I was playing early this morning when the admin maintenance posted the 30 min server shut down & it was to end the double xp. I was under the impression that Zwill had turned it on til the end for us.

The Admin message explicitly said it was to turn off Double XP?

Probably NCsoft giving one more **** you to the community, before they boot us off and close the game down.

Did they turn on another event? In my old age, I fuzzily remember comments that only one event can be run at a time. Is Double-XP coded as an event?

The message said server maintenance to end double xp.

Noooooooooo.

I was enjoying that, dangit.


Having Vengeance and Fallout slotted for recharge means never having to say you're sorry.

Why turn it off? That seems weird.

I choose to see this as a good sign. Yes, I know I'm being naive.

It was never announced to start with, and it was never announced it was ending. Weird.

Zwill "announced" it in the last Coffee Talk, saying he was gonna try to get the server guys to turn on Double XP and as many events as they could.

Can Dxp work the same time as another event? I want to believe that it shutting down may be a good sign, but the realist in me wonders if maybe it needed to shut down for the next event to start.


Thanks to everyone that helped make me a welcomed part of the community, and for giving me over 3 years of some of the best gaming I've been able to take part in. May the next game bring many friendships and maybe reconnect to some old CoH friends.

It's only run for a weekend at a time before. Is it possible it's coded to only run for short blocks of time?

This is what I was thinking. Maybe its coded to only run until Monday mainten-...hang on, whose doing maintence? Anyway, back to what I was saying, maybe its purposefully limited just in case some one forgets to 'push the button' as it were.

Pretty sure that NCSoft-Austin is in charge of server maintenance.


Be well, people of CoH.

They mentioned in coffee talk that there is still a team from their US technical team keeping the servers up otherwise they would grind to a halt.


Frankie says it best.

Anyone test it to see if it was shut off? Is your patrol xp getting pushed forward? etc

EDIT: confirmed myself - it is turned off

I understood it to be a weekend event, just like before..
