Wednesday, August 26 - NCsoft Account Maintenance

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On Wednesday, August 26 2009, NCsoft Account Services will be brought down for maintenance. All NCsoft Account services will be unavailable at that time.

Planned Start: 6:30 AM Pacific Time (9:30 AM Eastern Time / 2:30 PM British Time / 15:30 Central European Time)
Planned Finish: 11:00 AM Pacific Time (2:00 PM Eastern Time / 7:00 PM British Time / 20:00 Central European Time)

You will be unable to access the following areas during the maintenance:

The NCsoft Store (to purchase items like the Booster packs for instance);

The City of Heroes Ingame Store (to purchase services or items like character transfers, renames, character slots or Respec tokens);

The NCsoft Account Management System (to manage, create, upgrade or re-activate your account for instance);

The creation of new Forum accounts (the use of existing Forum accounts will not however be affected).


We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience with this matter.

Please note that the live servers will still be accessible during this maintenance.

Now I will combine that with the following info:

Closing down the Issue 15 Open Beta forums

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In preparation for the Issue 16 Open Beta, the Issue 15 Open Beta forums will be deactivated this week. They will no longer be visible to you but they will remain accessible to us for reference.

Please use existing forums for any feedback or bug report you may have with regards to Issue 15.

We realise some of you were still using the Issue 15 Open Beta forums so don't hesitate to let me know if you need one of your threads moved to a different location. PM me and I'll take care of it.

Many thanks for your cooperation with this matter.

I may be grasping at straws, but these two separate events may be linked. In other words...

Issue 16 Open Beta Soon!

It is irrelevant if a player's renewal date is between August 15 and November 15. What is relevant is that players not let their subscriptions lapse during that time.

S/he means that since the account management will not be accessible, accounts can lapse during that time. Meaning they're out of GR beta.

Doubtful. I would think they would at least announce if it was in closed beta.

The I15 Open Beta forum closure obviously points to I16 OB soon.

But the NCSoft Store outage may be completely unrelated.

IIRC it's been stated in the past by a community redname (dodgy memory thinks it may have been Avatea) that the NCStore is common for all NC games and needs to be taken down to alter the inventory. So, if I'm remembering and reading it right, an outage to the NCStore and related systems could be nothing to do with changes to available CoX products/services.

That doesn't make sense though, since automated scheduled payments should be separate from the system being brought down. Unless I'm still missing something.

You are missing people who can't make automatically scheduled payments.

Whatever they are selling, if it is for City* I am buying.

I love this game.

This is like having Ra's Al Ghul show up at your birthday party.

Not only that. IF the system that does the automated payments goes down (for some reason), then that would mean that the system that does the account canceling would ALSO go down (since, y'know, it's the same system). So... there's really no chance of such an error happening.

Hm. Well, that is a point. However, such people should really apply the new game time card well before their old one runs out. Waiting until the last possible day is just asking for trouble.

Yes...their painting everything red, because red is better =P

R-o-g-u-e. Say it, Rogue.
Rouge is the French for red, as in Moulin Rouge. Comprende?

Seriously, I feel like leaning through the monitor and slapping people who have 'Rouge isles' in their biogs. It's been out for HOW long now, people?
Strewth XD

If you're gonna get ants in yer' pants for misspelling "rogue", you shouldn't misspell "they're". After all, "they're" has been around a lot longer than CoV.

Uh, he actually got the correct "their" in there. They're hard to tell apart, I know!
