Maintenance this week (June 17-19)

[Rodric]

In the Information section of this forum, the scheduled maintenance for NA is described as taking 3 hours from 11pm to 2am (Pacific time) starting Wednesday night and concluding Thursday morning. June 17-June 18, 2015.

On the login screen, the listed time is 24 hours, starting Wednesday/Thursday night at 2am and ending Thursday/Friday night at 2am (Pacific time). June 18 to June 19, 2015.

I'm new here and trying to plan my game time this week. Given this conflict, what do you vents think is actually going to happen here?

Thanks

The thread here:

http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...-17-Jun.-18%29

lists forum maintenance for three hours. The other is game world maintenance to implement Heavensward content which will take 24 hours.

Only the forum maintenance takes 3 hours, the game itself will be down for a whole day till Friday morning!

I paid for 30 days, but I bet they're not going to give me that day back either, huh?

Nope. Maintenance downtime is expected. If it went down because the servers crashed or some other disaster then maybe they'd give a free day or two to compensate.

Welcome to MMOs. Maintenance is to be expected. Hell, even Blizzard has downtime for Battle.net.
