Yea, but this is a major patch. This isn't a hot fix maintenence or a small patch.

Doesnt matter. They knew they would have to do a 24hour maintenance when they announced the patch date. So they should have announced that long downtime too.

Another patch maintenance, another person whining about said maintenance. SE posted the time and date for 3.1 ages ago as Hyouretsuzan stated - it's up to you to actually take proper notice of it and read it carefully. This patch is adding a whole new area to the game so that alone explains the longer downtime.

Besides, if you're so narky about this situation, refer to the Terms of Service you agreed to when you signed up for the game - amongst other things it states that they reserve the right to take the game down for maintenance at any time without warning or compensation to you the player. Legally, SE are under no obligation to even tell you when they're taking it down.

No FFXIV a whole day? How are we going to survive? It means we have to go outside and meet people and do things..........omg terrible.

24 hour maint is normal for large patches.

nothing new. try a different game maybe?

yeah like we're all supposed to remember a major patch is 24 hours maintenance, when was the last major patch again? 2.5 in 2014? they warned us a week in advance for the 24 hours downtime before HW, they should've done the same here instead of a 48 hours warning, gonna have to stay in-game all week-end to feed fertilizer every hour to MAYBE have all my plants grown before server downtime, that's why i'm pissed and that's why we should have an earlier warning for long maintenance time.
