Extended maintenance = Early GR?
For some reason, my updater just shows 2.5 MB when I start it, and it refuses to verify or apply the patch

Dec out.
Account (Put Name Here) is not allowed on this server. reason: Access to this server is currently restricted for internal testing by NCsoft employees to verify todays maintenance. Your access will be restored to this server once our checks and tests are complete. Thank you for your patience.

Does NOT necessarily mean that GR will be activating today, only that they're taking care of the groundwork.
Thanks for telling us about something that happens every time a major patch goes onto a server (QA ensures server stability before opening the server to the public).

I think that's the main point they had, that there was a change, not that this was something that had never happened before.

why dont we all just go down the pub and have a beer, or, tidy our rooms, or do something non coh related and let the devs do whatever they have to do. All these issues and assumptions are just that until such time as we can actually get back past the login screen, and theres nothing we can do about it!
As my missus sometimes says, "just sit back, relax and enjoy" - and that happens about as often as a major 5 hour maintenance window.
Peace all - hope to see you all ingame real soon!
Get away from that computer once in a while!
Opinions are like bottoms, we all have one, and they usually stink.
Peace.

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

Anyone who thinks GR will launch early, given that people using the market aren't expecting it to go live until tomorrow, given that retailers won't be selling boxes until tomorrow, etc., is probably a tad delusional. You'd piss a lot of people off.
Move along, nothing to see here <Directs people towards the pub>
HAHAHA
Ok, the beers are on me but by the time you get to Austria where I live, the pubs will all be closed.
At least no one has started demanding a double exp weekend as compensation for lost play time yet - (starts to countdown from 10 to 1)

I've already got everything I had in WWs out by now.
Sometimes it pays to use brains. Sometimes.

When I preordered City of Villains, I got a three-day head start. For the entire game, I might add. I fail to see why those who pre-purchased can't get a head start today. Not to mention the fact that they could simply list Going Rogue on the PlayNC store as they said they would either way.
At the end of the day, I'd rather have it all done today, than having to sit on my hands all day tomorrow, too. I'm off work, people!

i dunno. GR could go live a day early.
City of Villians had a 3 days head start for pre-orders if i recall correctly.
though that was advertised as being a bonus as well.
Oh, I have no illusions myself. Of course it goes live tomorrow. I'm just amusing myself until it comes back up and I can simply play again.
Dec out.
Define "a lot." Because "a lot" of people pre-purchased Going Rogue and, technically, already own it. A lot of people would, therefore, be very happy if it launched today, rather than tomorrow. And why would anyone be unhappy, really? Because other people got to try the game first when they bought first? Are we back to happiness being drawn from other people NOT having stuff?

For example I put about 250 bids on recipes last night hoping to get as many as possible and then take down all the bids later tonight. I also have yet to document everything I bid on so if everything got pulled a day early it would cause a lot of confusion for me.
That being said, I would gladly deal with the confusion if it meant I could play GR a day early. But I'm sure there are some people out there who wouldn't feel the same way.
