I would be overjoyed. I find it doubtful however.

I don't remember a Thursday release, and I don't think the pre-download has been done, unless I missed it.

When is the server list merger supposed to be?

The Devs have been awful quiet this week... I'm just saying.

It couldn't be, though. Could it?

By the end of summer, they said, so it's very unlikely to be that.

There have been 2 Thursday issue releases... Issue 2 and Issue 6.

Issue 2 is often mistakenly said to have been released on Friday, but it was Thursday, and its bugs and resultant weekend work for the support staff are often cited as reasons they don't usually release issues so late in the week.

Issue 6 was released on a Thursday to coincide with the 3-day headstart for City of Villains.

Six hours is an awfully long time. It does seem too soon for I20, but who knows?

Click the time link on the announcement and it takes you to a webpage that lists other cities. Pick your city from there.

I'm more concerned that this is one of those server maintenance periods where the forums magically collapse at the same time.

I will assume it's just the pre-download for i20 (all art assets/etc...) but not i20 going live.

The launcher is capable of pre-downloads, I've seen them done for another NCSoft game on the launcher. Not sure if they've worked out that functionality with CoH yet, though.

The new launcher seems to do pre-downloads and automatic patching since I have yet to need to patch the Beta or Test servers.

Interesting that this is happening the morning of the big developer team USTREAM event.

Dear EU_Damz,

Even though they said the server list merger wasn't coming until much later...

I'm going to say that this downtime is entirely due to that and you damned non-NA account holders and your silly hats!

What... some of you do wear silly hats...
What?? NA account holders wear silly hats as well???
Maybe they do...
But they're not to blame for this server downtime... unlike you rotten, no-good, dirty, low down, EU account holding peoples!!


* this post does not contain a serious comment within it... possibly excluding this one... the previous one, I mean... well, two... no THREE previous comments before this one.

Have they ever scheduled a 6 hour window for a pre-download before? I saw i19.5 had a 2 hour one scheduled the day it hit...

Well either way we wont know until 7pm tomorrow!

True there may not have been a 6 hour maintenance window before but..*shrugs*

I was really hoping to get the Partner badge on my main badger before i20 came out....only 14 more WSTs to go

Nope, no Issue 20, no Global Server Access and, sadly, no free punch and pie for everyone tomorrow.

We're just doing a bit of additional database maintenance which requires more time than normal.

OR ARE WE...



Yes, we really are
