So, I'm happy to give up some time without knowing exactly why it is happening simply to be able to physically play the game at all. Thanks devs, thank you for caring enough about the quality of play to take an hour to fix something that is obviously a big enough issue rather than letting everyone suffer through the problems! I <3 CoH devs  |

Awe man, there goes all my fun. Now I guess I have to go and do something else, like play CoH.
I did get to use the restroom though. I am much healthier now. Much.

Yup. appears to have been associated with the latency issues on the base instance server. which may have effected other instancing somewhere, I don't know. However, I can guess that if they came out and said that they were fixing a latency issue on the base instance server the hollering would have been just as loud, just differently directed.

Newsflash, my fellow fleeced one, anyone who partakes in such trivial escapism as playing an MMO is a sheeple. Those who lead are too busy doing so to bother with such childishness.
Back in the pen. There's useless constructs of an escapist society begging for your attention in game.

Plus if they told us what the problem was now, after the server was down, there would no risk of us using an exploit they were patching or what-not is there.. It just shows a lack of respect for the paying customer that the servers get brought down during the 2xp weekend with No Explanation. "Maintenance" is not an explanation. That happens every week during the early morning hours, not during prime play hours during an event! Add to it, that this is an even that has been rescheduled already due to Maintenance, and you get a fan base that is fairly upset, and I am not the only one. The whole team I was on is very upset. We were all actively cursing when the red-letter announcement came over the chat window. Please sate our desire for an event to be un-marred by reschedules and maintenance. |
a generic "We are fixing a server stability issue" or
"We are using the servers to update our EDating profiles" or even
" we are using the server room for wild monkey sex and the fans bother us"
would work fine for an explanation.
then we can discuss the pros and cons of wild verses tame monkeys.
cmon, made you smile a little bit...

Pretty much an admission that they're real, unless the dev be trollololololing us by putting them in their for their EVIL ways! |
I find your lack of signature disturbing.
Today, in this thread, I learned that if you can't play a video game for an hour or so, you should be enraged beyond the point of reason. If you are not, you are a sheeple.

You think that's bad? Just recently, I dropped my phone company (AT&T) to switch to a VoIP service. AT&T combined my final bill with a credit for a partial month's refund. And sent me a $0.02 check.|

Yes... two freaking cents. I'm tempted just to frame it and hang it on the wall, due to the sheer absurdity!

How about buying less snacks for the devs and have someone on 3rd shift for tech support for when say Champion gets disconnected from the global chat/AE/gmail and instanced mission maps server...
