Server Downtime

ALL servers are still down, although they were supposed to be up 40+ minutes ago. I did start up the game about 30 minutes ago, and it started a BIG (100+ Meg) download, and is now patching the game. I hope this fixes the crashes!

Avatea's announcement indicates that they know they're running late, but expect it to end soon, and will keep us updated.

I know about the announcement. However, I have already downloaded the patch and installed it. Now, I'm doing a Verify All Files since there is no announcement of a patch.

EDIT - All files verified.

So I guess there is a patch....

Except for that whole "Here's a hotfix" in the actual announcement Generally indicating a patch :P




We'll see....

Yup. Hotfixing the game usually requires a patch, unless the issue is purely server-side, which it rarely is.

When stuff like this happens, they should tack on a day to your subscription.

Nope. when u agreed to logging in and playing the game, it says you don't get any kind of reparations for down time, planned or unexpected. :P

Aww, give them a break. They are probably stressing out and panicking right now, doing their best to bring our game back.

Forums seem to be having issues too, I got three "connection to server has been reset" messages just in trying to get to this thread (along with yet another forced forum logout).
