Do we get the day back?

The thing is, they DON'T put them out relatively quickly without many problems. WoW patch maintenance is about 6-8 hours at a time... but there will be repeated maintenance the next couple of weeks (and usually a few on off-days) along with random restarts/crashing issues... and STILL manages to be bug-riddled for months. I would far prefer a 24 hour solid downtime and few issues afterwards.

Lol.

I think we have nothing left to discuss, you're resorting to insults now ;P

I'm still waiting on that better argument. You're just feeding fuel to the fire at this point.

Or was that your intention in posting on this thread?

It did get a lot better over the years since then, but to claim that they are more swiftly pushing error-free patches (even after 10 years) is just silliness :P

Oh look, the same complaints on every single beeping major patch. Go outside. We been at this for years and nothing is gonna change.

Your only argument was to give me links about networking, in what I assume was an attempt to explain why it takes so long. Only that it doesn't take nearly as long in most other games as it does here, so you didn't prove anything except that some companies are better at handling it than others.

What is there for me to argue against?

The day I unsub from WoW is when the heavens sang to me: "PRAIIIIIIISE THEEEE LOOOOORD"

Well gee Idk. The arguments I presented that you blatantly ignored.

• The size of this patch.
• The amount of processes that can create bugs.
• The amount of time it takes to check for bugs, despite a program doing this at an amazing speed for hours.

If your class said anything about how a MMORPG works. It's waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more than just networking.

lol I'm on Gilgamesh, going to have to move to a low populated world just to play the game.

Better make sure to leave Aether completely, because the combined congestion of Gilgamesh and Balmung will crash the entire data center--again.

I recall XIV having a series of maintenances every week for a while after HW, and server problems definitely aren't unheard of here. XIV has bouts of weekly maintenance in between major patches somewhat often as well. And WoW's small patches ARE usually 1 hour vs the 3 hours XIV has. You can actually find that info online, in archives and such.

1)I didn't have any connection or buggy issues after HW. That's not to say other people didn't, however it was not an issue across the board. Maintenance/restarts/downtime affects all servers on WoW.

2) There are -no- maintenances that is 1 hour. 1 hour is simply for restarts and occur with the addition of *no* content at all, any content patches are far longer.

*hands you 51 cents* there, all better

This should have ended the thread.

I-If only it was that easy to end those threads.

-Look at the healer dps thread- Clefto did you manage to burn that thread yet?

This is more simpler and on point.

Sorry were you trying to say something?
