Yes, servers are down. If you go to the main site, it was announced they would be down for about 8 hours.
"Live Server Upgrade - Friday, September 23, 2011 The Live European and North American City of Heroes servers will be taken offline for further hardware upgrades on Friday, September 23, 2011. Start Time: 3:30 a.m. PDT / 6:30 a.m. EDT / 11:30 a.m. BST / 12:30 CEST"

TY all. I went to that Forum earlier, but did not realize such a post would be "Sticky" so i skip down to the most recent posts and...miss it completely.
Now I know
Bah, that makes two days in a row where I'm unable to play.
Edit: Of course, having said that, the servers appear to be back up.
This is also useful

And I could have sworn that the admin message that popped up on chat right before they went down said 4 hours. Unless my memory is failing me in my old age, there have been af few times like that in the last couple of weeks were the scheduled length of downtime on the website was different than the scheduled length of downtime announced on chat right before the servers went down.

some servers showing up already (the big 3)
I wish that message would have been up a week ago when I scheduled to take time off to enjoy a little bit of free play time... I'm a little disappointed, but O'Well.... Guess I'll go spend my Points money on somthing else.

I notice that they make these notices a) rather small, and b) only allow the German and French language folks to comment.
What, not got the stones to let the English speakers complain too? Or, do the German and French speaking customers complain less?
Let me see... A typical German response to Freitags announcement would be:
Quote:
You should compensate us for this... A double exp weekend would nice for us EU folks... We don't spend THAT MUCH money here.. This isn't winning you many customers...Other than the double exp weekend, some Paragon Points or something...|

Freitag, frag doch mal nach, wie es für uns Europäer mit einem Doppel-XP-WE als Entschädigung für die ganze downtime aussieht. Wir zahlen hier viel Geld können aber nicht spielen. So gewinnt man keine Kunden und halten ist da auch schwer. Oder wenn kein Doppel-XP-WE dann halt ein paar Paragon Points oder irgendwas. |
Gee, sounds JUST like the English speakers...
(sorry, I don't speak French, so, can't say for sure what Avatea told them)

No. It seems the German players are just asking for an ingame perk where the English speaking whiners are demanding financial restitution.|

It could be that 4 hours IS what the techies told Z and co. Z mentioned for the "12 hour downtime" that the OCR does not give US the techie's ETA, but adds time to it.

Anyone know why the servers are down atm?
And is there any place i can go, on a regular basis, where the devs post *why* servers are down with any sort of an estimate?
Because of the frequency of the down time over the last month, I've really been trying to find a reliable source for this basic info and so far, nothing. When I go to the "Server STATUS" link it tells me about "Regular Maintenance" on THURS. That's all. When I go to NEWS and Announcements forum, there is also nothing mentioned. What am i missing?
Thanks for your help.
