Weekend Maintenance is BAD

[Tazytiggy]

Wednesday is a good day, or even Tuesday but on the weekends really? Wouldn't it make more sense to check the number of people logged in at any given time/day find the least busy time and make that maintenance time. I know the game is new, but I also know there was a beta testing period, and so many maintenance's I've lost count. I just want to play my game. I waited for the game to come back, I waited for the tiny window to beta test. I wait in line to play on a legacy server, we wait and wait and wait when does it stop?

The maintenance is for server instability. Last few hours have had servers mass-disconnecting about 80% of the players repeatedly.

But yeah, don't know why they didn't do it last night alongside the JPN datacenter.

...maybe they only have one repair team that gets shipped across the world every night.

1 AM on a Friday counts as the weekend now?

It's friday night for some of us, so yeah, I guess it IS the weekend. I do see how it is frustrating, but the truth is, if the servers need maintenance then just go ahead and fix stuff, I would rather wait a few hours then come back and not be disconnected every 5 mins. But I guess as one of the players who experiences those difficulties, I have a different view.

OP. Do you want the server maintenance times from the release version back? I don't think you do.

Prime time maintenance? No thank you. 1AM PST Maintenance is so much better than 7PM PST Maintenance...

Plus, the maintenance today was actually NEEDED. Servers were crashing constantly. Do you want that?

If your weekend starts on thursday its your fault.

Rather have maintenance and game playable and somewhat stable during the weeks. At least show there fixing the servers. Sucks for now since the game still new in mmos terms and there still trying get there data centers iron out. Unlike some games were used to playing at one time they used have same issues. This game they were unable to expect the demand had no cash to gamble that the game would be as big of a hit as it became. Do to the failure of 1.0 So the data center structure just seemed overwhelmed and outdated. IF read there plans for the 16-17th game outage it makes sense. Once the new hardware comes in i bet we will see a more structure outages in a month. To plan your days,nights and work schedules around.

I honestly don't know how a server maintenance team is setup or if they have to be on site, but if they do wouldn't that mean the maintenance can only happen during business hours in the area of the servers?
