5 hour emergency maintenance with 10 minutes notice...

[ufufu]

Have fun with your 90ks then, because I have never seen one in an instance, the only time I see one is if there is an issue on my end, or just today in the post-maintenance rush.

Explain that one for me please.

Hahahahahha.

lol really? Are you sure you want your name next to that post?

Seems your logic goes something like this then:


It works for me. So it's clearly not an issue on SE's end.


This is about what you're getting at is it? I mean, it's not what you said word for word, but clearly what you're implying.

Apparently you weren't logged in NA prime time the past 2 nights where there were mass 90ks of people in instances then on Hyperion. Multiple teams in my FC have been getting booted on Monday nights (i.e entire team at same time).

I'm not going to bother any more. Please read. Lots of helpful posts in these besides what I linked.

I remember people complaining about emergency maintenances not beeing emergency maintenances if they don't happen suddenly ^^

You should never have a job in QA. In my line of work, ONE mistake in QA means I lose my job, my certification to ever do my job again, and I will probably end up in jail for negligence.

While this isn't life or death, you are totally correct in saying this screams of a problem with QA.

I've tested many things in a test environment and it checked out under test circumstance, but once rolled out, people found something wrong with it and it had to be revised. It's just how it is.

MMOs ALL have a weekly maintenance window which is usually 2 hours long. Patches and updates usually happen within this window and they usually extend the window by 2 hours. This is common and makes sense. 25 hours since Feb 18th. That is a problem and in ANY environment withing any company anywhere, this would be a huge problem. So saying "It's just how it is" is incorrect. It isn't how it is.

Some of you need to let us complain in peace please.
If you don't care about this 5 hours long maintenance then fine, go do something else.
They can't do a proper update without adding more bugs. This one might even add some more...
I'm sure lots of people have an exemple to demonstrate how this game is poorly coded.
Lots of content have recurring bugs and they couldn't care less.
If things had been done properly by competent people from the beginning, we wouldn't need that much maintenance.
If this game wasn't a Final fantasy, I would have been long gone.

Complaining out of one side of your mouth about issues and then the other side of your mouth when SE tries to fix said issues (i.e. via emergency maintenance) kinda makes you a hypocrite.

Just sayin'.

Just as you have the right to complain we have the right to let them know we appreciate their hard work. We also have the right to let them know we think some people are over reacting. Your opinions are the only ones, nor are they the only ones that matter.

Nuclear power. That whole "one mistake and people can't live within 50 miles for a long time" thing makes people uncomfortable when you say "oops."

Sounds like there is a big difference between a gaming company and nuclear power. I'm pretty sure we are capable of understanding how irrelevant the life and death situation of nuclear power is to gaming, and I'm sure we have the ability to put that into the correct perspective.
