PDT but not always. Also for how long? Would be nice if the Community Team or Devs could give us official word. Also remember that the initial Topics post kept saying 11 Nov not 1 Nov as it now shows. Confusion reigns supreme

This is a standard post. They just change the dates to keep up with the calendar. Your last 3 words are whats important.

I went back and double checked the Lodestone. The only announcements for maintenance made on the weekend were for priority Hot Fixes and Emergency Maintenance. We normally got a weeks notice for standard patch implementation. We can speculate all we want but with SE's documented history official word from the Community Team is needed. I understand that many think that I am worrying about a trivial matter but this runs contrary to SE's standard practice of keeping us informed on these matters that it concerns me. Sorry if that offends people.

3.25 (another .X5 patch) was only 2 days notice.

3 days notice for 3.05
http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodest...6661f835a16de5

.X5 patches may bring new things but are still not as important as .X0 patches
