Hope this is sorted soon.

Seconed time in a row server upgrades have been followed by servers not working.

The EU status has never shown them correctly in the last 4 years

maybe one day an upgrade will actually improve the servers! we should get Double Experience this weekend to make up for the lack of servers, who is with me!

I'm sure it wasn't my fault, even though I literally just got back online after waiting 4 weeks(!) for my internet to be restored since moving house and the servers unexpectedly going down in under a minute of me logging ingame after 37 days of inactivity

... Honest!

This seems to be effecting UK Peak time somewhat excessively!
Appreciate that the servers need maintainance and upgrading. However wiping them out what feels like once a week (I am sure it is not that bad though) is becoming a touch annoying. I certainly don't feel like a VIP player at the moment as I would say we are not getting VIP service before the change to I21 and COH freedom.

Im sadly inclined to agree, seems that the servers go down here every time I get some time off to enjoy myself. How come they dont go down in the middle of the day in the US! Kinda seems like we are just extra's over here and we just have to like or lump when the servers work latley..

On a side note, Logged into freedom the other day and ... well... the graphics are amazing... but surely all that detail will fry some peoples computers! I was lagging in the Tutorial! yet not a glitch lately on ITF Lag hill lol!

tbh, like others have posted, its not so much the fact the servers are down as stuff happens and they are working to make things better in the long run, its just the timing sucks,lol

Combined with the maintaince, it was nearly a full day downtime.

Personaly the most annoying part was the fact initialy mostly EU players and early US players were online when they started parties on Pocket D. They started giving out random codes for costumes, but as time passed more and more US people came online.

Eventualy Avatea (who did a awsome job though, and she is shy on the webcam!) was doing a rock/paper/scissors match with a huge bunch of US players, maybe would give out few remaining EU codes afterwards. At 1am the US thingie was still going, its pretty lame that the 'few little good thingies for EU players' was overwhelmed with US players comming online.

I did enjoy the Ustream, but eventualy was way too much trashtalk going on.
